They along with many others will still have the opportunity to take a shot with the two Day 1 flights that remain and thanks to the re-entry element, every player that gets knocked out before the late entry closes will have the opportunity to re-buy into those flights once per flight.
Day 1c is set to continue with a massive field as it is already at max capacity. Players will take their seats tomorrow morning at 10 a.m. local time Saturday, June 1st, with Day 2b play starting play tomorrow at 7 p.m. local time. Due to the massive field, this time has been changed twice already and may possibly even change to a later time but don't worry as the PokerNews Live Reporting Team will be here to cover the action and keep you up to date with all the latest news.
