The 259 players have moved from the lobby to the tournament room, but there was no sign of TD Thomas Kremser as the start time approached. Just a few minutes after 2:00, the TV screens came to life, showing Kremser perched atop an Alp in full ski regalia. He gave the command to "Shuffle Up and Deal" over the airwaves, and the dealers have heeded his command.
With that, the cards are in the air, and Day 2 is a go!
