Goodnight From Council Bluffs

After seven levels of play and 62 eliminations, Day 1 of this championship event has reached an end. The pace of this tournament has been near perfect. Tomorrow shapes up to be no different. The 27 players that remain will play down to the final nine to set the lineup for Wednesday's final table.

Howard Wolper is the current chip leader with 88,400. He'll start the day at Table 19 along side local Tony Merksick and the always dangerous Bernard Lee. Josh Harshbarger of Lincoln, NE will be the captain of Table 20 and the players starting on Table 21 will have to contend with bracelet winner and accomplished tournament veteran Bob Slezak.

We hope you'll join us tomorrow at 12:00 noon for our continued coverage of the WSOPC Council Bluffs Main Event as we play down to the final nine contestants.

Until then, good night and good luck!
