hey J as you know and hear/read all the time this is an awesome thread and much appreciated. You're definitely one of the best new age thinkers in the game right now.

Damn, I remember the day Jman posted this, time goes by so quick, and alot has changed. I miss Poker Stars and Full Tilt.

Thanks for the seasonal bump. This is one of the classic 2+2 threads and I just spent hours re-reading the whole thing.

this is a great read. I wish I was around back when this was going on

Phil, if I started working on my NLH 6max game starting 1.1.2012 how long would it take me to become as good as you are assuming you mostly play PLO and will only get better at NLH in very tiny steps because you're so much closer to having mastered it?
Could I still become better than you one day?

Just make random assumption about my intelligence, poker skills right now etc. (good enough, mediocre at best if you take my word)

What date would you put the over/under of me rising to your skill level at?

Phil is the man, just sayin.

I'll field this one Phil.


Never.

Thank you for your input but I will wait for Phil's answer.

I always subscribed to the "ask a dumb question, get a dumb answer" school of thought, but suit yourself.

I'm a sports betting neophyte.

Just how does one take the overs on "never"?

For all of you, who loved reading this and can't wait to here/read more from Phil:
He started a new website/blog. Here is the link:

Definitely the best way to follow Phil's thoughts.
