Question for Paul P

rwesty · #1 03-28-2005, 09:12 PM

I was playing limit Hold'em on Full Tilt a while ago on a table where you and Jennifer Harman were sitting. For some reason you and Jennifer were talking about her playing every hand preflop. I said that she should do this right now and you said something to the affect of "No, you don't want that". I don't see how I could not want that as it would clearly be a -EV (or at least less +EV) situation for her.

I didn't think much of it until I saw that you made David Sklansky's top 10 smartest poker players list. Is this enough of a mistake for David's list to be revised? I'm guessing it just wasn't meant to be taken literally, but if you actually meant this, do you have a reason?

Why would one statement, even if it were incorrect, knock him off the list?

That was a joke, probably a bad one.

Right...

Maybe because Jennifer is better than you.

I think I could beat a full table of 9 Jennifer Harman's in limit Hold'em individually playing all of their cards preflop.

It was not a joke because a statement couldn't take him off. One statement could take him off the list, depending on how close #11 is. He's at #10. It was a joke because David's not going to revise his list.

What's less funny, my joke or the replies? (After "not probably", which was funny.)
