$360 No Limit Hold'em | $200,000 GTD
Level 3 (Blinds 75/150/25)
Total Flight 1A Entries: 73

| Joshua Hillock's (Orlando, FL) primary focus is on cash games, but when there are "major" events in the South Florida area, he's most likely going to be in attendance. |
This opening flight of Event #7 is on pace to eclipse the century mark, and is off to a very strong start. The field is full of notables players to the Isle Poker Room, including everyone's "favorite runner-up," Joshua Hillock (Orlando, FL). The runner-up reference is in regards to his last Isle Poker tournament score, in which he fell in heads-up play to Ian O'Hara, during the first installment of the $2,500 Single-Day Series. The event attracted a total of (75) entries, and had a prize pool over $170,000...meaning Josh's second place finish was worth $31,050.
The result helped Hillock eclipse the $800,000 mark in lifetime earnings, which he continued to add to last week, finishing in 26th place during the $1,675 WSOP Circuit Main Event at Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood ($8,041). Hillock's lone tournament win came here at the Isle Poker Room in 2011, when we won the $2,200 NLH Six-Max event during the Florida State Poker Championships ($31,323). He joins a group in this opening flight, all looking to add a "major" trophy win to their resume:
Tom Gity
Chien Chiu
Jennifer Parker
Eric Piderit
Alberto Niebla
Luis Santoni
John Magnetta
