As is to be expected for a no-limit hold'em event (and one in which aggression is rewarded even more than normal), there are plenty of "name" players in today's field. In the first five minutes of play, we've already spottted: Jon Friedberg; Antonio "the Magician" Esfandiari; the runner-up in Event #2, James Akenhead; new bracelet winner Erick Lindgren; John Juanda; Vanessa Selbst; Roy Winston; Andy Black; Justin Bonomo; Jamie Gold; Alexander Kostritsyn; Ted Lawson; Men Nguyen; the Italian Pirate, Max Pescatori; Joe Sebok; Barry Shulman; Jennifer Tilly; and David Williams.
