We found another talented set of players sitting together. This time we have Chris Limo, Wally Maddah, and Edgardo Rosario occupying three seats in a row at Table 77 to create a tough path for the rest fo the players there.

Limo is coming off a 15th place finish in the WPT Poker Showdown Championship in April and said he’d like to improve his finish this time around.

He’s off to a good start. Limo limp-shoved for 15,200 from the button after Rosario raised in the big blind.

“Double me up, I want to gamble,” Limo said.

Limo: Kh5h
Rosario: AcKc

“Give me two fives!” Limo pleaded with the dealer.

The Ks6c5d flop was a good start and his two pair kings and fives held after the 3c turn and 7s river.

“These guys are in trouble,” Limo laughed.

Chris Limo – 30,900
Edgardo Rosario – 23,500
