I think his hole game is to confuse his opponent by talking so much he doesn't let them think. He will have to do bluffs the same way to balance his range which will be difficult, otherwise his success will be very short-lived.

I don’t typically comment, but Dwan’s overall stronger ability and lengthy history in the game (vs top competition) should have elicited a quicker fold…however I don’t mind the verbal interaction Dwan has because Tom is superior in utilizing such info to summarize a correct decision. I have no ‘love nor hate’ for Persson, but it’s clearer than it looks (this particular hand and others): he’s a glaring amateur that’s been given his ‘15 minutes of fame’/spotlight. This behavior isn’t new and some of his antics (unfortunately) will be a copycat blueprint to other amateurs or new players. IMO, Tom had this figured out long before he decided to actually muck and just milked Persson for any info (verbal, physical, etc) he could soak for future confrontations (and other pros at the table certainly noticed for their benefit as well).
