Anyone who watches pool will know who i mean, he's an American Pool player thats verging on the men with white coats and a big net coming to get him.
Seems any match he's in these days he picks a person in the crowd to argue with, claiming that if theyre in his line of sight theyre moving when hes down on the shot (even when theyre not). Runs around the table claiming his opponent is getting lucky, has smashed cues off the ground in matches. Apparently in one Mosconi cup he threatened Ronnnie O Sullivans mother who was in attendance. He's actually had people removed from matches for claiming theyre moving on his shot when theyre not, or just by starting arguments with them.
He just seems to (early on in a match) put excuses in place that he can fall back on later if he gets beat. Also seems to be a complete mug for any marketing gimmick that he picks up on, one year he was wearing yellow tinted glasses that was claimed by the manufacturer to help concentration, lately he's been playing while wearing ear plugs and a pair of ear guards you would wear at the shooting range, yet claims he can still hear people in the audience whispering.
Among his other gimmicks present and past are the following:
70 inch 30 oz cue (the length is legit not sure about the weight)
Pieces of card wrapped in elastoplast which he puts on his fingers to get more height on some shots, (we're talking max of 2mm difference here).
Weights on his arms, legs, ass to "help him stay down on the shot".
Go to about 1 hour 21 mins mark in this video for a small taste of how he acts.
The guys just ****ing nuts, im amazed he hasn't got a smack from a spectator or opponent outside after the match.
