Field Update
As the field closes in on their second break of the day we have 459 players remaining from the 798 that entered the tournament for the Day 1D starting flight.
Fun Table in the Corner
There is a $150 no-limit hold’em side tournament running in the far corner of the room that is having some fun. John Gordon and Jim Calderaro are both at the final table and having some fun while they play. The Coronas and Patron shots are flowing and in a recent hand Calderaro had his pocket sevens topped by the pocket eights of Gordon, with a little slow roll thrown in by Gordon all in good fun.
A Peculiar Hand
A board had a straight flush dealt out and two opponents flipped over their cards for what looked like it would be a chop. The first player turned over pocket queens, but his opponent held
for a higher straight flush and he won the hand to eliminate his opponent.
Matthew Elsarelli Eliminated

A few players that snuck in during the late stages of play before registration closed today include Lily Kiletto, Tony Ruberto, Michael Beasley, Nancy Birnbaum, and Michael Rocco.
Chino Rheem Eliminated
Chino Rheem is the first notable of the day to be eliminated from the tournament. He will likely return for the Day 1E starting flight that begins at 7 p.m. tonight.
