As each opening flight played into the money, the players won’t have a bubble to worry about Sunday as they play toward the final table and that huge prize money up top, along with the WSOP Circuit ring and a seat into the WSOP Tournament of Champions this summer in Las Vegas.

Play is scheduled to go until the end of level 27, starting midway through level 16, at the point where Day 1A ended. Once levels 16 and 17 are completed, levels will extend to 60-minutes in length and breaks will take place after every second level, with a dinner break slotted in after level 23.
