Unlike the trickling stream that slowly populated the room yesterday for Day 1A, Day 1B is off to a bustling start, with the vast majority of the players filling the room before the announcement to shuffle up and deal. Whereas many of the tables were contested three-or-four-handed in the early going yesterday, almost all tables appear to house at least six grinders. A tournament official estimated to us that 1,300 players are already racing to accumulate chips.
