Wrap Up

[user76023]

Play is now over for the day and Barry Greenstein looks to be the chip leader with about 177,200 going into Day 2.

68 players remain from the 527 that started today, massive carnage for an event. However, 14 players will still come back tomorrow and not get paid with money bubble popping at 54. We'll be playing down to the final table of nine tomorrow night.

Until 2pm tomorrow then, we'll see you there!

Shorn Deeb

[user76023]

Shaun Deeb is down to just a few thousand after a nasty limit spot. Deeb bet the {Q-Spades}

flop before getting check-raised on the {3-Hearts}

turn. His opponent bet the {4-Clubs}

river too and Deeb called another bet there before mucking when he was shown {Q-Clubs}

.

The limit is certainly causing some vicious swings tonight.
