Seriously. Does he even have a Hendon Mob Page (http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=45538) ?

I didn't think so.

No big deal, I'm in there and I wouldn't want to play against him.

Ah, because the best players in the world are the tournament players. Just ask Barry G.

Fame is the joke - not the person.

I have no idea how good shainiac is, but I'm not sure El D will pony up 10k to play vs just anybody, but I may be wrong.

That said, it seems his value is just as high if not higher as a mentor/coach and clear opinion as it is as a poker player. I don't care to see him at my table, but I also didn't run from him when I have. Then again, I played 6 hours of 2-4 handed 25-50 NL with Tom Keller and Prahlad Friedman one night, so my game selection is less than stellar. I certainly wouldn't put MY 10k up versus him,(especially since I don't have it right now....).

Long as you don't rankle him, or he's not already pre-rankled or feeling mischievous, El D is about the best consistent advice you will see on these pages.

el d's fame came from his really solid HUSH advice (as in, like, go to the archies and read, dummy) and his reputation from always having the best and most realistic (and honest) opinions in OOT

Honestly, it's not a very flattering picture.

After reading the first 10ish responses, I think you way over-estimated your audience. (I thought this was hillarious, though. Also, several of the responses.)

Sorry for the thread hijack, but I don't think that you are the real Jason, something doesn't smell right with your 9 posts.

I think you're onto something there. Plus there's no strassa2 at the end.

They call me that around the Manor because I retreat to my cave to play. It's annoying because I'm a social person. (Gollum falsetto) "Give me your money."

Screw fame, El Diablo is trendy

How trendy? El Diablo's so trendy, that when he goes jogging, he wears a head-band on his PENIS!!

08-23-2005, 10:27 AM

I guess I don't really get it. What does being trendy have to do with wearing a headband on one's penis?. . .

08-23-2005, 10:34 AM
Well, headbands are kind of trendy

Who is El Diablo? I extend an open invitation for him to come to the big game.
