Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

The champions from last years Event #61: $1,000 Tag Team No-Limit Hold'em tournament have arrived on the scene here in the Amazon Ballroom. Doug Polk headlines the team with his returning partner Ryan Fee. Last year they scooped up $76,679 for their victory in the tag team event and they look to make some noise in this years inaugural $10,000 team event.

They have two additions to their team from last year in the form of Jason Mo, who has over a million dollars in WSOP event cashes. Mo is in search of his first bracelet and has picked a good team to try and get it with. The fourth player rounding out the group is Michael Finstein. Finstein has over a quarter million in various WSOP event cashes and is also in search of his first bracelet.

Doug Polk has two bracelets, eleven cashes and over $850,000 in WSOP earnings. He is most well known for all of his work with his coaching site, Upswing Poker and has over $5,000,000 in total live recorded tournament earnings. His biggest live cash was for $1,648,350 when he took down the $100,000 No Limit Hold'em Super High Roller ii at the Bellagio in Las Vegas.

Keep an eye out for this team throughout the remainder of the night.
