Mr. Mike: ancient Caro article, Angel, 31. Oct 2003 23:07
    View ( Message | Thread )       Return to Thread List
Mike,

If you happen to have past articles hanging around unappreciated on the computer and could take the time to re-post one from years ago I'd sure appreciate it. I believe the name of it was, "Don't buy the necklace". The gist of the article was a young up and coming player who had a gf with expensive tastes - he spoiled her at the expense of his BR and this up and comer up and vanished instead. Ring any bells?

Well, I said ancient but that was really just to make the inimitable mad genius feel old. It's probably only about 10 years old. :)

This article is on his website. Click on POKER INFO at the bottom of the screen then go to articles and it is about halfway down named "Robert Turner"s Tournament Opinion, And Don"t Buy That Necklace".

I'm not sure how to link it here or I would.

Roy,
I just wanted to insure that it was a necklace and not a cruise... ;)

but if your a pro dont you have to make a conscious decision that BR is more important than anything else? *one reason highly unlikely i would ever try*
