Players are taking their seats

[user22113]

Being a short handed event, all tables are being used to seat as many players as possible. There are already quite a number of alternates, and there is a buzz in the air about this event.

Dutch Boyd Nearly Felted

[user22113]

An early position player moved all in and Dutch Boyd called. The EP player flipped up Q-Q, crushing Boyd's T-T. A queen hit the flop and Boyd was left with a single green 25 chip after the hand.

A quick scout of the room and we can see some familiar faces, including T.J. Cloutier, Dutch Boyd, Men Nguyen, Chris Fergusen and Daniel Negreanu. Daniel is just killing some time before the start of Day 2 of the 7 Card Stud event later this afternoon.
