The first of three opening flights in Event #2: €550 Mixed Main Event HORSES has closed with the field locking up with 17 players.
A total of eight players remained including The Festival Series founder Martin "Franke" von Zweigbergk who hopped back in during the break.
The floor announced two more rule changes which will apply for both Day 1b and Day 1c. First, late registration will now close before the start of Level 9. Second, players will bag their stacks after Level 10 instead of Level 12 as previously scheduled.
This is on top of the rule change with Level 4 being played twice. All of the players applauded all the rule changes in this inaugural event and we expect this event to grow as The Festival Series continues offering it in 2024.
Meanwhile, Jon Kyte, who is fresh off a WSOP Circuit ring victory in a PLO event, hit the rail soon after the action resumed to leave seven players remaining.
"I will go downstairs and join the mixed cash game," Kyte said with a smile before running off to make sure he had a seat.
