Kenny
"Skyhawk" Flaton, Seat 1 
Kenny "Skyhawk" Flaton is from Henderson, Nevada, a suburb
of Las Vegas. , Kenny, 61, has made his living playing poker for
more than 27 years. He got his nickname "Skyhawk" many
years ago when his peers deemed him able to "swoop" down
into a game and take away the chips. Kenny has a lovely wife, Crystal,
and son, Aaron, who are the lights of his life. He enjoys traveling
with them both, but unfortunately neither was able to make this
trip. Skyhawk started the day with the smallest stack at $19,500
and was the second one ousted to finish in eighth place. The most
money he has ever won was $500,000 when he won the US Open at the
Taj Mahal in Atlantic City, NJ a few years ago. He also has one
WSOP bracelet. His favorite game is seven-card stud 8/B and when
asked where his favorite place to play is he quipped "wherever
I win!" His comment on the Party Poker Million: "Super." Next photo | Return to Gallery Photo © 2002, Jan Fisher |
