The one problem with these tournaments (I'll have a trip report up at some point this week - this room and series are both very well run) is their start time of 10 AM, especially when I didn't get there until 10:30 the night before. The play was typically ugly save for the 18-21 "this is my WSOP" online crowd, but in a largely "when is this over so that I can go to sleep?" performance, I basically played Event 1, a 300+40, on autopilot for six hours, got it in as just over a 40/60 shot to somewhere around triple up to a nice stack, and lost. There weren't even any interesting hands involved - possibly one or two at most. A couple of people I know've had better luck; after bouncing all over the map and constantly sucking out (heh), Shaundeeb took fifth for around 8K, and Kalen (another roommate from the WSOP) is CL 4 handed for a nice first prize of 34K.
