Poker in the Pavilion

With players being drained from the Amazon room, and directed to the Brasilia and Pavilion room we continue to find players. Most recently we noticed Jon Turner and Men Nguyen sharing shoulder space. Turner recently made a deep run in Event 46: $2,500 No-Limit Hold'em, and even possessed the chip lead for a good part of day 2, but a few bad spots caused him to make an early exit. Today he looks primed to chase the bracelet.

Other players in the pavilion with a decent sized stack are David "ODB" Baker, Paul Magriel, and Jonathan Aguiar.

The screens are reading 3,112 entrants, but that is set to rise with over an hour and 20 minutes of registration still open.
