This was the Plas 16 mins before the end of Level 1.
1,683 left! 2,044 started today, this is breathtaking stuff, 20% of the Field have crashed & burned inside 1 Level.
Notr the average stack - if you can see it, lower right - has shot up to $115,758.
Will remains steady on 148,000-ish.
The next Level is 800/1,600/200.
It does not matter how slow or fast the structures are, in No-Limit Hold-Em, the Chips fly around like there's no tomorrow. And there is no tomorrow for many of these players.
Great stuff so far Tikay. Good luck to you all for the rest of the day....especially Will. I hope he knows how many of us are behind him in the UK. I still miss you though. Posted by Sky_Andy
Yikes.
We went in the Cardroom with the TV Camera, to film Will, just before the Break.
I gather it's already up on the Viva Las Vegas site, also the Sky Poker Channel on You Tube. Live from Vegas. Almost.
Will go get Will's Chip Count shortly, & also try & find Anthony.

Hi Tikay, i know your really busy being tied up with Will's current battle but could it be possible to ask james "the rail" Hartigan if we could have an update of any other players who play on sky and are in the main event, you already mentioned PHIL (snatiramas) and nick Wealthal, are Mr and Mrs Pace playing ? cheers and good luck to Will of course ! - john
Well, after searching through the haystack of over 70 Tables, I found the needle - right next to the Media Centre. It's exactly the same Table, they've just moved from "Brasilia to "Amazon".
Phew.
Even better - Will is on 170,000.
Cruising, not even in 3rd gear yet.
I espied Joe Beevers leaving the room, & he drew his finger across his throat in the universal "I'm busto" gesture. I did not enquire further, there's a time and a place.
PS - Adam tell me Anthony Hyphen-Hyphen is on Amazon Table 7, so I'll go get his count now.
PPS - Excuse the unanswered qustions, I will get to them all in due course.

Hi John,
I'm afraid, as I think I reported in my Blog (hint, hint, spam spam), that James Hartigan has returmed home to the UK, along with Jill & Dan, we are now operating a smaller Crew, but we'll stay here until the very end - whenever that is.
Snatiramas never played the ME. He won his Seat, took the Cash, & invested half in smaller Tourneys, & used the rest for his family. He actually flew home today.
Nick Wealthall failed to survive Day 2, so far as I know.
I'm not sure, but I don't believe Norman or Bev played the ME. Amazingly, I've not seen either of them since I've been here. Lotta peeps here.
I went looking for Anthony, & bumped into him walking along the Spectator area. That is a bad thing. He ran Q-J into A-J on a J-J-9 Flop. Tough - nay, impossible - to get off that. He's OUT, I'm afraid. Still, Will, who is right by the Exit Door, now has a Railing Crew - Anthony, Adam, James, & Will's pink-hatted mate, "Ed" I think his name is. Will has 174,000 Posted by Tikay10
Yes Ed Rogers, Wills guest last year.. spurs fan, decent chap wore a pink headband last year. Please say hi from me Tikay wish i could be there railing too, but this is the next best thing!

There you go
The Level of Lunacy has Passed, & some semblence of sanity seems to have returned to the Tourney.
Here we are 30 mins into Level 11, the 2nd of 5 Levels today, & as you can see, it's slowed down a tad.
Note they are now less than 1,000 spots from the money.
Whilt I go check on Will, does anyone know, to save me trrawling through x-teen spreadsheets, what Table Anthony is on, please?
He'll be listed under "Anthony Hyphen-Hyphen" or somesuch.
Nightmare City!
Went to find Will - his Table has GONE.
Probz just moved, but it could be that......

Looks like they are getting busy again!
That figure of 1,548 is exactly 900 off the money.
He's come a long way, but still got a way to go.
Tikay just call him brucey, it makes life much easier! (as his name is forsyth.... well one of them is)
Brilliant seeing the young brits in Brewin and Keys doing well!

174k...nice (wats the average and remaing players now, and how many bbs does he have?)
Hi eleanor,
Yes, James Keys is a fine prospect.
James Akenhead is another, he deserved a bangle last year, & he's a nightmare to play against.
The best Live player I've seen this year is 19, & too young to be here. Watch out for a lad called Toby Lewis.
Come on Will!
