Joe Ciffa took down Event #2 of the Summer Slam last night, becoming the first outright winner of the series (Scott Hosbach was determined the winner of Event #1 after a five-way chop).
In addition to today's $200 tournament there is a $100 event at 6 p.m. ET. Here's a look at the full schedule for the 2014 Summer Slam:

Hello and welcome to PokerNews' live coverage of the 2014 Seneca Niagara Summer Slam in Niagara Falls, New York! The Seneca Poker Room is playing host to the annual series with seven events through August 3, and we'll be on the floor providing up-to-the-minute reports for the duration.
The Summer Slam continues today at 11 a.m. with Event #3, a $200 no-limit hold'em event. Each player will receive 15,000 in chips and the blind levels will increase every 30 minutes. Registration will be available for the first four levels and re-entry will be open for eight levels. This one-day tournament will end when a champion is crowned later this evening.
One interesting story going into Sunday is Sam Guercio who final tabled each of the first two events of the 2014 Summer Slam, finishing ninth in Event #1 and fourth in Event #2. However, with Event #2 playing into the early morning hours on Sunday, Guercio hinted that he may take today off and recharge before the big $50,000 Guaranteed event that begins on Monday.
Event #3 begins in about 30 minutes, so be sure to keep your browsers locked to PokerNews for complete coverage of today's event at Seneca Niagara.
