$200 NLH $100,000 GTD (Flight 1E): Kalgstein Returns From Vegas A Richer Man

$200 No Limit Hold'em
$100,000 Guaranteed
Level 7 (Blinds 250/500/75)
Total Flight 1E Entries: 146

Rick Kalgstein (Sunrise, FL) had a little change of scenery the past two weeks, but is now back at his "home" casino, and looking to add a highlighting run to his resume.

Each day of this tournament, we've featured players that had returned from Las Vegas, all of which experienced some nice results while there.  Rick Kalgstein (Sunrise, FL), who entered Flight 1E during Level 5, can add his name to that list.  Kalgstein took advantage of the quality events outside of the WSOP (and the Rio), taking home first and second in dailies at Planet Hollywood.  Kalgstein's live earnings are now just shy of $30,000, with a potential deep run in this event sure to help him eclipse that number.  

Before we shift our focus to the action at the tables, we will take one last look at the list of notables in the field, which has grown very long:

Andre Rakusa

Steve Valera

Ginold Cham

Francois Gagne

Georges Boyadjian

Barton Taylor

William Underdown

Nigel Murray

Adam Koppel

Julio Fernandez
