TORONTO—An Ontario man who captured the million-dollar first prize at a poker tournament in Barcelona on the weekend says his only goal was to win enough cash to put his granddaughter through university.
Jack Hinchey of Oshawa said his 10-year-old granddaughter, Victoria, was on his mind throughout the competition, where he faced off against some of the best poker players in the world.
After winning the World Poker Crown, Hinchey came home last night and was greeted by friends and family.
