    Gwae

    Richard, those pod casts with the old big time gamblers and their stories are classics. I just finished listening to Dewey Tomko. Those guys would bet huge amounts on anything and do anything to get an edge it seems and laugh about it after it was over.

    Thanks for putting them online.

    I love GWAE. So many great legends of the gambling community have appeared on it, from both "sides" so to say.

    It's my dream to get on GWAE, and then to attend the Blackjack Ball. One day... One day...

    The most interesting thing about the Tomko interview was learning the story behind the story as to how Jack Strauss was able to win the 1982 WSOP main event at NLHE. The so-called chip and a chair, and how another player at the table pointed out to Strauss that he had a single chip underneath a napkin that he did not know about when he lost an all-in hand. While it was impressive for Strauss to win it, he won it on a technicality when he never should have won it at all. I suppose Strauss could have taken the high road by handing over that single chip to the guy who should have had it... I have to figure it was the gambler within him that kept him from doing that.

    Filling your opponents golf ball with mercury to gain an edge at golf was a good story to.

    Thanks guys. we will definitely try to get Dewey back, since after it aired I would have people say, "You should have had him tell the story about how he and Doyle funded an expedition to find Noah's Ark." and I'm like - Now you tell me. I definitely want to get Billy Baxter back too.

    Next week we have Willy Alison who is a casino game protection consultant. He's an interesting guy. If you have questions for Willy email them or put them on the facebook page.

    Sorry to ask a stupid question, but for those of us that are newer to the AP community and the BJ Forum, could you please give us the "skinny" on the GWAE program; i.e., what is it?, when does it air?, how can we access it?, what are the subject areas, etc.

    Thanks
