Here on Day 1b of the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure Main Event, there are a lot of tough tables. With the $100,000 Super High Roller ending yesterday, and the first-ever major Open Face Chinese Poker tournament running as well, dozens of the best players in the world waited until today to play.

Table 10 can certainly be considered one of the tougher tables in the room, because sitting in Seats 8 and 9 are 2012 Players of the Year Marvin Rettenmaier and Dan Smith respectively.

Rettenmaier, winner of the 2012 BLUFF Magazine Player of the Year award, earned over $2.5 million last year, and Smith, winner of the 2012 Global Poker Index Player of the Year award, earned over $3.7 million. The POY races culminated at EPT Prague where Rettenmaier won the €10,000 High Roller ($477,479).

He joined the PokerNews Podcast afterwords to discuss his amazing year:

We'll keep an eye on the pair as they both try to begin 2013 with a bang.
