| Charlemagne Benjamin (Miami, FL) |
From 2012-2015, Charlemagne Benjamin (Miami, FL) was just "testing the waters" of the Florida tournament poker circuit, accumulating less than $15,000 in combined earnings of the course of the four years. Then came 2016, and Benjamin would have his breakout year, introducing himself as a player to be reckoned with on tournament scene. Charlemagne recorded a total of (20) cashes for the year, totaling earnings just over $133,000. He had four five-figure scores, all from events at Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood, as well as a final table during last year's Battles At The Beach (Event 6 - $250 No Limit Hold'em Bounty).
Benjamin's trademark dreadlocks set him aside from most all other players in any poker room he entered, but today we are seeing the "new look" Charlemagne for the first time. The locks have been retired, and Benjamin is all business this afternoon. The change has already brought some good fortune his way, as he reached the WPT Deepstacks $1,100 Main Event final table last month during the Lucky Hearts Poker Open (5th Place - $77,127).
