Today's field has an 'everyman' feel to it. Like many of these $1,500 events during this year's WSOP, the field is awash with every type of poker player one can imagine. Today's field seems particularly heavy on woman players, and maybe a little older than some of the fields we have seen recently. $1,500's in the past have been filled with backwards baseball hat/sunglasess wearing Internet poker jockeys. Today's field is as diverse as I have ever seen.
