Today's Schedule
APPT President Danny McDonagh just announced that there will be a maximum of 12 levels played today, with an extended break after the eighth level. If a final table is reached before the end of the 12th level play will also conclude for the day.
McDonagh thinks we will get close to a final table tonight, and at least get a lot further down in the structure compared to last year when 23 players returned on the final day. With the extended break of about 30 minutes after the eighth level we're looking at a finishing time of around 1:00 a.m. local time.
For players in the event, the last level of the day will be 5,000/10,000 with a 1,000 ante. With 10 players in the last level of the day the average stack would be 48 big blinds, which is right on par with the current average.
