Apolo Anton Ohno Plays Poker and Roulette, is a ‘Hustler’, Baby

ohno pokerIt might not have the stakes of NBA team gambling, but the US Men’s Speed Skating team must have some pretty excellent cash games between winning medals.

We previously reported the JR Celski is an online poker player, and after a recent Twitter update, highly decorated skater Apolo Anton Ohno loves to hit the felts as well.

As per the image, Ohno answered a fan’s question (@ApoloOhno Do you have a hidden talent that would shock/amaze people? :) ) with the following tweet:

I’m a hustler on the poker table and roulette calls my name lol!

While it might not exactly be NEWS to report that someone plays poker, it would be news to hear about some of the poker games that are definitely going down at the Athletes Village in Vancouver. Is Ohno actually a hustler? Is there a craps table beside the ping pong? Has anyone ever lost their medal in a game? I’VE GOTTA KNOW.

If any Olympic athletes are reading this, let me know about what goes down and I’ll totally hook you up with coupons for tournaments.
