Mike Sexton is unquestionably one of the most influential poker players alive today. Having enjoyed a long career as a commentator for the World Poker Tour since its inception in 2002, Sexton went on to become a Champions Club member himself in 2016. In 2017, he left the WPT to take up the role of partypoker Chairman.
Elected to the Poker Hall of Fame in 2009, ahead of the likes of Phil Ivey, Daniel Negreanu and Barry Greenstein, Sexton has amassed over $6m in lifetime earnings, a WPT title and a WSOP bracelet.
