Hey, Hey, Hey - It's Day 1a!

Of course, the real reason for the assemblage is the poker that will take place here over the course of the next week. This is a World Poker Tour event, with two Day 1 flights and five full days of poker after that before we determine a champion.
There was an extended party last night with lots of booze flowing. It should be interesting to see which of the notable players have made the trek to the eastern edges of the Mediterranean Sea for this event turn up today and which sleep off their hangovers and wait until tomorrow to play.
Play is scheduled to start just after noon local time, in about thirty minutes. We're already hard at work in preparation to bring you highlights of all of the action. Stick around!
