Registration closed for Flight G about an hour ago while we were processing all of the end-of-day information for Flight F, and here are the official numbers.

This final flight attracted 993 entries, making it the second largest flight for Event 1. The final 125 players will finish in the money, guaranteed to earn at least $800 each, and the final 70 will advance to Day 2 (which begins tomorrow at 2:00 pm).

The total field size across all seven flights is a whopping 4,852, which more than doubled the $1 million guarantee. The official prizepool will be posted before play begins on Day 2, but it should be worth more than $2.08 million.

As Level 11 begins with increased blinds of 800-1,600 with a 1,600 ante, most of the field is packed into one half of the tournament room, with one additional table waiting to break. So with about 365 players remaining, the average chip stack is about 54,400 (34 big blinds).
