Family Fun
A few more locals put their money down to play some poker today and we have a family affair in both tournaments running. Angela Prada-Moed and Michael Moed each have seats with Angela playing in Event 1 while her husband plays a little Omaha/8 in Event 2.
Angela has plenty of results to her credit including five cashes and two final tables during last summer’s WSOP. Michael’s résumé shows six Omaha/8 titles including one in each of the last two Lucky Heart series.
When the two aren’t beating down opponents at the table, the two own Sweet Times Cupcakes in Miami. A popular destination for those looking to get their baked goods fix.
