John Cynn

We get our fair share of poker champions in the field and today we have the latest to win the top honor in poker.

John Cynn is in today’s flight and the last tournament he won happened to be the 2018 World Series of Poker Main Event. He outlasted the second biggest field in WSOP Main Event history to walk away with $8,800,000 and a massive piece of jewelry.

We expect to see other WSOP Main Event champ before the day is though. Joe McKeehen has been here for most of the series and Scott Blumstein showed up a few days ago. Jonathan Duhamel pops in from time to time and Carlos “The Matador” Mortensen, Greg Merson, and Ryan Riess should be here at some point.
