David Sklansky - The man behind the books.

I don't think I need to say anything, other than to let the man himself explain.

So what do people think of Mr. Sklansky, the Godfather of Poker theory???

I don't know if anyone else is reading the new Sklansky forum on 2+2 but I love it, some really good discussions.

Some more little bits later in the thread incase people don't get all the way through it...

I understand and I sympathize with what you are going through since I burst your bubble. Luckily though there are TRUE stories about me that should titulate you at least as much. How bout this one:

Five years ago I met a twenty year old girl online. She moved in with me for eight months. Until the police knocked on my door. She was a sixteen year old runaway. Oops. But that's not all. After she was arrested and I convinced everybody that I had been hoodwinked, (Thirty people, including Mason and his wife could testify that I was out numerous times in public with her so I wasn't hiding anything. And she looked 24.) the arresting officer and her MOTHER (who didn't know where she was for a year) asked me if I would TAKE HER BACK. For various reasons that didn't happen but I am friends with both her and her mother to this day.

Its strange how this common knowledge true story has never been mentioned while a ridiculous false one is bandied about. I think it is at least as good. If not I'll think of another one.

She was arrested for being a runaway. I attended her trial. Enough with the legalities. Its over. Time for plaudits. I'm 58. And she was gorgeous.

David Sklansky should forget about writing boring poker theory books and get cracking with the autobiography.

lol no missed that one too,

A grizzled gambler guy in his 60's encourages/provokes young men in their early 20's to perform aberrant sexual acts.

Is this proper? Is this legal?
