All the action is not restricted to the High Roller, with the rescheduled opening flight, Day 1A, of the APPT National also underway. So far 87 players have ponied up the KRW 1,500,000 entry fee, with the format offering players a single re-entry per flight, and 84 of those players are still in contention.
Players are returning from their first scheduled break of the day and several notables are in attendance, with PokerStars Festival Korea Main Event Champion Tae Hoon Han, Russia's Konstantin Pogodin, China's Liang Song and Macau's Huidong Gu just some of those in the running.
Players start with 30,000 in chips and have 30-minute levels in which to use them, playing down until the money with 12% of the field making the Day 2 cut.
The second and final starting flight, Day 1B, will kickoff at 7 p.m. local time (GMT+9) and will follow the same format, though this will have 20-minute levels instead of the originally scheduled 30-minutes.
