Origin of a name ....

Many of you might be thinking, "hmmmm where the heck did the name PrettyPokerBoy come from ?" ..... "this guy must be the biggest A-hole walking around calling himself the 'PrettyPokerBoy', I mean what kind or arrogant ass does this sort of thing ?"

My girlfriend is the one that call's me "PrettyBoy" ... she started doing it because my hair has that frightening newscaster-like quality. It never moves ! ... all the hairs on my head pretty much stay in place no matter how windy or crazy the weather gets. Then we got to know each other a little better. She found out that I took longer than her to get ready in the morning. This prompted her to add a little whispy twang to the pronounciation of "PrettyBoy". You know, how the Fab5 would do it !

From there it was just a natural extension to throw the poker part in there. If you've ever had to come up with a domain name, you know how difficult it can be. You want something easy to remember. Then you have to cross your fingers that the 11 bagillion people out there have not already registered it. It's a big pain in the ass.

Now fear not. I have not left the rest of you without hope. I've also registered the domain prettyboypoker.com. I'm thinking ahead to the days when my minions of prettypokerboy's from the prettyboypoker crew will dominate the poker scene !

Of course, we'll have to alert Vegas before hand, so they can stock up on hair gel !
