Like, again, I think a lot of the young guys, they are thinking in that regard.
Well, for me, the one that stands out and probably because I was so young and it was my first year, like when I won a bracelet that year was I was friends with Scotty Wynn, the Prince of Poker.
And he was heads up against the guy named Kevin McBride.
And I was on the rail, you know, I'm like, wow, he's going to, you know, he's heads up.
And he was so cool.
Like he had a mullet, but it's perfect.
He had the white shirt, the black thing.
He's drinking a Michelob, smoking a cigarette, whatever, you know, all chill.
He bets it all on the river and the guy's thinking, and he psychologically owned him.
And he said, he goes with his beard, he goes, you call going to be all over baby.
So this guy who was an amateur heard that and was like, there's so much pressure in this moment right now.
I can't handle this pressure.
But Scotty just told me if I call here, it's the pressure's gone.
I don't have to be under it anymore.
So he sort of hypnotized them into making the call, you know, and Scotty had it.
Scotty had, you know, the full house and it was over for the guy.
You call going to be all over, baby.
