Francis Margaglione

Florida’s Francis Margaglione has a knack for late-game heroics at the Seminole Hard Rock. Twice he’s carded victories during one of the last-chance events at the property’s series. The first came in Event #27 of the 2015 Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open. Margaglione bested 187 entries in a $200 Turbo for $7,242. Almost exactly a year later, back at SHRPO he won a $250 Turbo besting 137 entries for $7,000.

Today’s Main Event isn’t slated to finish until Monday, the last day of the series. Margaglione is jockeying for position early and hopes to again record a late-game win in South Florida.
