Day 1a of The Mid States Poker Tour $1,110 Main Event Kicks Off At 12 p.m.
The first of three flights for the Mid-States Poker Tour $1,110 No-Limit Hold’em at Firekeepers Casino in Battle Creek, Michigan begins today at 12 p.m.
For the first time since 2019, MSPT has made a return to this location, boasting an impressive $1,000,000 guarantee on the prize pool, and ensuring one of if not the biggest turnouts in Michigan’s poker tournament history.
Last year saw a gigantic turnout of 1,615 entrants over the course of three days, sporting the same guarantee of $1,000,000 which it crossed easily. It was Bobby Noel who took down the tournament for $262,145 after beating Ralph Massey heads up. Noel is expected to come out to the event as well as past MSPT champions like Kyna England, Dan Bekavac, Daniel Sepiol and more.
The players will sit down with 25,000 in starting chips with blinds at 100/100 with a 100 big blind ante and levels going up every 40 minutes. After every three levels, there will be a 10-minute break. After Level 9 there will be a 40-minute dinner break, after which the players will come back, play an additional three levels until registration closes. After which, the players will play three more levels and then bag up for the day at the end of Level 15.
The players who do not bag the Day 1a flight will have opportunities to play the flights on Friday the 13th or Saturday the 14th. The players who bag all flight will reunite on Sunday the 15th at 11 am to play down to a winner. Stay tuned to PokerNews for continued updates on the flights, the second day, and the eventual winner of the tournament.
