Poker is a card game that has always been associated with risk, adrenaline and skillful tactics. In light of the pandemic, poker has even become one of the most popular online casino games ever. Of course, there are also other card games such as Blackjack, slot machines, Book Of Dead, Starburst and the well-known table games such as roulette in all its variations. Since casinos now only function with strict restrictions, many gamers prefer online versions. In addition, more and more online casinos are offering a no deposit bonus for a successful start. There are many who have long been considered professionals in playing poker. They have achieved a lot with the help of poker. In this article we would like to discuss the 5 most successful poker players who are other than car lovers.
The players with the most conspicuous vehicles are:
- Patrick Antony
- Phil Ivey
- Dario Minieri
- Vanessa Rousso
- Daniel Negreanu
Patrick Antonius: Aston Martin Vanquish
Patrik Antonius is a former Finnish professional tennis player who now also works as a model. He's one of the 50 best poker players of all time and has earned $ 12 million in live tournaments with his cards. His greatest success so far is winning the main event of the European Poker Tour in October 2005. Antonius, who comes from Helsinki, now lives in Monte Carlo and enjoys the Mediterranean Sea and the milder climate.
For this he also needs the right vehicle. With the Aston Martin Vanquish, he has chosen a classy sports car for himself, with which he continues the James Bond traditions. The car was manufactured, mostly by hand, from 2001 to 2007 and comes from the UK itself. The car costs around € 300.000 and has a top speed of 325 km / h. A cool vehicle for the cool Finn, who is also known as "The Terminator" in the poker scene.
Phil Ivey: Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren
Phil Ivey is for sure one of the best poker players in the world. His total net worth is around $ 32 million. At the World Series of Poker he was the poker bracelet winner ten times and he also won the World Poker Tour once. Ivey is from New Jersey, USA, and was involved in a scandal in 2012 when he won $ 10 million at "Punto Banco Baccarat" in Atlantic City, which he then had to repay after a fraud litigation.
Often referred to as the best poker player in the world, Ivey drives a Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, which was produced in the UK between 2003 and 2009. It is a super sports car that comes up with a price of around € 500.000. The car reaches a top speed of 334 km / h and allows Ivey to drive up to the upcoming poker tournaments as befits his standing.
Dario Minieri: Porsche Cayman
When it comes to famous poker players, the name Dario Minieri cannot be missing. Minieri comes from Rome and has the eloquent poker nickname Supernova. He started playing poker at the age of 18 and was quickly able to add himself to the list of well-known poker players. Minieri has now made $ 2008 million in live poker tournaments. His biggest achievement was winning a bracelet at the World Series of Poker in XNUMX for half a million dollars in prize money.
Classic Minieri opted for a Porsche Cayman. The car was built between 2005 and 2013 in Uusikaupunki (Finland) by Valmet Automotive on behalf of Porsche and offers car enthusiasts a classic design. At around € 60.000, the Cayman is one of the cheaper sports cars. It reaches a top speed of 265 km / h, which is obviously enough for the professional poker player.
Vanessa Rousso: Bentley GT
Not many stars of the scene can call themselves the best poker player, but Vanessa Rousso is certainly the best poker player. She comes from the US state of New York and started playing poker at the tender age of five. She has not yet won a title in the major tournaments, but is consistently in the money and has already earned 3,5 million US dollars.
Unlike German poker players, Rousso opted for a Bentley GT as the transport vehicle, choosing the classic British brand with a monumental design. Between 2003 and 2011 the car was manufactured in Great Britain for Volkswagen. So, unlike her male colleagues, Rousso opted for a purely luxury car. It reaches a top speed of 318 km / h and costs a good € 210.000.
Daniel NegreanuTesla S Series
Daniel Negreanu from Toronto, Canada is perhaps the richest poker player in the world and has already made over $ 44 million. He won six World Series of Poker bracelets and twice the World Poker Tour Main Event. In total, he was at the top of the poker world rankings for 19 weeks.
Negreanu has chosen a Tesla Model S, deviating from the style of his male poker colleagues, who generally prefer sports cars. The Model S is a luxury sedan that is battery-electric and is therefore future-oriented. Maybe Negreanu is ahead again here compared to his colleagues. The car is made in the USA and comes with a price of €100.000. Depending on the driving conditions, it can reach 250 to 320 km/h and is actually in no way inferior to the petrol engines.
Conclusion
The poker players on the international scene have already earned their merits and are role models for poker players in Germany. To perhaps achieve a similar career, simply start playing free slot games or online poker now and develop your skills. Soon you might be playing for big money on a big tour.
