PAD Nerd-O-Rama

Is it just me, or is this possibly the

most boring week of PAD ever ?

Oli Nejad summed it up pretty well.
" 6 geniuses + 1 math problem = 4 aspirin"

I've always wanted to over hear geniuses

disgussing geometric proofs and proofs

by induction. .... Not !

The "Brilliant Minds" have so much potential.
Unfortunately for the audience, these guys
show that being extremely math smart
doesn't often combine with being a

conversational, social animal.

This could easily be called:
"Revenge of the Nerds Week".

The only semi-entertaining guy with

some personality is David Sklansky,

and he was knocked out first.

Hostess Leanne Tweedan has some how

gotten the idea that these "math pros"

are doing sophisticated algebra and

calculus equations in their heads while
the rest of the world is asking the

magic 8-ball whether to call or fold.

Sklansky even explained to her that

everyone can figure out pot odds and

the percentage of times your hand

will hold up. That's not what makes

these "math" guys special.

Its GAME THEORY !

Atleast I have something to look

forward to. Next week (Feb 16) it's the

"Nets" versus "Vets" cash game with

Taylor Caby, Cole South, Gabe Kaplan,

Dave Benefield, Doyle and Eli Elezra
