• He was on the UltimatePoker.com Showdown and played against Liv Boeree and subsequently, made her cry on television.
• After the show, he played in numerous online and live poker tournaments, gave lots of interviews, and tried to get his name on every piece of merchandise available.
• Filmmaker, Ricardo Lacombe noticed this unique personality and decided to do a documentary on The Jester’s poker lifestyle.
• After winning very little in poker, he retired.

Until the other day, when I saw the crude antics and disgraceful bantering of The Jester in of all places, a UK Civil Service Poker Tournament. I had to ask him some questions.

Why did you play this tournament?
It was a UK Civil Service Tourney and of course in the Civil Service I am almost akin to a God. I am a hero to these people as that is where I started.

Can you give our readers a description of the tournament setup?
The game was just 40 people over four tables. I was on table two with the most conservative players ever. To say the deck was cold was an understatement, more like sub-zero. The only time I won a hand for two hours was when I made stone cold bluffs using my superior acting skills.

How were the other 39 or so players?
As these were amateurs, I had their tickets marked pretty quick and as such stole lots of blinds to keep me floating. I was pretty awesome with my reads and I think people were impressed when I told them what they had folded and how they should play in future. I am giving in my teachings, I am not in it for the money, well a little bit, well a lot.

How did you fare in the tournament?
I got into the last 15 without having done much except be great.

It was strange to be sat playing poker with 40 civil servants who drank large quantities of booze from the initial deal right through to the end. Sadly because of the cold I couldn’t handle the cards correctly and made a blunder after dropping my cards and as I attempted to pick them up, I knocked all my chips in with A6!!!!! I mean it’s hardly J7 suited is it?

Needless to say I walked out in 12th place, with a moral victory as I told them had I been warmer, and the deck had, I would have whooped them. There were some murmurs of approval, I think, as I stormed out. I have no idea who won and nor do I care. They are all beneath me and I doubt I will honour them again with my presence or presents of knowledge.

Where do you see…
Shut up, chav, let me speak for once! Take this down and let others know.

The Jester is starting his UK tour from December 09 through to June10, so watch out!

And with that, The Jester left the tournament and headed into the night.

Now, you might be asking, what is the Twitter Poker Tour? The TPT Board of Directors states, “It is a weekly online poker game modeled after the comfy ‘home game’. Just a group of online friends playing poker.” Sounds fun, right? If you have said, “YES!”, then sign up occurs at TPT:Poker Stars Central Command. You still have plenty of time to register. The event begins tonight at 9pm EST.

As with previous TPT events, PokerPlasm Europa has published this week’s issue as well. The big featured stories are:

• Exclusive interview with the Poker Spokesman, Ari Pietarinen. This guy is going places, so keep tabs on him. In addition, he shares tips and knowledge that can help players grab that edge.
• Our reporters uncover that the Lee “The Jester” Cambell is working on a sequel to A Jester’s Tale. PokerPlasm was associated with the first film and we are trying to correct that mistake.
• We track down John “The Greek” Leontakianakos and get his feelings on his appoint to the World Poker Associations’ Board of Directors.
• Finally, we have started a weekly piece identifying players who should not play poker. Street3 is this week’s winner… and could possibly be every week’s winner from now on.

Help the Twitter Poker Tour continue to grow! For twitter search fanatics, the hash tag #tpt is being used on twitter for updates and trash talking. The latest talk can be viewed here.

Lee “The Jester” Cambell has been awarded the World’s Worst Poker Player award for 2008. This honor, given out on an annual basis by the Society of Poker Players, is a tribute to gross incompetence, shameful gambling patterns, and utter poker inability.

Other notable candidates were Whiskers (Society of Poker Players Cat) and the citizens of Sheffield, UK.

PokerPlasm Europa was the first to report on this breaking story. Asked what he thought of the only award he has won in the poker arena, Mr. Cambell had this to say,

This is a bunch of bollocks!

Asked to comment further, Mr. Cambell pushed this reporter and cameraman away, and walked briskly into his Sheffield home. Before slamming the door, he replied with,

They…you…everyone will hear from my attorneys.

Another losing case for Mr. Cambell’s legal representatives, Beasley & Drabble Associates. More on this story as it becomes available.

Now, The Artery Health Institute utilizes EDTA (ethylenediamine tetra-acetic acid) and the EDTA oral chelation technique that cleanses the arteries, removing plague, cholesterol, and heavy metals. These agents are unhealthy, especially to a stressed out poker player, like The Jester, who has never won in poker.

So, if you are like The Jester and lose bundles of money at the table, maybe moving away from the game is in your best interest. Or if you are addicted, then The Artery Health Institute can help you control those artery buildups that could hinder your future playing abilities.

Or better yet, create a stamp that says, “I Beat The Jester!”? There is a stamp that everyone would see, because everyone in fact has beat him. I might buy one for the The Jester that says “I Lost Again…Boo Hoo!” Both of these stamps could be custom made.

But seriously, I was checking out some custom rubber stamps for PokerPlasm recently. Why? Why not! I could have the PokerPlasm logo on a stamp and plunk that thing all over documents, newspapers, books, junk mail, the list can go on forever. Stamp anything really…

So if you ever need rubber stamps, the RubberStampChamp.com is the place to go. I am looking for a stamp as we speak, errr, as I type. The site is quite fun to window shop at, and the purchase process is easy. As they say, they have the “Best rubber stamp prices in America.” Now how can you contradict that!
