Just rolled up at the Aria, Ivey is in conversational mood. No sooner does Haxton bust out then Negreanu rolls in with a super enthusiastic smile and takes Ike's still warm seat. He says to Ivey and co. "hey guys, how's it going, guess that's my seat." If you didn't know any better, you'd think he was a newbie tourist, in for a night of fun at the tables in Vegas.

Isn't 43 entries significantly less than Aria was hoping for?

Yep. They had 58 listed on the players page so quite a number missing. Would be interesting to know why those names where up there and what happened.....

And one of the amateurs is a former world champion.

There goes Vogelsang... 66 into 99 of Brandon Steven, two Germans left. Leon is probably backing all of them though and he has boatloads of money.

John Morgan gets a terrible flop and doubles up Talal Shakerchi.

Tom Dwan said he was going to be there, not Aria.
We know how he is with his promises though...

John Morgan, whom I remember playing in a $600 tournament last year, is all in against Talal Shakerchi and his face says it all... having hit two pair on an A-7-3 flop, his cards are no good against Shakerchi's pocket aces. Fortunately, Morgan has his fellow amateur covered.

Nice to see Morgan come out... he was probably just playing the afternoon $500 this afternoon and decided to play the 500k while he was at it.

Ike squeeze jams with the 33, gets called by Connor Drinan with AK and doesn't hold

Ivey: "I hate to be like this. But it's just like this."

reminds me of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=409Pjtq7jzY

"You want it to be one way. But it's the other way."
