Normally, he would be a huge play against for me, but it is Paul Reddam and he may just be culling his "herd" and he likes to win so he may be looking to recoup 25k and take the purse money. Nakatani sees fit. Mixed signals.

Thanks
Thank you sir.

I already had an A next to him, but I hate to do it. Anybody but O'Neill and Reddam, he would be a toss for me.

Caught the show today with my dad coming back from the hospital in Cooperstown, first time dad heard it. Said Steve had a good voice for the radio and enjoyed it. Hopefully, I'll introduce you to him at the Spa this summer. He's my partner at the Spa the days I'm not in the press box.
