Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

As Level 2 began, 2010 World Series of Poker Player of the Year Frank Kassela took his seat over in the Black section. Of the hundreds of tables at which he might've been seated, Kassela finds himself at one that includes not one but two WSOP bracelet holders -- Barry Greenstein (with three) and David Daneshgar (with one).

In fact, Kassela, who won two bracelets last summer, is sitting right in between them!

Kassela had a memorable Main Event last year, barely making the cash and thus ensuring himself a tie for the WSOP POY with Michael "the Grinder" Mizrachi. Mizrachi was actually at Kassela's table when the latter busted last year, sitting on a very short stack himself. Of course, the Grinder would go on to make the final table and nearly catch Kassela for the POY before falling in fifth.
