Jordan Batt. I am in a yellow hoodie and gray WSOP t-shirt (I had to buy the t-shirt when I was there because I ran out of clothes!). The best cards I got all tourney came at my time at the featured table, so hopefully I will get some nice air time. I cracked a couple jokes about Norman Chad too, so hopefully he takes it easy on me :scared

What's the furthest you have gone in the main event?

Arrow, this was my first year in the WSOP. Depending on my family's health (wife has MS and son has Type 1 Diabetes), I will try and be back next year. Would love to meet up. NOT on the golf course though. You must get to Vegas much more than me... when I am in Vegas, i cannot get up from the card tables except for drinks and dinner.

I'm playing at the WSOP circuit event in Hammond next month.

In what appeared to be his first ever sojourn to the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas, Jordan Batt definitely made a statement that he can play the game and ? if he ever steps away from his business obligations ? he may have a career in the works.

A businessman from Northbrook, Illinois, Batt had no record of ever cashing in a live poker tournament prior to the 2012 WSOP Main Event. By the time Day 6 of the tournament came around, Batt was in the middle of the pack with 1.3 million in chips. Some might have thought that he was just hanging around to get the best finish possible, but Batt had other intentions.

The Illinois poker community member increased his stack from the start of play, getting Roman Valerstein to release his hand for a 400,000-chip pot. He then knocked out Ben Greenberg to shoot his chip stack up to 2.75 million and further lit the fireworks with the elimination of Max Ovseyevitz to move over the three million chip mark.

That was where the Cinderella dream of the businessman came crashing down. Although he fought valiantly into the early morning hours, he couldn?t find his way to the final three tables for Day 7. After seeing Canadian Marc Ladouceur raise and American Scott Abrams 3bet in front of him, Batt made his stand from the big blind.

Ladouceur folded, but Abrams made the call with A-K for a coin flip against Batt?s pocket jacks. Alas, the drama ended quickly with a king on the flop and, once he missed his two-outer twice, Jordan Batt was busto in 29th place.

Not a bad way to make your first tournament score, however. For coming up just short of Day 7, Batt made his first ever tournament cash, a six-figure score of $236,921.

When you go to hammond, look for a bald dealer names ERIC ROBERTS for me. He dealt the big game in my poker room in Wisconsin for 5 years. Great guy and please look him up for me. He knows me pretty well/

Thanks guys!

It was pretty hilarious watching myself on there. I agree that the whole Navarro's Tells bit is a joke. It's not even close to the truth nor does it mean anything.

The Hammond event is Oct 11-22th. I think the "main event" starts on the 18th, but I'm not positive.

Agreed on Madjackers... I still want to know who posted the sign there!?!?
