Stated Doyle Brunson, “Steve’s record speaks for itself. Player of the year in 2009, on his way to another one this year, the kid is unbelievable.”
In 2009, Gross finished atop CardPlayer’s Online Poker Player of the Year rankings after accumulating 10,188 OPOY points thanks to over $1.2 million in qualifying winnings.
