WPT Choctaw on Pace to Smash $2 Million Guarantee

The first of two Day 1 starting flights took place Friday in the $3,800 buy-in World Poker Tour at Choctaw Casino in Durant, Oklahoma, and 336 players have already entered, putting the tournament well on pace to crush the $2 million guarantee.

Day 1b will begin at noon CT on Saturday, and then the remaining players will all come back Sunday for the second of four days. Come Monday, we'll have a final table of six players determined, all of whom will take a break until May 26 and then travel to Las Vegas, more specifically the HyperX Esports Arena at Luxor, to play it down to a winner.
