Raphael Reis

Players continue to register and line up for their seats. The previous big flight was 509 entries last night but they’ve blown the doors off that number so far this afternoon with an hour left to run it up.

Raphael Reis is giving Event 1 another shot and he knows a little something about getting through these big fields. The opening event of the 2017 Seminole Hard Rock Lucky Hearts Poker Open drew the biggest starting field in Florida poker history with those 5,018 entries putting more than $1.5 million up for grabs in a $360 buy-in tournament.

After everything was all settled, Reis was the one posing for the winner’s photo after a nine-way deal locked his title along with $155,000.
