who is very calculatingly playing it up for the camera in hopes of becoming a poker celebrity. Which he probably will if he can do anything at a televised tourney within the next year or so. How much you want to begrudge him for that is up to you.

Do what you have to do to get paid I guess, but doesn't mean I have to respect him for it. There's thousands of other players in that poker room he's playing with -- what's so special about *him* that he doesn't have to conduct himself with a little bit of decorum and a little bit of class while everybody else does? It's not very hard to down a bunch of red bulls and say "f it" and completely lose your sh*t and act like a jerk-off. It's actually a lot more difficult, and worthy of respect, to carry yourself like a gentleman with some class and dignity when you're playing for high stakes under immense pressure.
Plus, his "act", if that's what it is, stinks, is not funny, and he just comes off as an under-socialized geek.
If I was his father I'd give him a slap and tell him to act like a man, for chrissakes.
