Event 6: Barber Shop Quartet (minus 1)

$1,000 + $90 NL

Ed Aponte

Ed Aponte (Long Island, NY) didn't know about the $1,000 tournament until a trip to the barber shop yesterday afternoon. After recruiting his brother and cousin, they were in the car and heading to Borgata to play in this morning's event.

"As long as it's the weekend, I'm good," says Aponte, who didn't have any trouble making the time or convincing the family this is a trip worth taking.

Level 2 (50/100) is underway.
