Our friends at CardRunners couldn\’t have been more thrilled when I took down the team portion of the WSOP-Dream Team event this past summer — wearing their patch while doing so — but since then have been less than enthusiastic about my performance at the tables.
So … they strongly suggested I work on my game. \”If you ever want to be taken seriously as a player you have to actually improve, Dan. You can\’t go burning through your entire bankroll trying to learn PLO,\” said a CardRunners representative about three steps removed from Brian Townsend. \”And stop talking all this garbage about Isildur!\”
So I agreed — at least to the part about my advancement in poker. I had to start by writing \”I will not raise with weak starting hands against strong players in middle position\” 100 times in permanent marker on a whiteboard.
