Justin Cohen Looks at his Cards
Justin Cohen Looks at his Cards

Everyone has their own way that they like to look at their cards. Some peel one at a time, others look at them with protection from their chips. Sometimes you'll even see people illegally take them off the table or put them perpendicular and slide out the card from behind without much protection at all. But all in all, people usually look at their cards in ways that have been done a million times before and will be done a million times again.

Well Justin Cohen has his own very distant way of looking at his cards and he does it every single time. We've been calling it "The Swimmer" but it could probably be called "The Prayer", "The Dive", or even "The Touch your Tippy-Toes". Regardless, it is definitely unique to Cohen and with the way he has been running and playing so far this tournament, we don't suggest he changes it any time soon. His chiropractor might disagree though.
