End of Day 1

At the start of the day, 1,400 players packed the Pavilion Room with one simple objective; win your table.

We saw big names like Phil Ivey, Erick Lindgren, Tom “durrrr” Dwan and Bertrand “ElkY” Grospellier come and go quickly. Kathy Liebert, Jennifer Harman and Hal Lubarsky survived long enough to get heads up, but none of them could finish the job.

Still, some familiar faces have guaranteed themselves $5,632 and a chance to increase that prize on Day 2.

They include, but are not limited to, Fatima de Melo, Victor Ramdin, Tristan “Cre8ive” Wade, Adam “Roothlus” Levy, Robert Mizrachi, Ylon Schwartz, Terrence Chan, Adam Schoenfeld, Tony “Bond18” Dunst and Annette Obrestad.

The action will resume tomorrow at 2:30 PST where we will play one more heat before entering Day 3 with the final 14 players.
