Marc Levy wins Hard Rock main event in August
Poker pro Marc Levy of Boynton Beach prevailed in the heavyweight division of the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino monthly main event poker tournament.
Levy collected $27,650 in the field of 79 Saturday. (That's him in the photo, with his winning hand of pocket kings -- nice way to win one.)
Franklin Rojas of Plantation won the $575-entry cruiserweight division Wednesday, which drew 71 entrants. He cashed for $12,425.
Jose Torres of Cooper City took down the middleweight division Aug. 10, which cost $350 and drew 140. He earned $13,440.
It's been a hot week for Levy, one of South Florida's nice guys of poker. He was among six players who chopped first prize at the Isle on Monday in the $440 tournament, each garnering $6,133.
