Clemente Looking For Another Deep Foxwoods Run

CPPT Main Event
Level 3 (75/150)
Total Entrants: 125
Mike Clemente (West Warwick, RI)
We've talked a lot about players who have made not only deep runs in past major Foxwoods tournament series, but also players who have made deep Card Player Poker Tour runs in years past and one player that satisfies both of those criteria is Mike Clemente (West Warwick, RI).

Clemente has numerous Foxwoods results, with close to 20 live rated scores making up just under $50,000 in earnings, but his biggest Foxwoods cash and CPPT score came during last year's series, when he finished 2nd in a $100,000 GTD event making just under $18,000.

Clemente survived a "murderers" row to make that deep run, as Foxwoods regulars Mike Nye, Tarun Gulati and Chris Leong, who all have very successful tournament resumes, were also present at the Final Table.

We've yet to see Clemente during this years CPPT, but after nothing a top 20 finish in the WSOP Circuit Main Event in August where he made another $7,500, he's returned looking for another deep championship run.

Joining Clemente in the field are other players looking to make another deep CPPT run, James Freebody and Sharman Olshan, who have both Final Tabled events during this series.
