why spend ur time caring tbf

fwiw i think its prob a bit of an act.  if he didnt have that kind of persona at the table then he prob wouldnt get all the TV appearences that he does

i like watching him, he makes me laugh, but he is def not the sort of player you would want on your table! i would find it hard not to lose my rag!

He's very annoying but entertaining at the same time, overall I like having characters like Schwartz and Hellmuth in TV games. LS is surprisingly good when he's in commentary box as an analyst.

Ok we have had this about 3 times + now, basically i didn't like him but now i find him quite entertaining

i also think he's a better poker player then i originally thought, so he won me over

He's very much an acquired taste. I know people like Tikay are all about good grace and class at the tables. I tend to agree with him.

BUT.

You have to admit, from a poker playing perspective, that what he does gets people off kilter while playing. That leads to them making mistakes which equals more money for him. So, as long as it stays on the right side of the line (which he's definitely on the wrong side of from time to time) it has to be considered as an option to some players.

After all, Tony G's been doing it for years and having interviewed him I can tell you he's one of the nicest people in poker away from the table. He's just very naughty at the tables....

lol, yet again this subject brings lots of opinions, i personally think he is a great player and you need to use every advantage you have to gain more chips as long as you dont cross the line. On monday night he played the premier league poker and made a great move again david bennyamine. That showed class with the shove at the end. The only problem i have with him is he goes on non stop about his heads up play, ive seen 2 of his and 1 in the pkr he got destroyed and he got beat heads up in the premier league. so not a fan of that. Most pros like him because he brings a fresh approach to poker that should be applauded.

I remember him getting into Juha Helppi's head during one of the UK annual televised tournaments (can't remember which one). Juha looked like he was steaming, and Tony kept singing to him "If you're happy and you know it clap your hands"
