    Another @WSOP final table, another close call. 3rd place out of 3.446 entries. The heartbreak is real right now ❤️‍🩹. Every time I make a deep run in a big #poker tourney, any expectation and excitement is very quickly tempered with the reality that the outcome won’t always reflect

    The first time I met Doyle was 15 years ago. He was gracious, funny, and kind. The last time I had the honor of playing #poker with him was last year, and this is how I’ll remember him: sharp as ever and had me in awe of his presence until the end. Legends never die. #RIPDoyle

    I shoved the river in 3-bet pot in the #WSOP $3,000 6-max, and the guy tanks and finally folds. Another guy, not in the hand, says show the bluff (I wasn’t planning on showing.) Guy that folded say’s if you show a bluff, I’ll pay you $1000. 😮 Guess who’s now $1000 richer? #poker

    Yeah, sex is cool but have you ever beaten a whole game of Street Fighter on just one quarter?

    Regarding the Garrett and Robbi hand, there’s a responsibility to exercise restraint if you are a credible voice in #poker. We should be seeking the truth and not aiming for likes or clicks- it can be more damaging to our community in the long run.
