The Professor, the Banker, and the Suicide King

The book was awesome! I thought it was funny how Jennifer Harmon flew back from Italy on a bs rumor. Why did he rip on Sklansky at the end? There must be more to it.

How did he rip on Sklansky? I must have missed it..

The author was angry that Sklansky refused to give his insight into the intricacies of heads up play. I don't know why the author even asked Sklansky to do this in the first place because Sklansky has stated that he has very little experience playing head up. The author should have asked Neverwin or even a successful high limit prop player, because props often play short handed.

After reading this book, Ted Forrest in my new poker hero.
Love how he just jumps into the game initially with his own bankroll without the corporation's knowledge.

That's right. I think it's more complaining about Sklansky than ripping him, but it was such a small portion of the book was devoted to that part that I don't remember exactly.

I just finished this, and enjoyed it very much.
Well written, and captivating. If you haven't yet read it, I highly recommend it.

The Sklansky knock was buried at the end of the "Acknowledgments" in the back of the book.
It seemed both critical and a compliment, in an awkward sort of way.
