Degenerate in Disguise

It took all my detective prowess to deduce that an online degenerate was among us, but with multiple viewings of Poirot in the bank, I was eventually able to identify Asthon 'theASHMAN103' Griffin, despite being initially swerved by his new shaved hairstyle.

An American version of 'BlueScouse', Griffin is rumoured to have won and lost millions, taken on some of the best players around at the highest stakes, and endured ridiculous sessions at the table. In some circles, he'd be labelled 'sick'.

Today, however, he has fierce competition for that title, as he's just sat opposite Tom Dwan, a man equally as obsessed with poker as he. But the question is: who will triumph in the battle of the degenerates? With 110,000 in front of him, Griffin could be a dark horse for making this Omaha final.
