Joey Gargiulo

Joey Gargiulo, known in poker circles as "Uncle Joey The Poker Wizard," hails from Bensonhurst, NY, and grew up on Long Island. He currently resides in North Las Vegas after spending time living on the road participating in poker circuits. Joey has been playing poker since he was five years old, transitioning from home games to underground New York games, then becoming an online player and cash game specialist. He ventured into live tournaments four years ago. Gargiulo's most significant poker achievement to date is securing a $48,000 payday for a 10th place finish in the Choctaw WPT Main Event, which he entered through a $200 satellite. Outside of playing, Joey is a poker author, intuitive poker coach, and spiritual guide. Despite facing the challenge of going blind multiple times in his life, he continues to make his mark in the poker world.
