Poker pro Matt Affleck is no stranger to success at the World Series of Poker and elsewhere on the tournament circuit, having amassed nearly $1.45 million in tourney cashes with a little under half that amount coming at the WSOP.
Among Affleck’s 17 WSOP cashes — including one so far this summer in Event #20: $1,500 No-Limit Hold’em — are a couple of memorable deep runs in the Main Event where he finished 80th in 2009, then 15th in 2010.
Affleck is one of the many contributors to the newly-released poker strategy book Jonathan Little’s Excelling at No-Limit Texas Hold’em.
