World Series of Poker Media Director Nolan Dalla just made an announcement to the remaining players recognizing a truly remarkable feat. Konstantin Puchkov, who won the Event #31 $1,500 H.O.R.S.E. event at the 2010 WSOP for $256,820, has now notched a record-tying tenth cash in a single year.
Coincidentally, Puchkov now shares the record with another Russian, the late Nikolay Evdakov, who had ten cashes in 2008.
