Green Plastic Interview.
 
Hey, Part One of my interview with GP (Taylor Caby) went up yesterday
part 1
part two went up today
I made sure to include a question for the rank and file here:
BC: I know you principally from a poker forum which will remain nameless, but many of the members there are serious fans of the high stakes games and they would never forgive me if I failed to ask you something about Prahlad Friedman—who goes by the screen names "Mahatma," "Zwieg," and "Spirit Rock." First off, what do you think of him as a player? What is it about his game that allowed him to be so dominant for so long? Despite his expertise though, you came along and outperformed him. What was the nature of your advantage? Lastly, it seems like you're great friends with many of your opponents, do you think that in the future it will go the same way with Prahlad?

I liked the interview, good job. Anyway you can expand this:

I must have missed this. Did he specifically beat Prahlad for a lot of money over a set amount of time or just dominate the online games he was in more than Prahlad did?

I think that he did beat him quite handily by the end there. It is my ASSUMPTION that this happened and GP has said that Prahlad told him he'd never play him heads up again. I never have sweated the online games though, but there are guys here who can definitely answer your question in great detail.

I think GP said before that he was up over 6 figures over a significant sample size against Prahlad.

Great interview.

It's nice to see online players getting more print these days.

Taylor seems like a pretty likeable/approachable guy. I definitely wish him continued success.

I <3 Taylor Caby's life.

I wish I could be him for a month. Ridiculously successful on the felt. Solid career in the works away from poker and a gf that is above him on the looks-scale.

Every interview of Taylor is exactly the same. It is getting pretty old. This interview was dissapointing.

Re: Green Plastic Interview.
 
I haven't read any others so I'm not sure how that exactly could be, but, with poker players, we really only know them from the game. That's about all we pursue with them in interviews unless they'd like to take us in another direction. That's my opinion anyway.
