Gabriel Nassif On His First Time in Vegas: "I Never Left The Rio, I Just Played Poker"

Runner-up in the Event #19 $3,000 Six-Max Limit Hold'em, France's Gabriel Nassif is not new to deep runs at the World Series of Poker (WSOP).

With more than thirty cashes and nine final tables at the WSOP alone, the former Magic: the Gathering and today's proud member of the Team PokerStars.fr Pro Online has been putting together a series of remarkable results on the felt for over 10 years now.

Right after last Wednesday's second-place finish in Event #19, good for $142,631, Nassif sat down with PokerNews France's Julien Tissot to discuss the secret of his success and share some of his favorite memories about Las Vegas.
