"If you saw the clip it is obvious that the guy was crushed by this"

My experience and comments were directed to live games, where the typical "guesser" likely gives up much more information about himself and his play that he gets, simply by formulating the question. Such "guessing" is pretty well correlated with other table behaviors underscoring an infatuation with televised poker, which means tournaments, which may often mean NOT cash games.

Just my observations, ...

I have nothing against table talk really. The cash games here in Costa Rica have some players of Marcel's caliber, but the guys who habitually make that sort of in-action guess are not those better cash players. There is a lot of post-hand discussion among some really good players when cards are shown down. The discussion quality is very high and there are a lot of lessons learned if you pay attention.
