NO-NONSENSE POKER PURIST



This player is all business. He doesn't go in for any funny business with sunglasses, headphones, or funny hats. No bells and whistles for this guy. He came to play poker, damnit, and that' s just what he's going to do. Deal the cards and let's get playing!

WAAAAAAY TOO RELAXED GUY



Ok, this player would be the complete opposite of the poker purist. Maybe that's his strategy: to make the other players think he's being lolled into a coma, then BAM, he throws down a Royal Flush.

A team of masseuses are on loan via a masseuse company based in L.A. They follow the poker tour around the world, providing relaxed shoulders for players worldwide.

"Some player are superstitious. Sometimes they blame us when they lose. Sometimes they blame the dealer," the head masseuse explains.

"It's fun when you're good luck. It's not fun when you're bad luck!"

GOOD LUCK GIRLFRIEND GUY



This poker player shouldn't be confused with Waaaay Too Relaxed Guy. This type of player keeps his girlfriend standing close by for good luck. She always looks slightly bored and left with such options as:

-Putting her hand on his shoulder.
-Standing by him.
or
-Dabbling into the masseuse terrain, and providing a neck massage.

WOMAN



Yes, "a woman" is one of the several types of players you'll find at the Euro Poker Tour. Though this woman would also fall under the poker playing arch-type of: WOMAN WITH HEADPHONES AND HAT. And a fine hat is is. We tend to think it must be her big furry lucky good-luck mojo hat. Being this is Vanessa Rousso, and ranks among the top five women in poker history, I think she knows what she's doing in terms of headwear.

FORMER VIDEO GAME NERD



Yes, this type of player has made the leap from Warcraft to online poker. It requires the same amount of time online huddled in your mom's basement, so why not make big bucks while you're at it?
