RGPS Kansas City Main Event Profile: Ryan Barton
Ryan Barton is from Mt. Pleasant, IA and owns a construction company.
"I'm just a ditch digger," he said.
"Not if you own the company," Craig Welko replied.
"Nah. I still man a shovel. I don't have enough guys," Barton said.
Barton says he rarely plays poker, but really likes (Harrah's Kansas City) and his brother lives in the area.
As part of the RGPS Showbound promotion, players who make the final table of the main event will be entered into a satellite for a chance to play on Poker After Dark. Barton didn't know who he'd like to play against so he asked [Removed:139].
"Who should I play against?"
"You wouldn't be intimidated by anyone," Platt replied. "You know Phil Hellmuth?"
"I know him, I've seen his blowups. I'd like to get him mad," said Barton.
Barton is in a great mood after making what he says the table called 'hero' calls.
