Oh, Great

The players at Table #15 already had to deal with Phil Ivey, Bill Edler and Noah Boeken. Just making his appearance in today's event was Doyle Brunson, who just took his chair in Seat #2.

Also buying in very late was Ted Forrest and Hoyt Corkins. And we just saw Anna Wroblewski walking around the floor with a seat card in her hand.

Very Late Arrivals

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

You can register for events through the first two levels of an event and a number of well-known players just beat the deadline. Gabe Kaplan just bought in, as did Vivek Rajkumar and Josh Arieh. Max Pescatori, fresh from winning a bracelet in Event #24, the $2,500 Pot-Limit Hold'Em/Omaha tournament, has also just taken a seat.

Tough Table

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Not that there are many easy tables in a $10,000 buy-in event, but Table 23 looks especially nasty. Seated there are Joe Sebok, J.C. Tran, Michael Mizrachi, Huck Seed, and Theo Tran.
