The opening flight of the $600 Deep Stack Kick Off ($1M GTD) has drawn a strong crowd at Borgata, with the tournament entering Level 12.

So far, 369 entries have been recorded in Day 1a, and the field has already been whittled down to 108 players as eliminations have come thick and fast throughout the afternoon.

Players still looking to jump into the action have just over 20 minutes left to register before the end of the level. Following the scheduled break, late registration will officially close when Level 13 begins.

Those who miss the cutoff, or those who are eliminated, still have another opportunity to build a stack, with Day 1b, which kicked off at 5:15 p.m., currently underway.

With four more starting flights still to come after today, plenty of players are expected to take multiple shots at securing a Day 2 berth in one of the Borgata Summer Poker Open's marquee events.
