Dave Henry ,pound for pound unbeatable in the upright most muscular

tarek badly needs to come in harder in order to get a good placing

i think Dennis James will win this Show no matter his midsection sucks
and i doubt any of the newcomers will have a heavy impact

flex lewis is way to short in my opinion

I guess you are right.

Poker role models can teach our youth all the joys and benefits of gambling-away savings, homes, food money and your mammie's wedding ring.

An award winning plan.

well, anyone who got cleaned out at a poker table once, whether it be 5 bucks or 50,000 will try to get better at it.  if you know what you're doing in poker, it's no longer gambling.

not to sound like the cast of rounders, but why do the same 5 people make the final table every year?

yes, there's a negative side to poker playing.  i personally don't play myself.  but even if you're a world champion bodybuilder who never loses, you're still an embarassment to society.   let's not mention the 3rd tier bodybuilders or assholes who spend 10,000 to "compete" at the local high school show.

Not even a calculated risk. Gambling is gambling...unless you know how to cheat.
