Niveau 5 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante

If one would expect Daniel Negreanu and Jason Mercier in the field, it might be a legitimate guess. Negreanu and Mercier would probably be battling in the Lowball, but they're sitting just a few yards away on the stage. They're busy playing on the $10,000 H.O.R.S.E. Championship final table.

Anthony Zinno was there too, but his run ended in ninth place, good for $28,808. Zinno didn't take a long rest before entering the Lowball, trying to make another final table.
