Level 2
: 150/300, 0 ante
Defending WSOP Main Event champion Scott Blumstein has entered the fray on Day 1a and, despite not being involved in any of the action yet, has already made an impact on his table. All smiles, very chatty and interacting with the other players at the table, the atmosphere is very relaxed.
The table also features three-time WSOP bracelet winner Brian Yoon, Jean Montury and Lacey Jones.
Yoon just raised to 800 first to act and was called by Joseph Ingalls in the big blind. After a 
flop both players checked. Ingalls checked the 
turn, Yoon bet 1,000 and folded to Ingall's check-raise of 4,500.
