Double Deuces

[quote=billryan] As I said, Phil Fa La La La La.... La la la la loves to take cheap shots and then lacks the fortitude to stand by them.
Now, he claims this somehow is thanking Bob.Billy, this fixation you have of interpreting everything I say as a jab at Bob Dancer is getting ridiculous.  Lets straighten this out once in for all. 1. As far as I'm concerned, Bob Dancer's VP strategy is infallible when playing positive games.2. I'm not Fa La La La La.... La la la la.  Never met him, don't know who he is and could care less anyway.3. I believe a player should be able to play any way they want with their own money.4. I believe we are here to help players who want our help and leave them alone when they don't.5. I believe playing smaller reduces loses when playing negative games.6. I believe Bob Dancer would agree with all of the above.Whatever personal problems you have should not be aired on this forum.  If you want to pick a verbal fight with me, message me and we'll have a go at it.   Give us all a break and find something positive to talk about.  How about it?

   More lies.   If you want to pretend that wasn't a dig at Dancer, so be it. You seem incapable of both being honest and of owning your statements.
It is what it is, and you are what you are.
Sad.

Whatever.  Go have another drink and relax.

I tend to agree with Phil on this one. After reading a couple of recent billryan posts, I've wondered how he could possibly interpret them as jabs at Bob Dancer.[/QUOTE]

I believe BR has expressed disgust towards FP a few times in the past with regards to him being the sole proprietor / biggest reason Mr. Dancer has not participated on this forum since April 2016 (though he has eyes on this forum based on a recent column).

While BR may be wrong on this occasion thinking Phil is taking a jab at Mr. Dancer, there is no denying that Phil has an obsession with Mr. Dancer and cannot go one week without mentioning his name. I guess that stirs up BR.

BR has also had some dishonest posts as well, so he is not perfect and can use better reading comprehension skills to become a better player.
