In addition to hosting the World Poker Tour, Mike Sexton (pictured) started regularly playing in open buy-in events on the tour during Season IX. Since then he has cashed 13 times and appeared at three of the final tables that he usually announces the action for on television. Raw Deal host Tony Dunst and Phil Hellmuth filled in for commentating duties the three times he made final tables.
Sexton took sixth place at the Bay 101 Shooting Star Main Event final table during Season IX, good for $148,000; and he took third place at the WPT Venice Grand Prix final table during Season XI, good for $69,723. His third final table was one of the most exciting in WPT history. Sexton pulled off an impressive comeback during heads-up play at the patypoker WPT Montreal Main Event during Season XV to win his first WPT title and $317,896 in prize money.
Sexton’s 13 cashes rank 64th all-time, and he has $667,687 in career WPT earnings. Not bad for someone who only played in WPT Invitational events before Season IX. Sexton is also on a rush to start Day 2 at the WPT L.A. Poker Classic. He began today with 53,300 and has run that up to 110,000.
