Throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, Ron ��The Carolina Express�� Stanley, 70, was one of the most feared players in the game. In fact, he even went toe-to-toe with the legendary Stu Ungar at the final table of the 1997 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event. It was there that Stanley donned a tuxedo while playing in the intense Las Vegas heat on Fremont Street.
Stanley, who has been playing poker for a living for ��at least 50 years,�� was recently spotted at the 2022 WSOP and was kind enough to chat with PokerNews.
��My dad used to play poker and he��d take me to the games when I was a kid,�� he said about how he learned poker in the first place. ��I was watching and it got pretty interesting. He was pretty good at it and I picked it up from him. It��s in my blood I guess.��
While he hasn��t had any major tournament scores since before the Poker Boom, Stanley is still on the grind.
��I play poker 5-6 days a week at least, mostly cash games,�� he said. ��In Vegas, I mostly play at South Point, but I��ve been in South Carolina for six months playing a lot of home games.��
