People like OP have ruined America and poker.

This is actually true.

It wasn't this way right in the midst of the boom. Things were a little different then.

But it is now. And, I doubt it would have made too much of a difference, but what there was left for trying to get publicity from an unknown spot, ESPN killed for sure. I didn't watch it for like 6 years and then I saw it again and all they did was flash from coin flip to coin flip to coin flip. They literally almost showed nothing but flashing to situations where play was over and everyone was all-in.



I also cannot name the last 2 winners. I recall Peter Eastgate and Greg Merson and I'm pretty sure each of those were a few years ago.

I believe you. Couldn't tell you their first names.

"In an interview with BuzzFeed, two dermatologists told readers that washing your skin every day removes the good, useful bacteria that keep your skin healthy. This bacteria acts like a shield against harmful bacteria. It also helps keep out toxins from chemical soaps, shampoos, perfumes, and other personal care products."

Joe McKeehen is prophet you fools.

My thoughts:

Making this thread is really weird. Nonetheless, to give my opinion on the three items in question (with no particular person in mind --- and I mean that, I have never met Joe McKeehan and know nothing about him):


1. Not tipping the cocktail waitress is kinda messed up. I get that the usual understood tip of a dollar is way too high for a beer or a water or whatever. But she works the same as a waitress where it is understood that tips will be paid. So long as she does an adequate job, she should be tipped something.

2. Shower. Every day.

3. Who cares about twitter? I actually don't mean to be insulting, but whenever I see anyone care so much about twitter or whatever, I wonder why they act so much like a 13 year old girl.

Last 5 winners? I'm gonna give it a serious crack....

Pius Heinz
Jonathan Duhamel
Jamie Gold
Jerry Yang

I'm sure I've missed some. There was an ex-con at one point I think.

Or they could take an 8 minute shower. It only takes 8 minutes!

Eh, the OP has an admitted personal grudge against McKeehen and is trying to get us all to join in by pretending there's such thing as a Poker Ambassador or that McKeehen's Twitter settings are inhibiting the growth of poker. So it's not just that somebody was rude to his wife, but that it's hurting poker and costing us money in the long run.

Totally untrue and daily showering is less healthy than showering infrequently

Google it

Who gives a ****?

Tell us about these interactions? I mean they won't beat


But still.

"Plus my wife congratulated him on his main event win and he just looked at her with a blank expression for like 3 seconds and then shouted out to 1 of his buddies across the room. My wife told everyone how rude he was but it didn't surprise me." Also, I guess ECB once saw him not tip a cocktail waitress.

ECB also wrote: "Winning the main event is 1 of the rare few events that could have propelled him to a well-liked global ambassador and he could have made a positive name for himself."

ECB believes that winning millions of dollars requires somebody to change who he is in order to satisfy the expectations of strangers he doesn't care about.

its funny cuz i cant name a single poker player who is a well liked global ambassador. Especially not a main event winner.

was going to say negreanu but he still is pokerstars bitch and no one likes him now.

This remind´s me of the hitchhiker in Ben Stiller´s car in Something about Mary.

If he doesn't hit set over set there's a strong chance Munk wins the main. Dude was playing so good.

1. Personal hygiene at the table is an underrated courtesy to other players. Everyone should make sure they're freshly showered, deoderised, teeth brushed, so they don't have BO or dogbreath. I sit at 10 person tables, we are jammed up next to each other FFS.

2. Someone won the WSOP and didn't spew all over social media about it? GOOD. They're setting a great example for everyone else...win millions of dollars and shuts up about it? That should be the bar for whether or not to post your trivial life events all over the internet.

Lol no. He played the hand weak and scared pre. Had he raised he woulda got 3bet by the guy with qq and mckeehan woulda probaly folded his sixes pre and he coulda flatted, flopped his set and won a big pot instead of busting. Had mckeehan not sucked out against Beckleys ak he woulda been out long before the final table, what if what if what if. So many things obv have to happen to win a donkament as we all know let alone the main but JS wasn't playing the best out of who was left when he was eliminated

Excessive showering
Excessive tipping
Excessive tweeting
Excessive use of double letters in words where one letter is enough
OP and his wife

I tweeted at stealthMunk asking if Joe was playing this year. Mckeehan was tagged in the tweet and turns out he blocked me.

What a pretentious ****

Who is the worst 6th place finisher in Main Event History?

I wish people would stop posting that they got blocked by him as if it's a brag. He made his account private. That isn't blocking, it just means you have to request to follow.
