His Guest, Anthony, plays tomorrow (today), on Day 1c, as does Nutter5932, aka Ben Nuttall.
We are all as pleased as punch. We have a Day Two presence guaranteed, & he's in good shape, with 75 x Big Blinds.
We'd all have settled for that at start of Play today.
Thanks Tikay Great coverage today, go get some well earned sleep all of you, i am looking forward to the rest of the event Having seen and heard Will`s play from last years event 75 BB`s is plenty Go Will Good night I`m off to work Gary
Hi Guys Well done Will, as you know you cant win it on the first day, so dont be down at the amount of chips you take into day two, you have the ability to turn this around. Keep it going lad. Good luck to the others
Best of luck Will. If anyone beats you just go mental and shout "Idiot from <insert location>, calling with <insert winning hand>" - works for someone :-)
This appears to be his Opening Table. If you know anything about any of these Players, tell us! We won't tell Will.

Hi Col, yep thats correct,
Ray Rahme, the 2007 WSOP Main Event 3rd and Craig Hopkins the Chip Daddy and poker pro both have position on our Will - it's going to be a long day!

Hopkins cashed 5th in the stars Caribbean Adventure in 2008 for $450,000 (!)

I reckon Hopkins is looking across at Will and thinking "Oh no, I've been drawn against the guy who came 118th last year in the main event of the WSOP" !
Gl Will, I have never played you since you are way above my level of play, but i wish you all the best and hope the poker gods are smiling down apon you.
End of Level 6, which is the 2nd Level played today.
He's on a very aggro Table, & "spots" are far & few between, so it's a waiting game right now, & that won't phase him - any half-decent player has to be able to wait out the thin spells, the card-droughts, & Will has that ability. Very few players have sufficient patience, in any Tourney, but you have to be especially patient with this structure. And you can afford to be, the Structure is gorgeous.
What are his ambitions for today tikay? Will getting through be enough or has Will set himself a chip target? Is the atmosphere any different at the Rio now that the day one circus is behind us?

Great fightback from Will clawing back those chips....
Must admit he did have us worried when he started bleeding chips.....
Well done mate and take a breather until day 2
Good luck in your day 1 Nuts!!!
I've just finished the review of Day 1B which you can read here in my blogs section
Will's done a grand job today and we're 1 from 1 through to Day 2 :-)
It's over to Ben & Anthony tomorrow, I'll be putting up a blog previewing their action around 6pm UK time, where you can wish them well.
Right now it's just turned 1am in Vegas and I'm off to bed!
G'Night
The silly ol' duffer's still wandering around the forum if I know him!
G'night!
Well done on making day 2 Will .. GREAT JOB,
Good luck to the rest of the team, hope there are more success stories to come

Thanks Colin.
OK, let's do the Will Brewin Day 2a TimeLine on here.
Play has commenced, & they play FIVE Levels today.
We interviewed him this morning, he's settled, comfy, & confident, & I then talked to him at Table, ditto ditto.

90 minutes into the first Level of the day.
VERY comfortable at his Table. It will take a "big on big" to bust him, I fancy.

Good Luck Will, I have every faith that you can mix it with the big boys and out play them! Get it won imo:)
End of today's first Level.
