Dave 'Devilfish' Ulliott perd sa bataille face au cancer
Dave 'Devilfish' Ulliott s'est éteint à l'âge de 61 ans a annoncé un de ses fils sur le compte Twitter de son père dans la journée de lundi.
Vainqueur d'un bracelet WSOP et d'un bracelet WPT, DevilFish a marqué le poker moderne en participant aux premières émissions de télévision, notamment Late Night Poker en 1999. Personnage haut en couleur, il laisse derrière lui sa femme Anpaktita et huit enfants : Chris, David, Kerry, Lucy, Matthew, Mike, Paul et Steven.
Dave Ulliott a gagné 6 218 293 dollars en tournois lors de sa carrière. Une carrière remplie de moments inoubliables. Grand amateur de belles histoires, le joueur avait compilé ses anecdotes dans une autobiographie qui perpétuera sa mémoire chez les passionnés de poker. DevilFish ne devrait pas tarder à entrer au Hall Of Fame...
Unfortunately Dad, Dave 'Devilfish' Ulliott lost his battle with cancer today and died peacefully surrounded by his loved ones. xxx

I was expecting Devilfish to pass, but not as quickly. He sent me 3 Direct Messages on twitter just days ago.#RIPpokerhalloffame?
