Johnny Chan:Words Are Not Enough To Describe HimJohnny Chan-Some of you who are into playing poker would surely be knowing Johnny Chan.He is one of the well known poker players the world has ever produced.He was born in Guangzhou town of China in
1957,but presently settled in the heart of poker games at Las Vegas,Nevada.

He was moving from place to place when he was young from Hong Kong,to Arizona,then to Houston and finally to Las Vegas.At the age of 21 he decided to drop out of University of Houston and become a
professional poker player.
His early success was in the form of winning two consecutive World series of poker tournament in the year 1987 and 1988.He shot to fame after that.He has many a credit to his name.

In the year 2005,he became the very first player player to win World Series Of Poker tournament a record 10 times.Thats a amazing feat considering the high profile tournament it is.He was also able
to record his name in the Poker Hall of fame in the year 2002.

Till the year 2006 he has won $3,744,331 in world series of poker alone.Thats a record sort of thing in itself.He dreams of opening a casino one day and manage it.

Some thing notavble about him is that he carries a orange with him when he goes to play a tournament.He considers it to be a lucky charm for him.He used it as air freshener iin early days when smoking was allowed in poker rooms.

To end with we can only say that this star will always remain one and in the years to come there may be many records that he would be breaking and setting a target for others to achieve.
