@AceMagnets @CMONEYMAKER @SavagePoker @VenetianPoker Black Friday decimated live poker and we def never recovered from that fully
English

While stubbornly high prices in Vegas are definitely contributing to this trend, I think there has been downward pressure on real money poker everywhere for a while. We are in the leading indicator phase and should be finding ways to overcorrect before it’s too late.

The 4.5-year-old Resorts World poker room is closing at the end of the month. This will leave just eight active poker rooms on the Vegas Strip.

@kwansfull @CMONEYMAKER @SavagePoker Good point, I wonder if RW survives with more states legal and funneling satellites into the NAPT. I'm not a big vlog watcher but I remember a lot of streamers playing there as well, RIP to that. Not sure who allows that now on the strip, just @VenetianPoker?

@AceMagnets @CMONEYMAKER Agree *some* consolidation is better to prevent cannibalization (@SavagePoker supports this a bit), without it going too far obv so we don’t get monopolies. But that’s a side benefit, while the overall trend is concerning.

@DevilfishF2P @jessbeckpoker @RGPokerSeries @GratonPoker Dennis made it a battle. Flopped the set, check raised and turn the deuce on the final hand after he survived multiple all ins.

@jackmoses0 I loved to play strategy board games and rattle off odds and percentages throughout the day. Now I'm at my most meditative and relaxed at a poker table.

A hint at your incarnation task is what you were doing naturally in childhood.
Before programming kicked in and the world told you how you should act, you naturally gravitated towards certain activities without effort.
These natural proclivities point towards your spiritual essence.
Others would call this your life’s work, your zone of genius, or your domain of mastery.
But from the perspective of the soul, it is why you came into this life.
When I was a kid, I gravitated towards a few activities without being told to:
- Building forts and lincoln logs
- Writing stories and books
- Playing sports with friends
I never did so out of obligation or force.
They were natural express expressions of my innate nature.
Through spiritual work and self remembrance, I have arrived at a current expression that matches the nature of my childhood.
I know deepening into building structures, writing, and bringing people together in community and playing sports / music are huge parts of my soul’s task.
And because I’m doing these things now, I live a life that gratefully feels incredibly aligned.
So take an objective look at your childhood.
What were you doing naturally?
What did you gravitate towards without being told what to do?
What could you get lost in for hours — an activity where you never feel like you were forcing action?
These expressions hints at the natural essence of your soul.
Your task is to remember who you were before society told you to be somebody else, an engineer your life so you can live in complete alignment with why your soul came here in the first place.

Dream spot for Mitchell Halverson holding pockets aces with 13 left in the $2,200 NLH 6-Max at @WynnPoker during the Wynn Millions 🏆 But can he HOLD for the double knockout? 💥

Someone at my table mentioned a new poker format that seems to be popular on the East Coast.
It's called a no limit "Revival" Tournament.
You get one revival chip.
At any point in the event, even at the final table, if you bust you receive a 20bb stack for your revival chip.
Would you play this format?
What strategy changes would there be especially on the bubble and at the final table?
