On the Poker Boob Front

It seems like there was nothing but boob related talk in the poker world over the last few weeks.  Jose Conseco tried to pass for a woman, boobs took down WSOPE, Jean Robert has man boobs, Pam Anderson used hers to erase a poker debt, and Bryan Micon demonstrated that he was one.

Jose Conseco and some pals insisted on playing in a women’s only tournament at the Commerce, resulting in one poster over at 2+2 speculating that steroid use had shrunk his man parts to the point where he is now technically a woman.   The Commerce decided to let the guys play rather than fight a potential discrimination claim.  The gals didn’t seem to mind as they promptly relieved them of their dead money buy-ins.  

The World Series of Poker in Europe didn’t have a huge draw - but it was definitely an elite draw.  The field was clogged with bracelet winners.  In the end, however, it was 18 year old Annette_15 that took down the main event.  While normally the industry would be exploiting and promoting the boob angle associated with a woman taking down a main event, I think Annette’s age and playing history have them in a bit of a quandry.  While legal to play in Europe, she is still a few years away from the US age limit - and they won’t be able to pimp her in the US WSOP until then.  And the fact that she apparently honed her chops as a decidedly underage 15 year-old has the industry grinding their teeth.   Perhaps worst of all, she is primarily an online player - words that are now only whispered in the states - which isn’t something they feel comfortable pumping up in a press release.  But for all of us that have been watching Annette tear it up online, it was really only a matter of time before she won a B&M tourney boobs down. 

Poker pro Jean Robert Bellande may survive on this season of Survivor, but the audience is wondering if they’ll survive the continued exposure of his man boobs.  I did not watch the first episode, but I haven’t read this many posts about man boobs since Hellmuth’s televised shirtless balcony shot.  C’mon guys.  TV adds pounds (and apparently cup sizes).    

Pam Anderson reportedly racked up a $250,000 poker debt at the tables recently.  She was abe to find some sucker Rick Salomon (of Paris Hilton sextape fame) to erase the debt for a little ”make out” time.  No matter how you define making out, I still think she struck a good deal.  Kinda makes Brandi look like she was giving up more than she had to for mere satellite buy-ins.

And lastly, Bryon Micon has outed himself as a boob, detailing how he got scammed for $12K by an alleged con artist.  If anyone is interested, scamming Micon looks pretty easy; make up a Beverly Hills address, rent a fancy car for the day, claim your gazillion dollar bank transfer got hung up, and pretend to be amused when Micon throws $300 worth of one dollar bills down on the dance floor of Rain.  If this was just a hoax for traffic - kudos.  If not - how sad.

    I almost agree with you, Amy. I might make a substitution, though…
