Johnny D has been a valuable member of the recreational gambling poker group for years. As a regular at the "ARG" events held throughout the USA, he provides an inspiration and kind face for many new players. He also supplies many laughs for the "oldies" who know him for his adept play of a T3 offsuit.

Although Johnny was once a Texan, all of us at Texas-based PokerPages regret that we lost him to the lures of beautiful Arizona. However, thanks to the Internet, we are all lucky enough to get a chance to visit and play with Johnny D in the PokerPages tournaments and live games. So when you see him online, say "Hi." We're certain you will be glad you did.
