The unofficial award for longest distanced traveled to the Seminole Hard Rock in Hollywood, FL goes to Sarah Berry (London, England) who’s vacationing from across the pond.

“A lot of my family lives here,” says Berry with an average stack, “and when I saw the schedule, I said, ‘oh (man), I gotta play.'”

Berry is sporting an unusual piece of jewelry that’s part ring, part bracelet. “I’m calling him Barrington,” a name she makes up on the spot for the gold skeleton that’s on her wrist.

“He’s just my friend.”

Berry is one of the 263 Flight D entries, setting the total Event 1 entries at 1,099. That means players are more than half way to the $1 Million Guaranteed prize pool with Saturday’s full day of poker left for the opening event.
