John Hennigan

a tough guy, he can play with anyone and anywhere with his background.

This guys mad cool. i talked to him at the taj last weekend . he was playing 300-600 stud hes a great player.... good luck john

Really...he was playing that high,,,,,, I just wish that guy would pay me back that 50K he owes me......LOL

Oh yeah, he's one cool customer. Excellent reader who can mix his game up very well, I would really like to see more of his game. He is more of a cash-game player than tournament player though, correct?

his nick name was "corn flakes" because he looked like Tony the Tiger....good change..."the world"

I here he's a great player. Does anyone know why he doesnt play many tournaments..

cuz he makes triple the fukin money in ring games

how did john get the nickname "world" and what does it mean?

Supposedly because he is a well-known player all around the WORLD. Read that on Hellmuth's site, other than that I have no thought whatsoever.

they call him "world" because he has sun spots on his bald head that look like continents of the world - and that's the truth

thanks for the explanation, i thought that "the world" was the dumbest nickname i had ever heard, but that actually is a darn good reason to have that nickname.

How come this guy rarely finishes in the money, or does he not play all the tournaments...

His nickname as a pool player was "World Class" because he was that good, he shortened it to just "world" when he switched to poker, at least that's the story I heard. As for his skill at poker, it's unquestioned, the guy wins more in cash games than most players win in tourneys; only now that the prize pools are worth his time is he begining to play. My girlfriend was working at the Bellagio and saw him win over a million dollars in pots, in one night! The guy is world class.

my man john hammered me at the wsop with pocket aces over my pocket jacks. he had been raising the blinds consistently, and i thought i'd put a stop to that by raising over the top (but not wanting to see another card with overcard killers) and he calls in an instant with his bullets. He set those bullets up like the pro he is.

nobody in poker has a bigger heart than this guy.If i had to walk into the ok corral i'd want John with me.

does he play online- if so wat is his name and on what poker room

how tall is this man?

philly rules

philadelphians rock

Class act...GL World!

you're right pokrstudent. he is a class act. i really enjoy watching him. i'd like to play him a little nine ball, tho. mebbe, 1$ on the 5, $5 on the nine.

I got him back on day 3 at the WSOP. AA vs his KK. No help for Johnny World.

Great guy and a better loser.

Saw him yesterday at wpt tourney at foxwoods, he got bounced pretty early but talked to him a few times and he was an ok guy

What is that awful purple t-shirt he is wearing.

Hey Mr. Hennigan, The Smashing Pumkins called. They want their lead singer back.

Drinks at the table, the mark of a champion in my book.

i like the way he appreciates diversity, and non-conformists

A true hustler.

Hennigan is one of the top 5 players in the world.
