Poker Dave

I never walked with Poker Dave.   Today's notes are not about walking, they are about remembering.   I walk long but my memory is short.   That's good and bad.

I never walked with Poker Dave.   I went to the horse races with him.   He bet small and pretty conservative.   He had a math system for most things.   Not the ponies.   He just had fun.

I never walked with Poker Dave.   I worked countless hours with him.   I asked him thousands of questions.   Sometimes he had great answers and sometimes he had better questions.    He always had great ideas.

I did play poker with him.   He introduced interesting games to our group.   He had a math system to try to win.   Most of our games were high/low split and he went low 75% of the time.   Everyone always knew he was going low, yet he often still pulled it off.   A conservative bettor that still took his shots.

A couple of days ago Poker Dave became a spirit.   He is now guided by the energy of the tens of thousands of students he has positively impacted over the years.   I wish I would have walked with him.
