The poker room is about as full as you'll ever see it, with most every table in action on the tournament side...as well as numerous cash games (11 to be exact). The cash game action is spread across limits that would appeal to most every player. You could join a 1/2 No Limit game, a 2/5 Pineapple game, or if your preference is "nosebleed," try out the 100/200 Mixed Game that is running at the moment. We continue our "Faces In The Crowd" feature with some names that should sound familiar to followers of the blog.

Raymond Rickard (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) was the winner of the first "daily" event to ever be blogged here at the Isle. He asked to be mentioned as "Dirt," and since then, the nickname has just stuck. "Dirt" has just under $9,500 in career earnings, with his best cashing coming here at the Isle during the 2015 Isle Poker Open (Event 14 - 2nd Place $4,400). |

Yesterday we posted numerous different "couples" in the field, and while the next two players are a pair, it's a pair of brothers. Nestor Caraballo (Miami, FL) is only a few tables away from his brother at the moment, and needs to do some work to catch up to Hector's resume. Nestor has over $9,300 in career tournament earnings, with his highlighting score coming earlier this year during the "Isle April $100,000 Guarantee," when he finished in 5th place for $5,139. |

The more accomplished of the two Caraballo brothers (Hector) has over $39,000 in career tournament earnings, and also has Isle to thank for his career highlighting score. In 2012, Hector finished in 3rd place during a $100 buy-in ($100,000 guarantee) event here for over $10,300. |
