AWARDS & ARUBA

Thursday, September 24, 2009 - Tiffany M

What an exciting few weeks behind and ahead of me! I was thrilled to see The Amazing Race win their 7th consecutive Emmy on Sunday for Outstanding Reality Series.  I am so grateful to be apart of such a wonderful TV family and quality reality show that doesn’t merely entertain but challenges people, strengthens relationships, and exposes audiences to world travel and a variety of cultures.

Speaking of The Amazing Race, the season premiere is THIS SUNDAY, 8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT on CBS.  I hope you all will set your Tivos for Sunday nights and enjoy watching Maria Ho and I journey around the world.

Another thing I’m looking forward to in the next week or two is jetting off to the Caribbean for the Aruba Poker Classic. I seriously can’t hype this tournament and location enough so I’ll just ask you to picture what it’d be like playing poker in PARADISE. Last year my daily schedule looked something like this: Wake up, have breakfast on the beach, lounge by the pool and play a game of water-volleyball with my poker pals, play some poker, jet ski, sit in the sand and sip on a blended drink while watching the sunset, meet familiar faces at the hotel restaurant/bar for dinner and drinks, play a little blackjack or get a H.O.R.S.E. game going in the casino, bedtime…
and do it all again the next day. Don’t believe me? See for yourself… be there, Aruba… October 3rd!

I’ve started getting back into the poker groove. I’ve had a long sabbatical from the online poker tables but now I’m back! I came 16 people away from winning an $8500 Aruba package, ahhh poker… at least the trip was planned regardless of where I finished in that tournament. I’m back at my trusty ‘ole $1/$2 NL table as well, trying not to lose my entire bankroll a few bucks at a time. Be sure to keep your eyes pealed for some really fun promotionals and tournaments that I’ll be hosting on UB soon. I really enjoy the online UB poker community and I appreciate all of you who come play and chat with me. Hopefully I’ll see ya in Aruba and definitely at the online tables!

(With all this Aruba talk, I thought I’d share some pictures I took last
year!)

I’M BAAACK!

Saturday, September 12, 2009 - Tiffany M

The last you heard from me it was to announce that I’d be missing the WSOP Main Event… which was almost three months ago.  Most of you have heard buzz through internet chatter but CBS just officially announced that Maria Ho and I will be on the next season of The Amazing Race.  The cat is out of the bag!  When asked to be on the six-time Emmy Award winning show, it wasn’t too hard of a decision to skip the WSOP Main Event, contrary to other ridiculous rumors explaining my mysterious absence. Be sure to check out The Amazing Race at www.cbs.com for more info, photos, bios and videos galore!

As you can imagine, it’s been an insane few months but I am back, in more ways then one.  After an amazing and life changing experience, I’m slowly getting back into the groove of things and the rhythm of American life as well as getting back into the poker swing. I’ve re-signed on to stay with UltimateBet as one of their Star Players so you’ll be seeing me back at the online tables and in ARUBA!

Speaking of Aruba, for any of you who enjoy poker AND paradise, I highly recommend coming to Aruba. I’ve traveled all over the world playing poker and it’s been my favorite destination. They have the whitest beaches that I’ve ever seen, the bluest water, tons of ocean activities and 24/7 Pina Coladas and pool time… or you’ll have to try out the CHERRY Colada which Layne Flack introduced me to last year. The vibe there is so chill and will put you in the best mood… even if you donk out of a poker tournament!

Well I have a busy few months coming up and I’ll keep you posted on all of it.  Be sure to set your Tivos to CBS this fall, The Amazing Race airs on Sunday nights at 8pm ET and PT, with the two hour premiere on Sunday, September 27th.  I can promise that the action Maria and I provide will be MUCH more exciting than anything you’ll see at the poker tables.

Much Love!
