Great tourny player, may not do as well in live games as he used to do though. He will still probably be a winning player but people have found a way to combat hyper aggressive styles like his in the side games so he may not do as well as some people think. Might be close to how Gus Hansen does.

Why?

SELF PROCLAIMED GENIUS.

He would be the second-best player after Kenny Tran.

He should have won 4 WSOP ME's. I believe he was the chip leader at the 1990 ME and then had a OD in his hotel room and was blinded off in 9th place. He was unreal when he was on his game and wasn't coked out. He will always be my favorite poker player of all time.

This is a dumb thread because assuming someone was reborn, kicked a drug habit, and kept up with a rapidly changing metagame that poker has gone through the past 10 years. Who knows?

Would that be a cool millionaire or just a regular?
