With $164,398 in career tournament earnings, Alex Rivera is one of Western New York's top tourney grinders.
Locally, his resume boasts tons of big cashes, including a 2012 Summer Slam title that marked the second biggest score of his career, just under the $22,538 he collected for his 2011 Venetian Deep Stack Extravaganza win in Las Vegas.
Rivera actually led Day 1a of the 2014 edition of the Summer Slam Main Event before booking a 20th-place finish.
Here in 2015 he's off to the kind of start that might get him there again, having got it in with kings versus jacks to drag a massive pot and jump up among the early leaders.
