Strange Start

WSOP says Flight A of Colossus is sold out, but the 20 tables in the Poker Kitchen - Miranda Room are all playing 3- and 4- handed more than an hour into the tourney, and Brasilia Room has broken 9 tables already, with the rest of the room having 1 or 2 empty seats at most of the tables.

We're heading over to Pavilion and Amazon rooms to see if the same is happening there as well. Did the 10am start confuse people, or is 10 percent of the field choosing not to starts for a few hours?

Lance Runs into THE Hand

Losing half his stack early when JJ didn't hold up, Lance '@leftbrainpoker' White of the Buffet Brothers knew better but he played the Holdem Radio Memorial Hand of 88 ... and dang if he didn't hit a set, only to run into a set of Tens and he is our first official Holdem Radio Casualty of the 2015 Colossus.

"I'm one of the people who spent more time in line than I did in the tournament," he said.

Well, Binions had a PLO at 2pm and Nugget has a Omaha8/Stud8 at 11am
