Laak is a clown and represents douchebaggery in poker. Unfortuantely it's paying off for him. I wouldn't trust Antonio and Laak playing on the same table...

I like him. I think he's quite humerous sometimes and I think he really is a big kid out there with his comments, just having fun. Saying all that, I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him, or Antonio, but I like watching Antonio as well. I'll take both of 'em over Michael Vick.

The problem with Phil Laak is that his noise volume is way too high for the overall amount of hands he plays. The rocks shouldn't act like the clowns. Besides that I don't care about table-image on HSP and stuff. They all know how he plays, regardless how he displays himself at the table.

Then the hand where he had a set of 7s and Todd Brunson did that hand motion thing, Phil immediately got mad and went into such a hissy fit. He turned a game with a good atmosphere into a serious one.

If you believe someone is angle shooting you for ten thousand dollars, the good atmosphere is already gone in your mind.

Few points:

1. Todd was messing with Laak precisely because Laak is an angle shooting scumbag. Todd is one of the true good guys in poker, and the best player at that HSP table. That wasn't a move Todd would pull on just anyone. Probably very few would deserve it, and Laak is one of them.

2. Tilly talks like a little girl.

3. Laak's "personality" really isn't. In the real world, histrionics about every little thing quickly get super old. Maybe makes good TV for the 1st time viewer or casual fan, but ultimately Laak seems only to crave attention for pointing out the obvious with overacting while playing boring nitty poker.

4. Tilly is 48 years old.
