Like yesterday, the plan is to play eight 60-minute levels with a 20-minute player break scheduled upon the completion of every two levels.
Those who opt to pay the five-figure buy-in will receive a 30,000 starting stack and will need to have chips in front of them upon the completion of the day to make it through to the next stage.
Each player is permitted two entries per flight/day and late registration closes upon the completion of Level 10 on Day 2.

Day 1a Recap

Over the course of the first starting flight, 166 entries were recorded with just 80 of those bagging and tagging a stack for Wednesday's Day 2.
Among the Day 1a field were a number of PokerStars ambassadors such as Parker Talbot, Alejandro Lococo and Lex Veldhuis. However, neither player survived the first leg of the tournament.
Andre Akkari and Sam Grafton also donned the PokerStars patch and had a more fruitful session on the felt. Both players had chips in front of them when Day 1a wrapped up and will pilot over stacks of 136,900 and 53,400 to Day 2 respectively.
When the dust settled from the first starting flight, Portugal's Andre Marques was confirmed as the Day 1a chip leader after ending the day with a stack of 197,500. Maximilian Silz (182,200) and Alberto Meran (155,900) also bagged six-figure stacks and round out the top three chip counts.
Other notable names who advanced to Day 2 from yesterday include Yuri Dzivielevski (130,900), Chance Kornuth (127,000) and Steve O'Dwyer (104,800).
As always, be sure to keep it locked in with PokerNews to keep up with all the action from the PCA.
