Daniel, why not offer to play them for a sum they can afford instead of waving your money around in dick waving contest? Are you really that shallow?

Are you not aware of kiddie pools and why you are supposed to get out of them?

Daniel has gotten out of the kiddie pool and is making moves, you can't expect him to only fill up his brand new Wynn pool with the lesser amount of water tha... yeah, I suck at analogies.

It is important to understand that the terms I said I would agree to were not actually made as a challenge to Daniel. Rather they were to counter any perception that I consider myself a substantial underdog to the ultra high players and would avoid them at any cost. Keep in mind I would not take 11-10 on a 100K as a 52% shot.

But again for the record, if Daniel is that anxious to play me in a way that the Bellagio won't particularly mind, I will go on record as saying that I will risk my own money in the following three ways:

Hi Lo Regular getting 33,000 to 30,000 odds

Hi Lo 8/B getting 23,500 to 20,000 odds

Hi Lo 8/B getting 50,000 to 40,000 odds.

To get up to his 100,000 threshhold, someone would have to take a piece of me or the odds would have to be sweetened.

Considering the fact that you choose the game, your insistance on "odds" is embarrassing at best. Well, given your huge ego.

Daniel:

By the way, I'm literally crushed with publishing work, Harrington on Hold 'em, Volume II is top priority at the moment. It will be followed by other important books including Theory and Practice of No Limit Hold 'em by David Sklansky and Ed Miller. So I'll only be in Wynn occasionally the next couple of months.

Hi TransientR:

A lot of the proof reading has to do with exactly the way I want the final type setting to look. That just can't be farmed out.

Best wishes,
Mason

Ah, I thought that might be the reason. I've done my share of proofreading, so I understand the work/concentration involved.

I, like many others, are looking forward to this book. I'm sure I won't be disappointed.

Daniel, you strike me as a great poker player and an even better person, but seriously drop the ego.

I truly admire and respect you, but you've been acting like a total weenie lately.

A HUGE fan,
Brian.

Keep in mind that even if Daniel is putting up all the money he is actually getting laid an indirect price because of the Wynn factor. So it is right for him to play if the game is even or if he is a slight dog. Not so for his challengers. They either have to be a definite favorite or get a moderate spot to have the same type of good bet that Daniel gets.
