The 2022 Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open set the record for largest poker tournament in Florida history, beating out the Rock ‘n’ Roll Poker Open last November in Hollywood, which drew a total of 6,196 entries.
Covington, 34, has not competed since a unanimous decision victory over Jorge Masvidal as part of the UFC 272 pay-per-view (PPV) event back in March, a grudge match that unfortunately led to some extracurricular activity on the streets of Miami.
Masvidal is expected back in court for his role later this month.
