Interesting Line-Ups
Like the Usual Suspects, there are several interesting line-ups here, with the random draw throwing together friends and old opponents. One trio sat in a row is comprised of Jake Cody, Michel Abecassis and Ruben Visser, which almost guarantees early action in that corner of the room.
Meanwhile friendly but highly competitive Frenchmen Nicolas Levi and Team Pro Arnaud Mattern have drawn the same table. Recently both went deep at the WSOPE with Levi making the final table of the Main Event, a feat which I seem to recall was made all the sweeter by, "doing better than Arnaud." He of course has had great success on the EPT, with a string of cashes bracketing his 2007 win at EPT Prague for over €700,000.
