Born on August 17, 1944, Buckenmayer will turn 81 years old later this year.
An established player with impressive career earnings, Buckenmayer has cashed the WSOP Main Event five times, including this year.
Those five cashes also include two deep runs:

A third deep run is still on the cards as Buckenmayer is still in with a stack of 195,000.
