Annette Obrestad in Eariler WSOP Competiton

With hundreds of hopeful amateurs taking their seats today in the Rio's Brasilia Room, many of them playing in their first WSOP tournament, the sight of a recognizable professional can be a thrilling experience... as long as their not at your table. For a few unfortunate souls at table # 40 in the Silver section, today's $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em event has become an all-star game, with no less than three accomplished pros beginning the day together.

Annette Obrestad, Faraz Jaka, and Paul "X-22" Magriel are all seated near one another, leading to lively discussion about how the Series is progressing for each. With six-figure scores and final table appearances between them, the amateurs at this table must avoid becoming starstruck, or they will soon be short-stacked.
