Whoever had that bet...
 

Regarding the first person out in under 10 minutes, you win!

From Cardplayer.com (1 minute into the tournament):

Seat Open

Tournament Director Johnny Grooms just made the following announcement: "That's right ladies and gentlemen, we have our first player down. Only 5800 to go.

Looks like whoever took over 6000 on that Bodog prop bet for number of entrants lost.

Imagine being the chip leader for a whole 5 minutes with a double on the first hand! Dreams of 7 million. lol

Re: Whoever had that bet...
 

Since it appears they haven't hit the 6600 player limit (TD's comment about 5800 left), is registration still open for Friday and Saturday heats?

If so, suppose someone busts out today. Can they buy in again for Friday or Saturday if they want to pony up another $10K?

Re: Whoever had that bet...
 

I believe it closed today at 11 or maybe until the 1st few levels are done today. And no, you can't buy in twice.

I'm quite surprised they didn't hit 6k.

Re: Whoever had that bet...
 

Entries close at the end of the first level today so about 12:45 or so Vegas time.

It looks like it wasn't 1 minute, but closer to 8-10 minutes from reading other sites. But you're still a winner, congrats.

The official number of entrants hasn't been released yet so it's possible the number 6,000 might still be cracked. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
