Interesting Table Pairings
Scanning the room, we've found some interesting table pairings with some of the players. Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi and Chino Rheem are seated right next to one another. Both are good friends, but that won't stop them from going at it. If you remember back to our coverage of the WSOP, Mizrachi busted his brother, Robert, from the $50,000 Player's Championship final table. If he did that to his own blood, who knows what he'll do to Rheem at the tables.
Carter Phillips and Dominik Nitsche are at the same starting table. They're rooming together on this trip, but will have no problem taking each other's chips. They battled on the same table yesterday and that didn't stop them from playing pots together.
Hulya Pehlivanlar and Kfir Yamin are right next to one another. These two played heads up last night in a side event. Pehlivanlar took home the title and defeated Yamin, hut he'll have plenty of time today to get her back. He also has direct position on her.
Also seated at the same table are Sam Trickett and Andrew Feldman. These two are good friends and travelled here together. They both final tabled the $25,000 High Roller Freeze-Out and here there are again playing with one another.
