You'll be wishing for someone like Jimmy who actually listens!!
On a serious note, this thread, and others related to it, have been somewhat of an interesting read. I'm a little surprised that both guys are using the word "friend", as they don't seem to have much in common other than debating poker. If that's really the case, I'd recommend spending time together away from poker and mending some fences.
It's clear that Jimmy wants to be thought of as an equal by Joe. Joe, I think you gotta recognize that and decide what it's going to take for you to treat Jimmy as a contemporary and not a subordinate. Communicate that to Jimmy, and if it doesn't materialize, just move on from each other. There is more than one way to win at this game, and maybe Jimmy is on a different path. If you guys don't recognize that then Jimmy is going to be continually frustrated trying to impress Joe, and Joe is going to be continually frustrated by things not being done 'his way'.
That sounds bad for both of your games.
