Total Day 1A Entries: 158
Day 1A Players Remaining: 38
With the day possibly ending at 19 players (12% of starting field), it was a question if that point would be reached. The bustouts pre-dinner were fast and furious, but since returning the action has been pretty cagey. Gary Schoengold had made a solid return, as the first hand at Table 28 took up almost eight minutes. Schoengold was left to decide on a 22,000 all-in bet on the river from his opponent, on a board of K♥ 2♠ 4♣ Q♠ A♥. Gary was in the tank for a solid five minutes, and although he had a healthy stack behind, his time thinking made it clear he wasn't giving anything away. Schoengold would eventually announce a call, and his opponent would table K♣ Q♣ (two pair). Gary would turn over A♦ K♠ for a better two pair, and he would chip up to 135,000 with the pot.
