On top of that, for someone used to reading poker players, someone with Asperger's can almost be so straightforward that you figure it can't be for real. Kind of ironic.
My son has Asperger's Syndrome. They are very hard to read since their expressions do not necessarily fit what they are thinking or feeling. May play to Zev's advantage since they already think he is "off" and unaware that he seems to be able to read them better than they can read him
