Ben Mintz is a New Orleans native, and proud of it. The very second our Live Reporting Team touched down in the Crescent City, he was tweeting at us to make sure we had an authentic, enjoyable NOLA experience.
He recently relocated in order to play online poker, and has nearly a quarter of a million dollars in live tournament earnings. His largest score came in September of 2011, when he finished 13th in the River Guaranteed $3,000,000 Poker Series, earning $35,230.
Mintz is off to a great start here on Day 1a, and sits with around 75,000 chips.
