Mike,
Do you know what blind levels they go to for the all the Day1? I imagine if they are combining the groups for Day2A and Day2B that they have to start at the same blind level somewhere.
Everyone starts w/ 10K, right?
Who’s the most interesting people that survived?
I noticed Brad Garrett made it in Day1A

Fupa, blind levels for day 1:
Round 1 50-100
Round 2 100-200
Round 3 200-400
Round 4 200-400 ante 50
Round 5 300-600 ante 75
Round 6 400-800 ante 100
They will play 6 more rounds on day 2. This year they increased the starting chips to 20,000 but they did double the blinds. Most Interesting? I like Phil Gordon but Allan Cunningham, Paul Wasicka, Jeff Madsen are all they type of player that I enjoy watching. Brad Garrett has about 80k in chips to start day 2. Back to the blinds and increase in chips if you go to my Day 1A post you will see at the end of the 2nd paragraph a link to hard boiled poker that has a good representation of the effect of the changes.
