September 14th, 2006[普克高手]中国牌王Johnny Chan陈强尼
陈强你。真的强过你,
陈强尼,一个生于广东的华人,做为美国的顶尖普克高手之一,在美国普克界和普通大众中,有着独特的地位。
他是世界普克系列赛WSOP1978-1988两届的蝉联冠军。这已经是无人能出其右了。
而且,他是第一个普克电影明星—美国电影描写的职业普克手。电影“Rounders”<中译赌王之王>中的一个高潮情节即以他的1988年WSOP中决赛桌上的决胜局过程为蓝本所写。他诱使对方ALL-IN,最终蝉联桂冠。这个电影使他在美家喻户晓,成为一个传奇人物。许多美国年轻人能叫上来名字的普克手就是这位广东人。
他68年赴美,家里在休斯顿开个餐馆。后进入休大,21时辍学去拉斯维加斯,开始自已的职业普克生涯。
2006年,陈强你在刚结束的WSOP中,取得第十一名,总赢额超过400万。
Johnny Chan was born in Canton, China, moved to the U.S. in 1968. His family owned restaurants in Houston, TX, where he attended classes at the University of Houston. Chan dropped out at the age of 21 to move to Las Vegas and become a professional poker player.
After winning the main event of the World Series of Poker in two consecutive years - 1987 and 1988 - Chan became an immediate legend. The final hand of the 1988 WSOP was featured in the film, Rounders. Chan flopped the nut straight versus Erik Seidel, but slow-played the hand, trapping Seidel into a futile all-in bluff on the river. Chan called, taking down his second title.
At present Chan is tied with Doyle Brunson for the WSOP bracelet record, taking his 10th in the 2006 WSOP. Frequently seen playing in some of the highest-stakes cash games in the world, Johnny Chan lives in Las Vegas.
另一篇文章这样写他:
Johnny Chan is used to being first. The winner of back-to-back World Championships in 1987 and 1988, Johnny is also first in money won all-time at the World Series of Poker.
He’’s also the first poker-playing movie star.
It was Chan (shown repeatedly on videotape trapping Erik Seidel to win his first championship) that Matt Damon idolized in the movie ‘’Rounders'’. To many younger Americans, Johnny Chan may be the only poker player they would be able to name.
It may come as a surprise to some that Johnny Chan isn'’t already in the Poker Hall of Fame. It’’s not an oversight. It’’s because Johnny is still so young. Not yet 50 years old, Chan had unusual success very early. Always known as one of the finest No-Limit Hold'’em players who ever lived, Johnny Chan qualifies easily for Hall of Fame membership because Johnny has always taken on all comers. Chan has played in the biggest games going for the last quarter century. Nicknamed by the pundits as "The Great Wall of China" and "The Orient Express" Johnny Chan is also one of the most approachable and well-liked of former World Champions.
In this year’’s World Series of Poker, Chan won his 7th bracelet to leave him only one behind the legends Johnny Moss and Doyle Brunson. Oh, and fittingly, the great Johnny Chan is the first Asian-American in the Poker Hall of Fame.
Johnny Chan is truly first among equals.
Lyle Berman, fellow Hall of Fame 2002 Inductee, introduced Johnny before the start of the Championship Event. He reminded the audience that Chan started playing poker at the $2/$4 level. He cautioned all players that if they couldn’t beat that game, they wouldn’t be able to beat $10/$20 and above. So don'’t ask him for a stake.
Johnny thanked Lyle for the introduction and the Hall of Fame for the "honor" Then he told the dealers, "Shuffle up and deal."

标题:Johnny Chan and fans

标题:这样的牌场英豪,长期不为国内所知,是中国不进步的主要原因
September 15th, 2006 at 8:35 am
标题:在电视里见过
人看起来一般. 不像发哥那么派, 最后好象是得了第三或第四吧. 不过这哥们经常在各大online poker 上 发出\" Johnny Chan Challenge championship…\" 来吸引人来挑战…..
September 15th, 2006 at 9:12 am
标题:那当然,不过发哥是电影虚构出来的,真能上牌场打的,陈是第一人吧?
September 15th, 2006 at 12:45 pm
标题:我也是看了Rounders才知道Johnny Chan的
本来还以为那只是个虚构的人物,回家一查才知道是我们华人的英雄。不过别说中国大陆没怎么宣传他,即使是美国的华人社区也好象刻意对他保持低调,可能是因为他的职业毕竟是个赌徒吧。
Rounders这部电影对玩扑克的普罗大众影响很大的,现在网上玩扑克的很多老美一上来就取个ID叫worm,就是电影里头Edward Norton的外号。

标题:yeah. He is kind of the first one who has a Chinese last
name.
no bad….
