PLOwing Pots

David Sklansky, a legend in the poker world, has died and is being remembered for some of his most well known and public words. Here are some of his less known quotes, that only a few who have been around a while know. “If I had known she was a runaway or that she was 16 I would have sent her on her way. At least at first.” “I can say that every female I ever had a relationship with, including the young ones, does not regret it to this day.” “I was shocked to learn that the "20yo" I was [censored] and living with for a year was actually 16!" “My two odd criminal acquaintances…The other is a desk clerk who arranges the curtains of a motel room that he rents once a week to a certain beatiful female customer. He arranges them in such a way that he can sneak out and watch her undress…Actually, my best friend, now deceased, really did this. And not just for one customer. Obviously the trick is to close the drapes in a way that the patron does not think it needs further adjustment. While leaving a tiny sliver opening in just the right spot.” “As long as even a small fraction of woman suffer PMS to the point where it occasionaly affects their decisions, that one fact is highly relevant as far as voting for a woman president is concerned. At least until she is of the age that doctors agree the syndrome no longer occurs.” “I have young friends, who have friends, who have friends who do nasty things at the blink of an eye. Drive by shootings etc. To do something like throw some paint on a good dress would be nothing to them…They might even think I'd like it better if it was acid rather than paint…Basically the only option available is to leave the poker world forever. Ply your trade elsewhere. Suicide wouldn't be a bad option either. If you do that I will promise to stop badmouthing you.” "I just want people to look at me like they did Solomon back in the days of Israel. Whenever people have a problem, I want them to think, 'What would David do here?' I know that plenty of people do that already." Yes let’s remember the Solomon of the poker world. If in doubt just ask, “What would David do here?”
