Main Event Champ Blumstein Joins the Field

Level 1 : 100/200, 0 ante

"Stick to no-limit," someone shouted across the tournament area as Scott Blumstein walked toward his table in the $1,500 Eight Game Mix.

"That's in this, right?" he retorted as he sat down at a table with Jon Turner.

Also in the field is six-time WSOP bracelet winner Jeff Lisandro who in 2009 became the first person to win a bracelet in all three seven-card stud disciplines, winning tournaments in stud, stud hi-lo, and razz, earning himself the Player of the Year title.

Stud Hi-Lo

Catching the action on fifth street, Ron Ware was involved in a pot with one other player. Ware bet and was called. Ware bet again on sixth street and seventh street and was called both times.

Ron Ware: {x-}{x-}/{7-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{6-Spades}/{x-}
Opponent: {x-}{x-}/{A-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{2-Spades}/{x-}

When Ware was called on seventh, he revealed {9-Clubs}{8-Spades}{4-Hearts} for a ten-high straight. His opponent couldn't produce anything better or a low, so Ware took down the pot to chip up a bit early here on Day 1.
