 Poot in many ways is the "sole survivor", and the foil to the heavy casualties suffered particularly by Barksdale's organization.This is despite the fact that he survives being shot at three times, more times than any other character except Omar Little.Poot distinguishes himself from the other two remaining survivors, Slim Charles and Dennis "Cutty" Wise, as the only low-level player who is able to completely move away from drug trade after the organization's collapse.
