Eight months down, four to go in 2015, and for the last three months-plus Anthony Zinno has enjoyed the lead in the 2015 Global Poker Index Player of the Year race. Another relatively quiet week on the tournament circuit meant little movement at the top again, with Zinno retaining the No. 1 position in the POY race for a 13th-straight week.
There was one newcomer in the GPI POY top 10 this week as Joe Kuether jumped up from No. 17 to No. 8 after having finished third in the $3,500 buy-in, 1,027-entry World Poker Tour Borgata Poker Open won by David Paredes.
