Riess Returns
Level 1
: 25/50, 0 ante
Seats are filling here as we move past the halfway mark of Level 1, with the big board showing nearly 350 players having sat down behind starting stacks of 20,000 thus far.
Among those taking hands is Ryan Riess of East Lansing, Michigan. Riess made his splash onto the poker scene with a big score at the 2012-13 WSOP Circuit Main Event at Horseshoe Hammond back in October 2012. There Riess finished runner-up to Josh Williams, earning a cool $239,063 for his finish.
After that initial cash, Riess has added about a dozen more smaller ones at other WSOP Circuit events and the L.A. Poker Classic over the last few months, and is looking to add another here today.
