$3,500 NLH Championship
Jour 1b a débuté
The 2022 Wynn Summer Classic continues with the $3,500 NLH Championship, with Day 1b beginning at 12 p.m. PDT.
Last year this same event had a $1,000,000 guarantee, with Chance Kornuth coming out on top to win over $350,000. This year the guarantee has been increased to a whopping $3,500,000 and after 300 hopefuls took their shot on Day 1a, it looks as if that guarantee is going to be met.
Today is the second of three starting flights with unlimited reentry permitted per flight. Play on each Day 1 will continue for fifteen 40-minute levels or until 11% of the starting field remains, whichever comes first. The late registration period runs until the start of Level 10, just after the dinner break at 7:30 p.m.
On Days 2 and 3 the level length increases to 60-minutes with ten levels being played on Day 2 and Day 3 continuing until a winner is crowned.
Thomas Muehloecker came out on top of Day 1a, bagging 1,127,000. It will be interesting to see whether any runner on Day 1b will be able to exceed that lofty total.
This is the marquee event of the Wynn Summer Classic series but that does not mean there have not been some massive tournaments already at the Wynn this summer. Just last week the $2,200 Mystery Bounty event was taken down by Manuel Machado for $410,485 in addition to bounties.
