Day 1a of the World Series of Poker Circuit Main Event at the Bicycle Casino has come to a close and almost half the starting field has been eliminated. At the end of play 150 players remain of the 299 that entered and Brandon Crawford is the chipleader with 115,000.
It was not an easy day for many of the notable players that began the day. Bryan Devonshire was eliminated on the first hand he played when he made a king-high straight and his opponent made Broadway. Joining Devonshire on the rail are Allen Cunningham, Jerry Yang, Jeff Madsen, Tuan Le, Aaron Massey, Owais Ahmed, Kelly Kim, Tuan Le and Ray Henson. We expect to see most of those players during the evening flight.
It wasn't all bad news for notables; moving on to Day 2 are "Miami" John Cernuto (21,000), David "ODB" Baker (28,000), Nick Rampone (17,000), Thor Hansen (31,000) and Steve Brecher (37,000).
Day 1b is scheduled to start at 7 p.m. and we'll continue to cover all the action. Day 2 will have cards in the air at 12 p.m. PST and be sure to follow all the WSOPC action live on Pokernews.com
