DeucesCracked has the first of a film series available detailing the lives of online players. The first one is on Zeebo, a fairly high profile 2p2er, and has cameos by Phil Galfond (aka Jman28/OMGClayAiken), Jay Rosenkrantz (aka pr1nnyraid) and many others. The production values are very good and I certainly think it's worth watching. You can find it here:

It's about a half hour long, but definitely worth watching. I feel a lot of valid points regarding the lifestyle of an online pro were made, though personally I think I'm a little less "eccentric" than Zeebo. To be fair however, I'd probably kill for that collection of Simpsons action figures he has.
As I recently finished playing Cross Edge, a game featuring characters from many different RPG franchises, I suppose it's an interesting coincidence that I mentioned Krantz in this post. His screen name of pr1nnyraid is a reference to Prinny Raid, an attack used by Etna (who appears in all three Disgaea games and Cross Edge, among others) which launches a barrage of explosive Prinnies at the target. Given how long Krantz has been around, I imagine he was playing through the original Disgaea upon release when he registered at Full Tilt. Being well versed in geek culture is awesome.
So what is a Prinny you ask? They look like this, and explode on impact:
I recently ordered a plush Prinny, and while I'll tell people it's for my girlfriend (who is actually fond of Prinnies) she knows the truth. It's for me!
Oh yeah, I ran abhorrently bad on Monday which resulted in a nasty downswing. Tuesday was better. 20k USD month one time please?
