Matt Giannetti Hanging Around

[user272102]

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Earlier we talked about Ravi Raghaven and his financial prowess in poker tournaments. One player who has earned more that is taking part in the action here today is Matt Giannetti who has $4.365 million in lifetime tournament earnings.

A good chunk of that came when Giannetti made the November Nine of the World Series of Poker Main Event back in 2011 for slightly over three million dollars but he's proven he is no one hit wonder as he recently won the World Poker Tour Lucky Hearts Poker Open in February for $298,304.

Giannetti recently picked up a nice sized pot when he bet 6,700 on the flop and called his opponent's 18,500 raise. The two checked the turn and Giannetti led out for 9,000 when the river came . His opponent mucked to give Giannetti the pot, moving his stack to approximately 80,000.
