Sweating the Big One

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante

While the field in this tournament continues to grow during the registration period, the $1 million Big One for One Drop in the Amazon Room is rapidly losing players. Many of the entrants in this field are closely watching the updates on their phones, including Tommy Vedes, who just recapped Phil Ivey's bustout to his tablemates.

"Runner-runner flush," Vedes told some of the eager listeners, not even paying attention to the all-in and call going on across the table.

With the richest tournament in poker history taking place in the same building, we expect much of the same throughout this Day 1.
