With an entire generation of seniors still growing accustomed to "the Twitter," Bruce Hensel's supporters back home have successfully harnessed the power of social media to give their man a little love.
After receiving a creative request from Hensel's son via tweet, we used our vast reportorial skills to hunt him down among the endless maze of seniors still competing in this championship event.
Hensel currently sits on a stack of just over 16,000 chips, which puts him above the average as the field returns from the latest 20-minute break.

Robert Cheung is no stranger to the WSOP stage, as the long time tournament circuit grinder scored a bracelet win in 2007, taking down a $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em event.
After his most recent major cash, at the 2013 WSOP Circuit Harrah's New Orleans Main Event, Cheung has rode the wave of momentum to build a healthy stack late in Day 1 of this Seniors Championship.
With over 42,000 as play enters the 9th level, Cheung has amassed one of the largest stacks in the room, and for a player of his caliber, this ammunition will make him a threat to the unfortunate amateurs at his table.

The last four tables in the Pavilion room are about to be moved which means the entire tournament will be housed in Brasilia for the duration of the night.
Nível: 9
Blinds: 300/600
Ante: 75
The players are headed out on a 20-minute break. The hallways should be a little less congested as only a little over 1,000 players remain of the original 4,400. See you back here in a few.
We were unable to catch the bust out hand but we did witness Allyn Jaffrey Shulman leaving the tournament area. There will be no repeat for her this year and she joins her husband, Barry, who hit the rail early in the day.

If you see Marcel Sabag right now, you'd never know how close he came to busting out of this tournament. The distinguished-looking gentleman has a massive pile of chips in front of him and he's had an even bigger smile on his face for the past few hours.
But a little after 10 a.m. this morning, Sabag was on the ropes. In the third hand of the tournament, his flush lost to Tom Thomas's full house. After the hand, Sabag was down to 200 in chips. But his stack never got any lower than that, and since then, though, he's gone on quite the run. In one all-in confrontation, he held 
against 
and flopped two jacks. Thanks to a combination of skillful play and timely luck, Sabag now sits with 27,000 in front of him, and he shows no sign of slowing down any time soon.
