HPT Main Event East Chicago Flight B Today at 2pm!

Flight B of the HPT Main Event at the Ameristar East Chicago begins at 2 p.m. local time today. Yesterday's Flight A got 112 entries, with 25 moving on to Day 2. Ryan Olisar (pictured) is setting the pace as the chip leader so far with 327,500.

For the $1,650 buyin, players will receive 30,000 starting chips and blinds will be 40 minutes for Day 1 and 60 minutes for Day 2 and beyond. Breaks will be every two hours of play, with a 60-minute dinner and registration break after Level 9.

Players may enter or re-enter Flight B until the start of Level 10, or around 9:30 pm. Play will continue through Level 15, and all players still alive at that time will move on to Day 2 Sunday at 1pm. Tomorrow's flight will be the final starting flight, and that will begin at 1 pm. The final table will be livestreamed on Twitch.tv Monday at noon.

Good luck to all!
