Brasilia Room: Red Section Review

It's 4th July and as such some players have come dressed a little bit more glittery as usual, but nobody has come dressed with as much aplomb as Kenni Nguyen, only this is his usual attire and has nothing to do with the festivities of the 4th July! Nguyen has had 5 World Series of Poker (WSOP) cashes this year, including a runner-up spot for $347,036 in Event #19: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em where he lost in heads-up battle against Cliff Goldkind. Nguyen is dressed as a court jester over at Table 91.

Just sat two seats to the left of Nguyen is Jonathan Little. The multiple World Poker Tour (WPT) champion has close to $5 million in live tournament earnings, but has gotten off to a poor start and sits behind a stack of 1,500 chips.

Once again the females are well presented in the field. 2-days ago, Katherine Dozier, was securing her best ever WSOP cash when she finished in twenty-seventh place in Event #54: $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em and she is back hoping to do much of the same at Table Seventy-Three. Finally, we have one half of French poker's celebrity couple Claire Renault. Renault - who is the beau of WSOP bracelet winner Fabrice Soulier - is seated at Table Seventy-Five and has 7 WSOP cashes to her name.
