Day 1 = Dunzo

We started Day 1 at 12:00 pm with 1,592 players. Thirteen hours and 10 levels later, we have just 152 of them remaining.

Theo Tran is the presumed overnight chip leader with 145,800 in chips. Official chip counts will be released shortly, and we'll post them for you as soon as we can.

Thanks for tuning in today. We'll be back at 2:00 pm PDT Thursday for Day 2. When the players return, they will have new seat assignments, and will be playing nine-handed for the duration of the event. By this time tomorrow, we should have our final table. Until then!
