i played with him before the cameras and he was a bit excitable on day 1, but on day 2 evening as a big stack (he was at the table next to me with gus and sorel), he would wait for the cameras and then start dancing and screaming.

me jc tran and this irish dude who ft'd the me a few years back all shook our heads in disgust.

Scott Gray ? If so, you couldn't meet a nicer fella or a much better player, and if Scott thought it was offside that's good enough for me.

I felt embarrassed for him, that's usually a bad sign.

Khan rocks, he is a very colorful character with a special type of humour. Khan was/is the funniest guy at the FT. Great Guy!

Yeah, we need more loud, obnoxious douchebags in poker. Good for the sport. Err, game.

His after table interviews showed him to be an OK young man, but

I thought it was pretty out of line when he started dancing when Yang and (Hilm or Watkinson) were all in in a big pot.
He obviously knew it was a big hand which would make the broadcast and he was trying to get attention, can't particularily blame him when you see how Laak built a career on the same crap, but still it was diserspectful.

anyone who doesn't think khan's final table antics were incredibly lame and douche-like, is very likely to be a douchebag themselves.

that kid was a clown and i would have been embarrassed if one of my friends acted like that.

This makes me sad, because I totally bought into the notion that he was just naturally spastic.

I DON'T BELIEVE IN NOTHING ANYMORE

So...to summarize the thread:

We don't all agree that it's inherently lame/wrong to act like a douchebag at the poker table as long as it's for the purposes of getting on tv or winning money, or a supposedly natural extension of someone's usual personality.

i love your posts, shane, and i usually agree with you.

shane,

what is worse:

-green blazer
-acting obnoxious at the table

just curious

[/ QUOTE ]

green blazer, not close, but we're not talking about my fashion choices in this thread.

[/ QUOTE ]

I actually just watched that ep of the WSOP and I was thinking...where can I get a blazer like that. And Im not even kidding. I thought it was sick.

But then again, I cant figure out why guys where things like Oakleys, striped collared shirts and cacky pants. I guess I just have a weird fasion sense.
