He's the original Matador. Unless you've won a WSOP you really can't say anything about his style of play. It has worked for him enough to be a successful pro. Chad makes a great point as well saying that he was the last pro to win it (on a flush and straight draw no less!!!). You have to love Carlos and what hes done for the game. As for him not winning anything lately...the last I heard of Phil Hellmuth was on a Tilt episode. Alot of pros have their spells I'm not saying Carlos is on one but he's certainly not the only superstar missing from the lime light.
