Why do poker players act cool?
 

I watch these guys on espn and most of them act cool with different looks and shit. The spiked out hair guido is the most annoying:1orglaugh

Its a card game your not an athlete or movie star:321GFY

I am going to guess you dont play high limit and have never seen any of them off cam. Most of those pros you see on tv, dress like hobos when they are not on tv.

they've always been personalities who CAN make bank off of more than going "all in".

Because they are cool. My poker nickname is "cool"

Because we are my friend, we just are. :1orglaugh

its supposed to add to the game

plus they're rich from just playing cards...go figure!:winkwink:

You need to be cool to play poker, otherwise it's called steaming and that's not so good...

Well I think it's pretty cool to bank $5 mill/year from something you find funny and exiting everyday.

it's a hard fucking life and when you lose your scrub and everything goes against you, you hate yourself as much as you love yourself when the things are clicking.

Poker is beautiful and I can't make much more than $1.5k/month from it and I play quite a lot and have gained somewhat experience so I do admire they guys who build their roll from the fucking bottom and all the way to the top.
