We were walking through gold section when we saw Matt Glantz take his seat. He sat down at a rather tough table as well.

We'll keep posted as we see more and more tough table draws.
Tough Day 1 Table Draws
Level 1
: 25/50, 0 ante
It's still early and some players are filling in, but we've already seen quite a few tough table draws. At one table we have David "Doc" Sands, Humberto Brenes, and Cherish Andrews (who happens to be sporting a new Team Ivey Pro Patch).
In the bronze section we have arguably the toughest table though. That table contains Jason Mercier, Dario Minieri, Tony Gargano, Kevin Saul, Darren Elias, and Matt Berkey. Mercier didn't seem to pleased about his table and he tweeted this:
My table draws have been fairly outrageous so far this wsop. 6 handed in the 3k shootout Atm, tony gargano, Dario, Kevin Saul, Elias, BerkeyFollow @JasonMercier
