What happens when you add more fish to the pond? The sharks get fatter and stop fighting over scraps.

The guy is entertaining as hell, if a bit silly, but so what. He's moved into online poker and will hopefully move a bunch of people with him.
While I can't for the life of me figure out how he has the time/money etc. to have put so much time and effort into his youtube personality, give him credit for being wildly successful at whatever he has attempted. This includes poker: while there are many that beat him over 1,000,000 hands, I am sure there are many times more than that who don't.
He may not be the best in the world at poker, but he's done something pretty impressive and may bring 1000s or more into the game.
People bashing him are the same guys who bash the fish in the chat box.
