Hidden in Plain Sight

Mr. Billirakis
Mr. Billirakis
When we were looking over the end of Day 1 chip counts last night, there was one name that caught our eye -- Steve Billirakis.

Really? Steve Billirakis? Did he play? We certainly didn't see him. It was a footnote that was filed away and soon forgotten in all the hubbub of the start of Day 2.

During the course of the day, a player on one of the outer tables started building a stack. He took his 40,000 starting count and increased it to more than 400,000. And who was that strange player with the massive stack?

None other than Steve Billirakis.

So, Steve, we apologize for not spotting you yesterday. It looks like you're the recipient of this year's "Hey look! It's Marco Traniello!" award, first christened at 2009 EPT San Remo.
