I recently qualified for the Michigan Poker Classic at Soaring Eagle. Besides Soaring Eagle being trash (which most people would agree), I think this is a soft tournament overall. They have three starting days with $1,100 buy in. 300 cap per day. I can't find any history on how many they got last year and I'm trying to determine which day would be best. I'm concerned about a low turnout on day one and I can't play day 2 due to other commitments.

Anybody have any history here in this tourney? Thoughts on playing day 1 vs. day 3?

Here's a link to the site where you can see structure and such. Appreciate your thoughts.

Just play day 3. Havent lived in MI for 5 years or so, but from what I remember all days usually have a relatively decent turnout. (for all of their multi-day events)

They've always had bad structures, and this is no different. As bad of a structure that I've seen for a regional 1k-ish main event.

Last event was the Spring Poker Series in May of this year i think. Also was a 1k main with 150k gtd. Only 138 runners. Overall a total **** show.

I qualified on July 30th in a mega. It only had 8 runners and one reentry. Paid one spot. The Saturday tourney paid 2 so I was the third qualifier overall.
