Level 2 (Blinds 50/100)
Total Flight 1A Entries: 34

| Stephen Smith (Juno Beach, FL) |
One of the first players to take a seat in this opening flight of Event 1 was Stephen Smith (Juno Beach, FL), a WSOP Circuit ring winner who also has an Isle Poker trophy to his name. The trophy win came earlier this year, during the Isle Poker Classic, as Smith headed a six-way chop that ended the event. The first place finish was worth $28,462, and still stands as Stephen's largest cash of his career (with his WSOP Circuit win a distant second).
Smith is currently joined in the field by the "breakfast club," a revolving group of players that consistently play in the afternoon events on the "recurring schedule" (players like Joseph Mancuso, Thomas Gari, Peter Odiot). Also in the field is Paulius Bikus (Ft. Lauderdale, FL), a tournament regular who is coming off a cash in last night's $130 No Limit Hold'em ($20,000 GTD).
