Chasing Player Ryan

@RyanGregorKC is the @HPTPoker leader in the Season XII Player of the Year race going in to this weekend's Peppermill Reno $1,100 Main Event.

Players are gunning to knock Gregor out of the top spot on the leaderboard to win an entry into 6 HPT's during Season XII - that's the prize for being Player of the Year.

Gregor - with a win in Kansas City, a 3rd place in Vicksburg, MS and a 7th at Blackhawk, CO - has his work cut out for him here in Level 1 of Day 1A as HPT Blackhawk champ Cord Garcia sat down at his table just a few minutes after cards went in the air.

Garcia, who also picked up HPT Player of the Year points with a mincash last week in Daytona Beach - is currently 6th in the Season XII POY race.

Don't forget that one table over from Ryan and Cord is Craig Casino, who is 5th in the POY race.
