You are right

When he mentions Magic in his interview. Is this Magic the Gathering?   Does anyone have any experience of this game and how it relates to poker?    I have a friend who plays a lot of this game and we used to also battle it out playing chess/risk during our childhood.

I followed his progress in the Aussie Millions via =4.  In the main sweat thread he posted quite a few times.  This may come back to haunt me, but he seemed fairly level-headed at times.  At one time, when Shaniac got annoyed because he kept saying "Ship it!"when taking down a pot, Gobbo did confess that he realised he was being an ass saying it and stopped doing it.  I thought he conducted his interviews well also.

Don't forget he is young, and probably hangs out with a lot of morons.  From time to time he's going to act like a jerk when he doesn't intend to.

There's no doubting he's a real talent.  He comes from a long line of super-aggressive kids that have made their mint on the internet and are using this technique in the big live tournaments as soon as they are old enough.  I think we're going to see a lot more from this guy.
I agree, love the way he is happy to take on Hansen though lol. Seems over cocky but he's young, looks like he has the play to make it big. He will make billions from sponsorship, has about 4.2 acres of logo room, and that's just his left arm...

Well, he has a fair bit of growing up to do.  Calling people retards is very impressive.

pretty common in the USA, unfortunately, thankfully 'spastic' has gone out of fashion in the UK.
Is the vid for this tourney on Youtube yet, cannot seem to find?
