About 250 Players Expected on Day 1a
Level 2
: 50/100, 0 ante
The field is currently at 170 players and growing. Not all of last night's satellite winners have made it to the casino floor yet. One of the tournament directors shared with us that he predicts at the first of the two opening days we will witness 250 entrants and believes we will see at least double that number tomorrow.
Structure Announced - Dinner Break After Level 6
Level 2
: 50/100, 0 ante
The tournament director just announced that there will be 12 levels of play for Day 1a, which should take us to around 1am. Breaks take place every three blind levels with a longer dinner break planned after the completion of level 6.
The field continues to grow - and is now at 179 entrants - as a few more players have taken their seats. Players will be allowed to reenter once today if they bust out of the tournament. Day 1b will follow the same pattern, also allowing players a single reentry.

Zhyrnov's Straight Gets Paid
Level 3
: 75/150, 0 ante
The full action is amiss, but Oleksandr Zhyrnov raised to 6,500 on the river of a 
board and his opponent to the left called. Zhyrnov flipped over 
for a king-high straight and his opponent sighed a "nice flop" before mucking 
for the inferior straight.

Last but not least, Sergej Barbarez is sitting a few tables over on a full-ring table.
