2008 WSOP Diary, June 18: Dario Minieri Wins His First WSOP Gold

Not much happened in way of championships, the pace has slowed up a tad now that we are on the downhill side of this year's World Series of Poker. The only bracelet that was handed out today was to some kid who looks like a character from a Harry Potter book. Dario Minieri was grinning like the proverbial cat that made the canary his breakfast and was decked out in his trademark scarf. In order to win Event #31 ($2,500 No Limit Holdem Six-Handed) he had to go through Seth Fischer for the eventual championship.
