Mike Sexton Elected to Poker Hall of Fame

A special congrats goes out to Mike Sexton for making it into the Hall of Fame. For me - he was my first VOICE of poker and has recently been doing really well on the tournament circuit. It's always tough to pick who gets into any hall of fame - but in our minds he deserves it for all the contributions he's made to the game.

Long recognized as one of the good guys of poker, World Series of Poker bracelet winner and World Poker Tour announcer Mike Sexton received a big salute from some of his peers today.

Harrah's and the WSOP announced that Sexton has been elected to the Poker Hall of the Fame. He's only player of the nine finalists -- which included Grand Rapids native and 1983 WSOP main event champion Tom McEvoy -- who will be inducted this year.
