i think what all this does bring to the forefront though, is just how wary and street wise all you pro poker players need to be. no fun on your own late at night getting aggro no matter how tough you ' think ' you might be. Like Evil Pie says always best to talk your way out of a situation if possible.
Giving that kind of money away to vastly improve the quality of peoples lives for a very long time to come , must be an amazing feeling. Ok he has got a big ego , most successful poker players have that in some ways too don't they ? I didn't like the way the programme painted poker and players in a negative way, however his act of generosity is to be commended surely . The man appears to be severely depressed having deep feelings of guilt into how his life has turned out. It's such a shame he cant enjoy what poker has done for him.
The old saying seems to apply here ' money cant buy happiness ' obviously that doesn't apply to everyone though .
Think i would be reasonably cheery if i won a few mill : )
