Anthony Guagliardo Defeats His Former Backer Heads-Up to Win His First WSOP Circuit Ring

Event 11 Champion Anthony Guagliardo
Event 11 Champion Anthony Guagliardo

Anthony Guagliardo outlasted a field of 247 entries — including his former backer Steven Pellingra — to win his first WSOP Circuit ring in Event #11, $400 No Limit Hold’em Turbo.

“It feels great,” said Guagliardo after his victory. “Especially getting heads-up with my old backer, who got me started out. This was surreal.”

Guagliardo came into the final table seventh in chips, but caught a break in the first hand.

“In the first hand at the final table, I had queens and cracked aces,” said Guagliardo. “There were so many times I was almost out the door and got lucky. You’ve got to get lucky to win turbos.”

Two-time WSOP bracelet winner Loni Harwood finished third, falling just a little short of winning would have been her sixth WSOP Circuit ring.

“She’s really tough,” Guagliardo said about Harwood. “She played great, and put me to a lot of tough decisions. I definitely respect her game a lot.”

Guagliardo has been playing here at Seminole Hard Rock Tampa since he was 18 years old, and appreciates the recent expansion.

“I love it,” said Guagliardo. “And the turnout for this was incredible. I look forward to playing more Circuit stops.”

Classic Rockers: Billy Dubay Wins Seniors Event for $4,503 and a Seat

Below is a recap of Event 11 of the Winter Poker Open, the $180 Seniors Classic Rockers event, that concluded during the early morning hours of Wednesday, December 14.

2016 Winter Poker Open

Tampa, FL
Event 11
$180 Seniors Classic Rockers 50+
Entries: 145
Prize Pool: $19,375
December 13, 2016

Billy Dubay became the latest Winter Poker Open guitar trophy winner at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa during the early morning hours of Wednesday. Dubay’s title came at the hands of 145 “seniors” in the $180 Seniors Classic Rockers event and was the result of a heads-up chop with Andrew Butte. The duo split the prize pool evenly — each pocketing $4,503 — but Dubay went home with a $1,650 Championship seat and, of course, the trophy to boot.

There was plenty of play late in the tournament with big stacks and 30-minute levels. In fact, play was so deep that the bubble lasted 27 hands. After the better part of an hour, it was none other than Seminole Hard Rock Tampa ambassador Wally Maddah who busted 19th and went home with the unenviable honor of bubble boy. Maddah got short when he ran his fullhouse into an opponent’s better full house, then got his last 13,000 in during the 4,000/8,000 level. His pair was no good.

With Maddah’s exit, the remaining 18 locked up a score and play picked up. Notables to work their way into a scored include World Series of Poker gold bracelet winner Andre Boyer and Tampa regular Marvin Karlins.

Dubay started the final table as one of the short stacks, but quickly busted Byron Schenk 10th and Pete Kosakowski ninth. From there, he watched as Wes Skinner went out eighth, Randy Spain seventh, Debra Dorcy sixth and Lenny Rubin fifth. He went back into action busting Brenda Worley fourth and Elton “Skunk” Hates third. Dubay and Butte played a couple hands heads up, but quickly agreed to the aforementioned chop.

Dubay is a regular of the Tampa property and has recorded multiple cashes including an eighth-place finish in this very event in 2014. The win marks his first major tournament win and moves him to over $35,000 career earnings.

The Seniors Classic Rockers event was open to all participants age 50 or older. The 145-entry field generated a prize pool of $19,375.

1st: Billy Dubay – $4,503 + Championship seat

Billy Dubay

Andrew Butte was able to find a small double up at the start of heads up play but it wasn’t a big dent for Dubay’s stack. The two decided to split the remaining prize pool right down the middle with Dubay taking the title, guitar trophy, and $1,650 WPO Championship seat courtesy of his massive lead.

Elton “Skunk” Hayes

Elton “Skunk” Hayes was tough to knock out. He was giving the table all he could, doubling up multiple times but never building a stack back up to put Billy Dubay at risk.

The final hand came when he called a 125,000 raise from Dubay leaving 140,000 behind. Hayes put those in the middle after the Qh7c2d flop and was ahead with KsQs versus Dubay’s QcTd.

This time is was Dubay coming from behind thanks to the Th turn and Hayes could not return the favor on the 5d river to exit in third place.
