I’m a few days from being fully vaccinated. Been a rough year, but I tried to focus on things I could control, like my health (~250 to 180lbs)
If you’re in WNY, let’s hang out, grab a meal/beer, etc.
Not sure what the first poker trip is yet, but hoping to see everyone soon👍🏻

- The lottery is a ridiculous scam, insanely predatory and absolutely absurd that it’s legal compared to other methods of gambling that are deemed illegal.
- Can we all agree that the person who pulls the $1m bounty in the WSOP mystery bounty tournament can never complain about a poker hand again in their lifetime?
- I am a chick magnet walking through any Vegas caisno at 3am. Didn’t realize I had such game.
- Two players threaten to fight each other after one tells the other he must suck the dealers dick for good river cards. Me, awkwardly, after a moment of silence, trying to break the tension: “you know, it’s really not as bad as it sounds.” My comment didn’t help.
- get back in line to fire your second bullet in colossus watch a $50k plo player pull out five bricks, tossing it at the cashier like chump change nobody in line knows you had to martingale your money at electronic roulette to go from $380 to $400. Black first spin. No sweat.
- Raise to 2k at 800bb with aces, end up losing a pot to two pair Lady next to me, as my opponent is scooping the pot, leans over and tells me “just so you know, raising to only 2000 with aces isn’t enough” 😂
- Kassouf is now unedited on feature table C in the pokergo app if you want to see antics and ramblings like these
00:00 - Six people at my table didn’t know throwing out two 500 denomination chips at 600bb constituted a call. The buyin is $10k
- You are watching live coverage of the WSOP on PokerGo brought to you by GG Poker presented by PokerStars, with heads up action made fun by ClubWPTGold
- “Why not give this poker thing a shot?” you tell yourself. What’s the worst that can happen? Ten years later, it’s 4AM. There’s been 15 hands dealt during hand-for-hand play on the bubble. The tournament buyin is $200.
- Live poker: Get two outted on the river for $25k equity, sigh, calmly stand up, tell opponents good game Online poker: Lose a 60/40 for five starting stacks in level six, yell every curse word in the book, try as hard as you can not to throw your mouse across the room and fail.
- 1) it’s so bad for poker the main event FT (and poker coverage in general) isn’t on ESPN anymore. Caesars should’ve paid them to keep the rights. 2) really would love a “players stream” with Ali and Nick, and that obviously isn’t a slight to Lon/Norm/Jamie. Different audiences.
