Jennifer Harman ima več kot $2.7 milijona turnirskih zaslužkov, ki vključujejo 6 World Poker Tour in 12 WSOP finalnih miz ter dva naslova. Jennifer je priznana high-stakes cash game igralka, ki se redno udeležuje najmočnejših iger v Las Vegasu.
"I have been nominated many times and have not gotten in. I have never felt bad about it. The people who are in, deserve to be in," je dejala Jennifer. "The list is always full of people deserving to be in the Poker Hall of Fame. To finally make it, has made me extremely happy. It means I have the support of my peers and people around me. They feel that I am good enough to be in the Poker Hall of Fame, and that's a pat on the back." Več o njenih vtisih si lahko preberete v intervjuju.
John Juanda je eden najbolj izpopolnjenih turnirskih igralcev v zgodovini igre. Indonezijski poker pro ima več kot $16.5 millijona zaslužkov na turnirjih. V svoj rezime šteje čez 30 naslovov. Na World Series of Poker si je priboril pet zapestnic, med drugimi je leta 2008 postal tudi WSOPE main event šampion. Pred nekaj tedni je Juanda k svojim zmagam dodal še zahtevni European Poker Tour Barcelona.
"I appreciate the recognition," je povedal John. "It's an honor to see my name among so many players I have admired and respected throughout my career: Chip Reese, Erik Seidel, Dan Harrington, Daniel Negreanu. Thank you to all the fans who nominated me and to the HOF and media members who voted me in."
"Both Jen and John are well-respected long-time poker players who have paid their dues and deserving to represent the 2015 class," je izjavil Ty Stewart, ki predseduje odboru članov Poker hiše slavnih.
Navkljub nespornim dosežkom sveže sprejetih legend je bilo v odzivih čutiti nekaj nejevolje, saj v Poker Hall of Fame še nikoli ni bil sprejet evropski igralec. Mnogi so bili mnenja, da bi morala biti priznana nedavno preminuli Dave ‘Devilfish' Ulliott, ali pa francoski 'kralj' Bruno Fitoussi.
