rom RaiNKhan's Cardplayer blog:

On one hand, I knocked out Avi Cohen with A-K against A-8. ESPN caught my reaction which was pure excitement. Hopefully, I don't come across as arrogant or a bad sport. I'm just here in the final few tables of the World Series of Poker. Who wouldn't be overcome with emotion? It's so pure and simple in a way. You can win or lose and it's just so exciting. I feel like a sports star, in a way, that just kicked the winning goal at the world cup for my team. I love it, this is the greatest thing that I've ever done in my life and I'm just happy that I'm here.

I do think it's genuine emotion. The guy is totally pumped to be this far in the ME, though I can understand how the celebration doesn't sit well when you just knocked someone out.

Fair enough. But those with class channel their emotions in ways that are considerate of others.
