10 years sober today. I haven’t really been active on social much the past handful of years but appreciate all the love I’ve gotten from this platform regarding my journey. Even the small % of haters, thanks for the extra motivation. One day at a time🙏🏻.
I reached out privately to offer Kevin a main event free roll but he made it clear that awareness for his cause is very important to him so I wanted to share this with my followers, GL
@KevinRacksPoker
and I look forward to meeting you in Vegas soon!
Just want to give a big thank you beyond words to
@GregMerson
for agreeing to put me in the Main Event and helping to raise even more awareness for Sarcoma cancer. He wanted no PR for this at all but I think it’s a plus for awareness.

Successful turnouts like Monster stack prove you don’t need re-entry to have big prizepools. Every weekend doesn’t need to be a money grab with every pro entering 4x and the recs having even less of a shot at a bracelet.
I love
@aliImsirovic
but do we not see a problem with RE
@WSOP
when one of the best players in the world is able to enter 7 times into a single event and ends up winning? Amateur players have no shot at beating the best multiple times in these fields.
@padspoker
I tipped zero as an American getting hit with huge tax bill, feel like if I’m a non tax paying pro i tip 1%. Roast me if you want🤷🏻♂️. Fwiw I’m a huge tipper but with rake+additional staff fee, why should there be this added pressure to tip?
As much as I am very much against these sub 1k buy ins increasing year over year
@WSOP
it is important to note that growth in the industry is happening at that level and you can’t blame a business for targeting the price point most likely to suceeed.
The skill gap in NL increasingly is becoming wider. It’s important long term to protect the eco system and give these guys a chance at the glory as it’s already hard enough to get through the pros once, let alone 2-3-4x ect entries per pro.
I know this has been mentioned a bunch this summer but I’ll remind
@WSOP
how dumb you are to have a tournament with the same set of chips for the main days before that is 1/11th of the buyin.
@RealKidPoker
As someone who bet a lot on the other side i was starting to really not care if you made the comeback and lost me $ cause i thought it would be pretty hilarious for all the shit Doug has said over the years but after seeing this I’m max oi mate, hope you get showered
Losing my fucking mind at payouts. Been here 90 mins to get a check for less than the amount I brought a check here for but we need to verify that sir. It clearly shows in your system I brought a check here. I feel like a fucking prisoner in this shithole right now

Been worried about this for years and lack of any security out there as absolute joke esp when they got rid of valet, just hang people out to dry.
Knocked over an older couples bags sprinting down an escalator to catch a train that I ended up missing, to which the guy chewed my ass out and I actually didn’t feel bad for some reason. After 4 years living in the area, I am finally a New Yorker.

Yeah JJ is great, gonna slide into a nice 2nd career when he’s all said and done. Funny how much I hated him in college going to UMD and now he’s been one of my fav NBA players for years and one of my fav pods.
@RealKidPoker
Can’t wait for the vlogs, still watch every single one. Thanks for grinding those, can’t imagine doing them on top of the volume you put in each summer. Gl this year.

Couldn’t diasagree more. Creating more variance in NL cash games is a must. The game has a stale and boring format when played w/o an ante or 3rd blind. Anything that creates action and gets people stuck(which is great for games) is always always always a good thing!
