Wild day.
Got a good starting table, but it worsened as the day got later.
Was crippled 3 times -- twice extremely crippled. All three of these were late Day 1. First I was at 2300, and ran it to 13,400. then I was down to 1600 and ran it to 19,800. Then I was down to 5100 and ran it to 22,000, where I ended the day.
I am 106/160 in chips (22k), and only 36 people cash. 319 people entered the event.

Fortunately I have position on monster stack William Toh (83,500) who is currently 3rd in chips. I don't know anyone at the table aside from Bardah. Ronnie and I were at the final table at the $5k Limit event in 2013, and we were essentially tied for the Day 2 chip lead in that one (I was slightly ahead). I finished 5th, he finished 3rd.
We start at 2pm.
