He first started playing poker online in 2004 at the age of 17 and in three years he climbed up the stakes ladder to the biggest digits available online. Intro At that time Full Tilt Poker was the place for all the high-stakes poker action and Dwan became a regular at the heads-up nosebleeds. He was playing against some of the biggest names in online poker including Frederick Halling, Prahlad Friedman, Phil Ivey, Ilari Sahamies, Patrik Antonius, Brian Townsend, Viktor Blom and others.

Biography Phil Hellmuth, Jr. is an American poker player, widely regarded as one of the best poker players in history. Hellmuth has won a record 17 World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelets, including the 1989 WSOP Main Event. In 2007, he was inducted into the WSOP Hall of Fame. During his career, Hellmuth has acquired the nickname ‘The Poker Brat’ for his often expletive-filled rants about bad beats and his opponents dubious plays against him. The poker legend, considered by many to be the greatest tournament poker player ever, won his 17th bracelet at the 2023 WSOP when he took down Event #72: Super Turbo Bounty for $803,818 plus bounties. Hellmuth is a polarizing character due to his incessant trash talk, huge self-belief, and his often unorthodox playing style. However, there is no denying the Poker Brats ability; you do not win 17 WSOP bracelets without knowing your way around a poker tournament. Never one to do things by halves, Hellmuths first WSOP bracelet came in 1989 when he took down the $10,000 Main Event. The then 24-year-old Hellmuth became the youngest-ever winner of the WSOP Main Event, a record he held until Peter Eastgate (22) won in 2008. Hellmuth has since gone on to win 16 additional bracelets and is the only player in history to have won at least one WSOP bracelet in every decade from the 1980s to the 2020s.

Biography Bobby Baldwin is an American poker player. A member of the Poker Hall of Fame, inducted in 2003, Baldwin won the 1978 World Series of Poker Main Event and three other WSOP bracelets. Nicknamed the Owl, Baldwin has his first two bracelets in 1977. The following year he defeated Crandell Addington heads-up to win the WSOP Main Event. He was 28 years old and was the youngest winner in the history of the WSOP Main Event. That record was eventually broken by Stu Ungar just two years later. His fourth WSOP bracelet came in 1979 after winning the $10,000 2-7 Draw event, the same event he had won for his first bracelet two years earlier. Baldwin’s last major cash came in 2012, finishing seventh in the $1,000,000 Big One for One Drop for $1,408,000. The famed high-stakes poker room at the Bellagio is named ‘Bobby’s Room’ after Baldwin. Railbird Report: A Look Inside Bobby’s Room

Biography Kathy Liebert is an American poker player and WSOP bracelet winner. Over the course of her career, she has cashed for over $6.4 million and is second behind Vanessa Selbst in the female all-time money list. PokerNews Interview: Kathy Liebert on Hats, Massages, and the Color Purple Liebert has cashes dating back to 1994 around the United States including at Amarillo Slim’s Superbowl of Poker, California State Championship and World Series of Poker. In 1997, she finished second in a $3,000 No-Limit Hold’em event for $123,690. She finished 17th in the 1998 WSOP Main Event, repeating the feat two years later in the 2000 Main Event. In 2002, she won the Party Poker Million Cruise for $1,000,000, becoming the first woman to win a $1 million prize. In 2011, she told PokerNews that this was her biggest achievement. “If that had been a WPT event, I would have been the first woman to win a WPT event,” she told PokerNews. “That was actually Steve Lipscombs first Travel Channel poker show, so Im not sure thats the one Im most proud of but I did beat Phil Hellmuth, Chris Ferguson, and Mel Judah at the final table. So I guess in a sense that would be the biggest. In 2002, she again finished runner-up in a bracelet event for $91,700 before winning her first bracelet in 2004. She won $1,500 Limit Hold’em Shootout event for $110,180. A regular at the WSOP, Liebert has cashed 106 times for $1.4 million at the WSOP alone.
