With 1,389 entries already logged between Day 1a and Day 1b, the tournament has surpassed last year's record of 1,285 entrants. Late registration remains open until the start of play, suggesting the field could grow even larger. Of the total entries, 466 players will return for Day 2, each aiming to secure a spot in the money.
Action resumes at noon local time on Level 11, featuring blinds of 1,000/1,500 with a 1,500 big blind ante. Levels will now extend to 90 minutes, with players enjoying a 20-minute break after each level and a 75-minute dinner break following Level 14. The goal for Day 2 is to complete at least five levels or reach the money bubble, whichever comes later.
