WSOP Day 1B: "Official" Results, News & Discussion

[Kevmath]

Part 2 of day 1 starts shortly, with another 1800+ players playing their way down to about 650 in about 7.5 levels. The following sites are great to find out how some of your favorite players are doing:

cardplayer.com (with updates, chip counts every hour later in the day, and commentary)
gutshot.com
pokertrails.com
pokervoice.com (geared towards the European player)
pokerwire.com
pokerpages.com (with Mike Paulle's rolling list of players most people won't know, and a couple other blogs by their reporters).

As the second flight of the $10,000 buy-in No-Limit Hold'em championship was getting underway, a player was overheard asking, "Is this limit (hold'em)?" No, sir. We'll see if he's still confused if he flops the nuts.

How did this guy even figure out how to use the door handle to get out of his hotel room?

11:12am... Featured Table update: Sammy Farha and Oliver Hudson (Kate's brother) are the biggest names here at the TV table. He knocked a guy on on the first hand! The flop was A-A-10 and Sammy had A-10. Oliver had pocket tens. Ouch.

I'm pretty sure I commit homicide if I have 10-10 on the first hand of the WSOP and it comes A-A-10 and someone has A-10. Just saying.

It seems far more likely to me that this is a rhetorical question in response to a hand involving nothing but min raises...
