All's Quiet on the Limit Front

Level 1 : 200/400, 0 ante

There are currently 82 players in tonight's tournament and even with characters such as Phil Laak and Daniel Negreanu in attendance, all the tables seem eerily quiet so far. Most of the players seem to be rather laid back, and with 30,000 chips to start, these first few levels are likely to be fairly stress-free as most pots will be rather small.

One testament to how relaxed the players are may be that the massage therapists aren't really being utilized yet. A lot of the pro players tend to take advantage of the stress-relieving hands of the Rio's massage therapists, but so far Jeffrey Lisandro is the only player to be paired with a therapist.
