Strictly speaking not related to Day 2A/B, but Neil's table for tomorrow
Day 2C Table Amazon 102 1 Jon Hoellein (USA) 174K. $316K in live earnings but it's taken him 16 years to do that. 176th in 2005 Main, 2 cashes this series including $22K for 29th in the $10K PLO 2 William Steffin (USA) 18K. There are 2 William Steffin's in Hendon Mob and they could well be the same person, with over 50 cashes to his name but only 3 small ones at the WSOP. Mostly plays $200-300 tournaments 3 Jeffrey Cvetezar (USA) 32K. There's only one Jeffrey Cvetezar (sing it with me) and he has only one recorded cash, $16007 for 863 in last year's Main Event. 4 Bernard Lee (USA) 102K. A different kettle of fish altogether. Over 2 million in live cashes dating back the 2005 Main when he finished 13th for $400K. Also cashed in main in 2010 & 2012. Was close to getting his first bracelet a month ago when losing heads-up to Frank Kassela in Event 13 (2-7 lowball draw) 5 Derrick Brown (USA) 41K. 3 live cashes for between $2600 & $3600. Most recent was 7th in a Rio Deepstack at the start of June. 6 Neil Channing (GBR) 15K. Current Sky Poker Ambassador. Future WSOP ME winner. 7 Ryan Hartmann (USA) 72K. Nearly 100 live cashes since 2005 for a total of almost $800K. 3 cashes this WSOP. Biggest cash is $145K at a WPT in 2012, finished third to Noah Schwartz and Byron Kaverman. Never cashed ME. 8 Haresh Jethani (USA) 73K. 1 cash in 2011 WSOP, 2 in 2016 WSOP and 1 so far this year (263rd in the Marathon for $3934). Outside that just one cash, $10K in a WSOP Circuit event 5 years ago, so probably plays very few live MTTs 9 Angie Gelinas (CAN) 178K. Biggest stack at the table, 11 lifetime cashes over 10 years, the biggest being $17K for 578th in the 2015 ME. No other WSOP cashes. FT'd a small ($250) Ladies event at the Orleans a week ago for nearly $3K.
Met a few last night, all really nice guys, it was really good of Mr.K to introduce me to some even though he had lost his batteries for his hearing aid, apparently he couldn't understand what I was saying.
Eamonn ( CPFC 2010) is more awesome in person than he is online, his good lady Sharon is so lovely - he runs well.
In Response to Re: WSOP Main Event, Day 2A - the continuing Tale of the Fab Four : He needs to turn up first. I was due to meet him at Laguna Bar, Palazzo last night at 7.45pm. He turned up promptly at 1am. Posted by Tikay10

It was bad idea to try and get 40 winks before the welcome meet.
Have made it to the Rio today, having breaky at H@sh House A Go Go and then will be down promptly :-)
