Already the only local player with two cashes at this year’s World Series of Poker, Tucsonan Sean Getzwiller reaffirmed his placement as the top Southern Arizona rounder at the 2009 WSOP by picking up a third cash over the weekend.

And, in the process, just missed out on his first final table appearance.

The 26-year-old Getzwiller took 10th place in a $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha Eight-or-Better event, earning $15,664 in the process. That gave him $25,176 in prize money for his three cashes (the other two were in No-Limit Hold’Em events) and also pushed then Tucson-area prize haul this year over $100,000.

Getzwiller, who now lives in Las Vegas, also secured sponsorship by a Connecticut-based player management group called Top Set.
