New Table Arrives

More late entries has seen another tough table of players take to the field. Included on Table 354 are the likes of Humberto Brenes, Josh Arieh, Marco Traniello, Matt Schreiber and Jerrod Ankenman.

If those names aren't familiar to you, let us give you a quick run down. Brenes is probably the most well known of these players, with his trademark and boisterous personality adorning our TV screens for many years. Brenes is also known for his long poker career that includes almost $6 million tournament winnings.

Arieh is no slouch on the felt, holding more than $6 million in tournament winnings, including two World Series of Poker gold bracelets. Traniello has been steadily been building a name for himself in poker, with a $10,000 H.O.R.S.E Championship final table posted at the 2010 WSOP.

Schreiber has also been making his name known in poker, with plenty of WSOP cashes including a super deep run in the WSOP Main Event in 2010. Ankenman is definitely one to be feared in this tournament, with Limit Holdem his specialty. Ankenman finished 2nd in the $10,000 World Championship Limit Holdem event in 2008, one of many of his Limit Holdem results at the WSOP.
