Gavin's demeanor has always impressed me more than just about any young pros who I have observed on tv or in broadcasts. He never loses his composure, doesn't celebrate when he wins a pot, and doesn't bemoan his fate when he loses a big pot. I try to emulate this calm, results-distanced perspective when I play in the big cash games in NYC and elsewhere. I really admire him and it's a shame that players who have calm, even-keeled temperments do not get the recognition they deserve.

That said, wasn't there a thread on neverwinpoker about him showing his family jewels to a "chick" and getting scammed out of pokerstars $?

How many times have you seen him to say stuff like "always".

I mean, yeah, he gets credit for being the one guy under 25 who wasn't a foaming at the mouth jackhole that year, but has he been on TV since?

Nice score for him though. Will curtail my mockery of his backers for the time being [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img].

What that said, I am very impressed with that the EPT has done in Monte Carlo. The "spaceship" look of the the convention hall where the EPT 3 Grand Final took place was surreal.

Yes, the place looked amazing.

And wasn't it nice to see a final table where the players can actually play poker (no turbo blinds). I don't know if they'd even be interested but I sure wish whatever entity is running the EPT could take over the WPT's duties when WPTE finally fizzles out.

The rumors on neverwin poker were at least partly false. It said in the story that Gavin was hanging out with me in Vegas. I had actually never met Gavin tho, so the scammer was making at least that part up and very likely other parts of the story

Warped member? I don't remember hearing about this, what's the story? Actually scratch that, I don't want to know.
