2022 Harvey's Lake Tahoe Main Event Champion Jarod Minghini and Friends

The 2022 Harvey’s Lake Tahoe Main Event was one of the most memorable in WSOP Circuit history, as local star Jarod Minghini called his shot on Day 1 of the tournament in honor of his brother Bobby who had passed away just days earlier.

Minghini proceeded to dismantle the field through Days 1 and 2 and then put on an incredibly dominant final table performance to claim his fourth career WSOP Circuit ring.
