$150 NLH $50,000 GTD (Flight 1A): Not Traveling The Tournament Streets, But "Raising The Nuts" Stream Host Trevor Savage Stops By The Room

$150 No Limit Hold'em
$50,000 GTD
Level 4 (Blinds 200/300/300)
Total Flight 1A Entries: 45

Trevor Savage has seen his kids become "famous" in the poker world, especially his youngest Andrew, who has played the role of numerous different notable poker players (Doug Polk for example).

For those that just follow this particular blog, or the current affairs of South Florida poker, the name Trevor "@TreMomey" Savage may not ring a bell.  If you are in that select group that doesn't know who he is, use this as "one time" suggestion to check him out.  Savage, who hails from New Jersey, used to frequent the poker room at Parx Casino (in Bensalem, PA).  He actually happened to win the first tournament that I personally covered as a blogger (Event #1 of the 2011 Parx Open Classic, which was a $500 No Limit Hold'em event).  The $18,292 result stands as his seventh largest cash, on a resume that boasts over $484,000 in live earnings.  

Trevor also has a lot of online earnings, which is a platform that has recently given him some incredible opportunities.  Once online poker cam back to the state of New Jersey, Savage put almost all of his focus towards the online grind, and began streaming his play.  Outside of his #NeverFold (cash game) escapades (in which he doesn't fold a hand down unless there is a three-bet in front of him), Savage recently starting his "Raising The Nuts" channel on YouTube.  Originally part of the Vlogger In Paradise contest, Trevor's videos (which feature his three children) became an immediate hit in the poker world.  While he didn't win a Platinum Pass into the PCA Player's Championship, he was invited down as part of the top five in the contest, and was featured (with his family) on PokerNews:


Trevor isn't playing in the tournament this weekend, but did make time in his schedule to stop by the poker room to play some 5/10 No Limit Hold'em.
