Identity Notes
It is worth noting that the name 'Sean Murphy' is shared by at least one other notable figure: a club owner in Belfast, Northern Ireland, whose poker club was raided in 2006 (BBC News). Whether this is the same person as the tournament player is unclear from available records, but the WSOP profile lists his country as the United States, suggesting they are likely different individuals.
