Action is back underway in Flight A and we closed the books on the opening session with an unofficial 497 entries. Tournament staff are adding it up and we will report the numbers when they are official.

The Event 1 field got a little tougher after the first break with the introduction of some top talent. Among those taking a seat, we found Jeremy Becker seated next to Joe McKeehen. Dyanna Lopez, AJ Kelsall, Rob Brown, Loni Hui, and Noah Schwartz also joined the field and we are looking at a great group of players.
