Poker Is Being Played

Level 1 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Poker is certainly being played - just not discussed.

As the high rollers weave thier way through the first half of the first level the major topic of discussion on the felt has been the upcoming Olivier Busquet and JC Alvarado MMA-style fight.

A date has yet to be determined, but the two did agree on Twitter to make it happen. Today, Jason Mercier is looking for some action on Busquet and may have found a willing gambler in Dan Smith - a good friend of Alvarado's.

In fact, most of the room perked up when they heard Mercier was in the Busquet camp, leading him to surmise he may be willing to get unlimited action on the match.
