Faldo’s Annual Top Thirty Most Powerful in Poker

Bluff Magazine put out their top 20 list. Nik’s Poker Palace has it’s own list. If you don’t know why someone made the list, ‘google’them.

I think you know why Faldo made it.

I tried like heck. I really did. I told the NPP Tournament Committee – and Tiffany, at the secret meeting place of NPP – not to vote for Faldo for the list. It shocked Tiffany so bad, she almost fell of the stage – I mean the library chair.

Yeah, that’s right. It was a library chair.

After all, with Faldo in the race, the outcome was in no doubt.
