Bobby Baldwin Profile

If you're going to be a casino bigwig, not to mention a professional poker player, then your hometown better be Vegas, baby.  Las Vegas is indeed the headquarters for “The Owl,” Bobby Baldwin. A 4-time bracelet winner at the World Series of Poker, Bobby was the youngest ever to win the World Series of poker Main event when he took the victory in 1978.  Of course, his status was usurped by Stu Unger in 1980, and then again by Phil Hellmuth in 1989.  By then he was running the Mirage casino, and probably didn't take the news to badly.

Bobby is known not only as a championship level poker player and a big fish in the Vegas sea, but has also written a great deal about the poker world.
