Michael Newman

The field continues to climb and we’re seeing more regular faces join the crowd of big names.

The last major series of 2017 saw SHRP regular Michael Newman capture the Rock ‘N’ Roller Poker Open Championship in November. He earned nearly $375,000 for the win over a tough final table that included Sheddy Siddiqui, Darryll Fish, Tom Marchese, Ari Engel, and Matas Cimbolas.

The win also pushed Newman to the top of the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Player of the Year standings. The POY is a race that will award a prize package worth more than $25,000 and ends after the 2018 SHRPO Championship.
