A Great Crowd

As another reminder that we're not at the WSOPE anymore, final preparations are still being made to the tournament area about 15 minutes after our scheduled starting time. Part of the problem is that there are about 350 players in the room looking for their chairs. It's a big field here on Day 1a.
Tournament Director Thomas Kremser has called the players to their seats, but there are still a few administrative things to take care of, and a few forms to be filled out in triplicate.
This shouldn't take too much longer; we just wanted to make sure you know we haven't forgotten about you out there. Sit tight... we'll be back with the shuffle up and deal at some point soon.
