Message: [QUOTE="Poker Orifice, post: 1126376, member: 33113"] You honestly figure her goal was anything but placing as high as she could... or winning it even??? I personally spoke with Tiffany for quite awhile back in Nov.'08 (and on same day I hung out with Dennis Phillips also.. actually played in a 9-plyr. sng with both of them). She was peeved the way television chose to portray her in the MainEvent but guess what.... it's entertainment!! The hand that is portrayed on television where it appears she gives a guy like 15secs. or so to act on his hand (even though she's not even in the hand) was a complete falsehood. It was more like 15+mins.!! Why did she want to call 'clock' on him? Because the blinds were going up and her intentions were set on trying to win!! Do you think the fact that she was the last female standing has done anything for her as far as endorsement money goes?? Guess what... it does!! When I watched the WSOP MainEvent televised of course I thought she was a total a-hole... but I was only going by what I was seeing on tv (an edited version meant to be entertaining.. for poker players and non-players alike). Haven't you ever read a newspaper article or seen a bit on tv news that you knew alot about but when you read (viewed) the story it was so twisted from the truth you'd hardly recognize it as being the same story?? If you haven't.... trust me it happens. A friend of mine's son died last year and it was on the tv news a few times per day for about a week. Do you think they cared about his son? No.. they cared about it being NEWS. The story was so far from the truth that it was almost surprising it could even be aired on tv. It is media.. entertainment... .it is what it is. I wouldn't say Tiffany is my favourite player or anything but I must say she was the most amiable poker pro to both myself & my girlfriend of every poker pro we met and hung out with that weekend. You'd probably be surprised to hear who was the least friendly of them all. She came across as a fairly intelligent, down-to-earth individual. I can't say much for her game (surprising about how some players make it in some of the big tourneys... but maybe not all that surprising.. just watch the final few tables of the Sun.$750Kguar. on Fulltilt each weekend and FOR SURE you'll see a couple of huge donks who've gone real deep in it and walk away with a huge cash). Defending Tiffany here once again. To those bent on dissing her... can you give any evidence aside from what you've seen in the media?? Hmm.. that's what I thought. [/QUOTE]
