The Poker Lab Rat

Here’s some recent poker quotes from well known professional players:

Justin Bonomo
I know the “feel” players will cringe at this statement, but every situation in poker can be broken down into mathematical terms.

It may seem like you have many good options in a given situation, but there is always one correct play, and the rest are all mistakes.

Antonio Esfandiari
I got the owner to agree to flip for our bill. Double or nothing. If we lose we pay double whatever the bill was (about $900 pre tip) and if we win it was on the house. Heads or tails 2 out of 3. We win – our entire meal was free. How sweet it is. 
[Eds comment: Why would you take this bet? Hell, I’d never even serve him. Tosser.]

Evelyn Ng
I used to sometimes refer to A-Q affectionately as “big chick” or “slick chick” as a joke, but you know, sometimes A-Q is just a bitch! [Evelyn was 3 times screwed with A-Q in the 08 Ladies NO Limit Hold’em World Championship].

Erick Lindgren
Betting on myself to win a bracelet was a way to make it more important. This year, it became about attaining the bracelet, and not just the money, because money doesn’t motivate me as much as a tangible object. I see why Hellmuth talks about them all the time – it helps his motivation.

Mike Matusow
(On the WSOP 2008 Main Event Final Table Format deferral till November)
All the @%$* pros that agree with it are whores for Harrah’s. They think it’s the best thing, but I think it’s horrible. This is the most horrific thing to happen to poker. Ever.
