Setting Win Limitations

[Alan Mendelson]

I watched the same videos and to me it seemed like Alan was reporting on Rob's system more than advocating it. He even seemed to question some of what Rob was saying, and of course his site states the math plays with their higher return right by the Singer Special Plays with lower mathematical return. One could argue that merely presenting Rob's system at all was in some way positively biased towards it. I did not feel that this was the case, and I support Alan's decision to report on what is a very interesting topic. Even if it is wrong, I find it fascinating how other people think, and without windows into contradictory thought processes like this one, our/my understanding of the world would suffer.

I'll be happy to do that video for you whenever you want.

Thank you Frank. Not only do I question Rob's plays but there are multiple other articles on my site about correct strategy.

We are scheduled to talk on the phone, and I look forward to doing the video interview with you.

Most importantly, Rob's system is entitled to coverage and presentation so all can make an informed decision about it. He is an author, a columnist and an advocate for his system, and getting the information out about it is what journalists do so the public can intelligently and objectively decide.

I personally see some value in what Rob advocates in certain situations such as... (OMG here he goes again!) quitting and taking home the win to enjoy, and when you might want to deviate from accepted or so-called "correct strategy."

I honestly follow this particular "special play" of his and I have discussed this before: when dealt a full house with three aces and two paired kickers (pair of 2, 3, 4) or even just one kicker in TDB only hold the aces to maximize the chance for quad aces. "Correct strategy" says to hold a kicker.

His other special plays Im not inclined to follow, especially breaking up trip queens when given three to the royal.
