POKER INFO - PROILE - Stu Ungar

The first time I ever came across Stuey was when reading the Championship Table book by McEvoy, Smith, & Wheeler. For some reason, when viewing his pictures, I felt there was a mysterious and yet mesmerizing presence about him. I could just sense this sort of genius quality from his aura, even though I knew absolutely nothing about him!! After learning more about him two years after I have first found out about him I have truly come to appreciate the brilliance and magnanimity that he brought to the game of cards and life in general. I hope that through this site, the book "One of a Kind", the upcoming ACCURATE movie, and most importantly, through his beloved daughther and wife, that people will be able to come to appreciate the phenomenal qualities that Stu Ungar used to carve his name into a legend. May you rest in piece Stuey.
