Event 2: 1st Place - Gargan

$350 + $50 +$100 Black Chip Bounty NLH   

Joe Gargan (Brooklyn, NY)
$24,625

Joe Gargan ripped through the final table of this event, busting seven out of eight opponents.  In addition to the prize money, Joe will collect $1,800 for his 18 black bounty chips.

Joe handles quality control for a shoe company and travels frequently to China.  He only plays occasionally and only played this event by accident.

"I meant to enter the PLO tournament" [event 3] he says, but ended up in this tournament [event 2].  "I can play Hold'em whenever I want, but it is hard to find a PLO game".

Joe's accident worked out well for him and after getting some rest, he's going to try to come back and play some more during the Summer Open.
