So, as with many of Sklansky's threads, he is doing research.

Brandi is the banana

And everybody at 2+2 counts as nothing more than a bunch of chimps.

David, you are a strange (and fkn annoying little scientist)

Any regular on these forums who thought that picture could be real, also probably has serious problems with his poker game and his ability to evaluate evidence. So I don't feel guilty if they feel like guinea pigs.

I'm a regular, I never stated my opinion on the photo - only on your research methods. Sorry you resorted to playing the crying 14-year old on an online game who immediately resorts to "yeah, well your not even a good poker player." Hope you don't take your ball and go home, I still like reading 2+2.

Pair The Board already explained it. But to reiterate, it isn't the pose that is so implausible. It is the PARLAY that there would have been someone there to take a picture at just the right moment. And the the greater parlay that he would post here. And the even greater parlay still that I would have ignored the thread so long.

Judging by the period of time I saw you around Brandi at the bellagio during the weekend, I'd say if anything your estimate of 10 minutes is far from correct and her obvious whorishness in person makes that picture completely plausible whether or not it is in fact accurate and regardless of whether you staged it or not. I'd have taken a picture myself if I had my camera on me at the time.

non of this is particularly unlikely, in my mind. you and brandi are poker celebrities, and i'm sure you're aware of the fact that eyes are on you in any given poker room. obviously brandi is well aware of this as well, with regard to her. thus, even if this pose wasn't preceeded by some sort of commotion, which it obviously would have been, it's naive to think that eyes wouldn't be on you. and where there are eyes there are cell phones, and where there are cell phones there are cameras.

your second argument about it being unlikely that the picture taker would also post here is silly. i feel like it can be assumed that anyone who would be in a position to capture this picture would also certainly be aware of 2+2. in fact, i think it's much less likely that if this picture got taken that it wouldn't be posted here, or NWP or something.

as far as you ignoring the thread, i don't see how that in any makes the odds of this picture being real any less. do you respond every time someone posts a picture of you on your forums?

all that said, please come back w/a full brandi trip report.

All,

Can someone tell me if I one of the ones who was fooled if I saw that picture and I thought "Sklansky is trying to have sex with Brandi"? It didn't cross my mind whether the photo was staged or not. Who's leveling who here?

EDIT: To clarify, if it had been real, he's trying to sex Brandy. If not, he's trying to sex Brandi. The staged/not staged question is moot. And it's not creepy for an older man to want to sex a younger woman at all, it's standard.

Whoever did the editing on the hair line did a bad job too. Someone pointed that out in the thread.

I knew the photo was staged also but it still baffles me that DS would want to do that picture given his and her histories.

I can think of a few reasons, although they do all begin with the assumption that he's a creepy old perv.

do you young guys just assume men over 40 stop wanting to bang younger women for some reason? The reason we do go after younger, hotter girls is because we can still get them.

David,

I'm a little confused as to why you think many people were fooled by that obviously staged picture. Skeptical comments in the first 10-15 responses:

"that ain't sklansky, that ain't brandy"

"are these really them or am I being leveled?"

"im sure sklansky thinks this is funny, but it can't be good for him or 2p2 overall, can it?"

"God i hope this is staged/fake."

"How do 2 people candidly end up in that pose in public?"

"this is staged. its gotta be"

Sure, some people actually bought it, but I don't think this was some great trick that got most everyone except PairTheBoard. He just bothered to write up what others were implying while most of us just ignored the nonsense.

I stick w/ my 25% success prediction.

[/ QUOTE ]

This is also my impression of the response.

I think David should go back to challenging Christians to intelligence contests, and leave the XXXXXX to those who know what to do with them
