Konstantin Puchkov

Moscow resident and Konstantin Puchkov breeds and trains horses and apparently names all of his horses after poker terms.

Puchkov started playing on the international poker circuit 2007 and went 21 WSOP events before his first cash resulted in his first bracelet and fittingly it was in a H.O.R.S.E event in 2010 defeating "Sugar Bear" Al Barbieri for $256,820.

Puchkov’s best finish to date is his 13th place finish at EPT Barcelona Main Event for € 81,700.

We’ll be keeping a close eye on his progress to see if he can find another big score here in Sochi at the PokerStars Festival.
