I'm a huge fan of yours, and Simon may have been wrong, but either you or the ESPN writer did him a great disservice.

"great"? c'mon. i think we're blowing this a little out of proportion. this is a minor disservice at best.

I am not sure it's worth arguing about, but let's see:

- And ESPN article is written about it ... we ain't talking Jessee May ... we're talking ESP frickin N
- The next day in the tournament the tournament director comes up to you and tells you people have been complaining and you have to defend yourself instead of concentrating on winning
- Barry is very respected in the poker world which means most people are going to believe him at first, even though it now appears to have been way overstated
- people are theatening to kick his teeth in (per Barry's post)
- his daughter was crying and afraid (per Barry's post)

Not to mention he has to deal with nits like us in the 2+2 WPT forum, and Phil Phillips weighs in against him.

On second thought, I will argue with you ... it was a great disservice. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
