Stout Student to Appear on Reality Poker Show

Mike Paulus |

Caught this over on Stout Media’s (terrific) website: Stout student Tony Wind (originally from St. Paul) will be appearing on Ultimate Bet’s Best Damn Poker Show on February 2. On his audition tape, Wind impersonated totally timely characters like Ace Ventura, Pee-Wee Herman, Macaulay Culkin, and Michael Jackson – all playing a hand of texas hold’em. From Stout Media:

  • “I figured there would be some stiff competition,” says Wind. ”So I knew I had to make my audition stand out and came up with the Neverland Ranch Poker Invitational.”   
  •  … As expected, Wind reiceved an invite for an all expense paid trip to California and ended up missing a few classes at the beginning of last semester.  During his experience, Wind met many poker pros and players.
