Rick Block Wins 2014 Seneca Fall Poker Classic Main Event
The $1,000 2014 Seneca Fall Poker Classic Main Event came to a close on Monday afternoon. The tournament attracted 263 total entries, easily surpassing the $200,000 guaranteed prize pool. When it was all over, Rick Block was named the official champion after agreeing to a three-way deal at the final table with Veerab Zakarian and Dave Grana.
Block entered the day as the massive chip leader and eliminated two of the first three players at the final table to take total command. However, Zakarian and Grana made up some ground and the three players negotiated an even chop to bring the tournament to a close.
- Rick Block: $40,050
- Veerab Zakarian: $40,000
- Dave Grana: $39,445
This marks the second Seneca Fall Poker Classic title for Block, as well as the largest score of his career. Zakarian, the 19-year-old from Toronto, picks up the first cash of his bright and promising poker career, and Grana capped off a great series that also included a final table in Event #3.
