Re: mason vs. sklansky

Hi Greg:

The actual answer to this is that Mat Sklansky now runs the company. So both David and I have to be nice to him.

Hi QTip:

I have problems with it. While Bob Ciaffone is an honest person and would certainly never ask a student to do this as a form of advertising, we also have problems with his limit hold 'em...

Re: Variance in different forms of poker

Hi Aaron:

Your variance at no limit almost always has to be higher due to the fact that you win or lose a very large pot every now and then. However, if you're an excellent player, this is more...
