Tiffany Michelle Interview on Pokerroad

Anyone listen to it? 

She dismisses the UB scandal as in the past even though people are uncovering new and malicious things every week.  Just say it's because they hooked you up with a sweet deal to wear a patch, don't act like UB is on the up and up.

Also, I'm pretty distressed by her talking about how great her deep run will be for women in poker.  A woman won the WSOP Europe and has tons of other results to back it up.  Annette is the face of women in poker... Tiffany Michelle just ran well in one tournament and will no have no bearing (ZOMG) on poker for females for getting 17th in a tournament.  Congrats on being this year's Maria Ho!

I've listened to every pokerroad show and this is honestly the first time ever where I had trouble getting through the show because of the guest. 

Sorry about the vent.  Just really annoyed and aggitated by the whole thing.  I think she just rubs me the wrong way.  Not sure if I'm the only one.

EDIT:  I know nothing about Maria Ho's game in the least, I just know the two times I've seen her at this year's WSOP she was walking around with bodog gear talking about her agent while on her cell phone.

junsie: 

she totally sold out Pokernews who BOUGHT HER ENTRY, I hope they take a bunch of her money in court.  Maybe UB's new management is heading in the right direction but let's be honest here she went for the $$$ only.  She's not going to be the face of women for poker, she's as Wein said this year's Erin Ness or whoever else.





mmmmmmmm erin nesss.

   There sure are a lot of haters out there!  First of all let me say that I do not know TM  nor have I asked friends that know her about her and who she is in any form.  That being said either show the contract that she had (and broke presumably) with Pokernews  or GTFO....  Who the fuck are you guys to take a young person with thousands on the line to the woodshed for doing what she thought was best for her.  We could name players on here who were playing for Bax/Sheets for X% & left to go play for someone else for a better %... We can relate it to Professional sports and a guy had a killer year and had a shitty contract & wouldnt report til it got negotiated & thats what happens in most cases & I CAN GUARANFUCKINGTEEYA that if any of you had a deal with PokerNews or whoever for $50k & UB or Stars or whoever offered u 200k  UD TAKE IT & IF YOU SAY OTHERWISE UR AN IDIOT OR A LIAR(PROLLY BOTH).

     Now the haters are gonna come back & say oh you have no honor & contracts should be kept BLAH FUCKING BLAH.   You do whats best for you and the ones you love within the guidelines of the law. Now if you can show me where her deal with pokernews says she's strictly forbidden from wearing UB's clothing for $ then thats different & she will have to pay the price but otherwise gtfo TM's back.  I cant imagine what u guys would be saying if she was ugly as fuck(not that looks should have bearing on this whatsoever).  I've only talked to Chino a couple times this week but I can promise you that he'll be taking the best deal for himself & his family as well.  GO  CHINO 

  & FUCK UB btw but I didnt want that to be the moral of the story... & whoever said TM cant hold annette's thong(assuming she wears one) thats a sick thot & seek professional help..

I don't really care what happened with UB as much as I think her interview on pokerroad made her come across in a terrible light.

Also, are you drunk when you post or do you really just lack an ability to form words without adding EMPHASIS to get your point across?

    Did not attend Oklahoma University fwiw & Grammar was definitely my worst subject not that I give a fuck.
   You make a post to trash someone you dont know & circumstances you don't know &  when someone doesnt agree you try to trash them... Good read.

I was making a statement based on your previous posts... and I was media at last year's WSOP so I was around her enough to form an opinion of her, but keep making assumptions.  Notice I didn't say anything else to anyone else in the thread that came to defend her.  I simply think you lack the ability to write well.

She made a terrible decision. Playing on UB isn't safe and signing with them is even dumber as it just makes you vulnerable to a lot of problems that are fairly likely to arise given UB's history. She also acts like she's been living under a rock throughout the interview.

Wein: I am trying to figure out if you are jealous of her 17th place finish or if are you ignorant? Either works for me! The best thing for poker today would have been if a woman could have won or at the minimum finished in the top 3.

So what if she signed with another site. Tony G acted like a whining baby in his blog statement. TM had every right to do what she did. Although, she could have saved herself alot of stress if she would have talked to Tony before signing anything.
