You know, back in journalism school, not only did our professors teach us to check facts, but also we received automatic F's for misspelling a name ... as I did yours in the comment referenced above. So that pretty much leaves me with an F-minus here. Mr. Addington, my apologies for mis-recalling the hand.

It can be found on the internet. Nowhere in my testimony did I "try to explain the concept of two deuces to the Texas legislature." The only instance in which I mentioned a deuce was the example of A 2 versus J 10 that I used to explain outplaying your opponent after the flop. I'm sure that you know that it did pass out of committee, but as is often the case with our dysfunctional biennial legislature, it was not brought to a vote before the full house due to the sheer number of bills awaiting action at the last moments of the session. In any event, I enjoyed interacting and playing poker while at Harvard with some of the brightest young minds in the country. Have a nice day. Crandell Good morning, Dan:

Harvard is holding their lecture series at Harvard, and the California Poker Players Conference is at Hollywood Park. That's it - just those two. And by bunch of shee-ot done before catching a flight, do you mean browsing Craigslist strip poker listings? I'll do a post later today about the CPPC... Patience, please. ;) By lots of conferences, you mean two? Harvard is holding their lecture series at Harvard, and the California Poker Players Conference is at Hollywood Park.

Wow, lot's of conferences going on. Cut me some slack, as I am scrambling to get a bunch of shee-ot done before catching a flight! I wish the poker news would take a break sometimes, so we could catch up with it all. But it just keeps on coming! Oh, right. Wow, lot’s of conferences going on.

Or, um, at least I don't. But the ones that do are the crazy statistics and economics people who go on to manage hedge funds and investment banks in New York.

(You shoulda heard him try to explain the concept of pocket deuces to the Texas legislature.) Have fun at the conference Jen. We look forward to hearing all about it.
