Erik Cajelais Killing Day 1

Level 8 : 200/400, 50 ante

Erik Cajelais has been a massive force throughout the entirety of Day 1, and his current stack of 50,000 is one of the biggest in the room. Cajelais may not be a household name, but he certainly has collected many poker accolades that have helped to establish his place in the poker world.

Cajelais burst onto the poker scene with his first cash at the World Series of Poker in 2006 finishing 19th in a $5,000 No Limit Hold'em event. Since then Cajelais has been able to score several notable finishes in WSOP events. In 2007 Cajelais finished in second place in a $5,000 Pot Limit Omaha event. Cajelais most noteworthy finish, however, came at the 2009 World Series of Poker Europe where he won Event 2 - £2,500 Pot Limit Hold'em/Omaha.

Cajelais is a force to be reckoned with and those at his table are surely fearing not only his massive tattooed guns, but also his massive chip stack.
