i havent read that book or even seen it, but the exact pharse "illusion of action" was coined by dave when writing our book that hasnt made it to print. i find it very troubling that he uses it simlarly to our use and was privy to the part of the manuscript that few have seen.

A quick Google shows that Mason uses the term in "Poker Essays, Volume II" (1996), and the phrase appears in other internet poker discussions at least as far back as the late 1990's (including an archived 2+2 post by Sklansky in 1998).
