The November issue of Bluff Europe magazine hits UK newsstands and card rooms today, with cover star, Tony ‘G’ Guoga, giving readers an insight into his difficult upbringing. The poker star gives a frank and open interview talking about his tough childhood in Lithuania, immigrating to Australia and taking up the beautiful game before setting the poker world alight. He also comes clean on his notorious table talk and seeks to dispel the myths about his ‘nasty’ image. Elsewhere, Bluff runs down the Greatest Poker Feuds of All Time, including the highly public Jamie Gold vs. Crispin Leyser ‘tête-à-tête’ at the 2006 WSOP, Wild Bill Hickok’s memorable showdown and the WPT’s spat with some of the world’s top poker players. “It’s great to have a character like Tony G as this month’s cover,” said Bluff Europe Editor-in-Chief Michael Caselli. “He has become a legend among poker fans and players and, our interview shows that there is more than meets the eye where Tony G is concerned.” Also making a welcome appearance is the author of arguably the best and most comprehensive guide to Hold’em poker, Dan Harrington, who gives us the low-down on life within the beautiful game. There are also reports from the Pokerstars.com EPT London, plus regular columns from Paul ‘Action’ Jackson, Jennifer Tilly and Phil Laak.
