Secondly, considering the fact that this guy has never been on television before, was encouraged to be boisterous by ESPN, and was obviously very excited to be where he was with the opportunity to make that kind of $$$, to come off badly under those circumstances is hardly something that should be held against him

Yes, it is something that should be held against him. When the producers tell the players that they shouldn't be shy, most people understand what that means. If you've never watched televized poker or for some other reason don't understand the kind of things that play well on tv and which don't, your best best is to sit there and shut the hell up. Since Todd chose not to, he deserves what's coming his way.

Also, where did Paul call Peter "likely the best limit hold'em player in the world." I don't see it.

Your post reads as if it was written by a 15-year-old.
