The unofficial two-day player total (based on the numbers they've been displaying up on the big screens) is 1,515, which smashes last year's total of 1,347. Official numbers should be released overnight.
Anibal Tacla, by our counts, is your unofficial overnight chip leader with right around 166,000 in chips, though several players hovered around the 150,000 mark at night's end. Also near the top of the leaderboard are Paul Wasicka, Annette Obrestad, Matt Graham, Daryll Fish and Phil Ivey.
Team PokerStars Pros Vanessa Rousso, Peter Eastgate and JC Alvarado all had good days on the felt and will return tomorrow for Day 2 player. Teammates Pieter de Korver, Boris Becker, Arnaud Mattern and Lex Veldhuis weren't as lucky, as all four joined the rail at various times throughout the day.
Day 2 is up next. Tune in tomorrow at 12:00 noon EST when our coverage of the 2010 PCA Main Event continues...
Until then, from the Imperial Ballroom in Atlantis... good night and good luck!
