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.

haha you donk face op. You have no right to critique rain, I Don't watch poker just for the Donkament allins. AK vs jj. People watch poker for entertainment and what rainkhan does is fun to watch. If you cant handle it, don't play poker cuz you will lose all your money to the dozer.

Khan's antics were not just annoying, but just plain stupid. He was just trying to get people to look at him in much the same way that a five year old acts up in order to get attention.

Also: nice grammar for someone who calls someone else a 'donk face'.

Khan might the most despised player in WSOP history (pre-ESPN telecast)

[kleath]

Khan IS like that in other areas, he gets excited. Doesn't really matter if you think he was playing it up or not but especially in gaming he did before poker(marvel vs Capcom 2) the things he did at the WSOP were fairly mild. I think most poker players really need to relax, way too uptight. If he's not berating other players/getting in other players faces I dont think its a problem, difference between Brenes and khan is Brenes gets in your face with the chark goads you etc.

another online poker douchebag to add to the list

And by the way, I hope it's well-established by now that Phil Laak is "just like that." You can still think he's annoying, of course, but he certainly doesn't do it just for the cameras.

I was playing in a cash game with Phil Laak and Mike Gracz at Bay 101 and Phil was explaining to Mike how he did all of that stuff on televised tournaments specifically for the cameras to get meadia attention. He thought it was a good business decision to play up to the cameras.

Phil was super nice and polite during the entire session and never did anything outrageous or crazy. HE definitely is an eccentric guy, and seems very cool, but that just makes his TV antics that much lamer.

I wonder if people deffending Khan have actually played in a 10k+ buy-in event? Or if they have gone deep in a 10k+ tournament? I think these people have no idea how it feels to get knocked out in one of these things, specially if you have gone somewhat deep. It is a really gross feeling, and to have some kid act like an idiot while you just got eliminated, makes the entire experience that much worse.

[fnurt]

Oh, I have no doubt he plays it up. I'm just saying I've known him for much longer than he's been a poker celebrity and he's always been a spaz.
