Event 8: Grady Yeager Wins Seniors Event

$300 Seniors (50+) No Limit Hold’em

4 handed, the remaining players decided to do an even chop and play out the rest of the level to determine the overall winner. Grady Yeager would win the last hand of the night when his Ace-Three bested Bob Chow’s Q-8 when an Ace hit the river to outdraw Chow who had hit a Queen. Grady is a 70 year old retired police officer from Cape Coral, Florida who said he made the 2 1/2 drive to take part in the Seniors Event. “I like playing Seniors tournaments and HORSE tournaments. I play quite a bit in the Naples/Ft. Myers area.” The former surgical technician in the Air Force will have a nice drive back home tonight. Congratulations on your win Grady!
