| Is it possible to get in and rail? Or is it too crowded? Looks like the ME final table is at the Rio this year and not downtown which would leave quite a crowd at the Rio. We may head over to watch, I'm just not sure how early we need to get there. |

| I will be landing in Vegas around 11pm. Is there any chance they will still be playing by the time I get there? |

I would expect that they will be still at the final table then. It might be close. I'm landing about 9:00 and hope that I will get to head straight to the Rio. |

A bunch of us are at the Rio and Matt's tourny just got down to 18 players.
I'm happy to report that Matthew doubled early 99 vs 55. He is up around 58k and thats probably a bit over average stack.
Go Matt! |

First break - Matthew's at 40k in chips with 16 players remaining. This puts the average stack at 45k in chips.
Blinds are 2000/4000 with a 500 ante, which puts Matthew's M at 4, and the average M at 4.5, so there won't be much play with the stack sizes. |
