Legend of Tournament Poker In the House

Note: This report from Tom Sexton from our reporting team, who wrote this up after chatting with his longtime friend, T.J. Cloutier.

"T.J. Cloutier has won 59th Major Poker Tournaments during his amazing career. He says they are all $500 and up buy-in touraments.

He has won Millions in tournaments, and shared many of his secrets in a series of books he has co-authored.

Many forget about the last hand of the 2000 WSOP Main Event. All the money went into the middle with T.J. holding A-Q, and Chris Ferguson holding A-9. T.J. lost when a 'Magic 9' hit the river. Had that nine not hit, poker history would be different.

Chris has been a great Champion, but he will modestly tell you that T.J. Cloutier is the longtime King of poker's tournament world."
