Default bond18, please bypass the shark, just kill humberto

i cant think of a more annoying way of being sent to the rail (except maybe by brandi, rousso or gordon. maybe.)

from pokernews:

"The Shark is Coming!
ESPN cameras surrounded Humberto Brenes's table as he stood up from his chair, hoisting his pocket kings high into the air. "Who has the kings? I am the King!!!" Humberto said, after calling an opponent's preflop all-in bet; his opponent showed AdKh .

The board filled out 5d 2h 4s 4d 8s and Humberto celebrated wildly as his opponent sat grimacing, waiting to find out whether or not Humberto had him completely covered; he indeed did.

"The shark is cooooming!" Brenes proclaimed, as he open and closed his arms, mimicking the jaws of a shark.

Brenes stacked up just over 50,000 worth of chips after the hand."

I've never even met Humberto and yet I've at least 90 minutes of my life fantasizing about feeding him into a wood chipper.

No. Discussed this with several oldtimers who are tourney vets and Humberto used to be a quiet, respectful guy before the cameras came into poker.

Even after the cameras came in initially, he was fine. Watch the 2003 WSOP segments again. In the hand where Scotty Nguyen pulls a huge bluff on him or when he plays the huge pot with Moneymaker, he was quiet and pretty much respectful.

I didn't see him getting "crazy" until the 2004 Five-Diamond final table, and even then it wasn't in such an annoying, ass-hatted manner. 2006 WSOP and beyond he has been nothing but tacky and classless at the tables, esp. where cameras are concerned. It's really a shame, and total inexcusable.
