When the banner commemorating Ryan Riess’ Main Event win last year was unveiled earlier this week, a slight oversight led to his name being misspelled as "Reiss". He saw the humorous side and it was soon corrected, playing in the very room where it hangs today.
It seems that he may be getting used to this kind of mix up, the same misspelling on his All-American Dave's lunch bag. Somebody on the wind-up, perhaps?
It that wasn't bad enough we just saw Riess get it all in preflop with against his opponent's .
The flop fell and his opponent cried, "Yes, let me get lucky!" He remained lucky as the turn and river saw Riess in trouble three levels into the tournament.
Tony Dunst is no longer competing for this tournament's bracelet after crashing out a short while ago. He'll be back bracelet hunting on Friday, so keep an eye out for him in Event #29.
Mark Dube is running hotter than the sun here and shows no signs of slowing down. Dube now has 141,000 chips and looks to be our chip leader with 45 minutes until the day ends.
