I played with him last year at the WSOPC event in New Orleans and he seemed like a nice guy. Didn't do anything annoying, but that said there were no cameras.

i played at the table next to his on the second half of day 2 of the main event last year - a lot of this period of his play was covered in the espn coverage. it was obnoxious being within 20 feet of him when there was a camera on our side of the room. when there was no camera around he seemed to play poker. possibly a little table banter, but certainly much toned down from the "little skit" with his card marker and song and dance that you see every time he plays a hand on tv.

Yea, it was very probably the most classless, [censored], attention whoring thing i've ever seen done at the table.

"Professional" indeed.
