It was announced in the reports via WSOP.Com.

The guys name is Joe Stiers (Twitter: https://twitter.com/Joe_Stiers )

According to him, he was banned from all Caesars properties after being caught card counting in Baltimore 3 years ago. It appears he was using the name Joe Conor to play...Conor really being his middle name.

He later admits in tweets that he wasn't kicked out at the BJ table, but while he was in a poker tournament, they told him he was trespassing and kicked him out then, when he caused a disturbance that is when security told him he was banned from all properties.

He also admits he played a WPT @ another property he was banned from...Maryland Live...and they found out who he was but said they didn't care, just not to come back ----- I doubt the validity of this story
