Calling the Clock: Tsang on Tsoukernik; Hellmuth on WPT; Bolt on Zoom

Another round up of news from the world of poker including One Drop winner, Elton Tsang, with some bold claims, Phil Hellmuth on the Raw Deal, and Usain Bolt on PokerStars Zoom games.

When Guy Laliberte decided to ban professional poker players from competing in the 2016 $1m buy-in One Drop event, it was recognised, almost universally, as a bad move.

The winner, Elton Tsang, banked €11,111,111, and all seemed fair in love and war. Tsang was not a familiar name within media circles. One assumed he was a mega rich businessman, playing in $1m buy-in tournaments for fun, using the winnings to prevent doomsday pathogens, cure malnutrition, or create robot mosquitos to kill their brethren and cure malaria.

But that would be an incorrect assumption.
