The world seems to be in a buzz over the current relationship woes and revelations of gold pro Tiger Woods, the poker community is no exception. The infedility, the car accident and other personal issues have all become public knowledge and whilst Tiger woods has been preoccupied with attempting to salvage what is left of his relationship with his wife (which probably isn't much after allegations of at least 12 women which he had extra marital relations with) by many public and personal apologies to his wife and his family, the controversy surrounding the golf star has seen much of the poker community amusing themselves by poking fun at the situation. Doyle Brunson, who has won the World series of poker bracelet 10 times, has been the leader of the online chatting about Mr Woods with many constant jokes about the golfing pro on his social networking site twitter feed under his user name @TexDolly. Mr Brunson usually spent his time on twitter posting numerous dumb blonde jokes but has recently turned his attention to jokes which relate to tiger woods.
Although they may be considered by some as being in poor taste, it is rather difficult for one to not have a good little giggle at the jokes about woods that Brunson has been posting. Jokes such as " Ping just made Elin an endorsement contract for a set of drivers to be named Elin Woods....'Clubs you can beat Tiger with.' " and more recently, in true holiday spirit, " Santa said, 'Ho,Ho,Ho'....Tiger said, 'Where, Where, Where.' "
Mr Brunson isn't the only poker player to be commenting on the troubles of the golfing pro. Full tilt poker pro Erik Seidel, Adam "akat11" Katz who is known for his online gameplay, Howard lederer, Alex Outhred and Scott Huff have also been putting their two cents worth in. Some of the poker community find themselves torn amist all of the poking fun because although they enjoy having a dig at the bizarre circumstances of Tiger woods life, they do feel that it is harsh for it to be revealed in such a public forum but with notoriety and celebrity status comes the media which you cannot escape, it is still up for debate if the media spotlight will dull on the situation any time soon, although it isn't likely to be over at any time soon with more revelations happening each day, one does wonder though how long it will take before Brunson tires of his tiger jokes and goes back to his dumb blonde jokes which have become something like a trademark of him.
