    campaign to get Druff on HCL

    I think Druff would do ok on their Monday feed the blinds arent high compared to say Fridays high stakes and a couple of them are majorly loose players like DGAF. Or perhaps the Thursday which is also a 5/5 game (but has a $100 BBA and seems to play a lot higher often closer to the big game on Fridays).. Tuchman could probably make it happen.

    I have considered asking to come on, and it's possible they'd say yes, for various reasons:

    1) The Hanson Kid is a frequent commentator there, and he is a regular PFA listener.

    2) Patrick Curran, who works behind the scenes at HCL, also listens to PFA.

    3) I have always had a good relationship with Ryan Feldman, and he appeared on PFA Radio in 2021.

    4) While not a big name in poker or a hot chick with my tits out, I am not a nobody, either. There would probably be at least mild public interest in my appearance there, plus a lot of interest from fans of PFA.


    I would just need to figure out which episode to appear. I would not want to play anything above 10/20.

    Does Druff have a marketable identity at the table? I’ve never really seen anything but the seat cushion spinning video after all these years.

    I suspect he’s probably pretty business-like.

    The Hanson kid and Druff could be a pretty entertaining pairing. They have history and both have a sense of humor. Does Druff adopt the “alt right guy”, “the old guy”, “the guy who should be in the booth instead of Hanson”. Need a persona

    Maybe Druff should be behind the mic.

    I’ll lobby Hanson if we want this to happen.

    Druff can def get on the show with his relationships alone. The problem is there isn’t really a game for him. Monday is kind of a set lineup with a gimmick. It is 10/20, but from what I’ve seen it always turns in to 10/20/40. Tues/Thurs is the 5/5/100 ante game….which is really a 50/100 in disguise. The good players open raise $300. Vertucci buys in for 35K. Wednesday is usually 25/50 at least.

    Druff could def commentate but HLC is very strict with a one person booth. Nick gets in on Friday sometimes with Bart, but that’s the exception. They used to do limit streams on LATB back in the day and Druff would be perfect for that. Problem is they didn’t get much viewership, so I don’t believe HLC has ever spread it or ever will spread it on stream.

    They should find him a seat in the Monday game one of these nights imho.

    They had some chick I’d never heard of tonight playing on the stream or should I say sitting there and nit folding I swear I think Mason would’ve played more than this Andrea chick did. Actually I think Mondays show would be ideal for him. They were mixing in NLHE and PLO tonight which Driff has been playing. No run it twice stuff and such either

    If they had a limit game I would love to hear Druff commentate.

    Unfortunately boring to watch though.


    Did watch a bunch the super high stakes week. In general like their setup and their players aren’t the best at poker but generate exciting action.

    Would tune in to watch Druff play. Perhaps a good night could help keep the lights on.

    I played on Stones, just a few months before Postle showed up there.

    I was about to ask to play on Hustler, and then this Robbi scandal happened.

    I think this is a sign I should stay away from streamed poker.

    I guess nothing bad happened on my two Live at the Bike appearances, other than Bart Hanson (who didn't know me at the time) being tricked by chatters into stating that I competed on "Man Versus Food".

    I think you’re tight but a good personality. Not sexy though. I think your quirky angle and follows would be enough of a draw.
