The winner from this event in 2008, Mike Rocco, is still in the field. He started the day with 7,500 chips and has worked those chips up to 85,000, about an average stack. He remarked that he feels the field this year is tougher than last year.

On the other end of the room are Eric and Rod Pardey. Eric is the nephew of Rod; Rod is a former bracelet winner, having taken down the $2,500 Seven-Card Stud event in 1991 and 1994. Not only are the two Pardeys related, they're sitting next to each other!
