Event 12: New Face in the Crowd

 $170 + $30 Deep Stack Double Play NLH (2 Re-entry)

Tony Lam (Atlantic City, NJ) is here today playing his first-ever tournament.  At the age of 32, he's never played one before and decided to give it a shot.  He usually only plays cash games.  The funny thing is that he makes his living as a poker dealer at Caesar's!

Tony decided it was time to get some tournament experience and the low price-tag on this event makes it a good choice for a start.  There's also the possibility of a nice payday if he goes deep, plus the chance to try again if he makes a mistake early.  With his cash game and dealing experience, it will be interesting to see if Tony compete with the more experienced tournament players.

37 tables are currently in action with more standing by for late entries and re-entries.
