Gimbel won his seat into the PCA Main Event in a $1,000 live satellite the day before the tournament began. Moneywise, this is already his best result to date but he says he won a bunch of online tournaments and in June he took down the 2009 Florida State Poker Championships at Isle Casino in Pompano Beach for $67,860.

His most recent deep run online was snagging around $40,000 for a sixth-place finish in the PokerStars Sunday Million. If he manages to win the PCA, he will be the youngest ever champion in the tournament's seven year history.

He started playing poker when he was 13, tagging along to home games with his older brother. Gimbel had been planning to study business at the University of Alabama from September but he got sick in the first few weeks, reckoned he couldn't catch up and decided to focus full time on poker.
