On the subject of his favorite card being a nine, Dulaney explained, ��Basically, it��s one of the lowest pairs you want to get involved in big Omaha pots with, but I��ll take the lowest of the low if I��ve got to. I��m a ��come from the bottom�� type of guy. Everybody in Houston knows that��s my hand and I��m a Houston player through and through.��
Asked what aspects of firefighting helped his poker skills, Dulaney��s response was unequivocal: ��All of them. I take aggressive firefighting tactics and apply them to the poker table. I��ve always done that and now it��s paying off.��
