Mama Czar and Papa Czar

World Series of Poker bracelet winner Brian "theczar19" Piccioli is one of the most successful poker players from this region of the world. Piccioli isn't here for this series — he's currently in Playa del Carmen playing online poker and enjoying the sun — but his two proud parents are looking to follow his path to success on the felt. Diana and Dan Piccioli are seated at adjacent tables here in Event #1. Diana told us that she and her husband are called "Mama Czar" and "Papa Czar" by some of their friends.

We'll keep an eye on the Czars throughout the day.
