Two partypoker representatives have just joined the field, Sponsored pro, Richard Dubini, and Team online, Renato Nomura.
It's a bit like musical chairs in the tournament room right now. New tables are being opened all the time to accommodate the influx of new players. Players from the other tables are also moved onto the new tables to make sure the table is balanced right.
The tournament floor has welcomed the players to the tables. The button has been drawn to start on seat one. The dealers have been instructed to shuffle up and deal if they have three or more players at their tables.
Welcome to Day 1a of the €1,100 partypoker LIVE MILLIONS Grand Final Barcelona Finale in Casino Barcelona. With an amazing amount of €1,000,000 guaranteed for this tournament, it is expected that a huge field will come to fight for their share of the prize pool. Today Day 2 of the Main Event and the €10,300 High Roller are also taking place so the tournament room will be filled up entirely.
In total there are four starting flights. The first of two starting flights today starts at noon local time. Players will start with 1,000,000 in chips for their €1,100 buy-in. Play will start with a small blind of 5,000, a big blind of 10,000, and a button ante of 5,000. Sixteen levels of 30 minutes each are scheduled for today and players can reenter an unlimited amount of times during each flight. There will be a 15-minute break after every 4 levels. The registration and reentry period is open until the start of Level 9 which should be around 16:30 local time.
