WSOP Main Event Champ believes in Crypto currency

in #spl6 years ago

John Cynn (pronounced - sin) winner of the 2018 WSOP Main event won $8.8 million dollars. After taxes he will get to keep about $4.9 million of it. Do wonder how much of that will go into crypto? One of his sponsors was Blockfolio. They got an app that users can track crypto investments. He seems to be one who is very deliberate and studied about financial moves. Hard to believe I am talking about a person that makes his living playing poker. Anyway, if he follows contemporary crypto investing advise I had see on many posts here then maybe $490,000 find its way into exchanges.

As a poker player I always look forward to who the next champ will be. They kind of get an unofficial shot at being a poker ambassador. The great ones are few and far between. John seems to be a quiet and humble kind of guy that has just worked hard to play the game well. He freely admits that when he started out he was the fish at the table just giving away his chips. He got a coach and worked the game to earn his shot at champ. Holding out hope he will be a good poker and crypto ambassador.

Anyway, it would be cool if a newly minted poker millionaire was to make some crypto moves that turned him into a crypto billionaire in 5-10 years time.

Writing about poker and crypto just wouldn't be right to not mention the Steem Poker league @spl that plays online at lucksacks.com. Play poker for free and win some sbd.
