Some Standouts
The starting field here at Hollywood Poker Open Tunica Regional Main Event includes some recognizable players.
Of course, 2003 Main Event champion Chris Moneymaker is the biggest headliner. Moneymaker has taken up a post as an ambassador for the tour, but a few other standouts have also taken seats. Kyle Cartwright has put together a decorated career grinding the WSOPC, with five rings to his name. Speaking of the Circuit, Johnny Landreth is seated at a nearby table. He snagged his first ring by taking down the WSOPC Tunica Main Event last month after a marathon heads-up match. Finally, Barry Schultz has been a force in the preliminary events here, climbing atop the leaderboard with 49 points at the stop.
We'll keep an eye on all of these runners as the tournament progresses.
