Nick Rigby
The first blow came on Thursday, when he took the US$400 PokerNews PowerStack, a result that earned him US$28,010 and his fourth RGPS ring. For many, that would have already been enough to close a dream week. But Rigby had other plans.
On Friday he returned to the tables as if nothing had happened and stayed on fire. First he won the US$500 PLO Ring Event, a tournament that gathered 93 entries, and added US$11,719 along with his fifth ring on the circuit. Up to that point, a brilliant day. The incredible didn’t stop.
Rigby Pointed Out In An Interview That The 3-2 «Is A Joke Hand, In The Pure Style Of The Infamous 7-2 Off», And For That Reason, Laughing, He Clarified That He Sees And Represents It As If They Were Aces.
With no time to relax, Rigby late registered for the US$200 Turbo NLH Ring Event, which had 121 entries, and once again advanced to the final positions.

Thus, Rigby sealed his third title in less than two days, achieved three rings at this RGPS stop and accumulated four cashes for more than US$45,000 in the St. Louis series.
