Enriquezzo Doubles

Ryan Enriquezzo won the WSOPC Main Event in Atlantic City last month, and we just found him involved in an all-in pot. He got his last 13,325 into the middle with his {6-Spades} {6-Hearts} flipping for double or nothing against an opponent's {A-Clubs} {10-Hearts}.

The board came {6-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {4-Hearts} {3-Hearts}, and Enriquezzo has doubled back above starting stack here in the eleventh hour.

Cavanaugh Pilots the First Flight

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

That's the end of Day 1a, and the ~97 players who survived have been granted an early night.

Casey Cavanaugh did the best work in that session, riding a late surge to a chip-leading count of 196,700. He's joined at the top by Shaun McBride and Mark Kroon as members of the Century Club, and you can see their chip counts in the post below.

Other notables who will have the night off include Garry Gates, Alex Masek, Jeff Banghart, Allen Kessler, and Amanda Musumeci.

The group of players who were eliminated will have another chance at this Main Event at 7:00pm. We'd love to tell you more about Day 1a, but that's less than 10 minutes away.

We'll be back with Day 1b in just a few minutes.

Another Former Winner Arrives

Kai Landry
Kai Landry

Another familiar face! This one belongs to Kai Landry, winner of the 2009 WSOPC Main Event in Tunica. He took home more than $180,000 for that win, and he's back here in Council Bluffs this week to try for number two. Landy skipped the afternoon session, so this is his first bullet here in Iowa.

Cue the Trombones

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

We've got 76 players registered for Day 1b so far, and the cage will remain open until the cards go in the air on Day 2.

By the way... we should probably mention that you won't be seeing us here tomorrow. The Circuit is off for the Easter holiday, so Day 2 will recommence at 11:00am on Monday.

Lee Takes Small Pot

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante
Bernard Lee - a little at a time.
Bernard Lee - a little at a time.

After a flop of {3-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} Bernard Lee bet 650 and got two callers. The turn came {4-Hearts} and all three players checked. The river fell {A-Hearts} and again all three players checked.

Bernard Lee announced "Ace" and tabled {A-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds}. The other two players folded and Lee took a small pot.
