Event 14: Finally 50

Seniors NL

Frigeria, Fifty and Fabulous

There's no hard and fast rule on the age of Seniors Event participants as evidence by Angelo Modica, the 29 year old who's taken ribbing for playing in the tournament. Meet Vincent Frigeria (Long Island, NY) who's been waiting the last few years to enter this event.

"I just turned 50 and had my I.D. ready, but no one asked to see it," he says with a big smile.

Frigeria shrugs and is back at the table with a short stack as one of the younger players in the field.
