has been dominant.
Whether it was tournament poker, dominated it.
Mixed game high stakes poker in Bobby's room, dominated.
Online poker against all the wizards, dominated.
Made millions in every arena.
And, you know, he sort of took a few years away from poker with his legal troubles and things like that, but he's back.
He's been playing in the high roller series again, and he's cut from a different cloth, but he has a tenacity and a focus that's unparalleled, I think.
When he's in the zone, I mean, this has nothing to do with race.
It really has to do with mannerism, but he does remind me of a combination of Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods in the way that he approaches it.
He's very intense, and he outworks everybody.
You know, and I think, frankly, a lot of his mannerisms do come from them because he's young watching these guys on TV.
And a lot of his ways of being, you know, his learned behavior, I think probably from people like that.
