The Snorer vs T Preston 1st round match was pretty great. Went for about 2 hours. Would have been incredible to watch as a televised final table.

There hasn't been an update in over an hr for this @ pokernews. Will it kill them to make-up a bracket and throw it up in the photo gallery or w/e?

Anybody from pokernews that reads these forums: can u post an e-mail address where we(meaning I) can send suggestions or something? This is just bananas now.

No Bye
Yes, earlier we wrote that Justin Bonomo has received a first-round bye, and we reported that because they announced it twice to the entire room. But "ZeeJustin" did play a first-round match, against Annie Duke, and he was eliminated.

So how many people are still in this? Pokernews is confusing and seems to have random stuff all over the place. Cardplayer says Taylor Caby is still in, I haven't seen Townsend's name anywhere.

Pokernews or anyone cannot do a bracket because Harrahs is not doing it that way. When a player wins their match they go to a desk, get their win recorded, and then pick a seat card for the next match. So there is no bracket to say winner of match 17 players winner of match 24 or such. It is completely random from round to round, and there is no bracket to read.

There was a published list of who was playing who in round 1. I am sure there will be in round 2 as well... even though there were 120 byes in round 1.

I think they should play down to 6 players, and 2 of them should get a bye. This is by far the fairest format.

392-196-98-49- (1 person gets a bye)48-24-12-6(2 ppl get a bye) -4-2-1

This is better b/c only 3 ppl get byes apposed to 130, or whatever it was.
