Jordan Saccucci wanted for major robbery in Canada, bounces out of country to play WSOP Paradise
Very weird story.
Jordan Saccucci was wanted in Canada for allegedly being part of a home robbery gang.

Canadian authorities were looking for him in late November, and arrested him on December 5. But he popped up in the strangest of places -- the WPT Paradise!

Yes, Saccucci was seen competing in Day 1b of the WSOP Paradise Main Event, but was booted from the Atlantis resort shortly thereafter, and therefore disqualified.
It's not clear if he was booted because of a behavioral issue, or because of his arrest in Canada for armed robbery, but he's out.
It's also not clear how Saccucci was able to leave Canada, just days after being arrested for such a major crime.
He won an EPT event in 2022 for $1,000,000, which I have to assume either went to backers or got chunked off in the past year (or both).
