Day 1b of the €300,000 guaranteed partypoker Grand Prix Killarney €340 Main Event at the INEC and Gleneagle Hotel gets underway at 2 p.m. today.
Yesterday saw 100 entries for Day 1a where local player Thomas Gallagher topped the leader board of the surviving 24 players by bagging 243,000.
Day 1b is likely to attract around 400 entries with many of those having won their seats online at partypoker with feeder satellites starting from as little as €2 with the dream of spinning it up into a mega payday.
Partypoker Ambassador Padraig Parkinson missed the target yesterday but has vowed to reload and fire a few more bullets in hopes of making it to Day 2.
The schedule is the same as yesterday with a 25,000 starting stack and 12 40-minute levels. There will be a 20-minute break after every three levels and a dinner break after level six. Late registration closes at the start of level seven. Players are permitted one re-entry per starting flight.
Today also sees a Turbo Day 1c which begins at 7:30 p.m. and has 25-minute levels with late registration open until 10:30 pm.
The final chance to make Day 2 takes place with a turbo Day 1d at 10 a.m. on Saturday, Sept. 9.
There will also be plenty of craic in the exclusive Players Lounge and cash games will be running all day with food and drinks served at the tables.
