The Event #52: $10,000 Limit Hold'em Championship continues to grow and one player who needs no introduction in the poker world has just taken his seat. Erik Seidel certainly knows a thing or two about the game of limit hold'em.

He won his very first WSOP bracelet by taking the down the 1992 $2,500 Limit Hold'em event for $168,000. His next limit hold'em bracelet came after taking down the 1994 WSOP $5,000 Limit Hold'em event for $210,000.

Seidel has now earned more than $34,000,000 and eight WSOP bracelets throughout his illustrious poker career and he's ready to put his starting stack to work.
