PokerPlayer talks to poker legend and all round nice guy Norman Chad
Hi Norman, what puts you on tilt?
Anybody at the poker table who puts everyone in a bad mood.
Would you rather be lucky or good?
I’m not good so I’d have to be lucky.
Phil Hellmuth is…
Great for me, great for television, great for poker and great for America.
Blondes or brunettes?
Both groups reject me, so I’ll try a redhead.
What superhero power would you have and why?
For the phone not to ring after 7pm.
Most embarrassing moment of your life?
My birth. It was a caesarean, I wasn’t planned and coming into this world was as embarrassing as it gets.
If the world ended tomorrow I would…
I’d get a Super Fudge Chunk ice cream from Ben and Jerry’s. I’d want one good scoop before we were gone.
Describe yourself in three words.
Not good looking.
What five things would you take to a desert island?
A subscription to the New York Times, my TiVo, a good deli, a bowling alley, and, on a good day,
my wife.
Who would you play you in the film of your life?
Paul Giamatti. He’s not a heartthrob, and he’s a little down on life.
What animal would you be and why?
A Siberian husky. Two of my top ten relationships in life were with dogs.
Would you rather fight 50 duck-sized horses, or one horse-sized duck?
I’d walk away both times. Put nine handcuffed Franciscan monks in front of me and I still couldn’t beat them.
