Poker Expert Cashes In On Texas
Hold 'em Craze
Body:
As co-host of Bravo’s widely popular “Celebrity Poker
Showdown,” Phil Gordon knows you can’t escape the
Texas
hold ’em craze unless you live under a rock.
“It’s the only poker
game that’s really shown much on television,”
the 35-year-old world-class poker player says. “It’s
the game that we’ve played in the world championship since
the early ’70s. It’s the game that’s shown on
the ‘World Poker Tour’ on the Travel Channel, ESPN’s
‘World Series of Poker’. It’s the most compelling,
fast-paced, intense poker game out there.”
Gordon, who has won more than $1 million in tournaments, compares
the trend to the early days of the Internet.
