Big Stax 1500 (Day 1A): Picture Of Consistency

Level 4 (Blinds 150/300/50)
Total Entries: 72

Ari Engel

Ari Engel may reside in Las Vegas, NV, but he spends most of his time traveling the world playing tournament poker.  His poker resume could fill up the pages of a novel, so breaking it down into numbers may be slightly easier:

Total Live Tournament Earnings: $1,426,000
Total Live Recorded Cashes: 101
Total Online Earnings: 2,100,000
WSOP Circuit Rings: 6 (T-2nd All-Time)
2012 Number Of Cashes: 33rd (Worldwide)
2013 Number Of Cashes: 3rd
2014 Number Of Cashes: 64th

Engel consistently goes deep in tournaments, as you can see by his rankings in number of cashes by year.  His best score came late last year when he won the HPT St. Louis $1600 Main Event for over $142,000.  Considering that is his biggest live score compared to what his lifetime earnings are, it only furthers the belief that Ari may be the most consistent player in the game.
