11:34 a.m. Today should be a great day for No Limit Texas Hold'Em as a lot of talent comes back to the
tables well rested for another 6 levels of poker. Action should begin at noon. Stay with us!
12:04 p.m. Everyone heard the order to 'Shuffle up and deal!, so Day 2A is underway.
12:40 p.m. All players will start at level 7 which has blinds of $500/$1000 with a $100 ante. Expect quick action
from the short stacks like Joe Sebok 8,500 chips, Corey Cheresnick 12,600, David Levi 15,100, James Davenport 15,000,
Tony Cousineau 15,000 and Debbie Burkhead 10,800.
1:08 p.m. Montel Williams is getting hot again. He doubled up to 30,000 after making a set of Queens with an all-in move, lost
a few chips, then hit a set of Aces to make up what he lost. And he is seated at a table with David Levi and Cliff "JohnnyBax" Josephy.
David Levi also went all in and doubled up to a present 35,000 chips. Corey Zeidman busted out after running into a set of Aces.
He is followed by William Chen, Hoyt Corkins, Alan Smurfit, 2005 Main Event champion Joe Hachem, Captain Tom Franklin and Jane Gold
the mother of 2006 Main Event winner Jamie Gold.
1:45 p.m Montel William has busted out of the Main Event after his Ace high flush draw and straight draw were beaten by an opponent
who had pocket 7's.
2:28 p.m. Scotty Nguyen got the best of a great situation when a player moved all-in with A J on a flop of J 9 9. Scotty was very
happy because he called while holding the other two 9's! Also note that the tournament staff has decided to only have players continue on
to just 5 levels of play instead of 6 levels. Things should end closer to 2:00 a.m. with that move. Currently there are 900 players
left at the tables.
3:50 p.m. Bustouts have started to happen at a faster pace with about 750 left. That may be why there will be only 5 levels of play today.
Among those players who are now spectators are Rhett Butler, Brad Garrett who's pocket K's met with pocket A's, Patrik Antonius, Doug Kim,
Mark Seif, Dan Harrington, Tony Guoga and 2006 Main Event runnerup Paul Wasicka.
5:21 p.m. Farzah Bonyadi, Barry Greenstein and Dustin "Neverwin" Woolf are among the latest sent to the sidelines today. Action is
now at level 9 with blinds at $800/$1600 with a $200 ante. The field is shrinking so fast that officials have now stated that either the end
of level 5 or 350 players will be the limit. When you think about it, the money is at position 621 and they can't let the field get too small
too fast because they still have 2B to be completed and if one gets 5 levels of play the other has to as well. Number of players for 2A is
at 640.
6:15 p.m. Shirley Williams the mother of David Williams is still in the game with 75,000 chips. But she has her work cut out for her as 5% to 7%
of the field are now over the 200,000 chip mark.
7:10 p.m. Newly eliminated are Sabyl Cohen, Thomas Olsen, Ross Boatman and Evelyn Ng. But if someone is leaving, then someone else
has the chips. Top players at this time include Todd Philips with 420,000 chips, Jared Hamby 380,000, Steve Austin 340,000, David "The Dragon" Pham
300,000, Alex Melinkow 317,000, Deb Blair 285,000 and Amanda Baker 237,000. Players will soon break for dinner.
8:32 p.m. Players have returned from dinner break. The fast action at the tables has also returned because the players are dropping like flies.
The field has now hit 510 remaining.
9:12 p.m. Recent busts include Raymond Davis, 2007 World Series of Poker Player of the Year Tom Schneider, David Einhorn, Jeff Madsen and 'Miami' John Cernuto.
10:16 p.m. Newly players sent to the rail are James Van Alstyne, Can Kim Hua, Gene Strickland, 1983 Main Event Champion Tom McEvoy, Deanna Dozier and Joe Sebok. Speaking of Joe Sebok, the part of the wager that involved
Jeff Madsen having to wear the jester outfit was 'repealed' so there was no further obligation for Madsen to wear the costume. There was no mention
of any portion of that $20,000 as compensation for wearing the outfit constantly on Day 1A. Number of players is at 450.
11:29 p.m. Play tonight will probably finish early. We are at 384 at the tables right now. Because it is so close to days end, Scotty Nguyen with about 74,000
chips decided to pop open a bottle of champagne to celebrate making the cut. But the big players are looking pretty monstrous. On the top of the list we see
Jeff Banghart with 551,000 chips, Kenny Tran 495,000, John Duthie 381,500, Jon Moonves 501,000 and Avi Cohen 430,500.
12:10 a.m. Wednesday July 11th The magic number was reached, so with 350 players left the day has ended. When Day 2B starts tomorrow, it will have the same number
of levels and time spent in play as this day did. Good night and sleep tight.
