$100K No-Limit Kickoff — Flight 1E

Justin Bold hails from Jacksonville, Florida, and has been immersed in the world of poker for 20 years, with the last five years marking his serious pursuit of the game. His introduction to poker came through playing with his grandfather, which sparked a lifelong interest. Over the years, Justin transitioned from video game poker to live games at the bestbet in Bayyard, where he was a regular presence. The online poker boom further fueled his passion, eventually leading him to travel for tournament series starting five years ago.

A notable highlight in Justin's poker career is his victory in the Stars and Stripes tournament at bestbet on Memorial Day 2026, where he secured a win of over $60,000. Outside of poker, Justin owns a Steak ‘n Shake franchise located conveniently near the bestbet on Monument Rd. When not at the poker table or managing his business, he enjoys spending quality time with his wife and kids and playing competitive softball.

Bold has $187,265 in live tournament winnings and is looking to add a big number to that at the PokerAtlas Tour stop in St. Augustine this week.

Chandler Usina hails from Saint Augustine, Florida, and has been playing poker for a decade, with a focus on live cash games in recent years. Usina's background in gaming has contributed to his strategic approach at the tables. One of his most memorable achievements in poker is flopping a straight flush to clinch a tournament victory. Outside of poker, he is pursuing a career in law enforcement.

While Usina doesn't have significant tournament results on the national stage, he is always near the top of the leaderboards at his local card room, bestbet in St. Augustine, Florida, and locals tell us that he is a ferocious presence in the cash games.
