Default Gigabet - A class act

I watched some of the episode last night and I have greater respect for Darryl than I did previously. Things that I noticed about him.

He is respectful - he doesn't have to resort to overtly berating other players. He lost to Brunson when he was way ahead and simply said "Good hand Mr. Brunson"

Emotionally detached - This guy plays his game, makes his decisions and lets the cards fall as they may. He doesn't jump out of his chair and act a fool like a lot of these characters. He has confidence in his correct decisions and there is nothing else to do.

Thoughtful, strategic, calculated - When you read gigabets stuff, you need to digest, regurgitate, and re-digest to really understand what he is getting at. This guy understands strategy on all levels and can execute on them at every level. He underestand odds, he understands risk management better than anyone.

I really think that we are going to see a lot from gigabet, it is my opinion that Gigabet will quietly emerge as a poker star who's celebrity becomes secondary.

Yes. Even if he's gay (like they say) it doesn't matter. He's the real deal.

I agree with the things you said, but if I am not mistaken, he said "good hand Mr. Brunson" on the AK vs. AJ hand.
