Timothy "TK" Miles (Tallahassee, FL)

The Day 1A filed is now down to five active tables, with TK Miles (Tallahassee, FL) the newest name to climb up the leaderboard.  Sitting with over 200,000, Miles is another accomplished tournament pro to come out of the Sunshine State.  

Miles has over $1,600,000 in career tournament earnings, amassing (100) recorded results since 2007.  Miles's first breakout score came in 2008, when he finished runner up in the $5,000 NLH Championship Event at the WSOPC New Orleans stop ($210,610).  Six years later, Miles would earn himself another six-figure score, taking down the $3,500 NLH Championship Event during the Summer Poker Open at Hard Rock Tampa ($295,203).

TK is just one of many notables still active in the field, including (but not limited to) Maurice Hawkins, Evan Teitelbaum, David Diaz, Raminder Singh, Luis Gonzalez, and Al Schein.
