Montisanti Named Seniors Event Champ
Level 4
: 200/300, 300 ante
Today's Ante Up Poker Tour Main Event in the Silks Poker Room at Tampa Bay Downs is the culmination of a six-event series that's been taking place all week long.
On Tuesday, Event #2: $130 Seniors (50 and older) No-Limit Hold'em ($5,000 GTD) drew 55 runners and offered up a $5,335 prize pool. The top six were slated to get paid, but thanks to a $20 save 7th-place finisher James Gibson received a $120 consolation prize as bubble boy.
In the end, the final six worked a chop with Fred Montisanti finishing on top for $1,208.

Adibi Loses a Small One
Level 4
: 200/300, 300 ante
The player in the hijack opened for 800 and Matt Adibi defended his big blind to see a 
flop.
Adibi check-called a bet of 1,600 and then check-called one of 1,700 on the 
turn.
When the 
completed the board on the river, Adibi checked for the third time and his opponent slowed down by checking behind.
"Five," Adibi said without showing his hand. The hijack then rolled over the 
for top pair and Adibi mucked.
Despite losing that hand Adibi is among the current 1B big stacks.

Tammy Leonard limped from the hijack and Kerry Hartman called out of the cutoff. Joe Mole then raised to 1,300 on the button, both blinds folded, and it was three-way action to the flop, which came down 
.
Leonard was first to act and wasted little time in moving all in for her last 9,700. Hartman quickly folded and Mole followed suit by releasing his hand.

Kelly Looking to Parlay Satellite Win Into Big Payday
Level 2
: 100/200, 100 ante
One of the players in action here on Day 1B is Brian Kelly, originally from Schenectady, New York but now living in nearby Clearwater, Florida.
Earlier this week, Kelly won his way into the Main Event in one of Tampa Bay Downs' many satellites.
"I took the $100 that I won from Wednesday's tournament, and registered for the $240 $60K guaranteed AUPT main event satellite at the Silk's poker room in Tampa," Kelly posted to social media. "80 people enrolled and 30 walked away with a voucher. I was one of them. There's an article in Ante Up magazine about this on page 26. The winner will get a picture on the cover, a trophy, and an entry into the AUPT championship in July. This was an easy win for me. There was never any real doubt. It was like a walk in the park."
Only time will tell if Kelly will be able to parlay his satellite into a cash here in the 2019 Ante Up Poker Tour Tampa Bay DownsMain Event.
