The smallest buy-in SHRPO tournament in The Big 4 still outperformed many tournaments with the same buy-in. The nine final table members have accounted for more than $7 million in tournament earnings including WSOP braclets and SHRP titles.
Seat 1: Adam Krach
Longmeadow, MA
1,310,000 (22 bb)
Krach is a new player from Massachusetts with only three tournament results to his credit but all coming this year. Two of those happened this summer when he cashed in the massive-field WSOP Colossus II event and followed that up with a 24th place finish in the WSOP Main Event.
Seat 2: Jordan Joeckel
Tampa, FL
1,005,000 (17 bb)
Joeckel comes from the west coast of Florida but also has some big scores in Massachusetts. He final tabled a Foxwoods Poker Classic event but his last big finish came with a deep run in the 2015 WPT Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown Championship.
Seat 3: George Boyadjian
Pompano Beach, FL
500,000 (8 bb)
Our shortest stack at the final table is a SHRP regular. Boyadjiam has won five tournaments at the Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood, FL including victories during the Lucky Hearts Poker Open and Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown.
Seat 4: Guy Smith
Shelton, CT
1,420,000 (24 bb)
Smith is another Northeast grinder at the final table and he’s coming off a win in Foxwoods $1,000 Summer Kickoff. His best result here wasn’t too bad either; he finished 57th in the 2014 Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open Championship.
Seat 5: Marsha Wolak
Pompano Beach, FL
595,000 (10 bb)
Wolak is a familiar site during SHRP events. She won a WSOP Circuit Seniors event and follwed that up with a Seniors event win here during the 2015 Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown. But what she’s most known for his her gold bracelet from winning the 2011 WSOP Ladies Championship.
Seat 6: Phil Hui
San Antonio, TX
4,575,000 (76 bb)
Hui is among the most accomplished players at the final table and has nearly $1 million in career earnings. He has four WSOP Circuit rings over the years and captured his first WSOP bracelet in the 2014 $3,000 Omaha/8 event. In recent news, Hui finished second in the H.O.R.S.E. event earlier this series, almost earning his second SHRP trophy.
Seat 7: Daniel Buzgon
Marlton, NJ
675,000 (11 bb)
While Hui may have more tournament victories than him, Buzgon has nearly $1.6 million in career earnings. His only tournament win came during the 2015 Borgata Winter Open but his biggest score was a televised WPT Borgata Poker Open final table where he finished third for $335K.
Seat 8: Aaron Massey
Chicago, IL
655,000 (11 bb)
Hui has tournament wins and Buzgon has big cash, but Massey has them both. He’s won a dozen tournaments including two HPT titles, good enough to earn him that tour’s Player of the Year honors. Massey has nearly $3 million in career earnings, five cashes over six-digits, including a Foxwoods title and WSOP third place finish in 2014.
Seat 9: Ruslan Dykshteyn
Hollywood, FL
1,690,000 (28 bb)
A local sleeper, the Hollywood Florida resident has nearly $800,000 in career earnings including $200,000 for a WSOP Circuit Main Event win in 2014.
