Can DSklansky beat the $4/8k
Can DS beat the $4/8k mixed game for at least .5 BB per hour if he played it whenever it was available? (5 hours every day for a 200/365 days a year)

Re: Can DSklansky beat the $4/8k
Does it matter? And can anyone here actually say could evaluate both his play and the 4k/8k game enough to know?

I doubt it, but I'm sure David would tell you differently.

I don't think David has the roll to play the game anyway, and, not having the roll, he probably doesn't have the resolve to ride the swings in the 4k/8k game either. Very few people do. Also, david's game selection is obviously good enough that he would avoid the game in the first place. |

[/ QUOTE ] Yep, that's why he makes a living at poker, although playing at it's highest level he would not fare all that well. It's nothing against David, I'd just say maybe 10-15 at the most in the world can beat that game (and numbers 6-15 would probably be better off playing a softer game). |

What is your rating of the skill of the regular players in this game as compared to the best players beating 300-600ish mixed games? |

Re: Can DSklansky beat the $4/8k
david should openly tell you that he cannot beat the 4/8k game with its regular lineup, and if he thinks that he can then hes not being realistic. you guys are ridiculous.

[/ QUOTE ] david sklansky is a pimp and wrote what i (and many of you here, i'm sure) consider to be the best and most comprehensive poker book ever written. but he has no wsop victories, no wsop braclets, and no indication of trying to play and beat the hardest games in vegas. as doyle said in ss1, some people are teachers- which doesn't make him a bad player, but makes this poll the stupidest thing i've seen in a week. in my opinion, this game is more of a pissing contest between some of the worlds best. stealthcow- |

Re: Can DSklansky beat the $4/8k
I don't think anyone (ie the best poker player in the world) can beat the 4/8k mixed game for .5 BB an hour. DS might be able to break even or beat the game, but I really doubt he can beat it for .5 BB an hour.
