Only name that comes to mind from that time from Italy that was prominent on TV was Dario Minieri. He was hyper-aggressive, and always wore a scarf, and Norman Chad would refer to him as the Harry Potter of poker because of the scarves. Was it him?

Yes, he was it. The candidate gets the full points ;) Thanks!

Does some of the twitch personalities count? If so then yes.

I played in a wsop Circuit event one time against a guy who had won a bracelet event at the WSOP. I can't remember his name, but he was wearing the bracelet at the table and another dude at our table recognized him. Seemed like a nice guy, too.

"Jesus" Chris Ferguson back in the day when he did his bankroll challenge on Full Tilt. I miss those good ole days in the US when we had more than 2 or 3 sites. He was super nice and chatted with the folks at the tables.

I was hoping to play against a well-known player, but unfortunately, we were assigned to different tables in the tournament.

I met a german pro once in an online rebuy mtt (micro stakes)...and he went allin with every hand..so after some time i started calling (only with good hands of course)..and i got his stack about 3 times...he did not care and payed for my chips.
My guess was, he was maximum tilted..but who knows.
I never heard from him again until recently he won a big tornament.
