Message: [QUOTE="Crystal Blue, post: 1011574, member: 46561"] Search his name, every reputable site out there will more often than not kick start their take on him with the word "legendary", that's a fact. He has legendary status in the poker world and everybody knows who he is. He most likely has the highest or one of the highest profiles in the game, that's a fact. The media fall over themselves to get a piece of him and have done for years, and he didn't have to have his name rubber stamped on some poker committee to achieve such a huge status, that's a fact. Pokerpages quote the poker HOF as a place for "Influential" poker players, and Poker Listings quote him as being the "Pioneer" for a certain strategy method, I will take their view over yours any day of the week, that's a fact. He just recently championed the TASER Foundation, using POKER as a vehicle to raise huge amounts of money. If you don't know what it's all about I will tell you. It raises money to help the families of fallen law enforcement officers. The families of people that put their lives on the line to protect people and die in the course of their duties. By using poker to raise these huge amounts of monies for such a worthy cause he is sending out the message that poker, and poker players have heart and cares, that sir, is a fact. It flies in the face of the likes of the UIEGA and does good things for poker. You don't have to have invented some poker related gadget or helped to sort out major tournament rules to have done good things for poker. You don't have to sit on a committee or council either. There are many different things you can do help it along for it's greater good. Maybe these types of things don't count in your world, but the smart money will always recognize such things and give credit where it's due, that's a fact. It was fun engaging with you on this subject and I look forward to hooking up with you on other threads in the near future. [/QUOTE]
