A $1,000,000 guarantee is going to encourage all levels of player to hit the felts, and so far in the WPT500 we’ve noticed quite a few players in the field that have major championships under their belts and may generally play in much larger buy-in tournaments. At the top of the list is Brian Altman, who has over $2.5M in lifetime earnings and particularly fond memories of the Montreal area due to his WSOP-C Ring victory here a few years back.
Some of the other big-time players we’ve noticed so far on Day 1A: Timothy Ulmer, David Ormsby, Jonathan Bussières, Louis Boutin, Tam Ho, and Ruben Perceval – among others!
