Yves Fequiere (Miami, FL)

While it's great to see "big named" poker players circle this tournament on their schedule, these series wouldn't exist without the loyalty of the "regulars" that frequent the poker room.  Yves Fequiere (Miami, FL) would be one of those "regulars," a player who has earned a good fraction of his career earnings here at the Isle Casino Poker Room.  It should also be mentioned that a lot of these local players that have been featured on the blog, have extensive resumes beyond Hendon Mob ("daily tournament" results are not sent to Hendon Mob).  So while Yves shows over $98,000 in tournament earnings, it's likely that number would be well past the century mark had those results been included.

Fequiere headlines the list of "regulars" scattered across the current Day 1B field:

Taylor Dean-Lipson, David Albertson, Joseph Christman, TJ Shulman, Frederick Allenspach, Ronald Levy, Rachel Abut, Barry Price, Jose Chapui, Michael Newman
