Mike Sexton - A Tribute to One of Poker's Greatest

Sexton once told PokerNews that he "made poker my life" and there's certainly no other way to describe the decades he spent in the industry. He filled a variety of roles in and around the game, touching countless lives with his gregarious personality, ready humor and instantly recognizable voice.

His trademark sign-off from the WPT broadcasts will ring familiar in the ears of poker fans everywhere and remain his signature quote:

"May all of your cards be live and may all of your pots be monsters."

Sexton made people fall in love with the game, and everyone in the game loved Mike Sexton. Sexton is and always will be one of poker's greatest ambassadors.

This video is a compilation of some of our favorite moments with
Sexton on PokerNews.

RIP Mike Sexton
