With tables breaking immediately, these players will soon make their way into the Amazon Room.
With roughly 10,000 in the pot and the board spread 
we found Rep Porter tossing in an orange 5,000-denomination chip while announcing a bet of 4,000.
"Oh gosh!" stated his lone opponent in the hand before making the call.
Porter tabled his for a flopped set and his opponent casually flashed his 
and threw them into the muck.
"I lose with those every time!" Porter's opponent added before gracefully adding, "good hand!"
As Porter raked in the pot to move to just under 40,000, he shrugged and said, "good hand!"
Actor and impressionist Kevin Pollak opened to 750 before the flop and received a call from a player in the cutoff.
On the 
flop, Pollak continued with a bet of 700, and after his opponent flatted the turn came 
.
Pollak slowed down on fourth street, and when he tapped the table for a check, the cutoff fired out a bet of 1,200 to force the fold.
After making a deep run in last year's Main Event, finishing in 134th place and drawing the attention of the cameras as he's done for three decades in Hollywood, Pollak is hoping to recapture that magic here today.
Tony Dunst opened to 300 from under the gun, two players called in position, and a third player three-bet to 1,525 in the small blind. Dunst and a player in the hijack called.

Following a limp under the gun, Mike Sexton limped also next to act along with the button and small blind before the big blind tapped the table.
The flop landed

One of today's players is actor Robert Iler, famous for his portrayal of A. J. Soprano in the mob drama The Sopranos. Early in the Main Event, Iler is living up to the infamy of his character's fictional family, virtually bumping off opponents. We haven’t seen him felt anyone yet, but he’s off to a good start.
In a recent hand, on a flop of 
, Iler bet out for 250, and the button and the big blind both called. The turn was the 
, and action checked to Iler, who bet again, this time for 450. The button folded, but the blind called. The dealer then completed the board with the

We caught our PokerNews colleague, and recent bracelet winner Chad Holloway involved in a confrontation with his friend and fellow Wisconsin native Eddie Blumenthal.
The board read 
by the river with nearly 7,000 in the pot already, and Holloway had two orange T5000 tournament chips in front of his cards, having check-raised Blumenthal's bet of 3,100.
Blumenthal tanked for a solid minute, while Holloway did his best impression of a statue, but eventually Blumenthal tossed out his own pair of orange chips for the call.
Holloway's sigh told the story, and Blumenthal rolled over 
for top pair on the turn. After flopping the nut flush draw, Blumenthal had found a red card that worked just as well as a diamond, and with this win he is off to a great start here at the Main Event.
On the 
flop, pro Barry Hutter tossed out a bet of 400 when his opponent checked, but a raise to 1,200 forced a quick fold.
