Level 1 : 25/25, 0 ante

Athanasios Polychronopoulos

After winning his second career bracelet just a few days ago in Event #17 $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em, Athanasios Polychronopoulos is going for a back-to-back, third career bracelet today.

Polychronopoulos has proven to be a moving force in the $1,500 buy-in events, winning both of his bracelets in these grueling, 2,000-plus entrant fields. First it was in 2011, where he beat a field of 2,713 for first place, and just a few days ago he beat out 2,105 competitors for his second gold bracelet. Polychronopoulos showed up early today and is looking to build a quick stack as action gets underway in the Brasilia room.
