Name: D.S.Cheyenne
Pieris
Nickname (how'd you get it): The Fist.
Its the Final Table at King Richards house and I push all in and get a call
from Brent (The Storm) who is dominating my hand. My four card straight (thanks
Poker Gods) causes a category five Storm of expletives to come flying out of
Brent’s mouth. This rant included many colorful words but one phrase to add to
4SPT lore – “You must be Fist F***ing me!” C-Mint called it and after one year
on the Tour my nickname finally came to be. Storm, thanks for the nickname,
I’ve always liked it.
Age: 33
Location: I'm a CA
Native…now on the Westside Palms/Mentone Ave. – the Degenerates are not the only players on
this side of town.
Favorite hand to play:
Any
one that wins me the pot.
Favorite pro player:
Tough
question but I would have to say it’s a tie between “The Great Dane” Gus Hansen
and “The Phenom” Phil Ivey. Both of them mix it up, play any two cards and are
consistent champions.
How did you learn about the 4SPT:
Via
the long lost Tour legend Vonnn
Sannndmannn. Thanks Vaughn.
When did you join the 4SPT:
Not
sure exactly but I think Aug. or Nov. 2005. Jeff help me out here?
Best thing about winning the 4SPT:
Getting
out of the zero win group and knowing my skills have improved. Most of all is the fact that I will not
repeat as the winner of the “Most Likely to Donk Off All Their Chips and Blow
the Chip Lead Award” – I was the 05-06 winner.
Most exciting/best hand you've had on the 4SPT:
The
last one I had, clinching the first win – flopping a 6 to hit my A6 off vs.
Jamie and his A10. We were all in pre-flop and I thought my win would remain
elusive but Susan called it when she said “all you need is a 6”.
4SPT player you don't want sitting next to you (why):
I
have to name two in no particular order: The All Time winner – Richie Rich –
who can argue with his success? His table talk is always deceptive and
investigative. Do you want him next to you? Also the titALating ALternate – Al.
A solid, smart player, he is always a force to be reckoned with.
Where/how did you learn to play poker:
I
started with my buddies (now the Mentones) when the poker boom came on about 4
years ago. I’ve been a poker player ever since. Once I started beating my
friends regularly, I looked for a new challenge and found it on The Tour.
Any other interesting stories or whatever else you want people to know:
I want to
thank Jeff and Jenn, two fine people who lose sleep every Thursday night to put
on this Tour. They created a smooth working, superbly organized, competitive
game that is a privilege to play in. Finally, I take pride in playing well,
being competitive and improving my game; so thanks and respect to everyone on
the Tour for making it what it is – fun and challenging, every week.
It's about time you guys let him win. Now he'll be donating $20 every week like he used to. Look at Jamie...

I think I should take it as a compliment I didn't make the "Person you Least Want to Sit Next To" list, since I think we've sat next to each other more often than any two people ever! Or at least we have for the most consecutive weeks ever. Think it ended up being five straight games being sat immediately to your left. Coincidence? I think not.
I was indeed hoping for more fist fucking banter, but oh well, this profile will have to do I guess!
ALL HAIL THE FIST'S FIST!!!
