Jeff Sarwer (Event # 22) Seeks His Second Final Table of the Series Here On Day 1

We spotted Jeff Sarwer, former child chess prodigy and final table member at this year's $1,500 PLO tournament, in the field today. After his deep run in that event, Sarwer looked like he was still running good as he dragged another pot his way.

After raising before the flop and attracting two callers, Sarwer continued when the board came {7-Spades}{5-Clubs}{3-Spades}. His bet of 375 was enough to take the pot down and he looks to have a stack of near 5,200 as we near the dinner break.
