End of Day 1 for Team Paddy
Go Thomas Go!
Good, if delayed news from Day 1B of the WSOP Main Event. Irish Open final tablist Thomas Finneran bagged up 39,000 in chips at the end of a very long first day at the Rio. blinds will be 500/1000 on his return, with his quest for fame and fortune continuing on Tuesday. I’ll be there, unless I’m layed up with flu again…..Vegas is not a good place to have flu…
Hard luck to our other qualifers who’s efforts failed to get them through the typically massive field since I last posted.
Reggie Corrigan lastest until midnight, no mean feat in itself. He said he enjoyed the experience completely….now he’s off to Florida to recover!
Anthony Donohoe’s AK were no use against JJ with only 1 hour to go until the end of the day in the wee hours!
Noel Byrne nursed a short stack to Donnacha O’Dea’s right for most of the day before being eliminated.
Not much poker for me besides the cash game i’m sniffling myself through right now over in Paris Casino (currently back over in Bally’s after they just fixed the internet connection). The one upside of not having the internet in you room here is to catch the sight of an American cable guy. Let me just say they make the hotel corridors very very wide here for a reason.
Back to the action for me, hopefully for a couple of hours. Early sessions have been mixed and I think i’m down a few hundred overall. Plenty of time to correct that though. Another ten days of grinding should bring some results!
Night Night / Morning Morning!
