Event 17 (Day 1A): Noticing The Notables

Level 2 (Blinds 75/150)
Total Entries: 47

Denis Gnidash (Fair Lawn, NJ)

While the number of out of state players traveling to play events during this series was a nice surprise, it was known ahead of time that this event was going to attract players from all over.  Denis Gnidash (Fair Lawn, NJ) has cashes across the country, and even one from the EPT in Barcelona.  Prior to heading to Las Vegas for this year's WSOP, he won the $2,200 Borgata Summer Poker Open Main Event for over $150,000.  Denis's last eight cashes have been in events with buy-ins over $1,000, so it was clear that this Main Event was in his sights.  Other late entries to walk into the tournament area over the past (45) minutes include:
