What time does the Main Event start?

[Lawman007]

11:00 or 12:00? I think they started it at 11:00 last year, didn't they?

[Teldar]

I thought I heard conflicting reports for this year. I too would like clarification on this

11AM. At least that's what the Stars email said.

I've already checked in and my card says 12pm.

This year the Day 1 start time is noon.

It's printed on your card.

Harrah's is definitely on top of things this year.

On the schedule on the WSOP website, it says noon for all four days. When you click the link for more details, it says all four days will start at 11:00am.

Gotta like this too, for the first four days:

"There may be NO DINNER BREAK."

[Lawman007]

The e-mail that I just got from Stars says noon, too.

Like anyone is going to pull a Hellmuth and show up a 2pm, you all know your going to be there at 10 am anyway just to enjoy the whole experience and get settled in. Also i think it is crazy to believe that they will start this exactly at when they say they want to, it will still be a mad house. I give it +20 min from the noon start time.

I e-mailed Vicky Loitta (who confirmed my start day) yesterday with your exact question about the web site discrepancy and have heard nothing yet.

I also asked about the conflicting blind levels - it used to be posted as 100 minutes but now says 120 minutes.

[ravenfan1733]

I just heard back from Vicky.

Main event starts at noon and blind levels are 2 hours long.

shockingly the opening event with alot of alternates started ontime. so im expecting the main event too also.
only issue is that Harrah's may have gotten a little smarter so if there is a major problem possibly they will start a little late rather than force themselves to start on time.
