I happened to be playing the high-stakes 4-8 (that's whole dollars!) game at the Bellagio when Phil Ivey and Sammy Farha were playing some other guy..I can only assume a rich fish or non-tourney cash game player. I sort of wonder how the "big game" works. I mean do the top pros just keep pushing chips around to each other, or more likely, do they just feed off the rich guys who want to take a crack at them? Do some of the almost but not quite top pros play in the game, but regularly take a beating?

3 Semesters of discrete math, and 2 of probability and I never understood this problem until Daniel just explained it. I remember reading about it in Ask Marilyn, but she just said it's true because she said so, never gave a reasonable explanation. Hopefully Daniel will retire from poker soon and teach all of us how to play. He seems to have a gift for communicating.
