Event 1 Day 1E: Pass the Cappuccino

$100 + $25 No Limit Hold’Em Deep Stack

Level 2 came and went with another 50 players joining the field to push today’s total up to 160 with two more levels of late registration or re-entry. Day 1D was the biggest flight of Event 1 so far with 244 entrants and 1E is racing to catch it.

A big hand on Table 41 saw both players get both of their deep stacks in the middle quickly. It usually takes a series of raises pre-flop to build a 200 big blind pot but the 2-seat moved in his ~10,000 after the 9-seat opened the action to 250. A huge bet at this stage and the 9-seat instantly called to see thet big shove was made with Ad Ac and needed help with Kc Kd. Not a standard play with Aces but it worked out as the board ran out all baby cards.

“That’s a good start to my day,” he said stacking his newly earned double stack, “Now I need to not get crazy.”

Adding insult to injury, the cocktail waitress showed up with a fresh cappuccino and the players pointed at the 9-seat walking down the steps. “I’ll take that from him too,” the 2-seat chirped up.

Players are now in Level 3 with blinds at 75/150.
