Daniel Negreanu, Gus Hansen, Tony G, Johannes Strassman, Lex Veldhuis, Barry Greenstein, Humberto Brenes, Dario Minieri, Sorel Mizzi, Jason Mercier and last year's champion Vanessa Rousso, were just a few of the notables to hit the felt at the start of the day.
Left to see another day are Gus Hansen, Allen Bari, Luke Schwartz, Tony G, Sorel Mizzi, Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier, Chad Brown, Paul Berende, and Yevgeniy Timoshenko, just to name a few.
Not all survived however. At the end of play 41 were left and moving on to Day 2. Of those, Tobias Reinkemeier (457,300) is the chip leader, with Luke Schwartz (300,500) and Markus Golser (291,000) close behind. The players will be back tomorrow at noon local time to play down to a final table and we'll be here covering all the action.
