Of course, the centerpiece of the whole affair is the $1,500,000 guaranteed World Poker Tour Maryland At Live! Casino $3,500 buy-in no-limit hold’em main event. The main event features two starting flights. Day 1A kicks off on Saturday, Sept. 28 at 12:15 pm local time, with day 1B set to start at the same time on Sunday, Sept. 29.
There will be unlimited re-entries available for players while registration remains open, which will last through the first break on Day 2 (approximately 2:30 p.m. local time on Monday, September 30). Players will begin with 40,000 in chips, with hour-long levels through the first 18 levels, and 90-minute levels until the final table is set.
