$1500 NL

As Shannon Shorr would put it, I "limped into day two" of this $1500 NL with 11,000 in chips, which will be just nine big blinds when play resumes Sunday at 2. It could have been even less but I got in a couple of uncalled shoves without looking at my cards to end the night.

It won't take long before the money is reached, with or without me.
