Re: Sklansky has 111K after day one
Harrington on Hold 'em is excellent - I'm not sure where I'd put it, but it would be up there, but not in the top 3.
SuperSystem 1 or 2 cannot be put in the same league as a bulk of the 2+2 books. Someone can easily make a case why TOP is #1, SSH #2, and HEPFAP #3 (or any combination thereof amongst the three) but I don't believe a rational argument can be presented that puts any other book in the top 3.

I don't think anyone is tainting his accomplishments. They are just joking around about how often he's gotten them on tv lately. AA's are a good thing!

Re: Sklansky has 111K after day one
Btw, they started today and David was at the softest table in the tourney. Didn't recognize one face except fpr Galen kester or kestler. He is a big pot limit live player. The rest looked very clueless. Like a bunch of tourists in vegas for the weekend for a little poker fun! The game either brok or moved shortly therafter though.

Re: Sklansky has 111K after day one
from http://www.pokerwire.com/
19 David Sklansky $ 130,000 ... of course I'm not sure how accurate that is: 75 Daniel Negreanu $ 50,000 . . . 93 Daniel Negreanu $ 30,000

I realize people like to joke and I also realize that David did get aces a disproportionate number of times in the episode in question, but things like that happen at some point to everyone. Certainly all of his past and future accomplishments shouldn't be tainted by the fact that one day at one event he got more than a normal share of a premium holding. Let's not forget that at the end of the day the man had a hand in writing all three of the best poker books of all time (TOP, HEPFAP, and SSH). Barron Vangor Toth www.BarronVangorToth.com [/ QUOTE ] Wow, settle down. I wasn't trying to discredit his accomplishments or ability, whatsoever. [ QUOTE ] I don't think anyone is tainting his accomplishments. They are just joking around about how often he's gotten them on tv lately. AA's are a good thing! [/ QUOTE ] Correct.
