As we expected, a majority of the players opted for the shorter 15-minute break rather then the full 90 minute dinner break. It looks as though 16 tables have opted to take the full 90 minutes, meaning that they will not resume play until 8:15ish.
Players are now headed on break, but the length of that break is kind of up to them.
They can opt to either take the full 90 minute dinner break, or take a 15 minute break and resume play. All the players at the table have to agree to be able to skip the dinner break. Either way, there won't be too much action happening for the next 90 minutes

We reported earlier that 2002 Scripps National Spelling Bee Champion Pratyush Buddiga was in the field today and he just eliminated his last remaining opponent to secure his spot in round two. He told us that the player he was heads up against was a good player, but Buddiga claimed victory when his 
bested the other player's .
Jennifer Tilly will be advancing to round two after knocking out the last two players at her table.
In the first hand, Tilly's

Not long after that during heads-up play Tilly raised on the button and her opponent called. The flop came 
and action got checked to Tilly who bet 2,000. Her opponent then went all in for around 10,000 and Tilly called.
Tilly: 
Opponent: 
Tilly's fives were best against her opponent's flush draw and the turn and river of the 
and changed nothing securing Tilly's win.
We are about 13 minutes until the scheduled dinner break, but all of the players will have the option whether to take it or play out their match. We are guessing that most of the players who are heads up will want to play it out, but those that are three and four handed might be more inclined to take the break.
