Hoyt Corkins Topping “Player of the Year”

March 4, 2010

hoytcorkinsThe US poker player Hoyt Corkins is currently topping the Bluff Magazine “Player of the Year” list two months into this year. Corkins got of to a really good start in 2010. First he won the WPT Southern Poker Championships and then he finished second in the high roller event at the NAPT Venetian last week.
