let's talk some more about sku-lan-sky folding ak with position.

Yeah, Caro is a champ. Too bad no one plays draw anymore. I would really like to watch him play that! I am at school right now and don't have the Travel Channel. Any updates? I just wanna see Sklansky in action. I think from reading all the books that I think he is some sort of mythical creature!

I was yelling at the TV. The whole table is playing passive, kind of strange.

TheShootah · #14 02-23-2005, 11:01 PM

How is Hellmuth doing? What are the relative standings?

Caro's great. He should get a free entry to every final table if only for his amusing banter (doesn't hurt that he's a darn good player, too).

I was half hoping he would go out first to see how he would do announcing.

I've been watching this, and sitting next to Hellmuth must have been torture. I've seen him turn to Sklansky at least 1000 times so far and say "So, what's the math on this?" And Sklansky smiles and obliges, saying 3:1, or 53 / 47, or whatever, and a little piece of him dies inside, I'm sure.

People must do this to him ALL the time. What a nightmare.

i stopped watching 50 minutes in so the tivo could get ahead (hate commercials hate commercials). that was 30 minutes ago. at the time, hellmyoooth had about 500k of the 1.5million at the table. sklansky and tj here about second with 300 or so. sexton had busted out.

Now would be a good time for them to throw VVP out and give Caro his seat...
