The 2024 Signature Poker Series Championship is down to the last 28 players with everyone guaranteed at least $5,500 and $144,840 awaiting the champ.

The schedule was updated, and when 16 players remain, there will be a two-table redraw instead of a three-table redraw at 24. They are scheduled to play down to the final table nine, but that might also change depending on when they get there and player opinions.
