Andrew Meldrum at the World Series of Poker?

I noticed an Andrew Meldrum on the player list of the World Series Main Event, currently in progress:

I'm pretty sure this is the Aussie chess player.. He is currently up a bit from his starting stack of 20,000 Go Andrew!

Another sighting: Jennifer Shahade made a cash in the women's event.

Sadly, he didn't last the day. Looks like he was one of the last out..

Another familiar name popped up in the money (112th) in event 49 ($1500 NLH won by JC Tran) was Theos Rippis. I'm assuming its the former chess-playing one. Looks like a tough and pretty large field too!
