Tony Miles, who finished second to John Cynn in last year's World Series of Poker Main Event, winning $5,000,000 in the process has added another cash to his resume after busting out early on Day 3 of the Big 50.
Miles, who hails from Jacksonville, Florida has only cashed three times in tournaments since his career-defining result last July, but all three of those cashes were in the run-up to this year's WSOP and he's off the mark at this year's festival.
