One In, One Out
After an inevitably slow start, this level appears to be one that can actually send people to their demise. I couldn't help but notice that former EPT finalist Cristiano Blanco, for one, was missing, presumed lost.
Meanwhile, as a smattering of players make their early exit towards the door, latecomer Phil Ivey has finally taken his seat and wasted no time in getting involved. A brief watch of his table unveiled that he has won four of the last five pots, thus increasing his slightly diminished stack back up to over the starting stack.
I wish I was good enough to arrive after everyone. It would be like Michael Johnson turning up as his opponents were already half way around the track, and then still winning!
