I still see his screen name around the web on some other horse racing forums, and from time to time he appears in both movies and TV programs.
Another former player whose departure I greatly missed was John Halvorsen from New Jersey. John was a very likeable person and a consistently strong handicapper; I still see his name in some contest standings.
Just the other day I happened to notice John Servidio's name in the standings of a Remington Park handicapping contest. John lives in northwestern PA (I believe Meadville) and was with our group for two or three years.

Yes, Jerry Hauck, DeNiro. I enjoyed his play and personality as well. I was not referring to Jerry but the "leader" of the Galt House gang, who for sure I cannot remember his name. I got sucked into their fray and paid the price of being booted out . . . but it turned out to be all for the good. Yes, it would be great if we could get the two John's back with us.
