@OrleansPokerRo1 You guys used to have NL 2-7 SD events, something I always looked forward to on the calendar!

If there was ever any doubt that we're the mixed game capital, here's your mixed game schedule for the summer! $1,500,000 in guarantees for mixed games alone

@tamhussein Great read, so much of the training in all skills goes unnoticed, so that for many, the results are not well understood anymore.

“As I write this, there are young fools (for what else can they be?) seemingly determined to irritate me, posting images of four heavyweights — Tyson, Fury, Joshua and Paul — side by side, and posing the question: Who would walk out if you locked these four in a room? To me, that question is the equivalent of me taking photos on my iPhone and displaying them in the same exhibition as a veteran war correspondent like Don McCullin, and then asking whose images are better.” My latest for @newlinesmag

@nummanali @mattpocockuk @leerob Is there someone you'd recommend for Claude Code?

There are currently only two good educators - IMO - in the Era of AI that give you more than an LLM can give you as a beginner That’s @mattpocockuk and @leerob ⛩️

"You might want to watch the recent film Her (2013), starring Joaquin Phoenix and Scarlett Johansson. It’s set in 2025...This is where I get on the train, we’re so wildly early." zhengdongwang.com/2025/12/30/202…

Denis Villeneuve talks about his desire to direct RENDEZVOUS WITH RAMA: “There's a possibility of adapting an Arthur C. Clarke novel, ‘RENDEZVOUS WITH RAMA’. Like ‘2001: A Space Odyssey’ it’s about astronauts coming into contact with another civilization. It’s an exploration where we engage with technology that could realistically exist in the future, unlike ‘DUNE’, which leans more toward fantasy. For the first time, I’d be able to work on hard science fiction. I’d love to do that at least once in my life.” (via @KonbiniFr)

At Stripe Sessions, @patrickc and @collision skillfully describe the “gale force tailwinds” of AI and stablecoins… Here’s John showing the first 24mo payment volume growth for Bridge (stablecoins) vs Stripe Whole presentation worth watching

@OrleansPokerRo1 Ah no schedule overlay with the $1500 WSOP 2-7 Single Draw :\

Over $3,800,000 in guaranteed prize pools coming to The Orleans this summer! Tons of mixed game action with buy-ins from $240 to $1,100 and No Limit Hold'em will range from $125 to $800. We can't wait to see everybody this summer!!

@winamaxeurope what happened to Gus' Main Event season, and why are we starting at EP08 for Mateos?

Lessons Learned From Six (and a half) Failed Startup Attempts "...I like the person I've become, someone who can fail again and again and again and again and still find a way, for the most part, to be happy." blog.rongarret.info/2025/01/i-am-n…

@chanian “I don't even see the code. All I see is blonde, brunette, wheel.”

🤖Training and watching my computer play through +200MM hands of triple draw Poker (badugi) in 5 seconds. built this new ui allowing me to observe it 'learn' still searching for Nash Equilibrium... almost there

RIP Caviar's OG 404 startup cat, @ramenmew. You fought the good fight and free of cancer now. It's a magical world, Ramen ol' buddy. Let's go exploring!

@bymichaelrosen @DefectorMedia Great post, but wishing the best to you and Filipa's chemo.

for @DefectorMedia i wrote about saberseminar and friendship and my life defector.com/looking-for-fr…

This sounds like a trivial observation and it isn’t: No organization which makes its people pay for coffee wants to win.

@KevmathVegas @GNLVpoker Ah this looks like it was a Triple Draw, not SD. Aside from the Orleans and WSOP, have you see any other NL 2-7 SD spread across other casinos?

Today at 11am, @GNLVpoker runs a $700 NL Single Draw 2-7 Lowball tournament

@snboxing Care to elaborate more? I enjoyed his progression going pro, thought he had a slick switch-hitting style going on.

Not surprised that Sylve lost. It was coming.

@melotones Going for it like the money doesn't matter is the new pro tag

so many epic punts this year #wsopmainevent

@melotones Ggs

been rooting hard for foxen to make it to the FT. manifesting for 2025, our time will come! gg #wsopmainevent

@SWPique Curious, why did MGM get rid of the $500 2-7 Single Draw event?
