Steven Buckner is on an extended heater that's seen him travel across the country to various poker tours and circuit stops and pick up hundreds of thousands of dollars in tournament earnings in the process.
In the past 14 months, the Coral Springs, Florida resident has played everything from the 2021 Wynn Summer Classic in Las Vegas to the World Series of Poker Circuit stop in Cherokee, North Carolina and the Bally's Colorado Poker Championship.
Most notably, Buckner, an eclectic personality who is hard to miss at the poker table with his usual unlit cigar, bright tracksuit and blaring Italian bark, finished second in the World Poker Tour (WPT) Choctaw Main Event in May for a career-best $320,000.
