Hi!
Recently, the jury of the poker hall of fame in the United States chose from 10 candidates the two most worthy to get into this Room in 2018. Unfortunately for many, not for the first time missed Mike Matusow, Chris Moneymaker. The majority of poker media representatives and people who have already entered the Hall in the past years gave their votes for John Hennigan and Mori Eskandani.
John Hennigan.
Known by the nickname "Johnny World". He started his career as a betting player. From there went and nickname-because of John's willingness to put on any event happening in the world. Then his competitive nature, Hennigan sent to the poker. A special aggressive style of play opened the door to him on various poker shows. In 2007, John even starred in the episode of " Lucky»:
Despite the fact that the player is 47 years old, twenty of which were devoted to poker, Hennigan continues to show excellent results. At WSOP 2018, he won prizes at 13 events, four finals and a $10,000 H. O. R. S. E. (Event #27) win. In total, he has 5 bracelets and more than $ 8 million in winnings.
Mori Eskandani
Eskandani devoted a lot of time to playing live tournaments and earned about 600 thousand dollars in them. But I got into the poker hall of fame not because of game achievements. His main merit for poker was the development of shows and broadcasts. Everyone now known High Stakes Poker and Poker After Dark would not see the light without the efforts of Mori.
An American of Iranian origin has been producing and promoting poker on television for almost forty years. Almost all the chips of poker broadcasts, which we think is familiar, were invented or introduced to them. We can say that the entire industry of TV poker in the United States owes its development Maury Eskandani.
Good luck to all over the monitor and in life!
