FIRST BREAK OF THE DAY

Championship Event

Take a bigger field on Day 1b, add in a few NFL games on the big screens plus a crowd just waking up and you'll understand the energy in the room is amped up more than yesterday. The bustouts seem to be running at a much slower pace but we did lose a player in the early portion of Level 1.

Matt "All in at 420" Stout took down a sizable pot versus Roy Winston when his T9 flopped good versus 99. Lacey Jones got away from a hand in a multi-way pot against a player who flopped the nuts, from the action we surmise she was most likely holding a set. Jason Young was almost literally in a battle with the 8-seat player, but calmer heads prevailed. Brian Lemke is on the shortstack after his flopped straight was run down by the river boat. He plans to ship it in for a double-up or call it a day. Deep Stack winner Taemee Feuer just shook her head when I checked on her status, the two players on the other end of the table are Matt Stout and Roy Winston.

As the players head off on their first 15 minute break of the day, here are some random chip counts from around the room.

Bill Gazes - 65,000
Shawn "sprstoner" Glines - 40,000
Kevin "Lucko" O'Brien - 38,500
Matt "All in at 420" Stout - 34,000
Tuan Gheban - 28,000
Gavin Smith - 20,000
Taemee Feuer - 16,000
Brian Lemke - 7,500
