Congratulations to Loni Harwood, Winner of Event #60 $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em ($609,017)!
 

Just last week, Dana Castaneda became the first woman not named Vanessa Selbst to win an open event at the WSOP since 2007. Well it appears that Castaneda started a trend, as WSOP Circuit Grinder Loni Harwood has just won another bracelet for the ladies, taking down Event #60 $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em. Along with adding her first bracelet to the two Circuit rings she already owns, Harwood will take home $609,017.

Tripodi Leads Day 1b w/ "Jungleman" Close Behind; Three Former Main Event Winners Advance
 

The 2013 World Series of Poker continued Sunday by crowning two more bracelet winners—Brian Yoon in Event #58: $1,111 Little One for One Drop and Loni Harwood in Event #60: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em—and kicking off Day 1b of the $10,000 Main Event. All three tournament rooms were filled to the brim as 1,942 players took their shot in the second of three starting flights. Even though that was down a bit from last year's 2,114 players, it was more than twice as many as Day 1a's 943. That said, Monday's Day 1c is expected to draw more than the first two flights combined to put the 2013 WSOP Main Event over 6,000 runners.

After five two-hour levels of play, Clement Tripodi finished as the Day 1b chip leader of the advancing 1,300 with 207,500, which is a bit more than Evan Panesis, who bagged up 190,975 to lead the advancing 584 players from Day 1a. Other Day 1b big stacks include Daniel "Jungleman" Cates (198,425), Robert Russ (176,650), Rullo Gianluca (167,800), Robert Neyhorayan (146,100), Sorel Mizzi (134,100), Olivier Elissandre (128,975), John Ott (126,375), Tyler Denson (125,000), Richard Hu (118,450) and Adrien Allain (118,125).


Hopefully Mere can put up a list of Brits later

I think this Tripodi geezer should henceforth be referred to as Jake the fake.

Although we might like to claim Leo Margets, it seems a little ambitious.
Also, Onepropet   Rovse might not be in Britain, unless it's in the North East somewhere.
