Paul Phillips--thank you

[J.Brown]

I think all of us here at 2+2 should say thank you to Paul P. for posting here.

He has nothing but insightful, well thought out, and informative things to say and is an unbelievable asset to this forum and poker community.

Anyway thanks for posting and making this a better place to visit everyday.

cheers--J.Brown

but just so we're clear -

if his migration here brings all the RGP trolls to follow, I'm gonna take him and put him in a burning wicker man to sacrifice to appease the gods and drive away the demons...

just so we're clear

I've only seen him on TV a few times, but I like how they try to show him bluffing vs. Phil Laak in the promos for the website - and if you look closely they have different chips from different casinos in front of them....LOL

I am glad Paul and Barry G. are choosing this one.

Dude, if you haven't noticed the trolls have migrating in flocks prior to the arrival of Paul Phillips.

But, I do want to also thank Paul, Barry, Annie Duke and any others that offer their valuable insight to these forums.

Paul is a funny guy, he has guts to say things publicly that most pros would never dream of, I'm glad he is here.

[J.Brown]

Amen.

I won't lie to you (and it's no secret anyway) I have mixed feelings about posting here. I happened to have some bored writing time the last few days and threw some of it this way. I stopped posting to rgp because I had begun drawing the attention of that unfortunate brand of lowlife which is not satisfied with drooling a few insults. Living with a high profile is not always fair -- it only takes one or two determined worms to cause anyone difficulties.

I left rgp because that swung the good/bad ratio past the fulcrum point, and I'll admit that it was going downhill fast then and it's as lame now as it's ever been in its entire existence. Still, I much prefer rgp-as-it-once-was to twoplustwo-as-it-is for a lot of reasons, some philosophical (e.g. I don't like moderation without accountability), some practical (e.g. the twoplustwo interface is horrible compared to a good usenet client).

My blog will remain my primary outlet, but I'll probably keep posting here sometimes as long as I don't run afoul of the eye in the sky. If they ever yank one of my posts, it's the door for me.

Paul Phillips is a condescending prick, I don't care if he never posts on here again...

[ncskiier]

F-you bud. An opinion like that should be kept to yourself. Is he hurting you by posting here? Paul this moron is in the minority. Thanks again.

Paul,

I just gotta say thanks for even sharing your blog (and your 18 posts). It's always nice to delve into the minds of the more successful business and poker minds, yours being no different.

And I really do mean that, too. It puts a face and a smile on guys you look up to on posters and TV commercials. Up-and-comers like me really appreciate that. It helps grow the game.
