Legendary Billy Baxter on Beating IRS, Betting NFL Halftimes, and His WSOP Run

Billy Baxter is a two-time Hall of Famer. Back in 2006, he was inducted into the Poker Hall of Fame alongside T.J. Cloutier, and more recently in August of this year he was one of ten inductees into the inaugural class of the Sports Gambling Hall of Fame at Circa Resort & Casino.

If you’ve been involved in either industry, Baxter is a legendary name, not only because of what he’s accomplished in his own career that’s spanned more than 50 years but also for what he’s achieved for players across the county.
