Season XV of the Heartland Poker Tour (HPT) continues today at 2 p.m. local time with the $1,650 buy-in Main Event Day 1b flight at Hollywood Casino in St. Louis, Missouri. Players will start with 30,000 in chips and play 15 40-minute levels with late registration and re-entry being available through the dinner break after Level 9.

Yesterday's Day 1a flight drew 47 runners, but after 15 levels of play, just 6 remained with 2019 bracelet winner of Event 37: $800 No-Limit Hold'em Deepstack Robert Mitchell and his stack of 418,000 leading the way. Mitchell is followed by Jeff Sauer with his stack of (365,000), followed by Alexander Hoff (200,000), Jeffery Schroeder (167,000), Christopher Moon (157,000), Jason Mangold (81,000), and Todd Sladek (49,000).

The surviving players from all starting flights will return for Day 2 action at noon on Sunday. The final table will then be live-streamed at noon on Monday, August 5.

“HPT is excited to have PokerNews providing additional event coverage in 2019,” said Korey Stewart, HPT Marketing Manager. “Season XV is shaping up to be another record-breaking year for the tour.

There will be plenty of opportunities for poker enthusiasts across the country to take a shot at winning life-changing money at nationally televised final tables.
