With online poker becoming one of the Internet's largest social networks, it was only a matter of time before someone got married after meeting over a game. PartyPoker.com is delighted to announce what we believe to be the world's first marriage where the couple met playing online poker.
Gary Suffir, a 28-year-old New York attorney will wed 27-year-old Las Vegas artist Jackie Johnson at the Paris Hotel in Las Vegas on March 7, 2006. The happy couple met in September, 2004 playing poker at Party Poker.com, the world's largest poker room. Naturally, the wedding will have a poker theme, and the honeymoon will take place onboard the Party Poker .com Million V Cruise.
