Israel was overthrown by the Assyrians in 721.9 2 - A country of southwest Asia on the eastern Mediterranean Sea, etc... etc...

[ QUOTE ] I was thinking about the parallels between he and Ungar last night and the question came to mind. [/ QUOTE ] How far did you get? [/ QUOTE ] Super aggressive 21-year olds who entered and won their second major tournaments (Ungar WSOP 1980, Schulman World Poker Final). Both are from New York, both played another game professionally before poker, both register pretty damn high on the IQ scale and if Nick's jewish, that could be a similar link. btw, Schulman as a name doesn't make things automatic. |

Umm, how can he be a Jew and an atheist? Jew implies following the Jewish religion. [/ QUOTE ] Nation, what you says seems logical but it is historically erroneous to think this way. Jew means your mother was Jewish. In Germany in the 40's the Nazi stormtroopers did not politely stop you on the street to ask you if you fasted on Yom Kippur or had decided to become an atheist. They threw you in the oven. And so it has been for at least the last 2000 years. Suerte, Jonathan |
