ElleSriracha

Level 24 : 200,000/400,000, 50,000 ante

Hailing from Boston, Zinno is no stranger to Canada. He holds a Word Poker Tour title from Niagara Falls, Canada and his other two cashes have been right here in Montreal. He made a deep run in February and looks to snag himself another title on Canadian soil.

Funny enough, Chan hails from British Columbia, Canada but the majority of his cashes come from the United States.
