Poker After Dark - David Benaymine\'s weight problem
I'm watching "poker after dark" last night (east coast 2:05 am NBC) and i see Benyamine to the far left in a striped red and white full tilt poker shirt. I can see he has gained some weight since i saw him on season 2 of the world poker tour just by the rounded cheeks and lower neck area. Well then the camera does a pan-around of the table and i see a full body profile of Benyamine. All i have to say is this many is seriously overweight. Not morbidly obese or anything, but he has a tremendous amount of girth, around his midsection. Recent studies show, waistline girth is more of an indicator of current and future health problems than overall weight. This guy was a tennis pro! How in the world did his metabolism slow to an absolute hault to this extent? If i had to put Benyamine on a list of out of shape poker players, with Raymer, Benymine and Lederer on the list I'd have to rate them as such:
1. Benyamine 2. Wayne Newton (I've seen him in poker rooms) 3. Lederer 4. Raymer Although Raymer is bigger, he is huskier and his overall weight is distributed more evenly as oppossed to just his waistline area. Lederer has had obvious previous weight problems and doesnt appear to be taking great pains to keep the weight off now. This pic from the website doesnt do it justice but watch the show tonight before he gets knocked out (looks inevitable) and look as the size of his shirt (probably a XXXXL) and the size of his waist. An unhealthy man indeed. http://www.pokerafterdark.com/player...avid_Benyamine |

It's a little different watching people do something and playing for hundreds of thousands of dollars. The latter is more exciting, I'd expect.
In any case, I don't see how any of these people's weight problems, whether they have them or not, are our business. |

Nick Varner, just because he doesn't want to see two people beat the [censored] out of each other doesn't mean he can't sit in front of a computer for 20 hours and play nose bleed poker. Guarantee that shirt is not 4XL either.

David Benaymine's weight problem???
WTF. What kind of a post is this? Do you want to ask him if he hires you as his personal trainer or what? Why do you care about his weight? |

[/ QUOTE ] That's exactly why he doesn't want to sit around for 3 hours. He even said that at the time -- he's already sitting around enough for his job. |
