The Classic Ace Bluff?
When it comes to WSOP bracelet hunts Nicolas Fierro had a few close calls this Summer. The man from Chile finished 3rd in the $5,000 Shootout for $198,096 and then finished a very respectable 34th place in the Main Event itself for $242,636. He has just been moved to the left of former chip leader Roberto Romanello. Notice the use of the word former! It appears Fierro has settled in quite nicely and has taken some chips from the Welshman and has now become our new chip leader. Here he is in action against Victor Ramdin.

and there were a few smirks around the table
