David Stefanski (Waterford, CT) |
The "feature" table is currently home to Je Wook Oh and Marsel Backa, both Foxwoods "regulars" although Oh is primarily a tournament player while Backa is a cash game specialist.
Oh has close to $250,000 in live tournament earnings and finished as the runner up in the last Foxwoods Championship event, making $63,000 in December's Mega Stack Challenge Main Event, while Backa just won the opening $100,000 GTD event of this Card Player Poker Tour series for the biggest tournament score of his career.
But, while Oh and Backa were ending 2014 and starting 2015 with big Foxwoods title runs, David Stefanski (Waterford, CT) is coming off a hiatus from poker, as he started the New Year with the birth of his daughter.
Stefanski is clearly already a winner this year, as his daughter and wife are both happy and healthy at home, but he's looking to get back to his winning ways "on the felt", making his first poker tournament appearance of 2015 here in the Card Player Poker Tour Main Event.
Stefanski has certainly done a lot of winning in his career, as he's amassed close to $700,000 in live tournament earnings to date, including winning three Foxwoods Poker titles in 2010, 2012 and 2014.
He's also made deep Final Table runs at Borgata Poker Opens, the DeepStacks Poker Tour, L.A. Poker Classics and the North American Poker Tour.
Stefanski and the rest of the stacked "feature" table can be watched live at foxwoodslive.com.
