Multiple WSOP Circuit Winners Making Their Presence Known

Walking through the crowded Amazon Room tournament floor, a few former WSOP Circuit event champions have been noticed accumulating chips at a rapid rate.

Aaron Massey, a young touring pro who has captured two Circuit rings this season (Foxwoods $580 NLH Six-Max & Horseshow Indiana $365 NLH Turbo) has quietly built an above average stack. Massey has made deep runs at the WSOP before, reaching the final table of a 2011 $1,000 NLH event and finishing 8th, and after his most successful Circuit season to date he may be poised to reach yet another final table.

Another Circuit veteran who has emerged as one of the chip leaders here on Day 2 is Alex Masek, the winner of a record-tying six Circuit championship rings. With the field still chocked full of amateurs, Masek continues to punish the smaller stacks and transfer their chips in his direction.

We will continue to track the progress of these WSOP Circuit winners, to see if either can make the leap from ring to bracelet.
