Palevic and Saliba Enter; Jacobs Re-Enters
Level 2
: 100/200, 0 ante
Rifat Palevic won his very first bracelet this summer in Las Vegas after taking down Event #39: $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em Super Turbo BOUNTY and he entered recently along with John Racener and Vivian Saliba. Bianca Jacobs re-entered and a new table opened, which also required the next big blind to move. Of course no other than her nemesis Georgios Koliofotis was moved over, and this should ensure some fireworks in the next few hours.
