Devilfish Fighting to Stay Afloat

Whenever I make the ascent up to the second level, Devilfish always seems to be involved in the action: seeing flops, winking at opponents, making comments, and generally making his presence felt.

In his latest couple of encounters, he has tasted both victory and loss. First I saw him raise preflop then fold to a bet on a king high flop. "Show us tens?" he requested. His opponent didn't oblige. Then he found himself in a three-way pot with circa 1,000 in the middle, but managed to take it down by moving all in for 1,500 on the {J-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{K-Clubs} flop. "Taxi!" he joked as he flung in three 500 chips.

He doesn't have many chips, but like a fish out of water, he's flapping around, gasping for air and trying desperately to stay alive.
