Benjamin Underwood, dubbed the “Deep Stack King” at last year’s World Series of Poker, is back in Las Vegas and ready to make another strong run. The Canadian standout earned that nickname after scoring three top-five finishes in three live Deepstack events, earning Player of the Week honors along the way.

While he’s still chasing his first WSOP bracelet, Underwood already boasts over $1 million in live tournament earnings, according to Hendon Mob. His favorite events are Limit Hold’em, where his strategic edge often shines through.

Off the felt, Underwood enjoys one of Las Vegas’s most popular attractions: its vibrant food scene. His top pick? STK at the Cosmopolitan—a favorite stop when he’s not stacking chips at the tables.
