$500,000 Guaranteed Prize Pool
Level 4 (Blinds 150/300/50)
Total Day 1A Entries: 65
Players returned moments ago from their first break of the day, and are now posting new blinds of 150/300/50. The list of well-known poker players continues to grow, and three of them happen to be sharing the same table at the moment:
 |
| David "Chino" Rheem (Los Angeles, CA) is a player who really needs no introduction, boasting a live tournament resume with over $8,000,000 in career earnings. Rheem has three WPT titles (2008 WPT Doyle Brunson Five Diamond Poker Classic, 2013 WPT World Championship, and the 2016 WPT SHRPO $10,000). Chino clearly feels comfortable here in Florida with the recent results he's recorded at Seminole Hard Rock, and will be looking to notch his first ever cash here at the Isle Poker Room. |
 |
| Maurice Hawkins (Plantation, FL) is another player who really needs no introduction, cutting his teeth here on the Florida poker circuit. While Hawkins has been cashing tournaments consistently since the start of his career, it wasn't until 2014 when he would earn his first even six-figure tournament score (and his first WSOP circuit ring). Since that win at the Palm Beach Kennel Club, Hawkins has gone on to earn four more six-figure scores, including becoming the first player to win back-to-back WSOP Circuit Main Event titles (2016 Council Bluffs and Cherokee circuit stops). |
 |
| James Calderaro (Venice, FL) is another Florida native who is well known across the tournament circuit. James has over $2,100,000 in career tournament earnings, with his most notable finish coming in 2009, when he finished just a few spots short of reaching the WSOP Main Event final table (13th Place - $633,022). After numerous notable scores followed, James was once again in the spotlight in 2014, after winning 2014 WPT Lucky Hearts Open ($277,103). |
