Biography

Zinno was born in Cranston, Rhode Island. He graduated from Worcester Polytechnic Institute, before passing the Massachusetts state bar exam.

He embarked on a career as a professional poker player, recording his first cash on The Hendon Mob in March 2007.

As of October 2021, he has amassed over $10.3 million in lifetime earnings.

Zinno on the World Poker Tour (WPT)

His first WPT title came in September 2013, when he defeated Vanessa Selbst heads-up to win the WPT Borgata Poker Open for $825,099.

Two years later, he won not only his second WPT title after taking down the Fallsview Poker Classic for over $300,000, but this third as well after winning the L.A Poker Classic in back-to-back performances. In doing so, he became the third player after Gus Hansen and Carlos Mortensen to win three WPT titles.

As a result, Zinno was named the WPT Season XIII Player of the Year.

Zinno at the World Series of Poker (WSOP)

After an incredible start to 2015, it was only fitting that this was the year Zinno picked up his first WSOP bracelet - and he did it in style. He won the prestigious Event #60: $25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha High Roller for $1,122,196.

"It's been something I've wanted longer than anything else in my life. It's more important than when I passed the bar exam," he told PokerNews at the time. "It ranks among the best few days of my life. The best day of my life is when my godson was born, my nephew, but this is the best day besides that. I can't think of anything better. I've got a bracelet, in one of my best and most favorite games, the final table was tremendously skilled and that's a huge factor."

Zinno would amass eleven WSOP top-ten finishes between 2016 and 2018, before picking up his second WSOP bracelet in 2019. He won Event #60: $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better for $279,920.

When the WSOP returned to the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Zinno wasted no time and clinched his third WSOP bracelet in Event #19: $10,000 Seven Card Stud Championship. In a star-studded 62-player field, Zinno defeated a final table featuring five other bracelet-winners including Phil Hellmuth, Stephen Chidwick and Jason Gola.
