Wow, sometimes my head gives a knot when someone says $15k are peanuts, but after looking at the first prize of the event - almost $1.9M - i realize the world is so big it would be extremely difficult to walk through all of it during a life time. But some guys don't consider it unachievabe, and one of those 172 left will have to take all that money home. Everyone wants it, many knows they don't have what it takes to reach it, some know they are able to get it, few have defined a strategy to stick the closest possible to it, but only one will put the hands on it.

Is it me, or this year PCA is getting to the final table really fast? Seems to me that there is some Isildur efect in the live tournments now! Too mkany bluffing hands getting caught!
$ 15k peanuts? I would even appreciate such a huge price! But as you can see in one day can change everything, Ashton Griffin was on the 2nd day chip leader and now crawling on the border of the abyss for the tournament. Let's see how it looks today

Another day ends at the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure, with Patrick Kelly leading the main event with just 59 players remaining. They return at noon for a day that would typically involve playing down to 24, although they could play on a little longer
