There were a few laughs yesterday when one player had a big hand and, when asked for his name, chuckled “You won’t believe me.” The name he gave us was familiar.
His name was Mike Sexton, the same as the Poker Hall of Famer/WPT Commentator also in today’s field, and he’s part of our Seminole family. Local Sexton is a dealer/poker room manager in the Stax Poker Lounge in Seminole Coconut Creek Casino and doing well here on Day 2 of the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown Championship.
The World Poker Tour crew set up a meeting between the two Sextons and had a chat with “our” Sexton on the break.
