Event 13 (Day 1B): Face In The Crowd (Part I)

Event 13 ($1,500 No Limit Hold'em Championship Event)
$500,000 Guaranteed Prize Pool
Level 1 (Blinds 50/100)
Total Day 1B Entries: 44


If it's DFS (daily fantasy sports) related, the likelihood is that Sheddy Siddiqui (Pembroke Pines, FL) knows about it, and has an educated opinion on the subject as well.  The Florida based poker pro is making an appearance in his third event of the series, and while he hasn't cashed in the prior two, his tournament resume ($1,234,000 in earnings) is reason to believe that a deep run in this event is never in question.

James Hamburger's (Hollywood, FL) has been a staple during most each event of this series, so it's really no surprise to see him in this Day 1B field.  With over $1,400,000 in recorded online earnings, and close to $50,000 in live tournament earnings, Hamburger would have to be considered a good candidate to get his second cash of the series (Event #6 - 27th Place $416).

Michael Tufaro (Fort Myers, FL) already had an Isle Open Poker title to his name, coming in last year's $350 No Limit Hold'em Event #7.  Tufaro already has a deep run to speak of from this series, reaching the final two tables in efforts to defend his title this year.  Tufaro finished in 17th place during this years installment of the $350 NLH, and earned himself $1,685.
