Moving in the Alternates

So far they have seated 180 alternates with hundreds still waiting in the hallways. Among those waiting are Phil Gordon and Doug "Rico" Carli. Carli was taking the wait well. He said, "By the time I sit down, I'll be short stacked - but I'm used to that. And maybe we'll already be in the money by then."

Glyn Banks Crippled

Glyn Banks raised 175 from the big blind and two players called. The flop came {10-Clubs}{5-Spades}{A-Hearts}. The small blind checked, Banks bet 350, middle position player called and the small blind folded. Banks bet 600 when the {6-Clubs} came on the turn and his opponent called. Banks checked the {2-Diamonds} on the river, his opponent bet 700 and Banks called. Bank's opponent turned over {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} for a pair and took the pot. Banks mucked is cards and was down to 800 after the hand.

Outside Looking In

Walk around the hallways outside the Amazon Room and the vibe you pick up is that of an evacuation center. People are sitting on the floor, they're clustered in little groups around officials with clipboards, and every few minutes you hear those officials shouting out instructions. Inside the room there's a line of those lucky few who've already heard their names called. There are still a lot of people waiting to take their seats.
