Event 1 (Day 1A): Charles In Charge

Level 4 (Blinds 100/200)
Total Day 1A Entries: 142

Charles Welch (Baltimore, MD)

The last time Charles Welch (Baltimore, MD) was pictured on the Live! Updates Page, it was for chopping the $3,500 Live! Poker Classic Main Event.  Charles would take home $37,990 as part of the deal, which to this date is his largest recorded tournament cash.

What many people may not have known is the fact that Welch won a satellite to get into the event, eventually parlaying that into a five-digit score.  Charles has had three cashes since that event, including a 39th place finish in Event 9 of the 2014 WSOP ($1,000 No Limit Hold'em).  Welch is currently seated at Table 30 and has just over the starting stack in front of him.
