Intriguing the InfoPowa staff over the weekend was a report which appeared in online media announcing a big win for what it described as a “South Australian pub league poker player” on the 888.com poker website.
Player Anh-Tuan “…hit 888poker’s largest Royal Jackpot in history at over $190,000 playing on a $1/$2 No-Limit Hold’em table, (where) he hit the Royal Flush of Spades,” one report noted.
The intriguing bit comes in on the punter’s name. On checking the veracity of the story it appears from the Linked-In website that one Anh-Tuan is, or perhaps was, a poker tournament director based in Adelaide, Australia at 888 poker!

Tampa Bay finished with a dismal 3-13 record last season (1-5 in the NFC South). Head coach Raheem Morris is in his second year with the team, and needs to post a better record if he expects to be retained by owner/president Malcom Glazer.
