Big pots will come in later stages as players are warming up during the first level.
John Monnette, who won the no-limit single draw version of this tournament a few days ago, has just won a minor pot against Talal Shakerchi.
Monnette defended his big blind against Shakerchi's open from the button and then discarded two. Shakerchi took three and they checked the following betting round.
Both players drew two on the second draw and Monnette check-called this time. The final draw saw both players take one, and Monnette scooped the pot with an uncalled bet.

John Monnette is chipping up from the very beginning. He just won another pot after calling Eric Kurtzman's bet on the last street.
Kurtzman showed 
for ten-perfect but Monnette had that beat with his rough eighty-seven, showing

So far, it seems that John Monnette's table is the one that deserves the attention. Every hand brings some drama; at least if any action during the first level can be considered as a drama.
Monnette is the main character of the first level. Recently, the three-time WSOP bracelet winner lost against Shawn Buchanan and then got the chips back, albeit from Jyri Merivirta's piles.
Hand #1:
Buchanan raised from the cutoff and Monnette flatted from the small blind. Monnette took one and Buchanan two and the betting round brought some fire as Monnette bet-three-bet. Buchanan raise-called.
Monnette patted and Buchanan drew one before calling Monnette's bet. Buchanan drew one again on the third draw and both players tapped. Buchanan found what he needed when he looked on his new card, turning over 
which was enough to beat Monnette.
Hand #2:
The next hand saw Eric Kurtzman open from the cutoff and button Monnette called, inviting small blind Jyri Merivirta to the pot. Talal Shakerchi folded in the big blind.
All three players changed two and Kurtzman continued with a bet. He received two calls.
Merivirta took one on the second draw while Kurtzman and Monnette changed two again. This time Merivirta led to the pot, forcing a fold from Kurzman but a raise from Monnette. Merivirta called.
He changed two this time while Monnette stood pat. Merivirta checked to Monnette who didn't miss an opportunity to bet and Merivirta couldn't pay anymore, leaving the pot to Monnette.
