Fictional WSOP Bracelet Winner, Brian Baumgartner Doubles Up

Mar 1, 2008

Brian Baumgartner, who has been waiting patiently from the short stack, finally gets the rest of his chips in the pot with [JsJc] on a [QhQc9hJd5h] board, doubling up with a full house.

Baumgartner’s patient and equally methodical style of play comes as no surprise considering that Baumgartner plays Kevin Malone on NBC’s hit show, The Office, where Kevin is the fictional 2002 $2,500 No-Limit Deuce-to-Seven WSOP Bracelet Winner. In the real world that bracelet belongs to Allen Cunningham, and although Baumgartner may not be a professional poker player in real life, he gets to play one on tv…and it shows.
