Players[edit]
Articles that don't exist yet, but should probably be added:
Most notable:
- Robert Turner (chip burner), instrumental in poker development & spread
- Jennifer Harman google hits, top womans player
- Russ "Dutch" Boyd, head of The Crew
- The Crew and The Hendon Mob
- Mayfair Club - famous gaming club in NYC
Less notable: - These players probably won't get articles until they do something notable such as winning the WSOP, getting inducted into a hall of fame, winning enough money to make them one of the all time highest winning poker players of all time, or it can be shown that they had some instrumental part in poker history (or something else). Some of these players are very visible, and may be regarded as some of the best in the world. Those players here in the Hall of Fame do not have articles because of a lack of information about them.
