He is considered by many as the best NFL sports betting tournament player in the world – but what is Steve Fezzik’s net worth?

He remains the only person to have won the Las Vegas Hilton SuperContest twice, in back-to-back seasons.

A Chess Candidate Master, Fezzik was also a Fellow in the Society of Actuaries.
