On top of that, the winner earns a $1,100 Main Event seat, a plethora of points toward the Series Champion race and, of course, the patented Seminole Hard Rock guitar trophy.

All Day 2 levels are 40 minutes with a 40-minute dinner break occurring later in the day. Updates throughout the tournament’s conclusion will be available right here at SHRTPoker.com.
