Ed Jaffy (Boca Raton, FL)

The tournament clock is currently ticking down on Level 8, and when the clock hits all zeros, players will be going on a (60) minute dinner break (6:10-7:10pm).  Ed Jaffy (Boca Raton, FL) may be soft-spoken, but he's making some noise at the moment.  The research on Jaffy show results dating back to 2007, but only lists (10) recorded results over the span of the last nine years.  The noticeable thing about those cashes...when Ed cashes in an event, he's usually going deep.  Eight of the ten cashes on his resume are over $1,000, and we are referencing events that carry smaller buy-ins ($100-$500).

Jaffy is the leader in the room now before dinner, but it's where things finish for the day that matter, and he knows that.  His 130,000 stack is just one of two in the field that have eclipsed the century mark:

Ed Jaffy - 130,000

Jose Chapui - 110,000

Michael Ortiz - 95,000

Joe Niblett - 80,000
