Big Stax 300 (Day 1C): Down Under...The Hood

Level 2 (Blinds 75/150)
Total Day 1C Entries: 98

Antonio Payne (Hazlet, NJ)

A lot of poker players have their pulse on the community, and know what series are going on all over the world.  The WSOPAPAC started a few days ago, with some of the biggest names in the poker world traveling to Australia to try and grab a bracelet "down under."  Antonio Payne (Hazlet, NJ) was supposed to be one of those players making the 24-hour trip to Australia, but scheduling conflicts kept him from doing so.

The truth is that the Big Stax 300 was the WSOP Circuit ring winner's first choice anyway, and he's in action for the first time this series.  He is technically "down under" his hood, we promise you that's Payne mid-hand, before scooping up a nice pot and chipping up above the starting stack.

Payne's joined at Table 56 by a few notables that were mentioned already, but others that were spotted included Nancy Martin, Nunzio Russo, Lou Santoro, Joseph Spillane, Pierre Diessler, and Tim Little.
