Default Re: Mat Sklansky Appreciation Haiku Contest

The Fox play-by-play guy, Chris Rose, is wrong (I think).

We had the same discussion on the WPT forum when Vince Van Patten was saing it the same way on the WPT 'poker by the book' episode.

A couple 2+2'ers who say they know David confirmed that it is just two syllables (that he introduced HIMSELF that way I believe).


Konik says it with 2 syllables I believe...as does Sexton.


I'm not really sure why Chris and Vince say Skuh-lan-skee.


Chris is a friend of mine from back in the day (college and a little post-college).
If I ever happen across him again I might ask him about the 'skuh-lan-skee' thing.
