wow bobby you have your own website? great if i want poker avice i will go there not here, at least i know the advice comes from someone who actually plays for a living!

[MicroBob]

I wouldn't necessarily go there looking for great advice.

If you want to see pics of me on the PPM cruise or read my latest bad-beat whine or learn all about the latest with my rec-league soccer teams (our men's team is 4-1-1, co-ed is 1-4-1) then my blog is THE place.
Oh yeah, I do actually compose relevant info about poker on occassion. But you REALLY have to look for it!!

Bob, that's too funny. Even my gf laughed at you. Hope you Tivo'd it.

EDIT: Hmmm, that reads much more mean-spirited than I intended, which is not at all. Hope the fame lasts.

My GF and I thought it was kinda noobish, we laughed

haha @ it being you

Fun to be on TV though.

[MicroBob]

geez...lots of you guys sure seem to watch a lot of TV poker with your GF's.


So basically...every 2+2er's GF is laughing at that 'total n00b' on TV who just happens to be me!!
I guess I can live with that.

Not the first time I've had everyone laughing AT me (and not WITH me).
I tend to have a true talent for that (and now i've taken it to nationally televised levels).


edit: BTW, I doubt anyone's GF will have laughed harder at this than how hard MY GF is going to laugh when she finally gets to see it.

Congrats Bob!

I was almost on TV and it also involved a cell phone.

Marco Traniello was at my table when he made that phone call to his wife, Jen Harmon, after she busted out early. (He was to my left)

What the cameras did not show was Marco crying uncontrollably on my shoulder afterwards!

(No. Not really, I can't back that up.)

now I have to watch the repeat in the bar so I can say "Hey I know that guy...that's Micro Bob."

So, is this before or after you go allin with 33 sooted? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Also, any idea which wsop episode it is?

[MicroBob]

all-in with 33 was in the Stars double-shootout where I qualified for the WSOP.
I was heads-up with JC Tran (although at the time didn't know it was a 'name' player) and pushed my shortish stack with 33....and spiked the set on the river to suck-out against his 88.


The episode is the first one from the WSOP main-event (day 1a) and is at almost the very beginning (right after Norm and Lon do their introductory stand-up hello's).

GOD I MISSED IT! I dozed for like 15 minutes.

Oh well.
