GIMBEL COMES UP A LITTLE SHORT IN QUEST FOR HOLLYWOOD DOUBLE

SOURCE: Seminole Hard Rock Poker Room > @SHRThePokerRoom on Twitter

It was almost deja vu all over again at the Seminole Hard Rock in Hollywood, Florida. Almost a year ago to the day, Harrison Gimbel was earning a 330K payday and a win at the Fall Poker Open Championship in Hollywood - Gimbel was two positions away from doing the exact same thing again yesterday, except this time it was at the Rock and Roll WPT Regional Main Event.

Gimbel, the 2010 PCA Champion, earned (surprisingly) only his first PTPR Score of the season.

The actual champion, when all was said and done, Farhan Madhani picked up the victory.

One of our favourite players - Allen Kessler - finished fourth in the event, earning his fifth PTPR Score of the year ...
