Saw a really ugly Poker Pro
 
What's the dude's name? He's ugly. Got a pig face and likes to lick it. Twitches and shit.

I was going to a concert on Friday night and stopped in at an old dive bar with great food before I headed to the Hard Rock. The place was wayyyy more packed than I had ever seen it. Finally, I realized they were playing some backgammon in the main dining room. I guess it was a league or something and he was playing in it. I could never mistake him for anyone else.

Who was it?

you talking about that x22 dude? Paul Magriel?

Fildy 05-03-09 08:39 PM

Yeah, that sounds like him. He was on a few episodes of PPT and a WSOP event I think.

That was my guess.

Yeah, that's him. Interestingly, he's one of the best backgammon players in the world (according to Wiki). Also, he's the creator of "M-ratio" as discussed in HOH.

Off to the races...

IIRC, according to HoH, Harrington coined the M concept, Magriel postulated Q (relation of your stack to the average).
