One At a Time, Waxman!

Level 20 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Our ten remaining players are each just one elimination away from a seat at the final table tomorrow. With it comes another seat, entry into the $1 million freeroll National Championship at Caesars in May. Nine of them are sweating a bit harder than the odd man out right now.

Matthew Waxman, you may remember, won the $1,650 Main Event here a week ago today, and that too came with a National Championship seat. He's ineligible to win a second entry as the field needs to fill out at 100 players. That number includes 66 automatic qualifiers and 34 at-large bids to be given to the players who rank at the top of the yearly leaderboard. The rules stipulate that should Waxman or any other player win multiple National Championship seats this year, the next highest point earner gets his seat. Should he survive into tomorrow, there will be a very happy 35th-place point earner come May.

But we're getting a bit ahead of ourselves...
