Isle Open Event 1 (Flight 1A): Opening Flight Crosses The Century Mark

2017 Isle Open | Event #1
$175 No Limit Hold'em | $100,000 GTD
Level 6 (Blinds 200/400/50)
Total Flight 1A Entries: 102


Carlos Loving (Sarasota, FL) is another player from out of the area, who is sticking around for the
2017 Isle Open.

As Flight 1A reaches the century mark (in terms of entries), we are continuing to see players from out of the area join the action, including Carlos Loving (Sarasota, FL).  Loving is a resident of Florida's West Coast, but makes frequent trips to this area, most recently to Seminole Hard Rock (during the WSOP Circuit).  Carlos has over $557,000 in career tournament earnings, a majority of which has come over the last three years.  His resume started in 2004, but went the next eight years with some gaps in results.  It wasn't until 2014 that Loving's poker career really took off, highlighted by a runner-up finish at the Heartland Poker Tour $1,500 Main Event (Daytona Beach), worth $79,225.  

Loving ended up recording over $224,000 in tournament results during that year, and while those numbers dipped to $43,000 in 2015, he bounced back last year with over $153,000 in total cashes.  Carlos joins a group of later arriving players, with just over an hour remaining in registration for this flight:
