Nick Goulart's Story
Niveau 8
: 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Nick Goulart has worked up a decent looking stack of around 110,000 thus far and is looking good in his first ever WSOP bracelet event.
Nick, who is mostly used to playing cash games or sit and gos with his military buddies over the years, is looking to get his first WSOP bracelet. Deservedly so after serving in the U.S. Air Force for the last 21 years, mostly out of Travis air base.
Nick credits his spouse, Val with helping improve his poker game, what an ode to her it would be if he could ship the entire event.
There are plenty of stories coming out of this year's Salute to Warriors event, stay tuned for all the up to date stories and hands.

Andion In Massive Pot On The River
Niveau 7
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Alejandro Andion was heads-up against the cutoff on a 
, the pot already at 70,000.
According to another player at the table, who helpfully filled PokerNews in on the action, apparently after a pre-flop limp from early position, Andion's opponent had bet and Andion three-bet the button. After getting called he continued, was called, then continued again on the turn when checked to. The opponent called again.
This time, on the river his opponent lead into him for 31,000 chips only to have Andion move all in for 99,500 total. The opponent had Andion covered by a few thousand, and after thinking for a couple of minutes if not more, the opponent perhaps begrudgingly let his hand go.

Shaun Colquhoun, One Veteran's Story
Niveau 7
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Shaun Colquhoun, who has been covered in this event today after rising to the top of the chip counts early, is here representing Warriors Poker.
Colquhoun, who had a 4th place finish in Event #1 at this years WSOP, is an U.S Army Infantry veteran, who was medically discharged. Serving 6 years from '07-'13, with part in Afghanistan, Colquhoun has lived in Las Vegas for the last 8 years, playing cash games across Vegas casinos for the last 6.
He also is a celebrity host for cash games across the city, working with Phil Ivey, for example.
According to Colquhoun, Warriors Poker is a fantastic organisation that helps fund Veterans with buy-ins, so they can play poker tournaments. Colquhoun has spoken of how calming poker can be, helping those with post-traumatic stress to find focus and community.
A charming guy, Colquhoun is focused on trying to win a bracelet, after just missing out at the start of the WSOP summer, with this event his target.
There will be plenty of other stories from this event over the next two or three days, keep it here with PokerNews, where we'll try to bring you more stories like Shaun's as the event progresses.
