Good Start for Yildiz
Level 1
: 50/100, 0 ante
Sevket Yildiz is an animated character, clearly enjoying his World Poker Tour Main Event so far. Just a month ago, he made the final table in another big tournament here in North Cyprus (6th for $24,100), and he's trying to best that performance here this week.
Yildiz is already up to 65,000 after winning a big all in in one of the first hands of the day. His flush draw with 
was up against a lower flush draw with 
, and Yildiz was responsible for the first elimination of the day.
Yildiz played yesterday as well, and ran his stack up to 80,000 at one point, but didn't make it through the day. Will he be able to hold on to his chips today? We sure hope so, as someone as vivid as Yildiz is a great player to have in the tournament room.
