But I tell her flat out that she has a histrionic personality and anger management issues.

[/ QUOTE ]

Wow, that is a pretty damn good diagnosis:

In psychiatry, histrionic personality disorder (HPD), or hysterical personality disorder, is a personality disorder which involves a pattern of excessive emotional expression and attention-seeking, including an excessive need for approval and inappropriate seductiveness, that usually begins in early adulthood.

The essential feature of the histrionic personality disorder is a pervasive and excessive pattern of emotionality and attention-seeking behavior. These individuals are lively, dramatic, enthusiastic, and flirtatious. They may be inappropriately sexually provocative, express strong emotions with an impressionistic style, and be easily influenced by others.

The literature differentiates HPD according to gender. Women with HPD are described as self-centered, self-indulgent, and intensely dependent on others. They are emotionally labile and cling to others in the context of immature relationships. Females with HPD over identify with others; they project their own unrealistic, fantasied intentions onto people with whom they are involved. They are emotionally shallow and have difficulty understanding others or themselves in any depth. Selection of marital or sexual partners is often highly inappropriate. Pathology increases with the level of intimacy in relationships. Women with HPD may show inappropriate and intense anger. They may engage in manipulative suicide threats as one aspect of general manipulative interpersonal behavior.

explain to me why someone with as much clout and class in the poker community is mixed up in all of this and constantly responding to and making these threads.

Thanks,

The Unlawful Internet Gaming Act

[/ QUOTE ]

If you truly believe this you are a fool, and a liability to the effort to achieve legal status for online poker.

All you do is give ammunition to the moralistic noisemakers who love to use stuff like this against our cause. And contrary to what you may think, they do possess just enough intellectual firepower and connections to do so.

Do us a favor, and stay out of the UIGEA fight. Leave it to people with some class.

Well I thought it was pretty funny.

It's pretty disgusting that you stated "she confided to me about her childhood", which is itself a major breach of trust and rather stupid.

Why do you guys insist that DS is an intellectual dipstick? Not only did she read this before he posted it, she probably recommended that he put that line in there.

Nah, Mitch. This is the breakup. This isn't intellectual business, it's two insecure people covering their asses before going their separate ways.

Offtopically, this is exactly why Sklansky is poor at intellectual business: he's constantly trying to placate his demons.

David,

What about Tom Franklin. Have you had a conversation with him about the alleged claim by Brandi that he stole her money and tried to enforce sex with her?
