John Racener

John “J Money” Racener, a a 22-year-old poker player from Tampa Florida who’s been a pro all his adult life, overcame a 2-1 heads-up chip disadvantage to win the championship event of the WSOP Circuit championship event at Harrah’s Atlantic City. Victory brought him $379,392, a $10,000 seat into next year’s championship WSOP event, and a handsome gold trophy ring.

“I needed the money because I don’t work,” he exulted after his win at Harrah's Atlantic City. Racener started off his pro career spectacularly, celebrating his 21st birthday by finishing third and collecting $103,527 in the championship event here last year. He then went on a tear with 10 more cashes, including $166,161 for finishing eighth in the Borgata Winter Open/WPT event. Racener, who taught himself poker four years ago, also enjoys sports and night life.
