Re: Is Brandi really that much of a donk?
[ QUOTE ]
Read about how bad she has played at times. But she also does have some pretty decent finishes and I'm guessing it's not JUST variance but that she perhaps does have SOME kind of intuition. I'm also guessing that if I got poker lessons from Sklansky even for just an hour or two that my game would be improved considerably. I'm not a semi-hot chick though so I don't think that's going to happen anytime soon. [/ QUOTE ] In Russia, we called it "peasant smarts" - i.e. the person is an uneducated dolt, but has a certain craftiness. I guess here in NA, the equivalent is "white trash smarts". [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] She is an idiot in objective terms, but she clearly understands people well enough and has enough "sense" to scam/rob them. And it's not just snapper. I would suggest that those skills are at least somewhat useful at a poker table.

Re: Is Brandi really that much of a donk?
[ QUOTE ]
jealousy is a bitch, hot and decent enough to cash at poker not a common thing, [/ QUOTE ] Not common, but not totally unknown either. Erica Schoenberg has cashed much more than Brandi, and is much hotter IMO (and mostly everyone elses). But we're not trashing her on this forum. And that's because she is not, to our knowledge, a skanky theif who throws cards around in a $200 satellite. Similarly if we're jealous of Hellmuth, why doesn't Brunson get the same amount of stick ? He has the same amount of bracelets. Ah yes, that would be because he doesn't roll around on the floor kicking his feet when he loses a 60-40. Some of the criticism of high profile players may be motivated by jealousy but if you just ask yourself why some people are getting such stick and yet others with more money and titles aren't, then you might realise that it's how people behave that's the real issue.

Re: Is Brandi really that much of a donk?
sklanksy would be doing her a far bigger favor giving her etiquette lessons etc.. maybe some lessons in life. although recently sklansky has been sucking at that too.

Re: Is Brandi really that much of a donk?
I heard that she turned $1K into $200K in cash game successes.
