Just like yesterday's evening flight, play will consist of 30-minute levels. Players will start the day with 30,000 chips and one re-entry per flight is allowed. Late registration closes at the end of Level 10, which should come around 12:45 a.m. local time. The night will come to an end when only 15 percent of the starting field remains.
Day 2 levels start at the earliest final level from the Day 1 flights. For example, if five of the Day 1 flights finish at level 17 and one flight finishes during level 13, play will resume at level 13 on Friday.
