Tough Tables
Walking through the crowd presents a fairly homogenous mixture of pros and unknowns. Still, a few tables stick out as being particularly tough, and we have two separate murderers' rows.
Table 124 has Will Failla, Marco Traniello, and Daniel Negreanu right in a row in the six, seven, and eight seats, and Table 122 has Chino Rheem, Chris Bjorin, and Allen Kessler right in order as well. Table 137 looks pretty tough, too, with Shannon Shorr, Greg Raymer, and Bill Chen all in attendance there. Table 132 is where the defending champ, Chris Bell begins his day, sharing a table with Miami John Cernuto, Lee Watkinson, and Alex Kravchenko.
Table 125 might be the toughest, though. We spot James "Flushy" Dempsey, Alex Gomes, Mike Sexton, Claudio Rinaldi, and Roberto Romanello sitting together there.
