Conrad "iamnotblack" Simpson Looking to Compliment Ring Win with a Bracelet

Last December, Conrad "iamnotblack" Simpson topped a field of 96 runners to win the World Series of Poker Circuit Harrah’s Las Vegas Event #13: $400 Mixed PLO/NLH 8-Handed for a career-high $8,978 and his first gold ring.

It was a breakout win for the grinder, who the day before watched his friend and roommate, Corey "corgasm" Paggeot, win a ring of his own.

"I love PLO. I play hold'em for the most part, but I like PLO. It's fun," said Simpson, who does video work for Matt Berkey’s Solve for Why.

Simpson is off to a good start in this tournament and is looking for his fourth cash of the series after having finished in 106th place in Event #1: $500 NLH Kickoff for $1,080; 83rd in Event #4: $500 NLH Super Turbo for $955; and 369th in Event #12: $500 Big 500 for $765.
