I was wondering where Don went and if he was ok, so, I contacted him and here is his response:

Hi Chili Palmer! Actually I have had on my daily "to do" list for two weeks now, to post on FF, just to explain my absence. I'll get to it one of these days. =) Been real busy with both the biz, and poker. More on that below.... I've just been out of the market for now- simply because I just don't feel like I have the overall perspective clearly in mind---and as I've always "preached"--perspective is everything. I'm waiting until I get a handle on the big picture again. Meantime- I'm seriously making a bid for going "pro" in tournament poker. It's been an obsession for me--and it's now paying off in a good way. I've read, re-read, and digested every book written on the subject and now play about 40-50 hours a week. And, as said, it's actually paying off very nicely. Maybe you'll see me at the 2007 WSOP main event! Best to you and the rest-- I'll be back eventually. Feel free to let others there know that all is well with IYB---he's just gotten distracted during a time when the perspective is a little murky. And pass along my best to all..... Take good care, Ron. Aloha, D

IYB, He is still a rock star to me. He is the best, tons of wisdom for those who could listen.

a little S&G

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening

"Fools", said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words, like silent raindrops fell
And echoed
In the wells of silence

Which site does IYB play on? I just took up the game 11 months ago, it's fun and profitable. I'm just a rookie but have done pretty well for a beginner.

Wow Don is a high roller !!

I think trading is a bit like a good poker game. There are the probabilties in front of you, knowing when to fold or raise and sentiment seems a little like bluffing to me.
