Day 1c of $1,500 Platinum Player Championships Set to Begin

Australian Poker Open
Australian Poker Open

It is expected to be a very busy day at the Australian Poker Open, where players will get another shot at finding the money of the $1,500 Platinum Player Championships. The third opening flight of the event begins at 2 p.m. local time at the spaceous Doltone House Western Sydney at Club Marconi, where the field is likely to surpass the AUD $500,000 guaranteed prize pool on Day 1c.

There have been a total of 290 entries through the first two flights, with 37 players securing $2,300 and a bag for Day 2. The event features unlimited reentries, offering players many opportunities to find a bag.

That��s exactly what overall chip leader Minkyu Jun and Day 1b big stack Hasan Onay have done, dominating their opening flights to set the benchmark for the rest of the field.

Just like the opening two flights, late registration remains open until the end of Level 9. Breaks are scheduled after every three levels, including a 30-minute dinner break at the end of Level 6.
