Ok, this is going to be a great site. ATE is rather impressed, with the rapid growth I've already seen.

I am more than HAPPY, to provide BTP readers with GREAT poker material, and NO bullpoop material.


Hell, I'm even willing to drop other sites, I have already just about done so.


Now, there is the mater of the ATE section that was offered, prior to the launching.

Iceman: do'nt take it as an insult, that I never got back to you on your last offer. I have a difficult time keeping track of the things in my life, with all the people emailing me, and trying to keep up with the five sites where I was writing at the time.

This was NOT a snub, so please don't withdraw the offer.

I'd like to do it, but I am NOT going to beg.

Well, maybe a little.

Adam

Hey Adam,

Glad you like the site

I do hope you will continue to read and post here. Of course we will protect you (as we will for all our members) from abuse. And like all other members, if you were to commit abuse yourself, we'd take action.

I suggest that you make this forum your 'home' and post (like all our other members) on-topic, and in the relevant forum.

Since your own section would afford you no more protection that all our other members currently get, plus all imaginable posts you might make already fit neatly into our categories, it seems as if your own forum would (a) afford you, personally, no tangible benefits and (b) hinder our other members from finding all of the material directly relevant to them.

If you would like to write a credited, full-blown article or series of articles for the main site, you are welcome to submit them, although they will be reviewed (like everyone else's).

I look forward to your response.

Remember, the section was going to be: "ask Adam the Expert" This would afford those wishing to ask me questions, the opportunity to do so, and know that they would be anwwered.

Many times in the past, people would ask a question of me, in another thread, and there was NO way I could even see it. I guess they thought I read EVERY thread!!

And YES, it's a ego thing!! Believe ME, I have put in my time and paid my DUES to learn what I know!! You cannot imagine what I have gone though, to perfect my craft.

No!! even worse than what you were thinking.

So, an Ask Adam the Expert section, would show some recpect for my 18 years, and VAST knowlege of EVERY game.

Hey Adam,

Thanks for responding.

I've explained my point of view already, so ice, what's your take?

Ive been very impressed with the quality of ATE's post lately. Im willing to re-open the orignal offer.

OK, I'll set it up tomorrow.

Ok, let's have Iceman pick the topic for my next article. I'll have to ask that you limit the subject to:


Small holdem, large hold em spread limit hold em pot limit hold em no limit hold em

Hi low hold em stud stud high low razz draw lowball triple draw lowball

Omaha, omaha hi low pot limit omaha no limit omaha Pineapple, 5-stud anaconda criss cross poker in Alaska, being a pro player tournaments, and of course

cooking, both private family, and casino


Yes, fellow BTPers, I REALLY have played, and beaten all the games I've mentioned.


OOOOH, this new site is going to be like a kid on Christmas, for anyone who enjoys ATE material.


P.S.

Doesn't my new signature sound better?

I like the old signature better
