have to remember alex has his backer standing right behind him, whenever i play with my backer near me i always play my best game and keep my nerves. That's actually one of the main reasons i prefer to get backed.
yeah,,,, if i was playing with him i would be tempted to put the headphones on... but you can actually get allot of info from his chatter when he is in a hand. worth bearing it just to get the info to be fair
