FSPC Main Event (Flight 1C): Lots Of Late Arrivals After First Break

2017 Florida State Poker Championships
Event 20 - $1,500 No Limit Hold'em ($500,000 GTD)
Level 4 (Blinds 150/300/50)
Total Flight 1C Entries: 151


Shawn Nguyen (Sunrise, FL)

Players are coming back from their first break of the day, with the field growing as each minute passes.  There has been a steady flow of late entries into Flight 1C, with the trend of "new faces" continuing across the floor.  Shawn Nguyen's (Sunrise, FL) time playing poker is usually spent at Palm Beach Kennel Club (playing cash), but a tournament such as this is not one he's going to miss.  Nguyen became a "local legend" by final tabling last year's WPT Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open $3,500 Championship Event, finishing in fourth place for $323,500.  That stands as Shawn's largest results by far, but he did just add a title to his resume, winning a $1,100 PLO 8B (Event #74) tournament during the DeepStacks Extravaganza at the Venetian ($61,082).

Also included in the list of late arrivals:

Alexandre Fradin

Josh Hillock
Jeffrey Silverstein
Nigel Murray
Matthew Zarcadoolas
Richard Kirsch
David Diaz
Andrew Touchette
Mohammad "Sheddy" Siddiqui
