Thomas Finneran has just been dealt his first hand in Day 2A of the WSOP Main Event. 900 players are in the room today to give Harrah’s some room for some side event reg fees.

He’s feeling happy, on 39k and the blinds are starting at 500/1000 with a 100 ante so he’ll need to get busy soon.

Other Irish notables speckle the room. Father and son, Donnacha and Eoghan O’Dea both with healthy stacks. George McKeever, 1999 final tablist, and 2007 omaha side event bracelet winner Alan Smurfit are looking to take down the $8.5ml first prize!
It’s slightly cloudy today for the first time since I touched down, reason enough to go outside now that it’s bearable.

A warning to all, don’t drink the tap water in Vegas. Trust me on this one.
