$10,500 Eight-Max NLHE Begins at 1:00 pm

While the big opening event will be playing their Day 2 down from 614 players to the final table, there will also be a single-day $10,500 Eight-Max No-Limit Hold’em event that begins at the same time — 1:00 pm PST.

Players begin with 100,000 in chips, and the opening blinds will be 500-1,000 with a big blind ante of 1,000.

The first six levels will be 30 minutes each, and registration remains open with unlimited re-entries until the start of Level 7 (around 4:30 pm). Once registration closes, levels will increase to 40 minutes for the rest of the way, and they will be playing down to a winner tonight.

The 30-second Action Clock will be in play from the start of the event, and players begin with six Time Chips to extend their time. When there are six players remaining, players will receive six additional Time Chips.
