Have you guys seen how he reacted to free coaching offers before? He was insulted. When people tell him things like "Hey you could get even better with coaching," he interprets that to mean "You suck at poker so go get a coach you fish." Your posts look like they are saying he isn't good enough the way he is. Some people get really insulted by that.
He acted like coaching was only for beginners. People told him that even the best in poker, sports, etc. will get coaching but he never responded to that. He just doesn't want coaching and that's his decision to make, not ours.
I was really shocked he played 100 hours after he fell behind at first. But he was determined to get it done. That might be the most determined I've ever seen him look so far. I think people are overreacting to the results though, even if he might have played better poker in those 100 hours. He clearly was on a major heater and he has huge swings so he was going to win big at some point. On the bright side, he is still up since coming to Vegas and maybe I underestimated him.
He said he might talk about some things he learned after doing this challenge and I'm curious to see what he has to say.
