Legendary rock, metal and punk producer Steve Albini just won his second World Series of Poker tournament.
He nabbed his first in 2018. This time, Albini took down a $1,500 H.O.R.S.E event for $196,089 on Saturday.
H.O.R.S.E. is a multi-game poker challenge combining Texas Hold ‘Em and other variants of the card game where players wager over whose hand is best.
Albini is not a professional poker player. The game is only his hobby, but obviously one he is highly skilled at. At this tournament he overcame a field of almost 800 other players, including many pros.
Gambeling is in his blood. When he was working on “In Utero” he bet the band $100,000 on a game of pool.
Albini is best none for producing Nirvana’s “In Utero” album, he has also worked with The Pixies, PJ Harvey, The Breeders, Plant & Page just to name a few.
What other skills do you have that people maybe surprised to discover?
