Levy, Paterson cash at WSOP; Seniors event (updated)

Marc Levy of Boynton Beach, who went deep in the $3,000 charity tournament at the Hard Rock earlier this month, cashed in event 41 at the World Series of Poker, a $1,500 Limit/No-Limit Hold 'em tournament. He took $3,691 for 40th place.

Meanwhile, Stuart Paterson of Boca Raton cashes yet again, with $3,093 for finishing 62nd.

In the $1,000 Seniors No-Limit Hold 'em event, Lawrence Bass of Tamarac finished 32nd ($7669) and Dana Parham of Pembroke Pines 88th ($3,229).

I started to make a joke wondering if they use larger cards for the seniors events, then I realized every one of them can kick my butt at the table, so I won't.

UPDATE: Now I realize that next year I'M ELIGIBLE for this event, and was within 39 days of playing in this year's. Cutoff is 50 years old, as of start date. In this case, June 23. I turn 50 July 31.
