Monday's POTD has been posted early. You can guess what hand it is about. It is unlocked and free for all. puntoftheday.com/p/potd-261

@SamGreenwoodRIO So you had a few notes. Can’t wait to read them.

👀

@SamGreenwoodRIO @nanonoko I’m voting for emergency POTDs to become a thing.

@nanonoko You know it.

I am going to say the thing everyone is thinking. Elton has a really tough spot with TT as does Sternheimer with JJ.

@bp22 @AnthropicAI Quite possible they’re operating near capacity. Compute and demand tend to reconcile slowly.

Starting to doubt @AnthropicAI future growth. Several api issues may point to significant demand, but also may point to an inability to meet that demand.

@RealKidPoker @Uncommonsince76 @grok You shouldn’t count on an LLM to authenticate a video. It can’t reliably tell.

@Uncommonsince76 Hey @grok is this real? It seems hard to believe that these men would admit to rape on camera, is this actually legitimate?

British Guy- “Do you think about the consequences of rape?” African guy- “Yeah we think about that. What if she screams and wakes someone up?” British guy- “No. I’m talking about abuse of the girl.” African guy- “Yeah we might get STD’s….” 😳 😳

@jeremyausmus I’d be game, but how would you verify compliance?

Anyone up for a no caffeine bet for the month of April? Would like to bet 5k or more. Have to be a regular caffeine consumer. I've found this habit is a hard one to kick, even temporarily.

@dog_rates I hope it involves puppies.

This is Breuer. He's here to let you know it's National Puppy Day. Doesn't know what that means but hopes it involves snacks. 12/10

@Tim__Duckworth @PokerGOTour When’s this? :)

I'm working on a NLH Heads-Up series for the @PokerGOTour and need the experts to weigh in. It will be a 32-player cap, and buy-ins are $3k, $5k, and then $10k. Shot clock will be in play. ⏰Should we do number of hands per level or set time per level? 📈 Should hands or time for levels increase when you advance to next round?

Tfw you’re reluctant to overexplain for fear of sounding condescending, but the inferential path isn’t shared and it lands as a non sequitur.

@pokerorg @tritonpoker Or not.

@pokerorg @tritonpoker Absolument.

Jean-Noel Thorel, the elder statesman of the @TritonPoker Super High Roller Series, has a chance to notch his first title tomorrow. Will the Frenchman close out the win? poker.org/latest-news/78…

A hookah lounge in Dubai with only male patrons just turns off the lights at a certain hour.

Longevity/biohacking enthusiasts living in a high-pollution environment like Dubai are a good example of how branding and lifestyle aesthetics can override basic reasoning. Anyway, happy to have my VO2 max back up. :)

@SamGreenwoodRIO I was inviting the anti-coinflippers you exiled to the cash streets, but if you want a seat, who am I to object? :)

@Be2the9s Name a time and place :)

My thoughts on "avoiding flips". Don't do it!

Inadvertently entered a PLO MTT. That was interesting. 😄

Claude just made the boxes in Newcomb’s paradox transparent because I added an argument for one-boxing. Lol, no!

If you accept that brains are biological information-processing systems, and that sentience confers moral status, you need an argument for why artificial nervous systems couldn’t qualify. Not just discomfort with the idea.

@padspoker I do think she should have been more careful with her wording. Claiming a definitive security risk without the technical knowledge to back it up is irresponsible. (And this is coming from someone who has their own criticisms of Coin.)

I’ve taken the last couple hours myself to read everything back (I was rage posting earlier with 20 tables in the background - do not recommend) Reading back everything now I think you were in your right and you were looking after the communities best interests by posting what you did. The facts ended up being that nobody was effected, no balances tampered with, nobody had anything stolen however the facts remain that there was potential vulernabilities. I think I was triggered by the initial language but that’s not really an excuse. You shouldn’t have to apologise for what you said initially and I shouldn’t have been aggressive against that too. Asking to get your 10 closest friends invoked was just ego driven from my side and I know deep down that’s never going to happen obviously. Unnecessary virtual signaling. FWIW I think she’s a great ambassador for the game both on the table (not angling granny’s) and online (sketches along with Big Li are the best in the business) I read more into the charity we invested in today and I’ll be playing the CoinPoker main event and will donate 100% of what I win there to the charity. I’ll give it my all. Keep doing you & sorry.

“Trust your gut” is useful advice, but the gut is a sensitivity alarm, not a verdict. It reacts to uncertainty, asymmetry, subtle cues. It’s probabilistic risk detection, not proof of someone’s character.
