He just proves what me and my buddy have been saying for awhile now. The game of hold em does not take long to learn, the more tourneys you play in the better your chances are of winning. Once you acquire the skills, you can compete with ANYONE, as long as you can come up with the money to play as Affleck obviously can. Bottom line: quit idolizing these bozos on tv. They are not the superstars that people perceive them to be.
