The Race Trophy Final kicked off last night in fine style with a welcome dinner at the classic Viennese Restaurant 'Osterreicher In Mak' followed by a night of partying at Passage nightclub.

Wiener Schnitzel was in high demand as the players got a chance to get to know each other over some fantastic traditional Austrian cuisine and then let their hair down at one of Vienna's hottest nightspots.

There was a little bit of tension early in the evening with the players getting their first chance to really feel out their opponents for Saturday, but as the drinks flowed everybody loosened up and really enjoyed the night.

Today the players will get to see the sights in Vienna with a guided tour of the city followed by another Team dinner at one of Vienna's many fine restaurants. With $500k on the line tomorrow I'm sure all the players thoughts will be firmly set on poker and the dinner table talk tonight should be very interesting.
