The vast majority of poker players are quiet, thoughtful types, generally trying to avoid showing a glimpse of their personality at the table for fear of giving away information to their opponents.

Lucien Cohen is not one of these people.

The Frenchman who won this event back in Season 7 (and finished 28th here last year) is well known for his loud, somewhat abrasive, style - that and the fact he tends to bring a stuffed rat with him to tournaments.

Expect, either today or some point this week, some mass gesticulating and shouting in French after a huge pot, usually culminating with Cohen scooping the chips.
