Default Jerry Yang on Online Poker

from the new Edition of Sports Illustrated

[ QUOTE ]
Yang, who learned to play poker two years ago from books and television, could be a fine ambassador for poker websites-if he ever used them. "I try to be there for my six kid," he says. " I hear horror stories about addiction and about playing four online games at once. ."

[/ QUOTE ]

LOL Wasn't he at the final table with RainKahn?

Four tables, six kids, it all seems so unneccessary!

The beginning of the blurb:

[ QUOTE ]
Last year's World Series of Poker winner, Hollywood producer Jamie Gold, cheated during the tournament (he flashed one of his cards to an opponent) and later went to court in a squabble with a business partner over his winnings. This year's champion seems a less contentious sort. Jerry Yang, 39, is a church-going Christian who snuck into a Binion's Horseshoe bathroom to pray after nearly busting out of the WSOP on Day Three.

Playing more than one table at once is also a clear sign of worshipping the devil ldo.
