about $77K in chips.

Anyone want to survey the PokerPages list and give 2+2 status?

Per the last list I saw, that's not just good shape, that's 3rd place for the day 1 folks.

The other thing I noticed was the Hellmuth went from 6K to 33 pretty quick in the last few hours. Although it's hard to know how much of this is accurate.

Don't forget that Boris is still in it too! He's at 30K.

I would love to see Grag fair well. He is a top notch player and guy. I wonder if he's handing out candy like he does in the 150/300 HOE game I've seen him play.

Good Luck Greg as I know you'll play well.

Peace,
Joe Tall

Thanks to everyone for your support. I will try to do my best on Monday and for as long as I can last. And hope I continue to get lucky if needed.

Later, Greg Raymer (FossilMan)

Sarge,

He won the final double shootout on Stars last Sunday night to get in (I am sure he was gonna buy in anyway). I watched a bit of it as I played the super on Paradise.

...amazingly I'm still around. At the dinner break I was down to 3200, then ran that up to 51k (doubled, doubled again, then flopped middle set and got paid off all-in three ways), then ran kings against aces and lost with a set, ending up 17,500 for the day.

Peter Dempster is my name, but I'll be lucky to make the dinner break unless I make some hands.

making the 2nd day is nothing to sneeze at. Now we know who to look for in the chip counts. J_V mentioned you were alive in the WPT forum but he unfornately wasn't so lucky. Good luck. What are the blinds starting at today?
