Day 1 Ends With Brandon Adams in the Lead
Day 1 of the 2010-11 World Series of Poker Circuit Southern Regional Championship has come and gone. A field of 70 came to play today and after eight levels, 44 of them remain. Leading the way is Brandon Adams with a stack of 136,150.
It may be a small field, but it certainly is not lacking in skill. Among those that will be returning tomorrow include Shannon Shorr, David "Bakes" Baker, Adam Levy, and David Peters. On the flipside, tournament studs Dwyte Pilgrim, Darren Elias, David Williams, and Todd Terry failed to make it to Day 2.
Registration is still open throughout the night and into tomorrow. Players will be able to register through Level 9, about 2:00pm local time here in New Orleans and one level into Day 2. While it is no certainty the field will hit 81 players, all who make the final table will earn a seat in the World Series of Poker Circuit National Championship to be held in about a week's time.
Play resumes with Day 2 at 1:00pm local time tomorrow, so we'll see you then!
