WSOP 2015: Electrical Engineer Wins Over $1.2 Million in Millionaire Maker Event
The World Series of Poker makes a dream come true for Adrian Buckley.
Adrian Buckley, an electrical engineer from Westminster, Colorado, outlasted a 7,275 player field to win $1,277,193 and his first World Series of Poker bracelet. In fact, winning the Millionaire Maker represents his first WSOP in the money finish of any kind.
“I mean, getting through 7,000 people. It’s not something you think about until it happens’” Buckley said. “I hoped to run super deep, and knew I had the skill to get here. But it’s just surreal to live out the dream.”
Buckley entered the final day against a strong final table with only 10 big blinds in his chipstack, but tremendous patience, skill and a bit of run good helped the 27-year old defeat the likes of Mike Sexton, Erick Lindgren and Olivier Busquet on his way to the title.
