Stu Ungar is thought by many poker pros and fans to be the greatest No Limit Hold'em player of all time, with three WSOP titles on his belt. Stu Ungar started out gambling at a young age and came to Las Vegas as young, super-bright wiz-kid. Starting out by playing Gin, he entered into a main event for the No Limit Holdem Main Event and won it!
Stu Ungar has won many events after that. Being a millionaire and broke several times in his young age, Stu Ungar's taste for the fast life caught up to him. He was a highly IQ'd wiz-kid with a incredible talent but its a shame that Stu Ungars dark side is just as known as his bright side.
With drugs and alcohol taking over his life and making him almost unbearable to live with, he lost all his friends and his soul in the process.
Stu Ungar could have been the greatest player of all time, and there are many that believe that he is and was the best player to ever live. |
