2 Everest Players, KindSliders and Viktor have been working hard all day to join the elusive Century Club (hitting $100,000 chips or more) and while Viktor was getting lonely, KingSliders just got enough chips to join him as we head into our dinner break.
It seems Linessa79 is less than one blind-steal away from joining the club as well...
Here are their exact chip stacks and the rest of the Everest Poker Qualifiers rounding outthe top ten:
Categories: World Series of Poker.May. began the day with $37,450, a respectable stack, but a stack that she would need to build if she hoped to emerge strong into the combined Day 3 field tomorrow.
She has made some moves, and just 1 hour ago "tweeted" at EVPWSOP.com:
Though she has fallen a bit according to the leaderboard, she is still sitting pretty with $64,000 which is almost double today's starting stack.
Hopefully today will truly continue to be .May.'s day!
Categories: World Series of PokerEverest Poker Portuguese Team member Daniel Ferreira is playing in todays Day 2A field, and is currently sitting on $11,100 chips.
Here's an early day photo of him, and we will do our best get a had recount from him as well.

Viktor and .May. are both enjoying the comforts of a good table draw, and have made lateral moves in the right direction as the day's second level begins:

Here is a look at the important facts and figures as we say goodbye to the Day 1 heats and hello to Day 2:
Total time played Day 1A through to Day 1D = 96 hours
Total Levels through all Day 1's = 18
Total Entrants = 6,494
Total Prize pool = $61,043,600
Total 1st Place Prize (hopefully to an Everest Poker Qualifier or Team Everest Pro = $8,548,435
Day 1D did not go without controversy. Day 1D hit its cap before everyone who wanted a seat got one. That resulted several hundred players having to skip the Main Event.
When it was all said and done, though, 6,494 players had registered to play for more than $61,043,600 in prize money and a first prize of $8,548,435. That tells me that poker is here, strong, and sticking around for a long time to come.
Categories: World Series of PokerThe cards are in the air and we are excited for the first Day 2 of the WSOP!

Categories: World Series of PokerSometimes in poker, despite being friends or on the same 'team' as another player, you realize this game is a solo sport, and as such, you go to war with people wearing the same colors as you...we were waiting for a battle between Everest Poker Spain Qualifier 'QUEENSBOSS' and Everest Poker France Qualifier 'LocStaOnFire' and we finally got one
...here is the rundown of the first of potentially many rounds...
We came upon this hand between two Everest Players while it was in progress.
On the turn, board looked like this:
7h-5s-6s-Kh
LOCSTAONFIRE checked, and fellow Everest Qualifier, QUEENSBOSS bets out, and LOCSTAONFIRE called.
RIVER: Kd
LOCSTAONFIRE checked, and QUEENSBOSS bets 5,000. LOCSTAONFIRE hesitates, and calls, clearly not believing his fellow Everest Qualifier has anything. QUEENSBOSS reveals Ac-Qc, for pair of Kings with A-Q-7 kicker, proving LOCSTAONFIRE'S hunch right, as he really did not have much. Unfortunately for LOCSTAONFIRE, his opponent was bluffing with the best hand,
as the A-Q was better than LOCSTAONFIRE'S Ah-4h, for a pair of Kings and A-7-6 kickers.
Round 1: QUEENSBOSS
Categories: World Series of PokerPlayers are exactly 1-hour into their 2-hour level 4 and it doesn't appear as though a full stomach is holding back our Everest Poker Qualifiers from moving their chips around.
Here is a look at the Everest Poker Leaderboard:
Categories: World Series of PokerMost players out in the field today will see their battles, getting raised and re-raised dozens of times, and ultimately potentially thousands of times by the time they hopefully reach the WSOP Main Event final table.
Some consider it important to do everything they can to protect their stacks in a heated battle...and one Everest Poker Qualifier....
'Scorpion200'....
....has gone an extra step and hired additional help in making sure his chips are protected....
We dug around to find out that this 'protector of chips' comes from a popular tabletop strategy game entitled "Warhammer: The Game of Fantasy Battles"!
The game has been designed with regiments of fantasy miniatures. It uses stock fantasy races such as humans (The Empire, Bretonnia, Kislev), Elves, Dwarfs, Undead, Orcs and Goblins, Vampires, as well as some more unusual types such as Lizardmen, Skaven and the demonic forces of Chaos. Each race has its own unique strengths and flaws.
WarHammer In Action!
So here is hoping that this little guy does what he's supposed to do, and keeps 'Scorpion200's chips right where they belong, in front of him!
