Default Re: Reactions of WPT/WSOP Winners

I saw a program once where they mentioned how tightly controlled poker players emotions are. Basically they theorized that poker players clamp down so tightly on their emotions while playing that it takes awhile to let go of them.

From personal experience I would tend to agree. The one live tournament I won I was very calm about it. After a couple nerve wracking hours playing poker, needing more than a few suckouts to get where I was, I was almost as relieved it was over as I was to win the very nice cash prize.
