Flight E Entries:  750

Flight E continues to put up the big numbers with 750 in the game this afternoon with about 90 minutes remaining to push it higher. A $2,000,000 prize pool is almost assured and that would be a huge final number.

More friends took their seats including two-time Hollywood champ Valerie Novak (most recent during the 2023 LHPO series), Luz Sanchez, and former GPI Female Player of the Year Nadya Magnus.

The first break is complete and we’re mentioning Wagner Wysotchanski again, but this time as the chip leader and not the Flight D bubble. The Tampa regular is up to 107,100, followed closely by nearby competitor Bill Beer with 104,000.

The prize pool climbed over $1.5 million while they were gone and registration will remain open for Flight E until 2:30 pm. The last flight starts at 6 pm with late registration till 10:30 pm.

The first break is near and the 500+ entries packing the Grand Ballroom are about to empty into the hallway. They are closing on a $1.5 million prize pool and a cool $2 million is possible by the time registration closes this evening at 10:30 pm for Flight F.

A few more familiar faces include David Jackson, Tampa legend Fred Paradis, LHPO Event 1 champ Scott Woodring, and Wagner Wysotchanski.

Wysotchanski could be excused if he took some time off this morning but he’s back only a few hours after he stone-cold bubbled Flight D very very early this morning.
