Femi Fashakin

The Florida poker scene has a lot of talent spread around the Sunshine State with its fair share of huge success. We have one of our more recent success stories in the Pinktober Poker Open Main Event this afternoon.

This past summer, Femi Fashakin joined the ranks of WSOP bracelet winners from Florida and he to do a lot of work to do to get his. The World Series of Poker celebrated its 50th anniversary this summer in Las Vegas and put together a tournament called The Big 50, a $500 buy-in game with four starting flights.

The tournament drew a whopping 28,371 entries, the biggest field in WSOP history, and Fashakin made it through that massive field to earn the bracelet along with a $1,147,449 payday.

An insane “return on investment”.
