CPPT Main Event
Level 3 (75/150)Total Entrants: 138
Fred Paradis (Jewett City, CT) |
While all of these players have hugely successful tournament careers with Cohen having close to $200,000 in live earnings and Dobrilovic having just over $1,200,000 in earnings as well as both having outright tournament wins at Borgata Poker Opens and WSOP Circuits, Paradis is the only player to have a Foxwoods championship under his belt, as he has won Foxwoods Poker Classic titles in 2010 and 2014.
On top of those two titles, Paradise also has close to a dozen Final Table appearances, with the majority of his 45 live rated career cashes coming at Foxwoods during their major tournament series, totaling close to $250,000 in earnings.
Paradis almost made another Foxwoods Final Table in the last championship event held here, as he finished 13th in the Mega Stack Challenge Main Event, earning just over $5,300 for his deep run.
He'll look to replicate and perhaps even best that finish here in the CPPT Main Event and looks like he's off to a fast start, as he's already increased his stack up and over the 50,000 chip mark.
Players are mid-way through Level 3, meaning they are just under 20 minutes until their first break of the day.
