Three starting flights are down for the TPC Championship and all 47 survivors return today for Day 2 at noon. They are in the money, guaranteed at least $3,170 but they have $109,110 waiting for the champ.

They will play the last 5:28 of Level 14 before blinds go up to 3,000/6,000 with a 6,000 ante. The structure has them playing down to the final table or Level 29, whichever comes last, and they might just play down to the winner for a day off tomorrow.

It will be a fun, money-making day in the Poker Room.
