Level 4 (Blinds 100/200)
Total Flight 1C Entries: 64

John Palace (Jupiter, FL) 

John Palace (Jupiter, FL) has a pretty solid live tournament resume, with (45) cashes totaling over $82,000.  Fifteen of those cashes are final table finishes, with one of them an outright tournament win, from an event during the Goliath Phamous Poker Series (Planet Hollywood, Las Vegas).  What really stands out about John's resume though, is the fact that he's already cashed (12) times this calendar year, which puts him (32nd) in the world...yes, the world.  These are "recorded" cashes on Hendon Mob, so any daily events that he's cashed at other properties are not listed.  Palace is looking to add another cash in this event, which would put him in the top twenty.  Palace's best year in terms of earnings was last year ($32,795), but he's only $6,000 behind that number already, with lots of time left to go in 2017.  John headlines the second wave of notables in the field, which consists of the following players:

Tom Gity 

Andre Rakusa

Linda Lipkins

Steve Lipkins

Jeffrey Kessler

Ian Cohen

Ralph Spadafore

Moshe Wasser

Kobi Ribak

Players are taking their first break at the end of this level (10 minutes), and will be returning to Level 5, and new blinds of 150/300/25.
