anselm 0 Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 What's the point in linking to a Cardplayer profile when it seems highly likely that cwik was just there and is probably where he got his information from in the first place? I would guess he's looking for something more, like "I played with Bill Chen back in ___ in the late 90's, he was kickass at ____ and I know he's been prepping hard for this year's WSOP."

xtxoxpxd 0 Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 william chen has always been a well respected poker player, albiet an unknown because of poor WSOP which aren't representative of his true ability. he's pretty much a sklansky type player, very math oriented. he wrote mathematics of poker with jerrod ankenman. i believe skalansky rated him as the most intelligent poker player.bill chen's coinflip:http://www.playwinningpoker.com/articles/00/12.html Link to post Share on other sites
