An Mis-Matched Duo

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Bill Gazes & Charles Kassin
Bill Gazes & Charles Kassin

A couple of players in the middle of the room present an unlikely duo, but demonstrate tournament poker as the great equalizer.

Bill Gazes has more than $2.3 million in career tournament earnings, a best live cash of $759,000, and cashes in all variants of the game.

On his left is Charles Kassin, with total live earnings of just over $57,000 and a best live cash of $13,140. He has cashed in three Borgata Open Kick-Offs (2019 BFPO, 2019 BPO, & 2019 Spring Poker Open).

At this point Kassin has more chips, but this is a marathon, not a sprint, and there still a long way to go to reach the coveted plastic bag at the end of Level 15, not to mention the culmination of this event, which will be on Saturday, January 18.
