A top notch and reliable poker player Johnny has won 10 WSOP bracelets and in then hit a winning double by taking both the 1987 and ’88 World Series main events he was however stopped from making it a treble when in 1989 he was beaten by Phil Hellmuth.
His nickname is The Orient Express.
He was in the film Rounders so he is often recognized and at the table can be very intimidating.
He’s known also for always having an orange with him at the table, which he originally started doing when smoking was still allowed during the big tournaments. He’d keep the orange so he could have a breath of citrus-fresh air to clear his mind.
