Johnny Moss is an old time poker legend. Back when players actually voted on the winner of the World Series of Poker, Moss found himself atop the leader board. Winning a World Series of Poker event is one thing, but to be voted as the best by your peers is on an entirely different level. He didn’t need to be lucky in order to earn his place in poker history, instead he let his skills do the talking.
Doyle Brunson often talks fondly of Johnny Moss, and anyone who ever played with him will talk about just how good he was. Moss’ reputation is not nearly as big as it should be in poker, but this is because he passed away before the game really exploded. He did not die a premature death, but he made sure that every minute he had was put to good use, particularly when he was sitting at a poker table. When Doyle Brunson considers you to be one of the best, you know that you have made it.
