Title: Simon Trumper's new sponsor Post by: Exorcism on May 23, 2006, 12:51:47 PM Well done to Blondeite Simon Trumper on getting sponsored for buy-ins and expenses to play three of the biggest tourneys at the WSOP.
In case I say the wrong things or mention a rival poker room or poker news site (I was told off for using links before - sorry chaps), you can find out by doing a Google News search. The information is currently no.1 under "Simon Trumper". It is my article and contains Simon's own quotes to me. I am posting this only because Simon is a Blondeite. Title: Re: Simon Trumper's new sponsor Post by: TightEnd on May 23, 2006, 12:56:40 PM Well done Simon

Title: Re: Simon Trumper's new sponsor Post by: RED-DOG on May 25, 2006, 12:35:17 AM I’ll tell you a little story about Simon Trumper. About 4 years ago, when I was just starting out, I used to play a £10 re-buy at Annabelle’s in Coventry. We used to get about 25 runners, 1000 starting chips, and a 15-minute clock. The players themselves were the biggest bunch of leg pullers and piss takers ever assembled. One evening at about 8:45, I was standing at the bar, waiting for the comp to start, when who should walk in but Simon.
Late Night poker was responsible for getting me hooked on the game in the first place, and suddenly, one of the stars of the show had just entered the same comp that I had. I was in awe of him, he was the first player “Off the telly” that I had ever seen. The rest of the guys weren’t so shy. They ribbed him mercilessly, and extracted every bit of Michael that they possibly could, but Simon took it all with a good grace, and gave as good as he got. He finished 5th for about £50, which he promptly donated to the waitresses. It was a fantastic night, especially for me. Why was a player of Simons stature playing a £10 re-buy in deepest Coventry? He was there to promote an online card room that was sponsoring him at the time. Whether it’s a £10 re-buy or a $10,000 main event, Simon gives it all he’s got. His sponsors can be sure he will give them 100% He’s great value for money.

Title: Re: Simon Trumper's new sponsor Post by: Dale on May 25, 2006, 11:40:02 PM I’ll tell you a little story about Simon Trumper......... What a letdown, thought I was gonna hear some juicey gossip there. 8) Title: Re: Simon Trumper's new sponsor Post by: I, Zimbra on May 26, 2006, 12:49:23 AM :goodpost: Red!
Simon knocked me out of the very first live poker tournament I ever played, at the Gutshot P4C event last year. First he nicked my blind with rags, then he knocked me out with pocket tens (I had an ace, and being a newbie, didn't realise he was all-in already before I moved in from the small blind... doh!) It was *only* a £25 entry £10 rebuy comp, but there was proper poker to be played, and Mr. Trumper was certainly playing it better than I! Title: Re: Simon Trumper's new sponsor Post by: charmaine on May 26, 2006, 02:01:26 AM Simon also makes a great waiter!!!
LOL (Still gives me a giggle that one, P4c doo for those who remember) DAMN!!! MUST stop posting on the wifes account ;goodvevil; |
