Chad Brown Wins Bluff Player of the Year

Brown, a professional poker player who has been playing poker since his childhood, considers this one of his greatest achievements. In a forthcoming interview with Bluff Magazine, Brown commented that he was both gobsmacked and flattered at the news.

�This is an enormous accomplishment to be very proud of,� Brown gushed. �To put this in context � if I was acting, it would be like I won an Oscar at the Academy Awards.�

But Brown is no stranger to winning. His tournament history is, after all, what gained him this title. But Brown draws a distinction between being player of the year and being the winner of a major tournament. �It�s not like winning a tournament,� he said. �Anyone can get lucky one day and win a tournament.

�But all the best players in the world play all the big main events and the Player of the Year award is defined by [your achievements] in all the major tournaments.�

Bluff�s proprietary ranking system awards points to players who finish in the money in North American poker tournaments with at least a $5,000 buy-in, where there are at least 100 competitors. Brown scored a total of 470.44 points throughout 2006, beating runner-up JohnnyBax by almost 30 points.
