Default Re: Sklansky/Brandi stuff . . . Am I just an old fuddy-duddy?

Has Sklansky ever won a poker tournament? Just curious. If not, he would seem to be an odd choice for a tournament poker mentor.

if winning a poker tournament is your standard for teaching qualification than only a hundred or so poker players are qualified to teach.

Im sure Sklansky has made over a million dollars from tournaments (he rarely plays them). So he is not qualified you say?

I'm not saying he's not qualified. By his books, he's one of the great poker teachers of all time. I'm just saying that, if your primary interest is tournament poker, you might consider getting a mentor who has had more tournament success.

Having said that, I am available to be Sklansky's next poker pupil after Brandi kicks him to the curb and goes internet-psycho on him. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
