DaMatrix Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Re: WSOPe £5000 PL Omaha live updates Jeff Lisandro also won a bracelet this year and Vince Burgio (1 bracelet too) can also be considered Italian, well his parents were from Sicily I think but he's lived in the US all his life probably.
