In Response To: Finished with Poker (Stanley E. Richards)

Many years ago Author Ray Zee urged me to get into live poker with the advice that I (or anyone reasonably diligent) could easily make 100K per year. I found quite quickly that the only game I disliked more than poker was blackjack. Boring beyond belief (blackjack) and almost as boring (poker) both seemed liked sitting at a slotmachine as an automatic button puncher. Now, then, backgammon was different. It was reasonably exciting to me. With the opportunity to play any of these games live every day, it was easy to spend my time playing backgammon which I enjoyed.
