Default Re: I completely agree with the snyder on the issues of speed...

Look at his silly reply to the "NL cash games dying out" post. Mason predicted NL cash games would be dead. His response was not an admission that he was wrong, but he actually said "Well they actualy did." It's childish and silly. Even if they did become less popular for a time, it's clearly not for the reasons he gave - they were ludicrous and wildly wrong, and he can't admit it. Do you really need someone to explain to you why there are still bad players playing NL cash games? Do you really need someone like Mason trying to theorize to you why it can't possibly be happening?

This is an amazing paragraph. With only one exception that I know of, you could not find a no limit cash game that went on any sort of regular basis in a public cardroom for at least ten years. They only made a come back when no limit tournaments got on TV.

The argument has been laid out clearly, evidence has been presented that shows Harrington implicitly agrees with Snyder, and yet you will see either no reply from Mason, or you'll see another one saying "Snyder is wrong and I haven't seen any evidence otherwise." Whatever.

This one's right up there as well.
