"Hmm... looks like he's got squadoosh"
While the seasoned pros have all been here before, for the first-timers (and there are many) this is undoubtedly destined to be a most memorable day of poker, one that will surely provide many stories down the road. It is the biggest poker tournament in the world, after all. Enough to make one's head spin, for sure.

Some who are here are already actively working on chronicling the event for future consultation.

As he has done each day thus far during the Main Event, ESPN color commentator Norman Chad is making the rounds, passing in between the tables and chatting with players. Just saw three players get up and ask Chad for an autograph. In fact, one of the three even asked your humble reporter to snap a photo of him and the television personality standing beside his table. Glad to help with the record-keeping.
