CPPT Event #1 (Flight 1D): Brenda Nelson Likes The Multi-Flight Events, Searching For First Tournament Title

2018 Card Player Poker Tour (Isle Casino Pompano Park)
Event #1 | $360 No Limit Hold'em ($200,000 GTD)
Level 5 (Blinds 200/400/400)
Total Flight 1D Entries: 106


Brenda Nelson (Delray Beach, FL) had frequented many of the multi-flight tournament here at the Isle over the last few months, and is looking for her "breakout" score.

Not all of the notables in the field are household names, but that doesn't mean they lack any experience in tournaments.  Brenda Nelson (Delray Beach, FL) has been someone we've seen in events as of late, most recently cashing in the $175 No Limit Hold'em ($100,000 GTD) that was run here in June.  Brenda finished in 38th place, which earned her $500, and helped bring her career earnings north of $30,000.  Nelson has recorded (24) results since November of 1997, but is still looking for her first tournament win.  That initial result from 1997, a $100 No Limit Hold'em tournament in Amsterdam, still stands as her largest cash (2nd place for $4,490).

Brenda headlines our second look at notables in the Flight 1D field, joining the likes of:
