WPT BPO: Super Turbo Survivors

$3300 + $200 WPT Borgata Poker Open Championship NLH

Spagnuolo Surviving the Survivor

The 11 am Super Turbo Survivor ended just before registration of the Championship Event closed and some of the the lucky $3,500 winners are now in the field including Marguerite Spagnuolo (Staten Island, NY).  

"I almost got run over," says Spagnuolo while on her way to an empty table after avoiding the rush of players heading to break. 

Spagnuolo and ~90 players began the day with 10 minute levels and she says it won't be hard to change gears while playing a deep structure with 75 minute levels and 30k in chips.  "I know how to play survivors," says Spagnuolo who gives all the credit to her family because of its support.

First and foremost her gratitude goes to husband Marco II, while proudly wearing her Farrell Lionness shirt as Marco the III is a freshman at Monsignor Farrell High School. Daughter Adriana rounds out the family.

"I'm going to turn $400 into $1 million," she says while anxiously waiting to play her first hand of the Championship Event, but its far from her first of the day.
