2nd place for my largest career score of $196,000! Thank you all for the support!- Guy at my table asked me why I blocked him on Twitter Then he says who he is. And says: "Hey, all I said to you was that gay people shouldn't be able to adopt." So, if you see me wearing pride stuff this year and wonder if it is needed. The answer is: Yes.
- For the first time in my career I am on the official Final Table of a World Poker Tour event. @WPT I am 6/6, but with only 5 people between me and $443,000 and the trophy, anything can happen! @StakeKings @ChipLDR @CardsChat @LearnProPoker
- Chopped it 3 ways. Getting 200k in total. (185.5+14.5) My 1st 200k+ score. 🥳🥹🥹🥹
- The best advice I can give about how to think about poker: When playing vs recreational players you want to focus on what your HAND wants to do vs their range. (EXPLOIT) When vs pros you want to focus on what your RANGE wants to do vs their range. (THEORY) @LearnProPoker
- Now that live poker is coming back here are some important tips: #1 - Bankroll management is life. If you can't afford to lose the money, DO NOT PLAY! Good rule = Have 100 buy-ins or more for an event. If full time, 200 buy-ins and 1yr living expense on top. #2 - See rule 1
- Please do your best, especially in fields like this, to be kind and welcoming. For a large portion of the field this will be their first event @WSOP. The more great experiences people have the more willing they will be to come back and play more. Best of luck to everyone!
