The traditional shuffle up and deal announcement was made by Tournament Director Thomas Kremser (center), joined by WPT Commentator Vince Van Patten and Royal Flush Girl Brittany Bell.

Bell lives on the island of Guam, and recently won the title of Miss Universe Guam. A former Miss Arizona, Bell will be competing in the Miss Universe pageant in Miami this January.

Good luck, Brittany!
