Bracelet winner Konstantin Puchkov is one cash away from setting a new mark at the World Series of Poker. With his 10th cash of the series in yesterday's $5,000 No Limit Hold'em event, Puchkov tied the late Nikolay Evdakov for the most cashes in a single WSOP.

Puchkov is back at it today in this $1,500 event. And he's already well on his way to No. 11.

We just witnessed Puchkov eliminate Lou Procopio with {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} against {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} to add some ammunition to his stack. We'll keep an eye on the Russian's chase for history today.
