Big Stax 300 (Day 1C): #Norm'sBack

Level 2 (Blinds 75/150)
Total Day 1C Entries: 119

Norman Michalek (Westfield, NJ)

There was something missing from the past two Big Stax series, and many players just couldn't put there finger on what it was.  Then it just occurred to us...Norman wasn't around.  Norman Michalek (Westfield, NJ) was a staple at every series run here at Parx beforehand, but took a three month trip to Poland to visit family and play some online poker.

Michalek returned from his trip a few weeks ago, and jumped into a few events during the Borgata Poker Open, but wasn't able to gain any traction.  He may of been rusty after the longest stint spent away from live poker in his career, but Norman's online chops were still there.

Just last week Michalek final tabled the GSSS Event #19 High ($75,000 Guaranteed) NLH on PartyPokerNJ, finishing in 4th place and earning himself $15,750.  Norman's last memory of the Big Stax is stone bubbling the Big Stax V 500 event, so he's looking to put that behind him with a good Day 1C.
