i just read where eskimo has passed on. too bad as he was a character and fun usually to have at the table. he will be missed and remembered.
here is a little story --
many years back we were playing in about a 200/400 limit razz game at the 4 queens in vegas. the game was quite good with easy pickings and eskimo losing as he often did back then in cash games.
after a time i realized that the cards were marked in the game. i wasnt sure who may have been in or even if they came in from some other table and no one knew. but i made a big stink about it as that is best. so the floorman took the deck out and said he would check it and i still wasnt happy with the little response from him. i guess he was in.
but eskimo who was losing and certainly wasnt part of any scam asked me to be quiet about it as he didnt want any of the players to quit. i guess he would rather be cheated than not have a game to play
i quit soon after as i determined two players were at least partners and they probably did the deed. later i heard he and another player lost big. the funny part was he and all the rest kept playing even after i showed how the deck had been marked.
there are lots of interesting and funny eskimo(paul clark) stories and he deserves his place in poker.
