Players are filtering in

So far, the Amazon room seems oddly calm. The Players are starting to filter in and are taking their seats. It is very orderley and free flowing. There are THOUSANDS of players, however you would not know it by the way it is being managed. This is a fantastic turnaround from the chaos of the opening $1500 event.

What a Way to Start Your Day

On his very first hand, Gregory Grivas had pocket sevens. He bet out 100 and one opponent called. He made a set on a flop of 7-2-4, pushed all-in and his opponent called. Grivas turned over his sevens and his opponent showed pocket fours. A blank came on the turn and Grivas was feeling good. His feeling was short lived when a four fell on the river, giving his opponent quads and sending Grivas out the door.
