2007 WSOP Event 2 - Casino Employees No Limit Holdem

  What can be done with $90? This will pay for a weekend night at a Red Roof Inn; can cover two flights of Heroscape game pieces (those of you who consider Gene Roddenberry a minor diety and have been bitterly weeping since the Sci Fi Channel announced the fourth season of Battlestar Galactica would the show's last, know what we are talking about); would finance dinner for two at Ruth's Chris steakhouse; or would buy a gentleman 3 minutes worth of private entertainment at Scores in New York. Of course if you are Frederick Narciso, that is the amount of money that was spent for your first World Series of Poker Championship bracelet. Frederick is yet another twenty-something player that is part of a youth movement that is replenishing the sport. His bracelet winning performance at Event 2 of the WSOP would have made the 24 year old the youngest champion ever if he had accomplished this feet this three years ago. Despite missing out on that record, Eric will probably settle for being the first rap artist to ever be named a World Series of Poker Champion.  Narciso was born and bred in Chicago, Illinois where he developed both a love of poker and a unique approach to hip-hop music. In fact, his MySpace Page talks about how he has developed a style all his own. In rap circles he prefers to go by his nickname "Quietlike".  How his involvement with rap music will go down in an industry where the Stetson hat is considered high fashion is fairly predictable. Considering the fact that nobody outside of the folks who have visited his MySpace page have ever heard his music, and the undeniable skill he showed in winning the Event 2 championship, it is a pretty safe bet that "Quietlike" the rapper will disappear to obscurity, but "Quietlike" the poker player may have a long career ahead of him.PlacePlayerPrize1Frederick Narciso$104,7012Charles Fisher$66,3923Eugene Lang$42,5474Chris Chau$28,0535Kevin Kalthoff$19,6376David Dietrfch$14,9627Meaghan Larivee$11,2218John Konich$8,1829Eric Schutzberg$5,844
