The Dean's thread

[The Camel]

And we know where he was going on the bus......

Beats my hourly rate at my local casino.

Hoping to move on to ketchup duty and a very small pay rise any day soon!

Hey Keith, you missed a bit...

I Lol'd amazingly hard tbh ... in fact i did a little wee in my pants !!

A++++++++++++++++

Just think, there's an parallel universe somewhere where Tighty didn't pull the original thread, and that image wasn't posted.

Pity those poor Blondes in the other universe.

[Bainn]

WPT & Flush magazines seem to like him.

Not to be rude, but these magazines will print any old tosh. (I should know, I wrote for Cardplayer for about 3 years)

The content of these magazines are irrelevant. They only survive on advertising.

Are you suggesting your own writing was tosh and therefore you can recognise other writers drivel ?

Bingo.

[The Camel]

Come on Carl!

You've been reading this thread for the best part of an hour.

Surely you can squeeze an answer to my points into your busy schedule?

[AndrewT]

Bingo.

Isn't that the subject of The Dean's next book.

You've not written anything since ?

Hi Carl,

Please can you substantiate the following claims from your site:

"“The Dean” is the nickname for one of Europe’s most prolific poker theorists and writers.". According to who?

“The Dean’s” landmark book, “Princes of Darkness:”. Who called it a "landmark book"?

“The Dean’s” reputation has grown so significantly within the industry . According to who? Noone I know has ever heard of you, except as a poster on various forums. You're growth seem to be based on self publicity.

You can't just make these claims without sources. It makes you appear shady. Add some references and then noone will doubt you.

Kind Regards,

Keith

love how you used the words "Hi Carl" and "regards" there

Not that I have to substantiate anything to the likes of you but........

I AM one of the most prolific poker writers in Europes.......look up what prolific means

blackjack book.......having read more BJ books than most then I am in the best place to know what is landmark and what isnt and there is stuff in that book that I havent seen elsewhere and am damn proud of that fact.

You havent heard of me......so what......I have only just barely heard of you, arent you some mediocre live tournament player who has been around since the thirties. Maybe you can write about some of your mediocre substantiated results. I would hazard a guess that the guys over the pond who I speak to frequently wouldnt have heard of you either.

Just to educate you a bit further......that site isnt owned by me and I am not responsible for all of the content on it but you never bothered to find that out did you.

As for your silly comments regarding Flush/WPT.... there is advanced stuff in those magazines as well and they try to cater for all skill levels. But I also write for Sklansky and Malmuths 2+2 internet magazine but thats hardly going to cut any ice with someone like you who is obviously spoiling for a fight. I am missing CL for this and wont be replying again so if you want to get the last word in then knock yourself out mate.

Regards

Carl

Too much like hard work.

Is that large fries sir?

[Robert HM]

I've pulled it

Why?

Well frankly I'm embarrassed that people have seen fit to tear the guy apart, even after some posts were deleted earlier. I don't like it, I don't think it reflects well on blonde as a forum and I don't think the fella (or almost anyone for that matter) deserves it. You may well think the articles stink, you may well rather blonde didn't carry them - fine - but in my opinion some of the stuff on the thread was unwarranted.

Feel free to have a pop, goes with the territory, and after all the current decision to carry the articles resides with me so do so rather than pop at The Dean, but people went too far.

Jesus, you're all missing you chance. Tighty removed the thread as it was getting excessive, he then invites you to have a pop at him instead. Then he goes out, leaving his position undefended. What do you do instead, either carry on as before or score points agaisnt each other. The target is the OP
