The flights go off at 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. on both Friday, November 9th and Saturday, November 10th. Players will get 20,000 in chips and the blind levels go up every 30 minutes.

The main attraction of the series is the $910+$90 buy-in main event which has $200,000 in cash prizes up for grabs. The main event gets underway with the first flight launching at 3 p.m. on Thursday, November 15th.

How To Qualify

Those who want to win a seat at the main event can earn one through several $145 qualifiers.
