Completing nomintion on another editor's behalf, i have no opnion on the merits DES 03:09, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
I nominated. Not notable. Winning a preliminary event at the WSOP does not meet the requirement for notability per WP:BLP1E. He has done nothing else notable, the rest of the article is fluff. There are what seem like three RS's but each simply says he won a tournament and then quotes his opinion on random stuff. We already knew he won the tournament and we know one event doesn't make you notable -- even if 3 RS's confirm you won it. Handpolk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 03:28, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
*Weak Keep*Delete He fits under Wikiproject:Poker essay for notability and while that's just an essay, he did win a very significant event and is a bracelet winner. There are just enough references in which he's sought out for poker expertise by reliable sources that I'm barely on this side of the line. CoffeeCrumbs (talk) 04:28, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
- FYI that essay is out of date. There is unanimous agreement on the project talk page for no longer automatically considering bracelet winners notable. Who exactly to consider notable we haven't agreed on yet. Handpolk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 05:40, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

- Thanks! If there's no longer consensus on that issue, then I'm over on delete.
- Speedy keep. Nominator is virtually certain to be nine-time banned User:DegenFarang. Article was previously snow keep here when this banned user previously nominated it. The article has two references from the New York Times, one from the San Francisco Chronicle, one from the largest poker site in the world, and others from reliable poker sources like Cardplayer magazine. 2005 (talk) 03:19, 4 July 2015 (UTC)
