The poker world received the sad news on Wednesday that Kurt McPhail, a long-time member of the World Poker Tour (WPT) family who founded the WPT League back in 2007 and more recently operated the WPT at Sea Poker Room on Virgin Voyages, passed away unexpectedly.

McPhail, who lived in Mulvane, Kansas but was just as likely to be sailing the high seas over the past year, studied at Fort Hays State University and has been married to Kathy McPhail since November 11, 1998.

The WPT released the following statement on social media:

“RIP Kurt. You gave me some of my best experiences in life. I know you’re enjoying your eternal cruise, save a spot for all of us. Love you man,” Tommy Stokes wrote on social media.

Likewise, PokerNewsPR & Media Manager Chad Holloway offered the following:

“I had the privilege of getting to know Kurt over the past year and am profoundly saddened to learn of his passing. Last October, I had the opportunity to check out the WPT at Sea Poker Room on Virgin Voyages, and to say Kurt was an excellent host would be an understatement. He was extremely kind, generous, and focused on making sure everyone who stepped foot in the poker room had a great time. He was also a driving force behind the recent WPT Voyage and I know just how highly he was regarded by those with whom he worked. He had a passion for poker and the community most definitely lost a good one."

PokerNewsoffers its condolences to the friends and family of Kurt McPhail, who the entire poker community will sorely miss.

PREVIOUS:The goal is simple: players must minimize the number of points in their hands when another player goes out while forming valid sets and runs. A run is made up of three or more consecutive cards of the same suit, whereas a set is made up of three or four cards of the same rank but different suits. A draw pile is created from the remaining cards after players are dealt a predetermined number of cards at the start of each round, typically seven or ten. Each player takes turns selecting a card from the discard or draw pile, after which they discard one card from their hand. The round is over when one player successfully melds all of their cards into sets and runs that are valid. NEXT:Gamers may face increasingly complex opponents as a result of artificial intelligence (AI) being incorporated into gaming platforms, which would improve the experience overall. Also, while retaining the ease of digital formats, developments in virtual reality (VR) have the potential to completely transform how players interact with card games like rummy by producing immersive environments that mimic the social aspects of traditional play. Also, we can anticipate more collaborative features in Rummy Modern platforms as online gaming communities expand. This could involve cooperative challenges or team-based game modes that motivate players to cooperate in order to accomplish shared objectives. These developments will probably draw even more players to the game and encourage a sense of community among fans.
