...made the environment opportune for learned players like himself, Ian says. More than 75 percent of players are losers, and, according to Ian, less than 10 percent of players play mathematically—in essence, fundamental mistakes that can be eliminated with simple instruction pervade the amateur scene. “Most people don’t read books, as far as I can tell,” he muses. If Ian were to give a relatively intelligent beginner a book to read over the weekend and hold a couple one-on-one sessions, he says, the student would...
Hawrilenko says that there are plenty of low-key intellectual players like himself, but the flamboyant, self-described “high rollers” tend to get more camera time, fueling a media image of a scene of excess, debauchery, and ballooning egos. “My friends and I, we laugh at these guys.

Puck completely disregards Will's mash-up assignment, but if it helps a further another love rectangle, then sure, why not. Also, Santana’s look of disgust is pure gold. Quinn’s shell-shock, not so much...
