Numero Dos

It's Sunday, but the online tables are going to be light by about 230 players today. That's the number who've survived Day 1 of the PokerStars.net NAPT Mohegan Sun, from a starting field of 387.
Yesterday's Day 1 saw eight levels played out for an early finish, and the leaderboard is smattered with big names. At the top of the heap is Chris Tryba, a regular in these events who's on a bit of a heater in 2011. Tryba bagged up 173,400 chips last night after a massive late triple up vaulted him into the overall lead. Vanessa Rousso (125,800), Victor Ramdin (123,100), and Adam Junglen (117,600) are in the chase pack of the top ten. Ramdin is looking for another deep run at a PokerStars-staffed event, though his win at The Big Event in March was not an official NAPT win.
We've got three WSOP World Champions in the mix, too. Joe Cada (18,500), Jonathan Duhamel (23,800), and Carlos Mortensen (107,400) are still forces to be reckoned with. The 2003 champ, Chris Moneymaker, was an early casualty of Day 1.
Cards go in the air in about 20 minutes, at high noon local time. We'll be back with the shuffle up and deal, so don't wander off!
