Elmo head
 
Does anyone know the name of the guy wearing the Elmo head and if he's still in?

It was X-22..

Which is why the floor didn't object to him wearing it.

LOL.. That's too much!! Hahah. Man, How could you even look at that in the middle of a big hand without busting up.

This will probably start a trend.. You'll see all kinds of crazy crap next year.

I saw this dude roll into the ME area with a big ass trash bag, wearing a t-shirt a couple of sizes too small and shorts that didn't reach his knee about 45 minutes into the event. I was wondering WTF was going on, Until the Elmo head came out.

I'm envious as I've always wanted to do that with a Cookie Monster head. For me, Cookie represents a more LAGgy image. Elmo's bound to be weak tight.

I assume then that Animal (the drummer on the muppets) would be a Gus Hansen on steroids image??

You can tell he has a strong hand when he rolls his head back and moves his arms wildly.

You can aslo spot a bluff because the sticks under his arms start shaking.

At one point I thought I invented that term. When I was in 4th grade I used it alot. Then I have seen it many times while posting on 2+2 which makes me wonder if I made it up or copied it.

I saw him licking his lips and looking like a psychopath on the WPT once. I cringed so much I had to change the channel. It was good that he finally proved that someone with downs can do anything a normal person can though

But really, weirdest person I've ever seen on TV. Television usually has checks and balances that make every personality on it at least somewhat acceptable but this guy looked like the biggest mess I've ever seen.

Thats what I was thiking. How will they regulate it, after allowing this ?

I can see people in Darth Vader/Scream/any other crazy masked [censored] costumes next year.

This would be -EV to the game I think, turning it into a circus IMO.

It might be balanced by the fact that he has to wear that thing for fourteen hours straight, presumably without drinks if he intends to hide his identity.

Oh God, from the looks of him he uses that costume for his special 'no girls allowed' birthday parties

i saw paul magriel at the bay 101 ppt event, i believe he made it to the final table, but when i was watching there were 3 tables left and the only other player i remember being alive was hoyt corkins. x-22 seemed like a nice guy. and yes, the elmo head is him, you can tell, hes wearing the same shirt in the elmo picture as in the cardplayer picture. looks like a "20th annual nevada backgammon championship" shirt. bad ass.

Nope, X-22 is playing Day 2, so he's not Elmo.

Elmo Head man is awesome. We have a new answer to the question of which player winning the world championship would be 'the best for poker'

Any one got a chip count for Elmo?

Re: Elmo head
 
If it's Daniel Carrar, then he must have busted out on Day 1, since he didn't make the Day 2 chip count list.
