Zoltan Czinkota (Davie, FL) is a name familiar to followers of the blog, along with players in the Florida poker community.  Czinkota has over $316,000 in career tournament earnings, and is coming off his best year of tournament poker by far.  Zoltan had (28) recorded cashes last year (which puts him 54th in the world for 2016), which equated to earnings for the year of $181,281.  He's continued his success this year in terms of quantity of cashes, but is still looking for his first significant score of the year.  Zoltan's most recent cash came two weeks ago, when he finished just short of the final table at the $350 No Limit Hold'em "Big Stack Special" at SHR ($1,884).
