The last two starting flights of the 2024 Pokerstars North American Poker Tour (NAPT) $5,300 Main Event take place today here at Resort’s World Las Vegas. Day 1b, which started at 11 a.m., is already underway while the turbo Day 1c flight begins at 6 p.m. local time.

Yesterday’s Day 1a starting flight attracted 276 entrants, with 73 players finding a bag by the night's end. All players from Day 1b and Day 1c will be trying to replicate the success of Bin Weng, who bagged the chip lead on Day 1a after finishing with 359,000, a stack worth over 200 big blinds going into Day 2.

Other notables who advanced from Day 1a include Jeremy Ausmus, Dan Sepiol, Patrick Leonard, Brian Altman, Farah Galfond, David "ODB" Baker, Matthew Salsberg and Griffin Benger.

Players will begin with 30,000 chips and the blinds will start at 100/100 with a 100 big blind ante. The turbo flight will play ten 30-minute levels after which the remaining players will bag their chips and advance to Day 2. Just like the previous two starting flights, one re-entry is permitted for Day 1c.

The tournament has attracted 630 entrants so far at the time of writing, already surpassing the $3,000,000 guarantee. That number will continue to climb with late registration available until the start of Day 2.
