Throughout the first few days of the Borgata Winter Poker Open, one player's striking resemblance to the wily Walter White had us hooked like Heisenberg's infamous Blue Sky.

Although he would only identify himself as "Mr. White" initially, the man in the black-brimmed porkpie hat eventually informed us that his name was Iverson Cotton Snuffer. And while that moniker may not strike fear into the hearts of men like Heisenberg did for five glorious seasons, poker players in West Virginia know Snuffer to be a very bad man indeed.

According to data compiled by the Hendon Mob Database, Snuffer is the 23rd all-time leading money winner in West Virginia, capturing more than $68,000 in just three years of play. As told by Snuffer, however, the amount of money he's taken from the tables in his home state just might fill a few barrels in the desert.

"I've scored way more than that internet says I have," he told us in between rounds. "If you count the smaller daily tournaments I've won around the state, I'd say I've got 'em for more than a couple hundred thousand."

Just like his alter ego from Breaking Bad, everything Snuffer does is for his family, and he made sure to let us know that his "beautiful wife Jamie, children and grandchildren" are his inspiration when competing on the felt.

As Snuffer told us, he was born with a deck of cards in his hand, and with his consistent play here in Atlantic City, we've no doubt that this tall tale is rooted in a grain of truth. Just like Heisenberg.
