Event 7 Flight A: Josias Santos Eyes Another

Josias Santos

Josias Santos is quietly becoming of the steadiest of tournament players at Seminole Hard Rock Tampa. His first cash at the property came in 2014, but he’s recorded numerous in the year’s since. Most recently, Santos finished fourth in this June’s WPTDeepStacks-Tampa $350 for almost $19,000. Of course, that was overshadowed in recent days by his victory in Event 3 of the Winter Poker Open. He defeated 184 entries in the $150 Turbo to earn $4,749 following a heads-up deal.

Santos is back in action in today’s $570 and looks to repeat the feat.

Event 7 Flight A: Table 31 Seat 2 for Tony March

Tony March

Tony March is a regular in the Seminole Hard Rock Tampa room and he’s becoming a regular at Table 31 Seat 2 as well.

Yesterday, March maneuvered through a tough, 508-entry field and graced the final table in the $150 Deep Stack. March got a bit lucky when he was back against the ropes only to see the board read a straight for a chopped pot, but his good fortune stopped there. He went on to exit eighth earning $1,690.

The $150 final table played out on Table 31 and the draw saw March sitting in Seat 2. Now, about 12 hours later, Table 31 is in the rotation for Flight A of the $570 and March drew — you guessed it — Table 31 Seat 2.

We’ll keep an eye on March’s progress in the event.
