WSOP

Day 5 is in the books with 206 players surviving the day. All surviving players are now guaranteed $48,847 and tomorrow at noon we return to play here in the Amazon room. *Amazon Room not so Amazon Anymore* Yesterday we brought you a picture of the now empty Pavilion room, but today the Amazon room is the one becoming empty. Up until today we had 3 distinct sections in the Amazon room - blue, orange, and red.

Only 7. 8% of the original 7,319 players that started the Main Event this year have survived the first four days of play - 574 for those of you that care to not do the math. Jack Effel has estimated that we will lose at least half of that today and have around 275 players left after the four levels have been finished. We will be here all day to gather up the stories of the day.

Day 4 is in the books, but not before we closed down the Pavilion room and busted the money bubble. Day 5 starts up tomorrow afternoon and at the rate we are going we will buzz through another half of the 576 that return tomorrow before the end of the day. *Ghost Town in the Pavilion Room* Earlier today I ventured over to the Pavilion room to see what if anything was going on over there. What I was greeted by were some maintenance crews working on breaking down the room.

Day 3 is in the books and Day 4 is upon us. There's a quiet buzz going in the Amazon room and a faint whisper in the Pavilion room (only 16 tables started the day over there) about the money bubble. *Bubble Day* It's fully expected that today we will have the money bubble bust for the Main Event. With 1,203 players starting today the field only has to lose 456 players before the bubble is reached.

Day 3 is in the books with little over 1,200 players surviving to come back tomorrow afternoon for Day 4, that still is not enough for them to all be in one room, but they should get there sometime in the first few levels. *No Returning Champs* Shortly before dinner 2010 Main Event Champion Joe Cada was eliminated from this year's Main Event. Not since Johnny Chan won back to back years in '87 and '88 have we seen a repeat champion. Speaking of Johnny Chan, he ended the night with approximately 630k.
