raf...

I remember you calling yourself an Ace poker player...If so...why are you advocating for poor play...If the pot odds say call.. If the odds say calling is correct then calling is good poker...If you are in poker game you can not afford and make decisions based on your wallet then you are just playing over your head and that is bad poker..

I am not against buyouts per say...I am against buyouts based on immediate gratification (something we discussed earlier after the R-I results). I am also sympathetic to personal situations in the market (but these situations do not pertain to poker games)...If someone sold 25% 0f his shares after the R-I results at a PPS of $14...because he wanted to insure his children went to college...I'm fine with that...as it represents a windfall that is unlikely to occur in the future...But for those who are not in a special situation..Rooting for a buyout which would be multiples less than the company holding and not selling because they have "Ants in their pants" Well It is not good market play..I have no sympathy for any of these guys who have come on the board after the R-I results...

I go back to the "Stock Broker" era...and I was always a shooter..I had a good old fashion Broker..Bruce Rocknowski (RIP)..Those were telephone days..and Bruce knew every Wall Street joke ever told..and every affirism...He was a heavy drinker and proved it by dying of Pancreatitis..We had some times...I lost $650,000 while playing a round of golf on one of the Disney courses on vacation with my wife and kids..And that was not Amarin fluctuation money..That was gone for good...and it hurt bad...The only salvation was I was up $850,000 on the stock..(Genzyme Tissue Repair)...When the stock was going up it was like Monopoly Money...When I lost it it was like having my guts pulled out...Worst Disney Vacation ever..

I have not done that again..The problem was I did not understand the treatment and the science and I vowed that would never happen again and it hasn't....
