Pumping Gas Or Pumping Pots?

$300 + $50 NLH

Gionni Demers

Gionni Demers (Jackson, NJ) first learned holdem at age 16 and has been hooked ever since.

His goal is to become a professional player and he has his Dad's blessing. But, at age 22 his back-up plan is to attend Ocean County College in the fall and run his Pop's gas station with his brothers and Uncle.

Demers is primarily an internet player, playing up to 35 small tournaments a day, but he's making the transition to cash and tournaments. He built his bankroll from a $20 on-line credit into 15k, in one week, after winning two tournies.

He plans on cashing in some early Borgata Summer Poker Open events and parlay the winnings into more events.

Gionni was proud to report he earned most of his 18,000 stack today on a stone cold high octane bluff.
