"The Greasy Cheat"- This Auckland skycity poker pro (who has been caught cheating but has been allowed back at the casino), with the gelled back hair and imposing size, likes to verbally abuse his opponents into calling his raises. He gets paid off by players, who dont like him, trying to bust him out and manages to bluff others who show him too much respect.infrared marked cards


"The Chinese Teddy Bear"- This young asian poker player, with no known job and seemingly unlimited bankroll, plays poker with such a reckless style that his massive swings seems suicidal. Although a very good player, other poker players invite him to play at their tables because of the action he brings.

"The Foul mouthed Drunk"- This self-proclaimed NZ's best tournament poker player is probably one of the biggest cash game donkeys at the casino. He can be mildly amusing or incredibly offensive, when he's drunk and playing poker.
