Goodbye Mr. Sexton :( (1 Viewer)

Mike and I played next to each other at a WPT event in Europe, and he was a fountain of funny anecdotes and obscure knowledge. Affable, charming, ironic and funny all rolled into one. We remained friends, and I am so sad he is gone. He will be sorely missed.

And Mike, if you’re wondering, they ended up being fake. Go figure.
 
THE Ambassador of Poker, the game wouldn't be the same without him.
 
'Bingo, Bango, Bongo!' We'll miss you Mike. :(

Anyone interested, there's a great PokerNews Podcast tribute with lots of people who were close to Mike (Linda J, Jan F, VVP, etc etc).
I'll be honest, I got a little choked up a few times...
 
I never met him but have so many great memories. Old school chipboard tourney’s on pokerstars for real money on Wednesday nights with WPT going on In the background. Home games with replay’s of WPT events going. Mancation... same thing. Even playing at Fortune was better with WPT on one of the TV’s.

Like I said, never met the guy but this news saddened me when I heard it.
 
I always enjoyed his commentary, and always regarded him as a true legend of the game....he will be missed..
