"Poker is fun, for ev'ryone"

Prahlad Friedman
Prahlad Friedman
Infamous white rapper/professional poker player Prahlad Friedman has been spotted amidst the field, sitting across the table from two-time WSOP Main Event Champ Johnny Chan. You might remember Friedman from his televised confrontation with Jeffrey Lisandro, in which the two argued over a missing 1,000 ante during the 2006 WSOP Main Event. While the dispute fell short of actual punches being thrown, Lisandro did threaten, "I'll take your head off!"

Friedman, an L.A. native, is sitting with 17,500 in chips as we approach the third break of the day.
