Level 1: Barry Greenstein Hits The RailNov 12, '10 Blinds: 50-100 Players Remaining: 315 (Approximate) Eliminations: Barry Greenstein Big Hands:
We didn’t catch the action of the hand that crippled him, but we did see Team PokerStars Pro Barry Greenstein all in for his last 175 with 7 The board ran out A Scott Clements Gets Straightened Out By Eric Froehlich On a board reading 8 Clements checked and Froehlich relunctantly checked behind. Clements showed pocket tens for the overpair, but Froehlich revealed 9 George Lind Gets Paid Off On a board reading 9 Lind showed pocket queens and they were more than good enough to take the pot and shoot his stack to 40,500. Left In The Deck: Not So Random Table Draw If you wander over to the near side of the room, you’ll see some pretty stacked tables. One includes Scott Clements, Mandy Baker, Brent Roberts and Eric Froehlich. All three players just so happened to register together. It’s not just the good players that are the problem, it’s also the lack of satellite winners. Some of the players have been pretty vocal about the draws, but the tournament staff has explained that while an initial number of tables were random, any added tables are not. Simply put, more players showed up today than they originally anticipated. Tough luck for the players who bought in late, but a good problem to have for PokerStars and the NAPT.

John Phan won a $1,000 limit hold’em event, and he was joined at the final table by Card Player father and son duo of Barry Shulman, who cashed in fifth place, and Jeff Shulman, who cashed in third place. Card Player Player of the Year contender Thomas Marchese also cashed in fifth place in a $1,000 no-limit hold’em with rebuys event to take home 120 POY points and close the gap between him and current leader, Dwyte Pilgrim. The battle for the POY lead is now just separated by just 210 points. Scott Clements capped off an exciting preliminary week at Bellagio when he won a $1,000 no-limit hold’em with rebuys event, topping a final table that also included Van Altsyne, Jon Turner, and Gavin Smith. The largest preliminary event of the week was a $5,000 no-limit hold’em event that attracted 90 players and created a $436,500 prize pool. November Niner Joseph Cheong won the tournament, taking home $142,635 in prize money. He topped Brock Parker in heads-up play, and a final table that included Vivek Rajkumar.
