Is this who I think it is?

From pokernews.com:

Pete is Best
Pete Best and Bradley Ellis are all in preflop. Best has K-K and Ellis has A-K. The board bricks out and Ellis is out. Best now has 350,000.

This isn't the same Pete Best who was the original drummer for the Beatles, is it? Probably not, but I suppose it's a possibility. I know he's still alive, but did he really cash in the Main Event?

Perhaps --

Brag: First former Beatle to cash in the main event
Beat: Even if he wins, Ringo still has more money
Variance: Ringo is a better drummer

Wondered the same thing when I saw that update. It seemed possible (although not likely). Looking at the chip counts listed on the WSOP site it shows him as "Pete de Best" which makes me doubt it is him more.
