Defending Champion Brian Rast Enters

Level 1 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Brian Rast has taken his seat at Table 718, the same table as Matthew Ashton, Abe Mosseri, Harry Madoff, and Brett Richey. Last year, three-time bracelet winner Rast lifted the trophy for the second time in his career and won $1,296,097.

Another player to jump into the action is none other than 10-time bracelet winner Johnny Chan, who sat down at the same table as Scott Seiver, Bruno Fitoussi, Daniel Alaei, and Isaac Haxton.

"Johnny Chan the Master!" quipped an ecstatic Seiver as the poker legend sat down. "There's no room for Phil Hellmuth, though," he added.
