2007 World Series: Day 1C marks big turnout

A few weeks back, most everybody through today would be the last official Day 1. So, folks who didn't want to take a day off between Day 1 and Day 2 told Harrah's they preferred this day. The result, it appears, is that today will be the biggest of the starting flights so far. More than 1,700 players have just sat down in the Amazon Room to fight to be among the finishers in this flight.

Among those sitting down to are Humberto Brenes, Katja Thater, Chris Moneymaker, Vanessa Rousso, and Greg Raymer, not to mention a sea of PokerStars qualifiers who have made their way here today.

We have updated the PokerStars World Series Chip Counts page, so it now has the finishers from Day 1A and Day 1B.

Our Team is wading into the field and is in search of more stories from the floor. I already know of a few that should be very interesting. Stay tuned for more.
