Love the sword-fighting! :)

I seem to remember a chap named Elliott Shapiro, who told me in the early to mid-2000's in person that his job was playing on teams that almost exclusively chased progressives. I believe another named Tom Robertson led one of those teams.

Could you please explain how the IRS had anything to do with putting teams (at least the ones you're familiar with) out of business? From what I know about how they operate that's somewhat out of their circle of responsibility. Or did you mean that the confusion and complications from how individual players reported their income (or didn't report income) just caused too much trouble for it to be worth doing any more?

Thank you.

There are no more teams since the late 90's. IRS pressure put them out of business. Those of us that went independent are banging away as much as we can, I was away for the weekend sword fighting in California, but play 5 hours tonight.
Also, many of the ex-team people don't play quarters. Not worth their time. If the dollar was up that would be another story.
My three day absence has left too many posts to reply to. I need to get to sleep so I can be back at the M in the morning. See ya all there.
Oh bring a SDB strategy for when the Joker falls.
