Yesterdays $300 Presidents Day NLHE at the Commerce had 1362 entries, a massive field. I haven’t seen a field like this since the $1500 tournies at the WSOP. Truth is I didn’t see it until today as I was at Santa Anita yesterday. 41 returned today and only poker forum addict, LA cop, Scott Diamond registers on my extensive poker radar. First prize is $92746 and I will keep you posted as far as eliminations are concerned.
41) Trung Tran
40) Adam Gregory
39) Rick Sherrill
38) Eric Reta
37) Larry Vance
Each receives $1784.

A trip, not literally fortunately, down the 40 steep steps to the high limit cash area reveals a big deuce to seven game. Barry Greenstein, Sheiky Sheikram, Johnny Chan, Bill Baxter and John Hennigan are the participants.

The Boatman brothers, Ross and Barny, have arrived safely. Thanks to Virgin airways. They will probably be disappointed that the Commerce area makes Hendon look good.

36) Mark Jun
35) Joe Dorotik
34) Scott Muckey
33) Eric Pratt
32) Mike Porter
31) James Maltz
30) Amir Ghazvinian
