Day 1B Entries:  408  (Total:  956)

Two of the nearly 1,000 entries into the Championship come courtesy of a freeroll. The last two Seminole Hard Rock Poker Players of the Year were given an entry into this tournament and our other major Championships as part of their winner’s package.

Jason Young is here as the 2019 SHRPO POY. He earned those titles after a 2019 WPTDeepStacks Hollywood win and WSOP Circuit Coconut Creek Main Event final table. Young’s package was set to put him into the big events for 2020 but the lockdown pushed it back.

David Nathaniel is the reigning POY and put his entry to use yesterday, advancing to Day 2 with 207,000.
