Million Dollar Game - Free to Enter

Sponsored pro from the Betfair site. Made his breathtough 2 years ago when he finished 2nd to Annette Obrestad at the WSOPE £10k buy in event.
Honed his skills at the Vic in London and learnt to mix it up in Cash games playing against seasoned players like Neil Channing and the regular 'sharks' at the Vic. His bankroll took some battering in the early days but this didnt deter John in becoming one of the most feared tournaments players. He is quite capable of pushing all in with nothing if he senses weakness in his opponent. Only weakness is getting trapped by some of the wily players who know how aggressive he can be.
