I agree with what's been posted in that it's not that bad, but that he should do as he's told by the TD, pretty simple.
My only gripe with Will is that he slows the game down so pathetically.
Hope he wins it, then I can update my pathetic poker claim to fame from "I knocked Liv Boeree out of a UKIPT" to "I once called the clock on The WSOP ME Winner as soon as action was on him".

Costs nothing to have manners.
Kassouf should learn some.
Good luck to Middy and Max Silver.

Wsop updates currently showing 8 Brits left out of 64 remaining... I'm guessing 800ish Brits didn't enter, to have 1 in 8 left is some ratio

Will is an rec with a real job, he plays poker to let off steam from his ego law job Monday to Friday. He would probably admit he has run miles ahead of the curve and just plays for the craic. Good luck to him . He owes nothing to the game because for every one of him there are the other 99 who are equally untalented are donors to the game long term and are allowed to do what they want as they pay the pros wages long term. This one just got lucky. Let him enjoy it, it will make great viewing in November if he gets there.
If he never had his first bink years ago in Ireland he wouldn't even be playing poker anymore. He is the classic survival bias rec.

Don't care about his backstory, manners still cost nothing.
Channing talls all the time too, but he never ever crosses the line.
Kassouf doesn't even know where the line is.

Neil is a 20 year pro will is a rec. Neil quite happily lets recs talk shit etc when they are losing in games, will is still losing long term he is just one of the 1% who runs ahead of the game via survival bias. The difference is will wins real cash so people think he should behave like a guy who needs poker to make s living, poker is just like a night down the pub to will. He pays his money talks his shit and enjoys himsoef

Is it impossible for him to have fun without being rude and upsetting people?

Not sure Will still has a job, or has had one in the last few years.

Course it isn't impossible but this is his personality. He expects to win given his career, he gets paid to talk shit for a living why would you expect him to be any different at something he isn't as good at as his career? He likes competition and will push edges to extremes like most lawyers will to gain any edge they can. If he was losing chunks to games people wouldn't comment. Ew wise he prob is a loser long term but 1% of these guys will win in cash terms long term that's gambling, me and you amongst numerous others are on the other side of variance and pretty much stopped playing poker because we need to eat week to week. I stand by what I say without his first big bink in Ireland he would have quit poker years ago. Class survival bias rec. good luck to him. He is perfect for the game.
If he was as good as me and you Keith he wouldn't have been s lawyer in 2008 he would have been beating even worse players than we were every hour of every day in £500 stts! He got lucky we didn't and kept his job and had a couple of binks to kid himself he is a player. He can afford it and has been spending the houses money since Ireland in 2009. Why would the biggest rec ever stop when it's a hobby, good luck to him, he is the perfect advert for gambling wish there were more of him around to suck idiots unto playing on betfair day in day out.

his twitter says he's solicitor + Pro Poker player
talking is fine, comparing him to Channing is laughable Neil sits reading the paper whilst Will talks for 101% of the time. 10 minute speech for him to open fold preflop. it's the accumulation of all that time wasted that is the problem and what is obnoxious about what he does, not necessarily what he says.

Does it really matter show much whether someone who is rude is a winner or not? Obviously the pro would be shitting where he eats but I'm not sure because someone loses money I'd let them act however they want.
