she is a sweetheart who is newer to poker and simply follows her instincts. She will/has made mistakes in the other direction & shouldn't be expected to relinquish profits from this decision
@HCLPokerShow
Behind on current details and don't think I have much to add. My read still stands that the hand was not immensely ool from her other behaviour as a newer player
I am however annoyed & disgusted by the biases and level of scrutiny because she's a hot woman. Terrible for the game
Historic day for women in poker.

wins most $ on any stream within a few live sessions of playing the game, I reach 20k followers on bird app after 12 years of being here half-assedly. Thank you for being on this journey with us 🤓
My mom arrived in Canada with $30 in her pocket, I used to get hit for using a full square of paper towel, made own money since 12 often with multiple jobs, then started poker playing 1/2 limit at charity casino & sold action on 2p2 before my big breaks. But tell me more about
Thank you all for the lovely bday wishes, each one made my heart flutter a little bit.
Think I've finally reached an age and place in life where I'm not dodging being made to feel special, and think it'll only get better from here!

Welcome to the team,

This is my way of pulling out of the sadness from the biggest downswing of my life - put on some makeup, wear some pink, and go eat hot pot/go watch a feel-good movie

Knew what a special privilege it was to play on High Stakes Poker with you recently. Thanks for helping create the entire industry that would mold the trajectory of my life
Shitty joke but am actually quite impressed by how Chris Rock handled that.
Backing off from a violent confrontation when someone is testing you instead of going primal takes a lot.
And c'mon Will what are we doing here? You're a grown ass man, & Jada is not that fragile

Played with Tony all day to my left. Learned about his incredible story and glad he only told me he donates every penny he wins from poker to homeless shelters with 20m left in the day because I would've surrendered every single pot
And If you think being asked to wear a mask in confined spaces during a pandemic is tyrannical and an infringement on your personal freedom, but you're not outraged that women can't make their own pregnancy decisions after 6 weeks, you need to be more honest about your values
Getting some fresh air on break of the

Ladies Event today I'd like to remind everyone that the assignment is to accumulate all of the chips ❤️
Congrats Daniel. Don't always agree with his opinions but would be insincere if I didn't acknowledge that he was a big inspiration for me falling in love with the game and all its larger than life characters

As if I wasn't a huge fan of
@jasminericegirl
and her candidness already - love that she's not afraid of being vulnerable and embarrassed about the reality of a lot of the Asian immigrant experience
junior year of high school my emotionally abusive mom stopped taking me to school & tried to withdraw me to fuck with my education. i called the cops, got emancipated, moved out, and supported myself at 17 so i could keep going to school. i graduated valedictorian with a 4.0
Somebody hire me in esports or I'm really going to get into real estate and be a stable boring person who stays put and has a normal and well-adjusted life with no fomo whatsoever. I will fuckin do it.
Don't usually watch myself on screen but this was a dream - can't wait to get in the mix with more high stakes cash games soon.
Thank you again

Understandable that RIP would advocate for his friend. If anyone remembers he was the player who put me in a tough spot with AK the last session on show. They are amateur players who love putting opponents in high-pressure spots & don't really care about the outcome, not cheaters
Have Wesley from

@Jake11291
at day 2 table
So far Wesley has asked me how old I am twice and after I scooped first pot he said there's a Chinese proverb that says winning first pot is unlucky
Then he won a 200k pot off me

Sometimes you start the week in Texas with gambling and debauchery and just need to go back to Canada for a bit to reset

Was more like the windshield wipers today, but some of the most fun I've ever had playing poker. Check out the stream, it's S tier entertainment
Thanks
@LodgePokerClub
for having me!
Want to know how to pick up a cute girl at the poker table?
I don't date poker pros anymore but I know a few things about what works when it comes to escalating things with someone you're attracted to while playing poker.

A lot of excitement in the two hours I lasted in Day 4 - I made the money but busted shortly afterwards. Still giving away that 2.5%, though wish it was a lot more
And now gl to poker momma bear baddie
@dmoongirl
Day 1 in Ontario was decent
A little nervous when I had half my live roll on the table for a bit 😬
Can almost afford a one way ticket to Churchill, Manitoba to see some polar bears
PSA for Vegas players: two double-vaccinated friends just tested positive for Covid and are symptomatic. One after a Vegas poker trip and one in LA. Be safe and wear a mask. Good for you if you think you are somehow immune, but try to be considerate of others and wear a mask.
We lost our grandma to a brain tumour at 95. She raised 6 kids & was a teacher during the Chinese Civil War & Japanese Occupation. She was my primary caregiver for most of my childhood & I always saw a lot of myself in her.
She passed away peacefully & surrounded by loved ones.
As eager as I am to play poker in short bursts again I am a little burned out from the past couple of months and allowing myself some time to reset - moving body, making comfort foods, and spending time with my furball
