And get rid of my tells. And learn how to count stacks of chips by their colors when I'm color blind. And wait forever to get a table. And learn how to play at a slowwwwwww brick and mortar pace. And have the good looking babes offering drinks distract me. And getting drunk from those drinks. <G>

I saw your friend, Allen Miller, on The Professional Poker Tour from Foxwoods last night. He had made the final 17 in a tournament that included the 174 best players in the world. Unfortunately, the only time they showed him is when he got knocked out.

Miller had 9/9 and a short stack, so he went all in. Little did he know that the other two nines had been folded by other players. Jennifer Harmon, who had been hot as a pistol, called with A/J suited. She flopped an Ace and it was all over for him.

BTW, they repeated the story you told here about him running into Bill Gates at the cheap table at Foxwood's. It was funny to hear the second time.

This was an old tournament, as The World Poker Tour had to settle a lawsuit before they could broadcast it. So, it probably happened in 2005.
