Current National Champion David Kalet is in Las Vegas and taking today off after making it through day 1 and 2 in the World Series of Poker Main Event.  He has played 12 hours each day grinding his way through the field.  His first table had former WSOP Main Event winner Jerry Yang on it.  Day one didn't start off too well as David was down to 10-12k from his starting stack of 50k.  Things weren't going well and he was card dead.  After he got down he was playing pretty tight and fought his way back to 25k.

David picked up A-Q and raised a bigger stack who had been re-raising the whole table all the time re-raised David.  Thought he was trying to push him around again David moved all in.  The bully actually had a hand of pocket kings.  Luckily for David he caught an ace on the flop.  As David said to us, "He made a bad move at the right time".  After he doubled up he was at around the original starting stack to end day one.

As day two started once again things were slow and he grinded his way to 70k picking up hands here and there.  Then a little bit before dinner break David's table was busted and he moved into the TV room.  With his new table he started catching hands picking up good starting hands and hitting trips with small pocket pairs.  At the end of day 2 FPN's National Champion sits at 232,700.  David said he appreciates all the support and he is having a blast.  Keep it up!!!

Champion David Kalet hits the $$$CASH$$$

National Champion David Kalet has made it through World Series of Poker Main Event day 3 and is now in the cash.  The least amount David can win is $15,000, but hopefully he can get some double ups and keep going for more!  David had kind of a rough day 3 when he got tangled up with a couple big stacks.  The first hand he had A-K of clubs when the flop came with two clubs, but couldn't catch the third one.  The other one was he had his Aces cracked against the big stack when the flop came Q high.  The big stack kept betting into him as David was trapping him, but unfortunately the river came a 6 to give the big stack two pair and crack his aces.  They played an extra hour last night until the bubble burst and in that hour David was stingy and just absorbing the blinds folding good starting hands like K-J and A-Q until it finally broke. He is sitting with 64k and will be starting day four with a 1k ante and blinds at 3k-6k.  Wishing him some quick double ups!
