FWIW, DS also published his tournament "system" and stated that he felt the no limit aspect of NLHE took away much of the advantage of skilled players. He advocated a round-robin type match (a la HOSE HORSE, etc.) to determine the world poker champion.

That isn't what round-robin means.

I realize that, but I was trying to find a succinct way to describe a rotating-game match and that metephor seemd to fit. After I typed it I realized it might be miscontrued so I added the "a la hose, horse" bit in hopes of clarifying. A ha! I just said what I originally tried to say. Let me try again.

I saw a thread about this a while ago in DS book Tournament Poker, he said there was an unknown player a few years ago that finished second using a similar method, did anyone nail down who that was? I was thinking it was the guy that finished behind Scotty Nguyen in 98? any thoughts? Kevin McBride, right?
