We’re just past half way through Day 1a and although there are still 283 players we’re starting to see some big pots and players being put to big decisions.
Just now on Table 43 is a good example. We arrived to see 5 players see a flop of 
. Action went check check check and then a player in middle position bet 1500 chips. Players Club member Philippe Plouffe called. The other players folded and then a player check-raised to about 5K total. The player to his left – the initial player who bet the flop – insta-shoved for about 16K. Plouffe insta-folded and the check-raiser was left with a big decision. He covered the all-in player, but not by so much that a call wouldn’t hurt. After a short time in the tank he folded.
