Palma Making Friends

Nicholas Palma is fresh off of a final table showing at the DeepStacks Mohegan Sun National Championship last weekend and is looking for similar success this week on the WSOP circuit.

Palma is on his second bullet today and has more than doubled his stack on Day 1b thus far. He is certainly not shy, chatting up the table and getting laughs from his tablemates. All but one, apparently, according to the table.

"I'm going to take out the guy in the Lacoste hat," Palma said.

All the while, people at the table were giving Palma nicknames. The one that was was most agreed upon was "Mighty Mouth."

"He never stops talking," said one player.

As Palma was getting a good laugh from the commotion, another player added, "He never puts up his antes, either."
