With 136 entrants, there will be eight matches in the first round. The winners of those eight matches will then join the 120 players who are receiving byes.
The 16 players who drew matches in the first round will get half of their buy-in back. In essence, they are each playing a $5,000 satellite to reach the second round.
We will have those matches for you shortly.
