Some of you kids are jerks. Without Sklansky, no one would be playing hold'em. Not that Sklansky should be put on a pedestal, but at least stop acting like juveniles and show a little bit of respect.

No one is commenting on his ability as a strategy author. They're just saying that he sucks at posting in NVG.

"Sorry I can't tell you who it was.".....than why start the thread? To tell ppl that you know famous poker players?

Your posts read like the National Enquirer.

You should post your comments on TMZ or PerezHilton.

I agree, I admired DS until I saw this post. If you posted again later on that's one thing, but to stir up something and then not deliver at all - what's the point?

It's a male, fact.
It's not a fulltilt sponsored player, educated guess
It's a "feel" player that has so-so results, but hasn't gotten over the hump, educated guess.
It's a mixed game player, as Sklansky wouldn't be sitting in a 1500 NL Holdem event, educated guess.
It's someone humble enough to have a conversation like this, that isn't an asshat, educated guess.

I'm going to say it was Amnon Filippi. Final Answer.

I can understand where the OP and statement come from and I've often wondered the same things. They are much better at than most people, and practically figured out the game of tournament poker rather than survive on their actual poker skills. I think in tournament poker knowing how to work the different stages of the tournament and proper stack management is a more valuable asset than being really great at poker/reading people. While many top pros are good at both, or great and one and decent at the other, Phil Ivey is the only person I can name that is a true master of both. He is by far the best tournament player I've ever played with.
