The first three levels of the 5:30pm Flight #5D are in the books as the players still in the tournament enter their first break of the evening. There are still over two hours left to register for this flight; an hour-long Level 4 of 100-200 ante 25 begins after the break and will be followed by an hour-long Level 5 of 200-400 ante 50. Registration is open until the end of the break at the end of Level 5. Players that late-register will receive 7000 in chips for $150 and can use an optional add-on of 10,000 chips for $100 more.
Over in Flight #5C, 43 players remain out of 178 with the blinds currently at 1000/2000 ante 300. That field will play down to 18 players tonight who will advance to Friday’s Day 2.
