The Life & Times of a Naples Taxi Driver

Fort Myers has emerged as a prime residential spot in Florida. It also serves as the center of entertainment and tourism and offers high living standards. Access to beach is never a problem and major tourist resorts are within easy reach. Prentiss Pointe is located amidst the center of these attractions and offers something for everyone. It is a gated community with ample security arrangements to ensure that residents are free of concerns about their safety.

Naples man wins $150K poker jackpot at greyhound monitor

1:52 P.M. — John Monti, 61, of Naples, won a jackpot worth more than $150,000 in the Naples-Fort Myers Greyhound Observe.

Monti, a standard on the Bonita Spring’s poker space, received the Massive Slick Royal Flush Jackpot on Wednesday, Oct. 20.

To win the jackpot, players have to have a royal flush with the king and ace in their hand.

“It came on the flop,” Monti stated Wednesday. “It just happened. I tried to stay as calm as I could till the hand was over.”

But with any big jackpot comes some really tense moments.

“After I gained, they had to count all the cards,” Monti mentioned. “They needed to make certain they had been playing with a full deck and that all 52 cards were there.”

Monti says track and poker area officials seemed pleased that he gained.

“I believe they liked the fact that I’m a typical — that I come here to play a good deal and that I’m not a person who comes in once, wins and then isn’t noticed for 3 months.”

Monti, a retiree, said he had no immediate plans to spend his winnings.

“It’s not like it was a million bucks,” he mentioned. “It’ll arrive in handy. Possibly I’ll acquire a automobile.”
