Guess what...I made it through Day 1B of Event #3. I'm not sure how many people registered for yesterday's start, but I think it was somewhere in the neighborhood of 1700 or so. It was an exciting ride. I didn't think I was going to make it past the first 2 hours being down to a single 1k chip. When all is said and done, I was one of 207 people yesterday that are advancing to play later on this afternoon at the Rio.
I don't have any delusions of grandeur. I know that it wasn't my stellar play and really was a matter of getting lucky when I had to or having hands when someone else had misread me. I'm still really excited to make it to Day 2. The bubble is really close, and I think I might have a shot at cashing in my first World Series event.
Every year, there's an event photographer who takes pics of the tables as they are starting. The link is below. For entertainment value, look at the picture of me. See the guy I'm sitting next to? Ok, how do two people from opposite ends of the world, not only have the same shirt on, but what trick puts them at the same table and seated next to each other?
More to come...
