  • Down to 17

    Level:10 (1,000/1,500/1,500)
    Entries:17/55
    Prizes:$31,350 ($20,350 prizes, $11,000 bounties)

    They are down to 17 players remaining in the PLO Bounty game now with Level 10 just underway. I’m still waiting for the prizes to be posted for confirmation on the numbers but it looks like 6 players will be getting a piece of $20,350 in prizes with an extra $11k in bounties handed out today as well.

  • 55 Unofficial Entries

    Level:9 (600/1,200/1,200)
    Entries:20/55
    Prizes:$31,350 ($20,350 prizes, $11,000 bounties)

    Entries are now closed for the PLO Bounty game and the unofficial total was 55 entries. There are 20 players still in action with Madde Sharma and Deven Lane entering on the dinner break for starting stacks.

    It looks like Brett Worton is the chip leader at the moment with about 250k in front of him, but Tony Comely and Ryan Smith are also stacking big with 140k and 150k respectively.

  • $30k in Prizes on Dinner

    Level:8 (500/1,000/1,000)
    Entries:18/53
    Prizes:$30,210 ($19,610 prizes, $10,600 bounties)

    The PLO Bounty players are on their dinner break now, and when they return for Level 9 in about 25 minutes entries will be closed for this event. They are up to 53 entries with 18 still alive for combined prizes of a bit more than $30k.

    If these numbers hold, that should mean 6 players getting a piece of $19,610 in prizes later in the night, with $10,600 in bounties handed out throughout the game as well.

  • Nearly $30k in Prizes in Final Entry Level

    Level:8 (500/1,000/1,000)
    Entries:20/52
    Prizes:$29,640 ($19,240 prizes, $10,400 bounties)

    They are playing the final level of entry now with about 20 minutes left until the 30-minute dinner break starts. The field is up to 52 entries with 20 players still alive.

    There are now about 45 minutes left to enter the PLO game today, but entries for the NLH side event will remain open until about 8:30 pm.

  • Closing in on 50 Entries

    Level:6 (300/600/600)
    Entries:24/47
    Prizes:$26,790 ($17,390 prizes, $9,400 bounties)

    The field is up to 47 entries now with a few minutes left to play in Level 6. There are 24 players still alive in the action today with about 90 minutes left to enter the game.

  • 43 Entries for Level 5

    Level:5 (300/500/500)
    Entries:25/43
    Prizes:$24,510 ($15,910 prizes, $8,600 bounties)

    The field is up to 43 entries with 25 players still at the felt today with about 5 minutes to play in Level 5. Deven Lane was a recent late entry, while Ryan Smith was a name I neglected to mention on my last list.

  • First Break

    Level:5 (300/500/500)
    Entries:22/34
    Prizes:$19,380 ($12,850 prizes, $6,800 bounties)

    The PLO players are on their first break of the day now with 34 entries on the board. That puts the combined prizes at just shy of $20k with almost $13k of that reserved for prizes at the end of the night.

    Level 5 will be underway in a bit less than 10 minutes

  • 31 Entries in Level 4

    Level:4 (200/400/400)
    Entries:24/31
    Prizes:$17,670 ($11,470 prizes, $6,200 bounties)

    There are about 20 minutes to play in Level 4 as I got started a bit late today. The field is relatively small so far with 31 entries and 24 players at the felt, but it’s a pretty stacked field here with faces like Tony Comely, Brett Worton, Justin Pennell, Kris Steinbach, Leo Zhang, Mylse Budd (who was 3rd in the MIx last night), Dylan Descheneaux, Alex Liu, Nick Milkovich, Johnny Dalphond, Ryan Comely, Maddie Sharma, Colten Yamagishi, and Preston Stevenson.

  • PLO Big Bounty Game for Thursday

    Event:Event #5: $670 PLO Big Bounty ($400 + $200 + $70)
    Date:Oct 17, 1 pm
    Blinds:30 Minutes
    Starting Stack:30,000
    Late Entry:8 Levels (~5:45 pm)

    Thursday is four-card day on the PPT this time around with the PLO Big Bounty starting at 1pm as the main game. Players start with 30k in chips to play 30-minute levels until a winner is decided. They’ll play 8 levels with the registration desk still open, and the last chance to enter or rebuy should be around 5:45 pm.

    This will be my main focus for Thursday, and I have every expectation that it will run very late. Wednesday was also a very late one for me, so I’ll likely be late to the floor for this one.
