Why is your Poker name.....your poker name?

tell us the story behind your name or reason why your poker name is what it is!

I'll start with mine....on FT it is ChipaJones....people think im a braves fan but im not....chipa for chips in poker and jone is my last name

on PS it is Kingcurtis67....Curtis is my name and being a king is just cool 6 is my girlfriends favorite number and 7 is mine..

Mine is the same as my name on here. It's just a name i've been using for years on all sorts of internet things.

P.S. My last name is Jones as well.

Premierplayr is my online ID for almost everything.

Well, If I told you that you probably wouldn't want to know.
But Egon, please let Bodog know that Tapa is ok : )

Going AFK so I can use the phone...
If that matters to anyone, you have to remember that I, too, am parinoid...

???? dont think i understand

When i first saw the matrix, one of the characters was called switch, and i thought that was a pretty cool name, so i took it with the numbers of my birthday

Well, my real name is Jochen... which no one can pronounce. Since my initial is J, my nickname became Jay. And since I don't talk much (and am a bit of a Kevin Smith fan), it became Silent Jay. And since that's usually taken when I register somewhere, I usually add my year of birth... resulting in my username being "SilentJay76" (or something close to it) almost everywhere... except at Pacific, where it's Jay876 because they're still stuck in the 8-characters-max DOS era... and Jay76 was already taken... so I added the 8 for August.

VirtualFish

Virtual...because all of my poker playing takes place online.

Fish...because of the poker connotations.

On FT you can even have a picture of fish

KingNothing4 because im a metallica fan and i thought the song title "King Nothing" was a pretty cool name, and 4 is always my number (go rob blake, LA Kings!) and it was 1 of the first things that came to mind haha. but i like it

I like steak kives.

Don't really have a "poker name" yet - the one I use is a bit presumptuous so I'm keeping that one a secret, but I haven't been dubbed anything yet. Saw a guy called "Rivermaker" on TV once. That was cool until he was knocked out by the River lol

Arahel_jazz has been my alter ego on the Internet for years, going back to some of the original Yahoo message boards. The first part is a sonic mismash of my real initials aRAheL, the second part is just the fact that I love Jazz music (and play it fairly poorly from time to time).

I like it because it is easily unique in the Internet and can usually sign up on any site without duplication.

Inscore because of my last name and the 77 is my high school football number

just like mine on Stars and other sites,"Orion469"- Orion for the Cliff Burton(R.I.P)bass solo on Master Of Puppets(also my avatar on PS) and the numbers because I'm always up 4a69 with the wife

if anyone can remember the cartoon ZIGGY back in the early 70's the short little boldheaded cartoon , that was my nickname growing up..and now that im a mom and a gramma of my 2 grandkids.....

Cheezymadman is my online handle for everything, and I'm the only person that uses it. If you see Cheezymadman anywhere online, it's me.

I know this because I googled it once, and every result was mine.

ALLLL MINE!!! MUAHAHAHAAHAHAHA

My username for poker is always MSword. Its my name, Michael Sword. However, funny little people think im either Ms.Word and a female or that I am in fact a computer program.

My online username (since everyone else is doing theres) is Mugetsu and was pilfered from the old PS2 game 'The Bouncer'. Terrible game but oh so funny!

I live in northern Colorado with some of the world's most beautiful wilderness right at my doorstep. When I'm not playing poker, you can find me with fly rod in hand searching for rainbow, brown, and cutthroat trout along the Cache La Poudre River.

GORP - Cache la Poudre River - Colorado

Since the "Poudre" (as we call it) is designated as a "Wild and Scenic River", and since I've seen so many "Wild" rivers in poker, it seemed a natural choice for a screen name.

jaketrevvor is fairly self explanatory as tis nought but mine own wretched name (kinda )

Because I am DaFrench1.

My name started on the baseball field. Trent is a very good baseball player and everyone would always say, "who is that kid"? I would say, "his name is Trent and he is mine". No one knew my name then so I was always called Trent's Mom.

The extra m came when I opened 2 accounts on paradise poker. Since the account with the extra m had money in it I told them to cancell the other.

I am aliengenius because evilaliengenius was taken...

well my is simple at PS, FT, Pokerroom it is Arana_NZ
Arana is my 1st name, english version is Alan
NZ is short for New Zealand,
Easy to remember and lets every one know where im from.

I used to use "CobraJack" because it's car I drove and my name.

I now use "ItsOk2Fold" and "Ok4u2Fold" and "FoldUDonkey". I like these names because they remind me that when you know you're beat "it's ok to fold". It also helps other players to let go of their cards when I make a good bluff.

This one's a bit spooky........I hope you mean you love to use them while cooking!


My nick, There's an adventure waiting around the corner for everyone if they'd just open their eyes to see it. I'm just looking forward to it more than most people. I'm a bit of an adrenaline junkie, skydiving and bowhunting with an oldworld style long bow in Africa where the odds are seriously stacked against me are my worst addictions.

For you guys that don't understand hunting, Try looking down a cedar arrow at a Cape Buffalo that would rather kill ya then run away once and see if it doesn't get your heart pumping! (and remember there will probably be 20 to 50 buffalo in the herd withing 10 to 50 yards of ya with the same attitude) Also remember that when succesfull an entire 3rd world village gets great food and money that would have never came any other way.

my highschool nickname is chief. my buddy abe made it chiefer and it stuck. 77 is the year i was born.

adventurebond is so awesome

fastplay. just an atempt to biuld a loose table image.

vanquish cuz i vanquish noobz

lmao, I'll have to check EvilYumboltking.

I picked up the Yumbolt part hard earned during a trip to Amsterdam and added the king part in admitted self aggrandizement [is that a word?].

I remember my dad calling my mom Mabel and always liked the name. I tried using it when I signed up on PS, but it was taken. So I tried a few different variations of spelling and quickly realized if I spelled it "Maybull" it had a few different connotations. And viola.

My poker name is IamBP because I actually am BP.
