![]() ![]() Talking to him you could say he’s figured out what lesser players haven’t, that poker is about the long term, not the immediate satisfaction of winning big. Koon is the courteous, well-spoken winner of the Super Tuesday this week, a raconteur when seated in a live event (his ‘self-defence’ tips from the PCA this year had an entire Super High Roller field rapt), but something of a pragmatist when it comes to his online day job. He’s one of what seems like a flurry of high profile winners of the Major online events of late (following Georgios Sotiropoulos and Rob Tinnion in recent weeks), who are proving that, while everyone has a shot, it takes more than wishful thinking to succeed and instead, like most things in life worth achieving, takes hard work, discipline and dedication. On this latter point Jason Koon provided some of the inspiration. They’re like flashes of brilliance that might have been dreamed up by some scriptwriter in Hollywood, but which provide the proof, if any were needed, that good players are good, and great players are great, and with good reason. You might have read something we wrote yesterday about certain moments in poker that leave you almost dumbfounded.
