Can't watch at the moment but thought I'd pass that along.
Now I'm being told it's a rerun, which makes sense
Premiered two hours ago. Interview, not playing..
https://youtu.be/EqMAsl6FXkk
judging by appearance only, Micon looks as believable as a used-car salesman
Hey guys im in southern Spain right.now for a month it's beautiful here. Nice to hear from Micon. Sometimes I day dream about radio coming back like it was before with Micon and the gang. Because even tho he left he's still part of the team forever.
micon BACK
Micon way more liquid than bottomplumber.
nice pun :)Quote:

Absolutely true but since he's a deadbeat dad unfortunately we can't say the same for his kid.Quote:

Between the 4 and 5 minute mark he tried to explain NWP by saying it was him and Dustin.
The host asked, "Wait, wasn't there a third guy?"
Micon looked super uncomfortable, and mumbled something like, "Ummm... well later, there was a third guy, but at first it was me and Dustin. Anyway...."
:lol3
You should change your forum name and radio hosting name to "The Third Guy."Quote:

I thought Bryan Micon moved to Aruba years ago?
https://pnimg.net/w/articles-attachm...d57466d73f.png
He's in Antigua.
That's it. Antigua.
But does Micon and his family have passports issued by Antigua & Barbuda?
They advertise that you can get a passport from Antigua for $100,000.
If you do not have a passport from there, you must leave every 6 months.

Pretty sure he's there legally.
Where did you get that pic of him? I assume he posted it on Twitter or something?
Kid pics not really cool.
Anyone can stay in Antigua, up to 6 months.
In order to get an Antigua passport, you must get an HIV/AIDS test, have no criminal convictions and pay somewhere around $100K.

He sounded good and it was fairly interesting.
He was high af, but sounded more relaxed than he used to sound. I just assumed he still lived in Vegas. I heard the third guy part and laughed. He was talking about playing for World Series bracelets. Can you plan for those in Antigua? I thought that was just a Vegas thing. Can you play for them elsewhere in US?
This year's wsop has events you can play worldwide on GGPoker (Negreanu's site).Quote:

He also talked about his return to wsop only because it was online.
kids playing great.
at least USA doesn't have pterodactyls or natives
more like uncletigua
Kids a far cry from when he was begging me for ideas on how to clear $5k a month
Congrats Bryan!
Yeah, he’s certainly giving off the impression he’s quite wealthy, and I believe he is given what btc was when he became a devotee.Quote:

Had a few good scores and then bled it off iirc, despite having access and being friends with some of the best of the time. What he was great at was seeing Dustin and poker blowing up, and then btc, and finding a way to cash in. That’s a good skill to have. Better than poker. He had a lot of weird ones in between, but he found two things that really paid off for him.

advantage slots era micon was not playing great.
Because he is clearly still hurt by it, you guys had a awesome thing going. Listen I think this all bullshit, you guys should just call that shit water under the bridge. Who hasnt had falling out with their families or close friends??. Imagine we could sit here one day and say Micon BaaaCKKKK!.Ya it will be a little awkward at first but who cares. Was the best damn show on radio period with Micon druff and Zod. Anyway I say fuck all that shit from the past and Micon should come BACK..Quote:

He's a true success though, new outlook on life is far from the king of degenerates. Pretty cool to see actually.

Maybe I missed it in the interview, but what does he do now? I fully understand it’s possible he never has to do anything the rest of his life financially, but is he involved in some specific btc venture that lends itself to being outside of the US? It’s not still seals, right? I never played on the site, but I assumed it’s donkdown or in others hands. I’ve seen pics of him on private planes and occasional tweets that appear like he’s living really well, but I don’t know if he has some job in crypto or just is involved in advocating for it? I see a tweet saying they are building a crypto Silicon Valley there, and something called teamchaoticgood, but I can’t figure out if he just manages his portfolio or is involved with a particular crypto company or what?
Antigua is beautiful, but I assume he lives for for a reason. Is it some crypto haven? Other than occasionally checking the btc price when it gets bumped, I rarely pay attention and hadn’t thought of Bryan in years until I saw him tweeting during riots. I just assumed he was sitting on a bunch of btc’s and was in Vegas. He always seemed close to that tournament crew and I just assumed he was still out there. He sounded good, and like he was happy, and calmer than he used to sound. He always struck me as an ADHD type guy, like he couldn’t shut his brain off but also couldn’t focus. Always scattered. He sounded like he has matured and is happy and relaxed. It was good to hear.
It's pretty incredible some of the trends micon got out ahead of the mainstream on. Wasn't he big on drones and vaping before they blew up huge?
I wonder if he ever went out of his way to seek retribution against the neck tattoo scammer that rolled him for 10k (or whatever it was) after he finally acquired the financial resources to really fuck someone over if her felt like it?
Micon was always money motivated and opportunistic. I think he only binked two things. Affiliate market and BTC. Fairly sure he lost money on almost everything else.
There might have been a point in 2005ish when he wasn't a losing poker player. Micon System and 10k to a guy with neck tattoo are likely the funniest shots he took. TBH BTC was just another guy with neck tattoo. There's probably 10k Micons that are broke now.
Micon always took shots at stuff and finally hit.
Didn’t he buy a pallet of blue of DVD players or something to resell or was that someone else
Got a free copy of the Micon System to review for our website....couldn’t even do a review...it was terrible, and I was a pretty easy reviewer.
Micon Back will never happen, Even when the guy goated him in to saying Druff was 3rd guy he wouldn’t even say his name, That’s how deep the hatred runs, Druff has same amount of hatred towards micon and would cream himself if micon ever goes bustedQuote:
