Event 2 (Day 1C): Faces In The Crowd (Part II)

Event 2 ($360 No Limit Hold'em $100,000 GTD)
Level 5 (Blinds 150/300/25)
Total Day 1C Entries: 178
Day 1C Players Remaining: 138
Total Event 2 Entries: 486

Players are continuing to arrive for this final flight of Event #2, with notable Florida-based tournament professional Ory Hen (Cooper City, FL) showing up for his second flight of the event.  While Ory attends the larger guarantee events here at the Isle, there are numerous players across the room that show up for tournaments, whether they are part of a series...or just dailies:

Alfonso Perez (Coconut Creek, FL) is a tournament fixture here at the Isle, recorded (10) cashes on Hendon Mob in 2016 (remember, the "daily" events were not submitted until the final two months of the year).  Those cashes totaled over $31,700 in earnings, with his most recent finish the largest of his career.  Perez reached the final table of the Isle Poker Open Championship ($1,500 NLH), finishing in 8th place, and earning himself $13,840.

Martin Robbins (Lincoln, NH) is another player who's 2016 resume may be skewed a little (without "daily" tournament finishes added), but he still had an impressive year.  Robbins recorded (6) cashes on Hendon Mob, but the total of those cashes equated to over $86,800.  Robbins had a career highlighting score in 2016, reaching the final table of the $570 NLH event during the SHRPO, and agreeing to be part of a nine-way deal (Robbins earned over $79,000 for his share).

Karin Powsner (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) has done most of her damage in the "daily" tournaments, but her 2016 saw her record (7) cashes on Hendon Mob, totaling $5,898.  Powsner's largest recorded cash of the year came just a few weeks ago, when she took home $2,400 as part of a deal in one of the December "Structure Beasts."
