Lee WatkinsonDuring the summer of 2008, Card Player TV got a chance to tour the home of high-stakes poker pro Lee Watkinson, who is one of the more original players on the tournament circuit. The 48-year-old from Longbranch, Washington has just over $4.1 million earned in his career from live poker tournaments.

Watkinson earned his World Series of Poker bracelet in a 2006 $10,000 pot-limit Omaha event and made the WSOP main event final table in 2007, finishing in eighth place. In addition to poker, the Eastern Washington University graduate also loves wrestling and surfing.

Throughout this edition of High-Stakes Living, Watkinson shows off some of his eclectic taste, which includes his uncommon pets.

You can check out Watkinson’s home below.
