Default Guy shaking on purpose at the WSOP

Did he really think he was going to foul Ivy? Ivy's response was pure pro.

"Just stop it"

I have had people do that stuff in a casino to me where they will shake and it be blatantly obvious they are doing it on purpose. I don't understand the logic in this at all unless the player is really bad.

My favorite was last time I was playing in Tunica, everytime this guy had the nuts he would lean over like he couldn't see the board and look at his cards like he didn't like them. What was funny is that he could read the board fine when he didn't hit.

first episode. the guy was shaking, not like he was scared or had a biggie, but more like he had parkinsons... slow elaborate shakes... it was weak.

the second ivey folded, he stopped.

when I go to the wsop, the only thing Im gonna do is when I put my opponenet to a decision, instead of staring like I've lost my doggy, Im gonna smile at him. every time. it doesnt seem like anyone does that.

but this shaking crap was weird.

honestly, I dont care about being on tv, I just wanna do it to try and confuse opponents.

Im kinda sick of watching anyone who puts his opponent to a decision stare off gazing at the felt or something...

however against players I know are good, Im totally retreating into the jesus pose.
