Re: I\'ve Read Barry\'s Book
Okay, so next time somebody's life is at risk and I know how they can be helped, I'll remember to keep quiet as to not offend them.
As far as the lack of clinical studies, nobody is going to promote research that will put themselves out of business. Finally, for those complaining that this discussion is off-topic, sometimes things are a bit more important than sticking to a topic. Have some compassion and you might realize that. Anyways, I've said all I needed to say and have talked to Felicia privately, so everyone go back to the poker talk instead of these off-topic posts which are apparently so disruptive.

Re: I\'ve Read Barry\'s Book
I've been talking to "questionable" people I know - seeing how easy it is to get marijuana - thinking IF she wanted (and she'd probably say no) - we could hook her up - I guess it really helps with that Nausea after Chemo...
No idea how I'd get it to her though without driving down - that goddamn Federal Lawbreaking just doesn't appeal to me - hopefully someone can hook her up if she wants in in Vegas - [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] of course, it goes without saying I'm rooting 110% for ya. pax RB

Re: I\'ve Read Barry\'s Book
I'll say it again because I think you missed the point. - sharing your education is good (and I applaud that - your original post was great), forcing it down her throat is bad (your follow up post).

Re: I\'ve Read Barry\'s Book
alas, the common mentality of the 2+2 player today isn't about bettering himself to the 200/400 game.
it's about 8 tabling 3/6 Party Poker games and using automated tools to gather statistics on other players - (preferably using someone else's predefined standards) - all while maintaining enough accounts that bonuses can be easily accrued/withdrawn/accrued again. the concept of attempting to better one's self at the game has pretty much gone in the toilet on many of the boards...I keep hoping for a commentary from you or Mason on it. Such actities are clearly +EV in the short term, but I don't see how they could be long term for one's game. but I have ordered Barry's book - I hate Party Poker anyways... [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] - I never play their 3/6 games. RB

Let me say again I have no clue about the topic, but if I did I would sure as hell make the same reply. Someone thinking I was rude would be the least of my concerns. It sounds to me like he means well and he thinks he knows what he is talking about so his post should be commended, not looked down upon - whether he is correct or not. (Though if he is incorrect someone should probably reply telling him to make sure he knows what he is talking about when he throws his comments in to an issue this important)

Re: I\'ve Read Barry\'s Book
I don't mean to be crass, but that is an insufficient sample size.
I'm with TT on this one. Offer someone the information once, just so that they are aware of it, and then let them make their own decision.

"Thanks everyone, for reading, and for thinking of me."
If the good thoughts of people who know you can have a positive effect, you're certainly going to be fine, becasue everyon who knows you thinks the world of you.
