I’ve been in poker for 13 years now, and I’ve known Ray for almost all of that time, and he’s always striked me as somebody who understood things quickly. It was very attractive to ask him to come and work for us, because I knew he has an accountancy background, so I could expect good time skills and knew he would be reliable. Since then Ray definitely has been reliable 365 days a year, showing skills of leadership, improvisation and creativeness that means he can take a project, or take a piece of information and make it a project without needing his hand held or his work to be continuously iterated. If you have a project and need somebody to drive it, there is very few people in poker who could compete with the skills and expertise that Ray brings to the table.
