The tournament will then resume on Sunday afternoon (16:00 ET), with a champion being crowned a few hours later.
There are two ways into this event - you can either buy in directly for $25,000, or you can hope to satellite your way in. People who qualify through a satellite will not be able to unregister for the event.
A few other notes:
a) there will be first-round byes if the tournament starts without a perfect number of players
b) the tournament will be capped at 64 players
