It may not be Louie Tomassi's birthday, but it sure feels like it.
Gifts received already include qaud nines and trip fives on an ace-high flop against two opponents with aces and a willingness to play a big pot.
Tomassi scooped said pot and now sits among the early leaders.

The legend of Scott Aitchison continues to grow here inside the Niagara Falls Poker Room.
His Hendon Mob page was already looking akin to the annual schedule here at Seneca Niagara when he defended his big blind against a raise and a call with the 
moments ago.
Aitchison simply flopped the nut-flush draw, got it in three ways against kings and smaller flush draw and got there on the river to scoop a huge pot and put himself well on the way to yet another notch on his Seneca Niagara belt.

Orchard Park, NY's Dave Paluch claims he's only a Buffalo Bills fan when they win.
They did last night, beating the NY Jets 22-17 in New Jersey, so he's smiling today.
The grin may also be related to the fact he's jumped on board the early-double-up bandwagon here, making a straight on the river to crack one opponent's set and find a spot among the leaders.

After spending the last 100 days losing his mind chasing some mythical six-figure bad beat jackpot across the border, Canadian Cameron Bartolotta came back to his senses and jumped in the first flight of Event #1 here at the 2015 Seneca Fall Poker Classic.
He let lost value in one hand and a counterfeited two-pair in an other drive him to tilt-call a raise and a re-raise with the 
, but got his mind straight flopping a pair and turning trips to drag a huge pot and push up near the top of the early counts.

Seneca Regular John Abraham took most of Yi Wei Lu and Maria Parlatore's chips turning garbage into gold to jump out to the Level 1 lead moments ago.
Parlatore limped what she would later claim was queens before Lu bumped it to 300 from the button with the 
.
Abraham flatted from the small blind and Parlatore three bet to 1,000. Lu and Abraham called, sending the three of them to a 
flop. Abraham checked and Parlatore led for 1,600. Lu and Abraham both called and the turn brought the 
.
Abraham checked again and Parlatore led out for 3,500. Lu flat called before Abraham pushed in for a little more than 9,000.
Parlatore pitched it in the muck, but Lu couldn't fold top two pair. Abraham turned over the prophetic 
and trips held after the 
river.
"They don't like me very much now," quipped Abraham, raking in the chips.
Both Parlatore and Lu were left relatively short, busted a few hands later and bought back in.
