The Australian Poker Hall of Fame was founded by Maurie Pears in 2009 to formally recognize the accomplishments of poker players and poker industry professionals from Australia and New Zealand.
Thomas James Cloutier (born October 13 1939) is a professional poker player from Albany, California. He was inducted into the Poker Hall of Fame in 2006. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Michael Richard Sexton (September 22, 1947 – September 6, 2020) was an American professional poker player and commentator. He was inducted into the Poker Hall of Fame in 2009. The undoubted highlight of the year was coming third in the Triton Million. Even though he fell short of the outright win, he still managed to pick up £20.5 million in the process. There are five players fully deserving of praise and there are hundreds more who could be mentioned. All of them deserve a place in the poker hall of fame.
Criteria for consideration:
- are current or former residents of Australia or New Zealand,
- have demonstrated outstanding and extended service to the game, bringing credit to Australian Casino Tournament Poker, and/or
- have displayed significant player excellence.
