and yeah, if I was playing with brenes and I moved in with KK and he took 2 minutes to call with AA because hes trying to get the TV cameras over to the table id probably punch him.

I rarely get tilted by other players' antics but Brenes is one annoying mf with his shark and stupid singing. I was surprised Mahatma didn't throw chips at him in last year's ME.

brenes and the shark thing is embarrassing.

wonder if gordon is doing the powder or something else.

actually i think gordon is a good guy. he doesn't care about the money so much as having a good time. he's joking around in his own way but people take it the wrong way.

this wasn't horrible, but it's worth mentioning in NVG...

last year at the WSOP my wife brought our little girl down to have dinner with me during a break in one of the early events. she's 8 at the time & had really been getting into ro-sham-bo. phil g walks in as we're sitting down & i had seen him playing 100 dollar games throughout the day.

i told her she should go ask him if he wanted to play, thinking it would be cute. she does, & the first thing he asks her is if she's seen him on tv...which i guess makes sense, but she says no because she has no idea who he is, she just wants to play rock, paper, scissors. he looks frustrated at this already.

he then says that he plays for $100 per hand...to my 8 year old. i tell him that i'll put up $20 for her if he wants to play for that & he pulls out his money. turns out he only carries hundreds & he has $17 in small change on him. i agree to lay him the 20-17 because i think my daughter laying odds his hilarious. he wins the first two so there's no third, takes the money, and turns and walks off. no thanks for the game, not even as much as a smile - just off he goes. it was like he couldn't wait to take the $20 bucks and split.

it reminded me of the character from Tin Cup that Don Johnson played...he hates children, dogs, and old people. well, children anyway...

I love the end exchange in the lindgren video. Very entertaining when

Ivey says, "I think i need some cocktails"
Gordon: "order me whatever you are having"
Lindgren: "you prolly already know what he wants"
