"I want to go on record as saying that Thomas Wahlroos is the worst limit holdem player in the world," announced a certain caveman radio host as I walked past their table last night.  Thomas was down to a few thousand chips while Gavin Smith was around the starting amount of 10k after a few levels of play.

Gavin busted soon after while Thomas ended the night as chip leader. 

Thomas has been playing well today and currently sits within the top five.  It looks like Thomas is starting to find his A-game.

James Gorham has a crushing chip lead with 150k after starting out around 50k.  James already has one final table under his belt this summer with a 5th place finish in the $1,500 Limit Holdem event.  He won the bracelet in the last $1,500 No-Limit tournament before the main event in 2006. 

I also noticed that Howard Lederer is hanging around the top of the leaderboard, but I was too afraid that his stare would burn a hole through my skull so I stayed away from his table. 

Although that may be a better fate than experiencing the look of disappointment he gave JDN after bubbling the $2500 HORSE event last night.
