    I never met Mike, but about 12 years ago a friend of mine bought a house and after the deal closed he realized he was buying Mike's old house. My friend beamed about it and for years he would talk about how cool Mike was when they met. That was the kind of positive effect Mike Sexton had on people. He was great for the game of poker and great to the people around him. He'll be missed.

    Damn. Tough way to go. My favorite uncle the same way, A never go to the doctor type. When he was diagnosed he was gone within a month.

    Have all your routine checkups and procedures men. Nothing more important than your health.

    I would think he didn’t go to the doctor as far as getting that prostate test every year this could’ve been prevented that’s frustrating
