Day 1a is a Wrap

Play has concluded for the day and a little over half the field will return on Thursday for Day 2 play. Our coverage of Day 1 action here at the Royal Dublin Society will resume tomorrow afternoon at 2:00 p.m. local time. We anticipate a slightly larger field tomorrow and expect to see a number of top pros turn out, including Internet superstar Annette ‘Annette_15’ Obrestad, fresh off of her WSOP Europe Main Event victory, last year’s EPT Dublin victor Roland de Wolfe, and PokerStars pro Katja Thater, who won a WSOP bracelet this past summer.

We'll have the official end of Day 1a chip counts posted shortly.

Tune in tomorrow at 2:00 p.m. local time for our continued coverage of Day 1, live from the PokerStars EPT in Dublin, Ireland.
