12:15pm: The Super High Rollers enter Main Event town
Level 1 - Blinds 50/100

Players are still flooding into the poker room here at The Bahamas, with few wanting to be unfashionably on time. Plenty were here for the midday kick-off though, including a few faces who usually like to play events with an extra zero in the buy-in. They include Christoph Vogelsang, Paul Newey and Olivier Busquet. The first two already crashed out of the $100,000 Super High Roller earlier this week so will need to make a very deep run in this one to post a profit for the trip.

Busquet, meanwhile, is looking lean and mean with a new Army recruit haircut replacing his trademark curtained look. We'll let you know if the crew cut works out for him throughout the day. - RJ

12:13pm: Early notables
Level 1 - Blinds 50/100

As the tables start to fill in, we've seen a few familiar faces, including Justin Bonomo, Paul Newey, Olivier Busquet, Brazilian football legend Ronaldo, Team PokerStars Pro Celina Lin, EPT crusher Adrian Mateos, and Team Onliner Randy Lew.

12:00pm: Here we go
Level 1 - Blinds 50/100

Alrighty, folks. It's on. The 2016 PCA Main Event is just about to begin. We expect today's flight to be smaller than tomorrow's both due to players being in the LAPT Bahamas Main Event and the fact that people generally just like later flights.

It's going to be a busy day for us. The LAPT Bahamas Main Event is in Day 2, and the Super High Roller final table kicks off in a couple of hours.

For now, stay with us right here for live updates in the Main Event. -BW
