More Faces
In the middle of the three tournament rooms, the two dangerous Noah's -- Boeken and Schwartz -- will be battling each other as table mates for the bulk of the day.
At a nearby table, Team PokerStars Pro Nacho Barbero is here trying to add an EPT trophy to keep his LAPT trophy company on his mantle. He's got a tough seat, though, one to the right of the Russian terror that is Vitaly Lunkin.
EPT Champions? Sure. We already mentioned MacPhee and de Korver, but we've also spotted Carter Phillips (EPT Barcelona), Christophe Benzimra (EPT Warsaw), Sebastian Ruthenberg (EPT Barcelona), Jens Kylonnen (EPT Copenhagen), and of course, Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier (PCA).
A smattering of others:
Nabil Matta (2009 Lebanese Poker Champion)
Craig Bergeron
The Brothers Binger (Michael and Nick)
Dan Shak
Russel Carson (EPT Snowfest runner up)
Men Nguyen
Jon "FatalError" Aguiar
Ty Reiman (PCA runner up)
And Team PokerStars Pros Andre Akkari, Joep van den Bijgaart, Thierry van den Berg, Ruben Visser, Marcel Luske, and Ivan Demidov.
Phew.
