Does the Yahoo community thinks he still likes me?

Yes, he likes you. Probably more than you think. It's just that he has a hard time expressing himself in person. That's why he acts awkward when he's with you and his friends, but online he is very chatty and opens up. Some people are just like that. It may be a confidence issue. Try getting some alone time with him, away from these group outing like poker night and such. I wish you the best and hope things go the way you want them to in life.
