Aaron Gamino Wins Event #4: $400 NLH One-Day for Second Gold Ring
PokerNews is in town to live report the $1,700 Main Event here at the World Series of Poker Circuit at Horseshoe Tunica, but that is just one of the gold ring events that will have played out by the end of the series.
In Event #4: $400 NLH One-Day, 207 entrants generated a $68,310 prize pool that was paid out to the top 32 players including Carl Masters (4th - $5,113), Joe Saleh (7th - $2,188), Heath Claxton (17th - $836), Eddie Shade (25th - $632), and Heather Hardie (32nd - $600).
Aaron Gamino wound up as the last player standing after defeating Adam Racca in heads-up play, good for $16,194 in prize money and his second gold ring. It came just a few months after he won his first at the WSOPC Horseshoe Southern Indiana stop.
“It's nice. I think I’ve cashed like half of the tournaments I’ve played recently and I’ve final tabled the fourth of them,’’ the 31-year-old Gamino said after the win. “Everyone is pretty short in the Turbo so I just played pretty straightforward and chipped up, and when I got it in a few times it held.”
