The World Series of Poker Circuit touched down at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, Tampa for the first time this season and all tournaments in this venue have been a great success thus far with the Day 1a flight of the $1,700 Main Event keeping on that pace yesterday, pulling in 450 entries and after 15 levels only 88 secured a birth into Day 2 with Isaac Kempton sitting as the current overall chipleader.
Day 1b is the second of the two starting flights for this event and is slated to begin today at 11 p.m. local time. Players will receive a starting stack of 30,000 and will have one re-entry available per flight, during the late registration period that lasts up until the beginning of level 13.
Levels are 40 minutes in length on Day 1 with a 15-minute break after every three levels of play and a 40-minute dinner break at the end of level 9. The day will end at the conclusion of level 15 where players will bag and tag, moving onto Day 2 on Sunday, February 16, at noon.
