Hevad Kahn

Is this guy the biggest jerk in poker or what? Those stupid celebrations of his when he busts somebody look like he's having an epileptic seizure. It's kind of like the old football saying, when you get to the end zone act like you've been there before.

I just saw the hand where he busted Humberto Brenes out of the Main Event. Until then, I thought that Humberto was the most classless POS in poker because of the way he acts when he busts somebody, but the way Kahn acted made Humberto look like a perfect gentleman.

i met him the other day and thought he was actually a pretty cool guy

Both are now team pokerstars, coincidence?

He may be a nice guy in person, I wouldnt know, but his tv persona is that of a douche.

I wouldn't call Humberto classless, just an annoying idiot playing to the cameras.

Kahn is pretty much the same, I think he was legitimately having fun. Although he was a douche when he flopped quads, he handled a situation with class - when the guy did the "reeling in the fish" motion to him. I probably would have flipped there.

He's guest commenting on the EPT London final table webcast now and sounds like a perfectly rational human being.

They're answering emails and I wish he would address his behavior in the WSOP, which I agree was despicable.

tufat, who cares how he is in real life? His TV persona is absurd and annoying. If I was at the table with him, I woulda been like hey [censored] shut the [censored] up before I make you, this is poker not the special olympics, now shut the [censored] up.

Khan is a douche. No doubt about it.

I dont mind people celebrating, but pointing all the attetion to oneself when you just busted someone (famous) is just a dick move.

He seems nice but he's such a retard at the table. It's just annoying as hell.
