I played event 47 day 1a and I thought I played great. we started day 1a with 1759 runners and I ended up busting around 400. Considering I was never dealt AA, KK, or QQ. I had JJ once and flopped trips in level 3. I put a guy allin and he called with AK. Turn Q, River T and made a straight to beat me. That left me a bit crippled early, but I worked my way back time and time again only to finally bust with AJ vs 78. I was down late to 6 Bbs and had to push. It was a good equity call by him but the smirk on his face when he hit his 7 really pissed me off.

I'm off today, will be back at the tables tomorrow

Ok, some statistics. 3128 players sat down between the two days. That created a $2,815,200 prize pool that will be shared among the top 324. The second day 1 ended with a combined total of 476 left to play on day 2. Those people "went deep" in the tournament
