After he was severely injured on 9/11, city cop Mike Kosowski started playing online poker to escape the pain. All those hours in front of a computer paid off - Kosowski just won $1 million on a TV poker show.
"Talk about lucky," said Kosowski, 53, of Staten Island. "I was one of the luckiest guys in the world to survive that day. And now this."
