Event 1 (Flight P): You Know The Old Saying

Event 1 ($150 Monster Stack NLH)
Level 1 (Blinds 25/50)
Total Flight P Entries: 65


Kenneth Bruno (Lake Worth, FL) and Bruce Smith (West Palm Beach, FL) are flipping the script in today's 11:00am flight.

We all know the old saying, "If you can deal them the bad beat...then join them," or something along those lines.  Both Kenneth Bruno (Lake Worth, FL) and Bruce Smith (West Palm Beach, FL) are poker dealers at Palm Beach Kennel Club, but today they are leaving work on the back burner.  Both dealers are accomplished poker players in their own rights, with Bruno carrying with him a tournament resume over $81,000 in career earnings.  His largest cash came here at the Isle during the 2014 Florida State Poker Championships, after final tabling a $1090 NLH event (7th Place - $13,392).

Bruce Smith (West Palm Beach, FL) is also no stranger to the Isle, earning his largest cash ($4,985) during this exact series in 2013 ($330 NLH).  Smith saw some recent success here earlier this year, when he final tabled the "Monster Stack" event during the FSPC (7th Place - $1,790).  

These two dealers are just a couple in the group of familiar faces sitting in this early afternoon flight.
