Scott Hecker (Boca Raton, FL) may not have been featured numerous times on the blog, but many of the players in the field know who he is, having been a poker room supervisor as a Florida-based poker room for years.

With the word of a potential overlay spreading across the community, we are seeing a lot of new faces across this Flight 1G field.  While Scott Hecker (Boca Raton, FL) may not be familiar to those that follow the blog, he has been seeing some recent tournament success.  Scott has two final table cashes in the last month, including a win in a recurring $100 No Limit Hold'em event here at the Isle Poker Room ($1,502).  Hecker has just under $50,000 in live tournament earnings, a majority of which was won in a year's' period (2016-2017).  Scott's largest tournament score came back in 2016, when he chopped a $130 No Limit Hold'em ($100,000 GTD) event at Coconut Creek ($9,283).
