haha a diplomatic way of saying "compulsive gambler". But they are high class addicts, and most are "functional" unlike Stu Unger. I never understood the thrill of these bets for a high stakes pro, look what they play tourneys and cash games for. That doesn't give them enough buzz?! I never had much respect for those guys, and they are too numerous to mention. Sign of our sick society that the media glamourizes their "fun".I'd rather idolize someone like Jen Harmon, who had the courage to fight a deadly disease and helps defenseless animals
with her charity tourneys.
