Day 1 is a Wrap

'Damn it feels good to be a gangsta...'
'Damn it feels good to be a gangsta...'
What started with 880 entrants has been reduced to 181, and those survivors will return tomorrow afternoon for Day 2 action.

Notable players lost amidst the first eight levels of play include Phil Hellmuth, Phil Ivey, Barry Greenstein, Andy Bloch, JC Tran, and Daniel Negreanu.

But fear not, the field is still loaded with star power, including WSOP bracelet-winner Erick Lindgren, Terrence Chan, Marcel Luske, and last year's Player of the Year, Tom Schneider.

Our coverage of Event 12 will recommence at 3:00 p.m. local time tomorrow afternoon. For now, goodnight from the Amazon Room!
