Re: WSOP: does everyone act like an idiot, or just for the cameras?
[ QUOTE ]
Acting like a pro when winning a big pot is pretty common, but it's not really too interesting, so they don't show it on TV. This is similar to how people complain that calm and professional athletes don't get as much hype as cocky loudmouths.
It irritates me too, but it totally makes sense.

Yeah, that's really what I'm asking, never having been there myself. I kinda assume that there is a dual effect of people hamming it up for the camera plus selecting clips of people going nuts.
It just strikes me that ten years ago no one at the final table would have put on a jumping-up-and-down-screaming display that seems to be the rule rather than the exception lately.
