Remembering Eastern Poker Open Champion Jordan Fishman
Level 2
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
The poker world received sad news in October upon learning that Jordan Fishman passed away two days after suffering an unexpected cardiac event.
Fishman was a retired professor who hailed from Southborough, Massachusetts, and captured the Eastern Poker Open $1,650 High Roller last spring in Milford.
Fishman was cheered on by his girlfriend, Linda Swears, whom he met on the Eastern Poker Tour.
Swears shared with PokerNews: “He was my deepest love and my home. It’s hard to think of life without him in it, but we had two and a half amazing years together. I will be forever grateful for the love we had. I never doubted his love for me for a moment after our first date.”
