We now have 327 entries (including 106 re-entries) here in Day 1D of the Closer, as the late registration period comes to a close. It’s interesting to note that almost 30% of the entries are re-entries. Everyone is trying to get their hands on a Day 2 ticket, probably because the value will be very interesting.
140 players are still in and the action is, as predicted, crazy. Players are on fire.

Jason’s antics at the table was entertaining to say the least. Both men posed for the camera, as play in level 8 continued.
Here a few photos of the players in level 8.
