Lee Davy gets you up to speed with a week that saw the poker community lose one of its founding members, Dave ‘Devilfish’ Ulliot; David Baazov debut at number one in the 2015 BLUFF Power 20; Alex Dreyfus revealing more details surrounding the Global Poker League, and much more.
We start this weeks round up with news of sadness.
Dave ‘Devilfish’ Ulliot passed away, at the age of 61, after losing his battle against bowel and liver cancer. His wife Anpaktita and his eight children survive him.
The media coverage of his passing shows what most poker insiders have known for decades. Devilfish was a true star. Very few poker players have the character to transcend poker. The knuckle-duster wearing entertainer was one of them to the very end.
