All the folks who didn't manage to register until Level 2 have now been permitted to take their seats. Registration is now closed, although those confusing red rebuy chips don't have to be cashed in until the end of Level 4.
We'll have full numbers and prizepool details soon.
...or so we hope.
The number on the board right now is 284 - vastly more than last year's field of 198.

We don't know if these two things are connected, but former tablemate Robert Mizrachi has a suspiciously large quantity of chips in front of him - around 33,000.
Daniel Negreanu, who still has rebuy chips in front of him, moved all in for 1,500 on a flop of . Peter Gould made the call.
"What have you got?" Negreanu asked.
"Not much," Gould replied. He opened for the nut low with no appreciable high draw. Negreanu also had the nut low, with a pair -- . The turn gave Negreanu two pair, nines and sixes.
"Don't do it to me," Negreanu begged the dealer.
"Do it to him!" Gould urged. The dealer did not "do it" to Negreanu. The river peeled off to give each player a live deuce for low. Negreanu took three-quarters of the pot.

Phil Ivey, the king of getting it quietly, has lost it all in similarly ninja-type fashion.
We don't know what happened to Mr. Ivey, but there is now just an empty seat where he used to be.
