"January $100,000 II" (Flight 1A): Another Player Who Experienced Playing Under The "Bright Lights"

"January $100,000 II"
$250 No Limit Hold'em | $100,000 GTD
Level 8 (Blinds 300/600/75)
Total Flight 1A Entries: 80


Justin Harvell (Nashville, TN) is just a few weeks removed from the experience of a lifetime, reaching the live-streamed final table of the WPT DeepStacks $1,000 No Limit Hold'em ($1,000,000 GTD) event.

The first player that we featured this afternoon was Stephen Smith (Juno Beach, FL), as we referenced his recent score during the WPT DeepStacks opening event of the Lucky Hearts Poker Open.  Smith wasn't the only player that frequents the Isle Poker action to reach that final table, as our most recent entry also shared the felt with Smith that day.  

Justin Harvell (Nashville, TN) came into the final table as one of the top stacks, and assumed the chip lead during certain points of the day.  It just seemed to be Scott Baumstein's day though (who eventually won the event), as Justin bowed out in sixth place, earning a total of $45,398.  It was Justin's second largest tournament cash, and helped him eclipse the $200,000 lifetime earnings mark.  

Harvell joins a group of late entering players, including Jose Parra, Sebastian Kos, and Abbey Daniels.  Players will be taking their second break of the day at the end of this level, returning to Level 9, and new blinds of 400/800/100.
