Huge Victory For Raio
 
 
Jun 15, 2025 11:00 PM
Level: 25   Blinds: 60,000 / 120,000   Ante: 120,000

In a hard fought battle in our massive final table stadium, St. Johns native Nick Raio has emerged victorious. Raio wins $49,729, a $3,000 package to play our championship event in Vegas in December, and the beautiful bronze Atlas trophy. The win also earns Raio the leaderboard trophy for the series, so earns two trophies in one night! 

Most of Raio's recent cashes have come in the Jacksonville area, and this event adds even more to his impressive lifetime tournament winnings of $401,370. When he's not playing poker, Raio spends time with his three children and his wife, whom her recently married in Aruba. He also owns CMD Trailer Sales And Leasing in Northwest Jacksonville, which keeps him very busy. Raio fired two bullets on Wednesday and started the day today with a below average stack of 169,000, but ran it up until he had every chip in play. 

Nick plans to use a portion of his winnings to play the main event this year at the World Series Of Poker. Good luck Nick! 

The Winner!

The Final Hand!
