Bruce Buffer

"...plays poker like an ultimate fighter battles –- very aggressive, no mercy, do or die. I’m not gonna let Bruce intimidate me with his threatening table talk and physical presence, but I am going to give his game respect. Bruce is a part of the “any two cards can win” school and so he’s almost impossible to read. He’s extremely aggressive and loves to bully the table. With his large chip stack, he’s got the ammunition to do it. He has two exploitable weaknesses. One is that he takes bluffs way too far, so if I get the chance to trap him, I’m gonna take it. His second weakness is his poor emotional control. If I sense he’s about to go on tilt, I’m gonna try to push him over the edge. That should be fun. Bruce told me during the last break that I’m overrated."
