End of Day 1 and in fine shape

As you all know today I played in Day 1C of the Bellagio Cup III. The tournament started with over 580 players and after today we ended with around 240 players. The tournament pays the top 100 players with 100th place paying over 15K and first place paying over 1.3 Million. We start Day 2 at noon tomorrow and play 5 rounds so we will be done tomorrow at 8pm. I am currently sitting with 27,025 which is a little under the average but when we return to action the blinds are only 400/800 with a 100 ante. so I have over 30 times the big blind which gives me a lot of time to build up my stack.

if you look at Cardplayer.com you can see a lot of the play by play action. A lot of big pros are already out but there are some big names left and 2 of them were at my table. Johnny "World" Hennigan and Erik Seidel. I will give more updates tomorrow.


Payout structure for top 5:

PLACE/PRIZE

1/$1,342,320

2/$671,320

3/$361,480

4/$232,490

5/$154,920

Wish me luck and until next time...
