The Ten Smartest Poker Players

[Mason Malmuth]

Hi Mikey:

At various times I have talked to seven of those on the list about writing. So far only the NPA has taken the bait. (By the way, we should have two more books by him this coming year.)

Best wishes,
Mason

Call me ignorant, but who is William Chen?

[Vince Lepore]

So Mason, are you number 11?

I'm willing to bet that Tom Weideman isn't as smart as Gus Hansen.

David,

Do you think that these SMART players will appreciate that you pointed out to their not so smart opponents just how smart they are? You may consider this just... a dumb question.

Vince,

Smart opponents will not need David's advice.

Fish will not take David's advice.

Im sure I am FAR FAR FAR less qualified than David but 2 people who I would choose to inlclude is DeKniff and Luske.

Dekniff in the scant footage that ive seen has played almost picture perfect in NLH tourney final tables situations. And Luske usually knows where he is at in a hand...though his decisions sometimes seem reckless.

As for Boyd Im conitnuall shocked at how impressed people are by how precoscious "scholastically" he was. The facts are the guy went to like SW mizzou at 13-4....I had a 1320 on my Psat at that same age well over avg there...Im pretty sure I could have handled 4-5 classes in the humanitites there..no big deal. Stanford @ 13 im impressed SW Missouri im just questioning his mom's decision to send him to college.

David, where would Tommy Angelo rank on your list?
