Es gab eine Zeit, da war Limit Hold’em das Spiel der ersten Wahl. Diese Zeit ist aber lange vorbei und so waren es auch nur 170 Spieler, die das Buy-In von $5.000 bei Event # 37, dem Limit Hold’em, der World Series of Poker (WSOP) bezahlten.
Das Feld konnte sich durchaus sehen lassen – Daniel Negreanu, John Monnette, Rep Porter, Terrence Chan, Andre Akkari, Bill Chen, David Chiu, Sorel Mizzi, Matt Glantz, Barry Greenstein, Carlos Mortensen, JJ Liu, Joseph Cheong, Andy Bloch und viele Pros mehr waren zur Bracelet-Jagd angetreten.
Bis zum ersten Seat open sollte es gar nicht so lange dauern und mehr als die Hälfte des Feldes musste in den ersten acht Levels an die Rails. Matt Glantz, Carlos Mortensen, John Monnette, Max Pescatori, Maria Ho, JC Tran, Dario Alioto, Dan Kelly, Andy Bloch und einige mehr fanden sich auf der Bustout Liste wieder.
Greg Mueller, der dieses Jahr schon zwei Mal auf Rang 3 landete, erwischte einmal mehr einen sehr guten ersten Tag und baute sein Stack bis zum Ende des Tages auf 94.600 auf. Damit geht er als Chipleader in Tag 2. Auf Rang 2 liegt der Wiener Slavko Todorovic, hat aber doch einen deutlichen Rückstand auf Mueller.
