He makes me think of a Young Phil Helmuth with a suntan

to me seemed like a good loser but a bad winner. But was probably just a small selection of hands.

I agree. What I was trying to say, but didn't.

Getting your money in with two or four outs or something, then running around shouting "that's how we do it" when you hit the river as if it's the plan all along...sigh.

But, he really handled himself well when he took a beat.

At least, as you point out, on the small number of hands that ESPN chose to show. A lot can be made, either way, of a person in the editing room.

Chino winning is probably good for Poker. It's also wonderful for the pits. Don't know how much of a net positive it will be for Chino himself...
