He's not nitty. The only reason he got that stupid image was because he played tight against the maniacs on HSP and Hellmuth called him a nit.

i think he seems very nitty because he acts very slow and just bores people by it, unlike durrrr or fullflush.

also he is game selecting and stops playing after losing few buy-ins, same thing with the Dang brothers. but the thing is high stakes poker is dead and they are happy with their 7-10 million dollars.

This. Maybe played nitty on TV for meta-game purposes, although this kind of screwed him over in the and probably the reason he hasn't been invited back.

So if you appear on 2 episodes of HSP and don't get involved in a big pot you're a nit?

What nitty play did he make on the show that seemed out of normal? There was the QQ he didn't cbet on a KXX ddd with no d in his hand board with like 5 players to the flop....omg so nitty!

I read a article in the UK poker magazine about him that a few months before the wsop 2009 that he had a 1million+ swing online, and his bankroll was about 800k, how can he still afford to play at these nosebleed stakes,
