Big Stax XVII 500 (Day 1C): A Tale Of Two Joes

Level 12 (Blinds 1,000/2,000/300)
Total Big Stax XVII 500 Entries: 1,118

Total Big Stax XVII 500 D1C Entries: 588

There are few players that are sure to never miss a Big Stax event, and Joe Reddick and Joe Palma are among that select few. The two have consistently made deep runs throughout the history of the Big Stax series and will look to do so once again in the Parx 500. 

Joe Reddick proved his greatness once again last week making it to Day 3 of the 2,557 player Big Stax 300. The poker player, author, and clothing line designer has one of the better track records in the history of the Big Stax series, but has had plenty of success outside of Bensalem to the tune of $745,000 in career earnings. The "Chip Bully" started his Day 1C journey post-dinner break and will look to run deep to another final table. 
If Matt Glantz is the "Godfather" of Parx, then Joe Palma is the "Mayor." The man they call "Worm" has been a Big Stax regular since its inception and the all-time leader in Parx cashes will look to add to his lead in the Big Stax 500 after min-cashing the 300. If there's one thing the field does not want to see on Day 2 or 3, it's "Worm Time" and Palma is hoping to make it happen.
