Actualy, yes you did. I'm on my way out right now, and I am READY.
Here's hoping for some good luck, or at least, very little BAD luck. |

I'm supposedly all over the updates. As soon as Mark sends me a message, I'll get it posted here.
Mind you, I *probably* (read: no way in hell am I doing this with a baby that gets up at 7am) will NOT be staying up until the end of the day. That would be about 6:30am my time... I will stay up as late as possible though to keep the updates coming in! |

And the first updates are in!
Mark's sent through the first updates. First off, he's hot wearing a sweatshirt. (my comment: hot? in a room with 8000 people??? go figure! )
He also said that he has no big names at his table but there is one other at the table that he has played with before. He also mentioned that one guy is out already - first hand. He didn't specify whether it was his table or another though. Mark won blinds second hand. |

They showed: Robert Burton JJ Opponent 33 The last two cards were 79, and Burton's opponent was eliminated in a set-over-set situation.

At the moment it does appear that CardPlayer is tracking Mark as well. His chip stack is appearing in their list!

Mark's chipstack: 9600 (from Mark - not CP)

Isn't your kid around 8 months or so? How and the hell are you getting him/her to sleep that late?
6:00 is sleeping-in for my kids. |

He's 11 months. He usually goes to bed between 8:30pm-9:00pm and USUALLY sleeps through until at least 7am - sometimes 8am. Once in a while he's up at 6 though...

I also think it helps that Rob and I are night owls, so it's sure to be in his genes as well.

Ah, I put mine to bed at 7, so we are on the other sides of the sleep trade-off.

Mark's back up to 10K in chips and there was a hand at the table that CardPlayer watched that he wasn't involved in: KK vs QQ all-in on the flop. The board shows a straight and the two players choppie-choppie.
He also says he's feeling good at the table and is now comfy. |

Back to 9600. Not much to report. He's playing tight. The player in seat 4 is getting a bit frisky so Mark's hoping to snap him off later when seat 4 has an overpair.

Latest update: down to 9025 now in chips. Missed a big draw hand just before break. No worries though.

Starting to get a bit frustrated. Completely card dead. AJ is the best hand he's had all day. Biggest PP was 33 UTG. 8525 now. It's all good.

"I've won exactly 2 hands and one was blinds on 2nd hand. 8375."

Better Text him back quick and let him know the blinds are only 50/100 right now. So last time I checked, he still has 80+Big blinds. If he starts getting frustrated (which apparently is happening) he won't make it to day 2

Finally! AA in BB. Raised 2 limpers to 500. Both called. 900 bet took it down on ragged flop.
