As best I can tell, he drinks like a fish and has about thousand moves. He usually stacks his chips in uneven stacks in a deliberately unkempt manner. He sweats all the time. He plays slowly. He cofeehouses. He twitches and drinks. He rechecks cards he knows, then plays a hand without looking at it. He wears a silly-ass hat and takes frequent breaks to smoke long, thin cigarettes. He's a frequent raiser but mucks to big moves behind him. He's a nit. And he types in ALL-CAPS.

I don't mind playing against him except that he slows play waaaaaaay down. I was trapped at a table with him and Men when both were drinking and I thought I was going to die of frustration. Once he watches some tape of Tiffany Williamson, I suspect he'll start checking HIS nails, too.

But I don't think he had nine tackles for losses in 1995.

This is a very good descritption of ol' Jim. I really hate playing with him for the reasons you mentioned but also because he talks non stop and just spews nonsense.

I think he is great in small doses.
