Gisela Staton, 2022 PPO Seniors Champ

The last tournament on the 2022 Pinktober Poker Open schedule was the always popular Seniors 50+ Event. The tournament drew 121 entries and Gisela Staton, all the way from California, captured the last title of the series along with $6,435 for the outright win.

The great Monday afternoon crowd doubled the $10,000 before the first break and combined for a prize pool worth $24,805. The last 16 players were paid, and the field hit the money shortly before the dinner break after a long bubble.

Staton conquered a tough final table that included 2021 PPO champ Steve Trizis, and she took the title late in the evening.

Congratulations Gisela!
