Kenneth Cleeton Sitting With New Bracelet Winners, and Rising Stars
Kenneth Cleeton, who won his Main Event seat as part of a Daniel Negreanu contest, is sitting at a "more fun table" than his Day 1 table.
It might be more fun, but this table is filled with talent. Harrison Gimbel is in the nine seat. He recently completed the "Triple Crown" when he won his first WSOP gold bracelet in the $3,000 No-Limit Hold'em earlier this week.
Andreas Klatt is in the one seat. Klatt came second in the Monte Carlo Main Event and won a side event at the same tournament festival. He has made the majority of his $785,021 in career tournament earnings in the span of three days.
Artur Rudziankov is in the two seat. He just won his first WSOP gold bracelet and just under $400,000 in Event #58: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em. He has just over $900,000 in career earnings and is ninth on the Czech Republic's all-time money list.
Rolad Israelashvili is a stape in the WSOP with over $2-million in WSOP earnings on 116 cashes between the WSOP circuit, WSOP proper, and the WSOP Europe. He has five WSOP circuit rings, but has yet to win a WSOP gold bracelet.
Cleeton has no recorded cashes and this is the first time he is playing the WSOP Main Event.
