Event 7: Ladies Night

$150 No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)
Level 5: Blinds 150/300/25 ante

Alvin Wilson can’t get away from the ladies but this time in a great way.

After Wilson was ready to swear off playing queens as was mentioned earlier, he was ironically seated at a new table with one woman on his right and three on his left (Candice Riley, Naomi Ray and Ginny Smythe).  If that’s not good karma, what is?

And by the way, Wilson did play a hand with queens at this table – and won.

Another former SHR champion has gotten into Flight 1F.  This fall’s Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open Charity Series of Poker winner Nick Yunis has dropped in.  Nick is rated on the Global Poker Index as Chile’s #1 ranked player and hoping to add to his half-million in career live winnings starting tonight with Event 7.

Event 7: Never Fear, Sports Fans!

$150 No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)
Level 3:  Blinds 75/150

It’s been a terrific sports weekend and fortunately if you come to Seminole Hard Rock-Hollywood, FL to play you won’t have to miss a thing.  Players in the room have seen every minute of action for the Dolphins, Heat, NFL, Monday Night Football and college hoops Tip-Off Marathon thanks to the two giant projection screens in the ballroom venue.

And just in case you bust out, there are plenty of places to enjoy your favorite games on site like Hooters, Center Bar, the legendary Hard Rock Cafe and many more.  Aside from the poker, no one will ever be lacking for sports entertainment and excitement here during the 2014 Seminole Hard Rock Rock N’ Roll Poker Open!

Event 7: Alvin Wilson – Ladies Man

$150 No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)
Level 2:  Blinds 50/100

Alvin Wilson may not want to see queens again for a while.

After a pair of queens caused his demise on the final table of Event 1, they are causing him even more trouble tonight. Bullet #1 on this flight saw his queens cracked by a gutshot straight draw. Bullet #2 saw him hit a pair of queens with his Qd9h but ran into aces and he was sent back to his pizza and beer. Wilson appears to be ready for one more crack it tonight but queens may hit the muck no matter what this time around.

There’s a new panda in town!

We all remember “The Panda” Jay Farber as the 2013 World Series of Poker Main Event runner-up. Well, Amanda Huber has apparently taken a cue from the Las Vegas club host and is trying the channel everyone’s favorite bear for luck and inspiration here in Event 1. No word if she knows Kung Fu.
