Humberto is chewing gum today. Loudly. And that damn plastic shark just never gets old...
Kevin Vandersmissen raised to 325 from the hijack before the button moved all in for 1,225. Jeff Kimber called out of the small blind and Vandersmissen also made the call to see a flop of

turn and 
river.

One of the many late registrations is Jonathan Spinks in an event he pretty much has stated as a lottery.
"If you can make it past the first five levels or so then you actually have a chance do go deep in this event..."
At that point he then pushed his last 1,500 all in and got a call from the cutoff's 
. Spinks turned over 
and doubled up after a board of 
to remain in the hunt.

Registration is still open for almost another hour, and the field is getting thick. We've ticked up to 2,644 entrants today, bringing the total combined field to an eye-catching 4,576 and counting. If that doesn't impress you, take a look at the history of the $1,000 events since 2009. There were also $1,000 events in 2006 and prior, but none of them generated comparable fields to these:

|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2009 | Event #4 | Steve Sung | 6,012 | $771,106 |
| 2010 | Event #3 | Aadam Daya | 4,345 | $625,872 |

This is the second-largest $1,000 event ever (next to 2009's notable "Stimulus Special"), and -- we think -- the second-largest non-Main-Event field in WSOP history. We'll check a little more thoroughly before we print that, though. Er... wait.
We didn't see how it went down, only walking up in time to see Andre Akkari receiving a double-up. The board showed 
, and Akkari was all in for 4,675. His opponent's cards were mucked, because Akkari's 
was the winner. Just like that, he's close to 10,000 with about 9,800 or so.
