World Series of Poker bracelet winner Michael Moore came to play today as well, and he might be one of the most experienced players in today's field.
Moore won the $5,000 Limit Hold'em event last year for $211,743 after topping a field of 170, almost 30 years after he finished 10th in the WSOP Main Event. That event was ultimately won by Dan Harrington who went on to become one of the most recognizable faces in the game.
Moore's from Agar, South Dakota and without question the most famous person from this little town. Agar has just 66 inhabitants and we're sure everyone out there must be following their local favorite.

Richard Sklar: / — fold
Owais Ahmed: / /
Shane Douglas: / /
Sklar completed, Ahmed and Douglas both called, and Sklar tossed out a bet on fourth street. Both players called. The action checked to Ahmed on fifth street, he bet, and both Douglas and Sklar called.
Ahmed paired his nine on sixth street and led out, Douglas raised, and Sklar folded. Ahmed tanked for a considerable amount of time before calling, and then checked dark going into seventh street. Douglas bet, Ahmed raised, Douglas reraised, and Ahmed tank-called.
Douglas turned over for a full house.
"I can beat that," Ahmed announced, revealing for a superior boat.
The 2011 bracelet winner pulled in the pot, and is now up to 56,000 chips.
