Gold Giving It A Go

Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante
Jane Gold
Jane Gold

Jane Gold is probably best known as the mother of 2006 World Series of Poker Main Event winner Jamie Gold, but she's a poker player as well.

She's even got some hardware to prove it. During the 2012 Borgata Winter Poker Open, Gold won the $400 Ladies NLH event, earning more than $10,000 and taking home the BWPO trophy.

Her stack has taken a hit in the early levels, but with this long, slow structure and the Almighty starting stack, she's still got plenty of chips with which to work.

Litsou Looking to Parlay Success in Black Chip Bounty

Level 3 : 200/300, 300 ante
Efthymia Litsou
Efthymia Litsou

Efthymia Litsou was the chip leader entering Day 2 of Event 4: $500 Black Chip Bounty NLH last week. She battled all the way to a third place finish, earning $12,741. That's her best live cash and doubled her previously reported live earnings.

On her final hand in the BCB, she got her chips in good with the lead, but got beat by eventual winner John Lytle. He had a flush draw when the chips went in on the flop and got there on the turn.

Peace...a Good Way to Start the Day

Level 2 : 100/200, 200 ante
Michael Wang

Michael Wang is starting the day in good spirits, wishing us all Peace. Or is that a #2? Or perhaps a gang sign?

Peace sounds like a good way to go, so that's going to be our interpretation.

The WSOP bracelet winner, along with the rest of the room, are off to a slow and sleepy start this extra-early hour, but with 21 tables in action, it won't be long before the Signature Room overflows.

Almighty Starting Stacks
Almighty Starting Stacks

Cards and chips are in motion here in the Signature Room for Flight C of the Almighty Stack. There are 15 tables already in action with plenty of room for late arrivals. Today's flights will be considerably larger than the first two given that these are the "last chance" flights.

If the 26 tables in the Signature Room prove inadequate to handle the volume of players, additional tables will be used in the Poker Room.
