The World Series of Poker Europe is nothing but a blip in our memory after Jack Sinclair beats Laszlo Bujtas, heads-up, to take the €1.2m first prize in the €10,350 Main Event. 

Jack Sinclair is human.

I know this because, when I asked Espen Uhlen Jørstad who he would surround himself with if he could only pick five people, the name of Sinclair came up in conversation.

“It would have to be someone funny, like Jack Sinclair,” said the Unibet Ambassador before continuing, “I loved watching him win it. He’s a better poker player than me, but he’s human.”
