Jason Block, 2022 PPO Event 6 champ

The last week of the 2022 Pinktober Poker Open is rolling out games that are getting bigger as we near the Championship on October 14. Event 6 was a $600 buy-in No Limit Hold’em tournament and Jason Block came away with the outright win for $16,190 over a tough final table.

The tournament drew 116 entries to more than double the $30,000 into a prize pool worth $60,900. The last 15 players made the money and they got there after the late dinner break.

The final table featured a talented final table that included former Tampa champ Tom Nguyen, WPT/WSOP winner James Calderaro, Cheri Beatty, Jeremy Becker, and reigning WPT Player of the Year Jake Ferro. Block outlasted them all and took home his second major Tampa title to go along with his 2022 Winter Poker Open series win.

Congrats Jason!
