The poker pro Prahlad Friedman has caused a huge discussion. In Twitter Friedman suggested that the wise man of poker, David Sklansky, would be a cheater…
- mmm.. some Sklansky bucks!
Friedman tells about a game with Sklansky where every player got 5,000 chipstacks. However, 300 chips were missing from one player’s stack. Finally these chips were found from Sklansky’s stack after each player had already been asked to check their stacks. Sklansky claimed that he had not heard the request at all. There was one chip too much in each of his chipstacks - which accounted for this unnoticed disproportion.
One commentator wrote that if Sklansky himself had noticed a missing $100 in his stack, he surely would have gone nuts. Sklansky’s answer was rude:
“Whoever this guy is who said that I would go nuts if I was missing 100 is either joking or doesn’t realize how little that amount is since this website came along” , he wrote and referred to those big sums he has earned from 2+2 page. Sklansky is one of the owners of the Twoplustwo company.
