Landfish Struggling

Steve Landfish came into the day with a big stack — the biggest one in the room, in fact. But this Day 2 has not been kind so far, and it's apparent that Landfish is struggling a bit.

A few moments ago, Landfish wanted to open with a raise. "What's the pot?" he asked.

"Fifty-six," the dealer answered — 5,600 to raise the pot.

"Eighty-five hundred," Landfish said as he mistakenly tried to over-raise. He seemed a bit confused, and he was forced to pull the overage back and make the pot-sized raise. He's no slouch at this game, either. Landfish finished 18th in this event two years ago, and he's cashed in five $10,000 events in the past three years. Two of those were final table runs. He certainly seems a bit out of sorts, if we're honest.

Landfish has seen his stack tumble to about 100,000 in the first level, and he'll need to right the ship soon.
