Message: [QUOTE="Vfranks, post: 1373179, member: 56954"] Yeah I heard somewhere I frgot that he started real young, and te fake id thing. And supposedly he was just really sucessfull, and started playing ALLLL THE TIME. I heard he was playing in many home games, and casino alike. My step-grandfather was a big gambler, and poker player. Did they even have books back then about poker, maybe a few, but not like today probably?? AND I don't think my gfather learned frm a book, but from other players? Also like someone said about Ivey and the other players getting together to talk strategy.... thats pretty much like CC, but a live version isnt it? So I think it is very possible he has not read a book for his own strategy, but think that maybe he has talked strategy with other players alot? Also if I were him i'd be a lil bit curious as to what was in a poker book, so maybe like someone said he has picked one up and skimmed it at least? BUT who knows for real? only him... [/QUOTE]
