Anyone who played 1a want to comment on toughness of the field? I'm playing tomorrow. As I understood it the majority of satty winners played today.

Play should wrap up for the day around 12:15am.

There's 25 minutes left in the 600/1,200/200 level. After this level, there's one more 60 minute level (800/1,600/20).

Currently 270 players remaining from 634 entries.

What happens if more people make day two than there are seats. How many does the venue hold.

In the $560 they decided to start 10 handed due to not enough tables/seats. When 1 person busted at your table, it changed to 9-handed. Not sure what they will do in the 5k, just relaying what happened in an earlier event.

Curious as to why the structure sheet for the main event states that the tournament will be "played 9 handed throughout" yet there were 10 seats at each table (yet max 9 players at least through the time that I busted out). Am I missing something here or are players being cheated out of a little extra table space?

Thanks William. I really don't understand the logic behind taxing a satellite win though - if you haven't won any cash, how is there anything to tax?

Also, I'm almost completely certain it used to be the case that only net wins over $5k were taxable - when did that change? The IRS website suggests that is still the position: http://www.irs.gov/instructions/iw2g/ar02.html

Finally, will there be any single table satellites today?

Thanks again

We offer them. There just has not been as much demand as we had hoped.

William Mason,

When will the filming for the 100K final table take place? Also, will it be in Hard Rock Live like the WPT filming usually is?

Thanks
