I enjoyed your piece on personalities. If I was making a casino/poker movie I would include those characters into the shots.

I was looking for the one that fits me, and I'm not in there. It got me thinking how would I describe mine. Here's what I came up with:

THE QUIET GUY: Pleasant but serious. Calculates and follows the game even when not in the pot. Usually leaves with more money then he came with.

You might want to fill out your piece with longer story lines, putting more color and flavor to each personality, etc. Then submit it to a poker magazine like Poker Player Newspaper. I've written three articles for them.
Good luck.

TP and CT:

It's probably a GOOD thing that none of these fit your description. Most of them are vastly sarcastic descriptions of a few of the "usuals" we all tend to see in live casino games.
In fact, I'm pretty sure that 99.9 percent of players don't fall into any of these categories. I'd like to think that if we fall into anything, it might be the "Nice Guy" category, although I know TP well enough to know that he's DEFINITELY a cross between "The Burnout" and "Former Mafia Guy."

haha, yeah, right. I'm closest the the "Nice Guy," but there is a bit of "Mr. Too Cool" and "The Professor" in me, as well. Fortunately, the Professor in me only make an appearance when I'm playing with people I know (and usually when they are learning and trying to get better). I hatre the annoying professor types. I quite like getting into it with them though, so maybe that makes me the Anti-Professor.
