Final Flight for the Megastack

There are already 10 players waiting in line for Day 2 on Thursday, but before that, there is another flight to play in the Megastack. It gets going at noon on Wednesday as a repeat of the opening day.

The 1a stack to beat belongs to Michael St. Pierre-Porter with 369k in his bag. He’s having a decent week so far here at the Fall Super Stack with a small cash in Event #1 before chopping for second place in Event #5. He has a partner in the 300k club from 1a in Zeyu “Skytrain” Huang. Huang put 309k into his bag as the only other player with 300k or more. Kali Shuali, who cashed the Heads Up game, and Ben Cooper are the 200k club for 3rd and 4th place from 1a.

As with the first flight, Wednesday’s players sit down with 25k in chips to play 40-minute levels. There are 9 levels of late entry available on Day 1, which means entries should close around 7:15 PM on each Day 1.

There are 15 levels on the schedule for Day 1, but they’ll end early if the field hits 10% before then. Day 1a was not able o play down to the 10% number before the end of Level 15, despite being down to 10 in Level 13, so no matter what happens on 1b, there will be at least two players who don’t make money on Day 2. TD Landon Lacroix changed the structure this week to the 10% figure in an effort to ensure players were all in the money for Day 2, but, ya know, poker gonna poker.
