Default Did Sklansky say he Could have won a Nobel?

I think that I just heard David say that he believes that he could have won a Nobel Prize? No he wouldn't have said that on National TV. Or would he?

Sklansky is a really smart guy, but his retarded overconfidence involving his own intelligence is enough to make him stupid.

Apparently no company has taken him up on his offer to work for them in 22+ years. Read The Biggest Game in Town to see what I'm talking about.

page 146.

Obviously Sklansky makes more money playing poker, but I thought it was funny reading that and knowing when it was written.

Yeah, he SEEMS like the tempermental genius who cannot be troubled with the tiny things in life like humility or diplomacy.

Think of that Beautiful Mind guy, without the Nobel Prize.
