Bryan Micon lets us know everything is fine a juicy cash game.

The World Series of Poker isn’t all serious stuff. Here at BluffMagazine.com we’re well aware of the personalities that make this game so interesting and we wanted to find a way to deliver that to you. That’s why we’re bringingg you the “An Orbit With” interview series. Nine questions, one to represent each hand played in a single orbit; asked of some of the biggest names in the game. Look for new Orbits each day.

For this Orbit we talked with king of all degenerates Bryan “The Icon” Micon.

What’s your life like the ten months of the year outside the WSOP?

People that only come for the WSOP or the Strip don’t realize that we have a whole city here. I live here, it’s just regular life. I stay at home with my girl, play online, run my site NeverwinPoker, and play a little live. Pretty much just take it easy, but this next month and a half is a frenzy. 

What’s the sleaziest place in Vegas you’ve been?

As some of your readers may know, I’m the king of all degenerates. I do go to some sleazy places. I don’t go to North Las Vegas that much, but I’ve spent a little time at the Binion’s coffee house.

What is the last book you’ve read?

The Stu Ungar story was the last non-strategy book I’ve read. For strategy it was the Joe Navarro book.

What poker player is the best dancer?

I did do the “Thriller” dance so I’m qualified to answer this. I have to give it to Chris Ferguson because I’ve seen him ballroom dance. If you ask me who the best rapper is, it’s Brett Richey.

Which strip club is cheering for you the most to win a bracelet?

I don’t go to strip clubs, I have a lovely girlfriend. The last strip club I went to was the Velvet Lion to support a friend. Wait, that doesn’t sound good - there was a free bottle involved. 

What was your first car?

My first car was a 1989 Honda Accord.

Finish this sentence: Right now I could really use…

A bracelet and $500,000.

What’s your excuse for those shoes?

Advance your token to Go. Collect $200.

The Monopoly kicks are smooth as hell. Obviously big ups to Riff Raff from G’s to Gents. I totally copied him. When I saw that Monopoly shoes were available I scoured the internet to find them, it took a long time. What better place to debut them?

If you could choose one player to beat heads up for a bracelet, who would it be?

It’s gotta be Phil Hellmuth just to see the disappointment on his face denying him a little bit more of history.
