FSPC Event 1 (Flight 1A): Zakarya Standing Tall To Start The Day

2017 Florida State Poker Championships
Event 1 - $175 No Limit Hold'em ($100,000 GTD)
Level 6 (Blinds 200/400/50)
Total Flight 1A Entries: 86

Zakarya Wolgamott (Coconut Creek, FL) 

Even though he entered the tournament about (30) minutes before the first break, Zakarya Wolgamott (Coconut Creek, FL) is already sitting with one of the larger stacks in this early field (48,000).  Wolgamott is coming off of a recent tournament "win," earning first place money in a heads-up chop of the Saturday morning "Big Stack Turbo Bounty" ($100 No Limit Hold'em) on June 17th, worth $750.  That puts Zakarya's recorded career earnings just short of $10,000, with the addition of another June tournament score in the "special" $75 No Limit Hold'em ($50,000 GTD) event earlier in the month.

Wolgamott was part of a large group of "fashionably late" players to jump into action over the last few levels:
