Ring Winners Going for More Gold

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante

Jeffrey Gurfinkel, winner of WSOP-C Atlantic City Event No. 4 ($365 NLHE) has arrived and is playing at one of the most-recently started tables. So, too, is Feming Chan here. Chan just won his first Circuit ring last night in Event No. 7 ($1,125 NLHE).

We also just took a walk over to Christopher Leong's table to see how he's doing so far today. Leong has made a name for himself this week at Caesars Atlantic City, winning two gold rings in Event No. 2, a $365 NLHE Re-Entry, and Event No. 6, a $365 NLHE 6-max. tourney.

Noticing our presence, Leong's opponents wondered aloud who at the table had drawn our attention. Subsequent conversation finally got around to the topic of Leong's recent feats.

"Is it really true he won two rings this week?" one of his opponents asked. "It's okay�� you won't be giving anything away. He's wearing the rings!"

The table exploded in laughter. Leong �� who isn't really wearing the rings �� just smiled in response, continuing to focus on trying to become the first player ever to win three rings at a single WSOP Circuit stop.
