Quote: beachbumbabsAre you sure about Maahs? I thought he didn't play the "first" day, and played on 1B instead. Maybe I misunderstood them when they were talking about it.
Edit:looked but didn't find him on the 1B board so I must have misunderstood the commentators.
I remember hearing the commentators say that Maahs entered on Day 2b/2c and was (obviously) the first person to make the final table without playing on Day 1 of the tournament.
