    Default Blind poker player signs endorsement deal with Full Tilt

    Hal Lubarsky, a blind man who famously played deep into the WSOP Main Event in 2007, has signed an endorsement deal with Full Tult Poker.

    There is no mention in the story as to how Lubarsky would play on Full Tilt ... one would assume that he would have the aid of a person who could tell him the action, much like he did at the WSOP.

    Here's a story from Gambling911 explaining how Hal plays ... in fact, he's able to play 6-8 tables at a time!
