2010 WSOP Event #49 info

[lkport]

Event #49 of the 2010 World Series of Poker is a No Limit Holdem Event. this $1,500 buyin event attracted 2,543 players. The $3,433,050 prize pool will be distributed to the top 270 players. The lowest payout is $2,780 while the bracelet winner will bank $609,493. With attendance at these $1,500 events so high, I think it might be safe to say that the expansion of the $1,000 events may slow or possibly shrink.

This event played down to 315 players on the first day. As with most big events, chip counts are incomplete for the first day so there is no way to really tell who is left in or what the big stacks are. Tomorrow there should be a better grasp of these things.

There are now 23 players remaining in this event. No names really stand out to the casual viewer
