Allen Bari plays the game of poker with a perpetual smirk, suggesting that he knows something the rest of us do not. On a recent hand, Bari parlayed his typical brash table talk into a light call.
After a player opened for 9,000 from under the gun, Bari reraised to 24,000, still engaged in banter with Matthew Waxman regarding Bari's choice to leave Waxman hanging on a fist bump.

Today, Miller is proving that his Seniors run was no fluke by duking it out against competitors that, while only half his age, have likely played millions more hands than he ever will.
We just saw Miller drag another pot his way, with the board reading . Miller's value bet of 40,000 was called on the river, and his for the low straight was good enough for the win.

While Phil Hellmuth and Phil Galfond fell short of the money, and Oivier Busquet and Daniel Negreanu busted shortly after cashing, Miller's still healthy stack puts him squarely in contention to reach his second final table in a single week of WSOP tournament play.
