Day 1A Field Size: 1,116

Still liking our 3,000-12,000 number for the overall size of the 2009 main event.

Until I can get back to the Rio (tomorrow hopefully) — and since honestly, I hardly care about Day 1 chip counts ever. Not saying you shouldn\’t also be looking elsewhere, but at the moment I have to really limit my computer screen time, so before I can catch up with everything more in depth online and in real life, I\’m sticking with the clicks that I know will give me the most in a few seconds of skim. I\’d include Wicked Chops, but I get their goods daily via email … and you know, trying to cut back on the screen-stare.
