Re: Sklansky vs Negreanu!
The nits are easy to understand, it's the reckless gamblers that are hard. It's easier to understand how someone wouldn't pay 200 dollars for In and Out than would. But that's not really what we are talking about.
Reckless gambling to me, are the guys betting huge sums of money with a high likelihood of going broke. It may be interesting and cool from afar, but if the perpetrator were a close friend or family member, I certainly wouldn't be laughing about 25k coinflips. I'm all for reading about degeneracy on the message boards, but idolizing the crazy gamblers for their gamble is stupid. |

I don't think Negreanu is a "crazy gambler"

That was his point. Since flipping coins is about neutral EV, the likelihood of you going broke based solely on that, is small. You could also go broke with AA vs KK preflop if your bankroll is not big enough, but there isn't a high likelihood of that happening either. |
