The tournament start has been postponed by 30 minutes as staff work to get the bags of Day 2 players situated. While Day 1b players bagged and tagged their chips, the Day 1a survivors had their stacks counted, verified, and written down to the actual physical chips could be used in the second starting flight. Now, those Day 1a stacks have to be reconstructed and put out for the returning players, an overlooked fact that has caused the delayed start.
