As OP was excited about the prospect of Robertie being the Robertie he had played against in person or at least been in the same room with then he can be forgiven for shouting.

OP: using capitals is thought to be "shouting".

I think I would shout if I had potentially played against a world champion and major theorist.

not that excited...would like to play him again obv as im much better now. i just have a tendency to leave the caps lock on...im getting older and its easier for me to read....still will never understand the raucus it causes...so trivial to waste time worrying about the size of a letter!! ******ED ACTUALLY!

I share indariva's enthusiasm with how we can come to 2+2 and meet some of our favorite authors and players. I played cash and tournament backgammon a ton before I got into poker, read most of Robertie's books.. and thought "holy crap thats Bill Robertie here and he's friends with Dan Harrington!" the first time I saw him post on 2+2. I think its awesome that he's got an active BG forum here now too.

And I think its pretty cool that indariva used to play Robertie back in the day. Might not have been a +EV decision but I bet it was educational.
