Event 1: 500 & Counting (1B), 1K Total

$500 + $60 Deep Stack No Limit Hold'em (Re-Entry)

Level 5: 150/300/25 ante 

Poker Room

More than 500 entries are in the field for Day 1B, pushing the total entries past 1,000 for the event.

Venturing across the hall from the Signature Room we find more familiar faces including Joe "Worm" Palma, who won two Borgata trophies in September, and Matt Brady who is at the same table.

Also in the Poker Room is three-time trophy winner Howard Wolper, who busts Derrick Perry (Taunton, MA) when his 99 doesn't improve against Wolper's KK.  "I should've known," says Perry who is off to re-enter. "He was only playing big hands, but I was short."

The 1,000+ entries is half way to the number needed to reach the $1 Million Guaranteed in total buy-ins. Re-entry is open today until ~4:15 pm while there are still two flights on Thursday (11 am & 5 pm).
