This just shows that Brian certainly has an ego problem/ personality defect. It doesn't seem that he has a completely sober-minded view of the game. Is he playing poker to maximize EV, or is he performing some kind of ego-masturbation...a big-boy version of "King of the Hill"?

call it a "defect" if you like, but whatever it is, it's what got him to the top in the first place. Pretty much any wildly successful person seems to have the same motivation, of simply being the best.

"Defect" is subjective, and without the one you're talking about, you'll never make it to the top of anything.
