Event 1D: Players Prepare for 1E - the 11 am

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

Level 14: Blinds 1,200/2,400/300 ante

Ever since registration closed we've seen a lot of long faces leaving the tables.  The list of casualties include:

Manh Nguyen
Sean Rice
Steve "Dakota" Happas
Cathy Dever
Anna Khait
Tony "Muscles" Campagna

On his way out of the Signature Room, Campagna quipped that he was going to play in the fifth flight of this event.  "I'll be playing Day 1E, it's the 11 o'clock," he says.

Campagna and many players already have their eyes on Event 2 which is a $350 + $50 + $100 Black Chip Bounty. The one-day tournament starts at 11 am and features 15k chips and 30 minute levels to start (Levels 11+ /40 min.)

"At least you have a chance to get your money back if you don't cash," says Campagna as each knockout earns a player a $100 bonus.
