A Pair of Main Event Finalists Spotted Among the Masses

While wandering the endless maze of tournament tables during the first level of Day 1b, Steve Dannenmann and Jake Balsiger were seen trying to build their starting stacks.

Longtime WSOP fans will remember Dannenmann as the affable accountant from Maryland who finished as the 2005 Main Event runner up, losing the title and passing the sugar to Joe Hachem.

Meanwhile, Balsiger was the baby-faced Arizona State University student who finished in third place at last year's Main Event, which saw Greg Merson claim poker's most prestigious prize.
