"Joe You Can't Win a Tournament Today"

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante

Joe Ciffa, who won two events already in the 2014 Summer Slam, spent part of the day here in the Seneca Poker Room but he decided to take a day off from tournaments and play cash games instead. As he made his way to the cage to cash in his chips, he received a lot of congratulations from dealers and players and even got a reminder that he can't win a tournament today since this is a four-day event.

"i'm not playing today anyway," he responded with a smile.
