Default Re: Wsop 2005 winner- Does he have a nickname?

Many years ago, there used to be an old saying that cowboys used, as they revealed and displayed their winning Draw Poker hand, particularly when they held a straight or better, of "Read'em and weep!"

This was changed, by poetic licence, to "Hold'em Hachem and Weep" after Weeper came to the fore by winning the 2005 WSOP Main Event.

Now, instead of the longer and perhaps slightly more formal Joe "Hold'em Hachem and Weep" Hachem he is known to his friends simply as "Weeper".

A lot of poker champs don't have a nickname, including the guy who kicked off the poker the boom, the 2003 WSOP Champ (although his last name could not have been more perfect).

yo monkey nuts

Aussies have some of the best nicknames in the world.

if a guys name is Jackson we call him Jacko
if a guys name is David we call him Davo
if a guys name is Michael we call him Mikka
if a guys name is Cook we call him Cookie
if a guys name is Daryl we call him Dazza (if we are lazy Daz)
if a guys name is Barry we call him Bazza (if we are lazy Baz)
if a guys name is Patrick we call him Paddy
if a guys name is Jason we call him Jay
English People are Poms
American people are Sepo's
French people are Frogs
Italian people are Eyeties


see the sophistication?

Now Nzer's (folk from New Zealand) they have no creativity when it comes to nicknames.

MERRY CHRISTMAS
Dink
