Default Re: Question for Mr. Sklansky

What puzzles me the most is that people think a person like Nash would be good at poker. Considering how easy normal people tilt and accuses sites of being rigged, what would happen to an unmedicated paranoid schizophrenic after a couple of bad beats or strange plays by others that is not, but could be attributed to, collusion. Poker theory and game theory he would be fine, but playing he wouldn't last 10 seconds.

FWIW I think that David Sklansky put in those exceptions in games they could master in 2 years just to pull everyones legs. He seems like a guy that would consider that as very funny. I don't see the major difference.
