Who is poker’s greatest enigma? Viktor ‘Isildur1’ Blom might have had a legitimate claim to that title before his cover was blown live at the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure. Phil Ivey’s mystique is timeless and while the high roller set count him as one of their own it’s said that very few ever get close to truly knowing the man with 10 WSOP bracelets. Dan ‘Jungleman’ Cates, however, might just be one on his own in the poker world. Is he, however, about to leave poker behind?

No-one really knows much of what goes through Jungleman’s mind most of the time, but that isn’t usually a problem. Poker fans normally just want to see ‘Jungle’ in his element, in a high roller cash game or nosebleed-entry tournament.

Recent events have changed that popular opinion a lot.

Last week, Jungleman was accused by playing in a high stakes poker game against players including but not limited to Bill Perkins. When Perkins blew the whistle, the accusation was clear: Jungleman had used another players account to beat Perkins under a false name.
