Great to see Simon on the calendar.  A Cheeseypoker original and, consequently, one of the first opponents I faced around a table on a regular basis.

Nowadays, contact is limited to the odd chance encounter at DTD when I venture down there and Facebook, where reading of his seemingly fortnightly trips to Vegas never fails to kick off the envy!

Forest through and through too, riding the highs and the lows that come with that allegiance, with quiet humour.

Top bloke!

Very pleased for Simon to see that he made the calendar.

I've known him for the best part of twenty years and he has never been anything but a gentleman at all times both on and off the table, I'm delighted that he is now in robust health too.

As others have said, he's a top man.

A blonde member since 2006, Paul "BobaFett" McTaggart has had quite a year.



I've always had a sneaking admiration for Boba on this forum. The forum used to be a real battleground for Old Firm debates and as a keen Rangers fan Boba was always outnumbered on here and, unlike some but by no means all others, always managed to debate with humour and a light touch. These days the debates are fewer, and less strident when they happen, but I see Boba's self-deprecating approach to the latest travails of the club he clearly loves on social media all the time.

Anyway, that's by the by. Back to 2012. I watched Boba make a very deep run in the 1725 runner Nottingham UKIPT DTD. I was impressed, and thought him to be much improved both in terms of temperament and ability from the last time I saw him which was finalling a Sky Poker event a couple of years earlier.

Six weeks after UKIPT Nottingham Boba shipped the roughly 400 runner Genting Poker Series Edinburgh title for over £32,000 beating actionjack Heads Up. This was of course a breakthrough result, and he followed it with a trip to Vegas and a WSOP cash, and top 25 finishes in two UKIPT events and a DTD £500 through the rest of this year



Boba has been increasingly active on blonde in 2012. Here's to another successful year for him in 2013

A really good player and a nice bloke as well....never really knew him, however after I took alot of % in WSOP Vinny took great pleasure in telling me how good Boba was v others I had a % of, and he proceeded to have a deep run as well.  Good luck in 2013
