Chris
Ferguson, Seat 4
PartyPoker Million Final Table - March 2002
Chris "Jesus" Ferguson is from Pacific Palisades, California.
I needn't tell you how he got the nickname, just take a look at
him! Chris is 38 years old, one of the nicest and most popular players
on the circuit and considers himself a student when I asked him
his occupation. He bought into the event for $8,000 and came to
the final table with lots of chips. He has played poker for only
eight years and loves to swing dance where he is an accomplished
competitor. His best dance, of course, is with his longtime girlfriend
Cathy Burns. He has one "child", a puppy named Cami who
is 12.
His
major tournament victories include three WSOP bracelets: one for
the 2000 $2500 buy-in seven-card stud event, another for the 2001
$1500 Omaha 8/B contest, and the coup de grace, the 2000 WSOP world
championship no limit hold'em event where he won a million bucks!
His favorite game is no limit hold'em, of course, and his favorite
place to play? "At the final table." When asked for his
thoughts on the PartyPoker Million he said that "it is fun
for everyone."
