Are there two day 2\'s?
The official website shows Tuesday as the only day 2.
But I have heard there are now two day 2's - tues / weds, as is customary with 4 opening days. Tues would be for survivors of day 1a and 1b, and Weds for 1C and 1D. Which is it? |

DVO,
JOEL_ and stephenNUTS are giving you bad information. I've got a strucutre sheet right in front of me. 7/10 is Day 2A. (players from 1A and 1B combine)- six levels 7/11 is Day 2B. (players from 1C and 1D combine)- six levels 7/12 is Day 3. - six levels 7/13 is Day 4. - six levels 7/14 is Day 5. (play down to 36 players) 7/15 is Day 6. (play down to 9 players) 7/16 is a day off. 7/17 is the final table |

Re: Are there two day 2\'s?
wtf
The official website, which is updated to show the new day 1D, doesn't show the new day 2B???? Unbelieveable. We're only looking at 2000 survivors, max, anyway, from day 1. Why do we need two day 2's??? |

I just took it for granted that,if the WSOP site posted this morning after I bought in,and assumed it was correct? I mean the WSOP is only running the damn show,and it sure would be nice if they posted the correct info to begin with to avoid any confusion...lol It was also disgusting today,as at the registration cage this a.m.....it seemed NOT ONE person had any clue what was going on! This is the WSOP M/E for Christs sakes! ~stephen feraca |

Re: Are there two day 2\'s?
According to PokerWire, there were only 450 or so players left from Day 1A. If similar numbers result from Days 1B-D, the best way to go would be one Day 2. Given the apparent size of the field for the entire event (probably about 5000), having two Day Twos would be difficult to handle--you'd have about 900 or so starting each day, but would have to ensure that play ceased when the field was down to about 500 or so. IOW, you would have to have Day 3 starting at a point before people are in the money. DUCY? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] (BTW, this same thing happened last year--Annie Duke was running around trying to explain to anybody and everybody that Day 2A play had to end at least one level earlier than was scheduled, to avoid the problem of people getting into the money, before their Day 2B counterparts had even begun play. She was right, although that didn't make her any less annoying)
I'm expecting either two short Day Twos, or one large and long one, with the possible necessity of using a few tables in the "Tent of Doom" area. As for days off? Who knows? Harrah's will probably exhibit its natural tendency of making the decision that will annoy the most people. |

Re: Are there two day 2\'s?
I expect Day 1a to be the lowest number of players of the four day 1's. Why? People procrastinate. The last minute registrations will be on Monday. And who wants to play on Friday when you can play on the weekend? b, c and d should all outpace day 1a.

[/ QUOTE ] makes sense. and also many recreational dreamers take 2 weeks vacation from work to play so friday might be their travel day. |

Shouldn't they just have ended play when they had the number of remaining players equal to half of the number of players making the money? |
