WE DID IT #82and0

YOU ALL HAVE BEEN ASKING AND I'M EXCITED TO SHARE A DAY IN THE LIFE OF THE GRIND WITH A NEW POKER VLOG ON MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE

Poker vlogs have become what poker podcasts were in the 2010s as the self-serving content medium that no one actually wants.

♦️Stopped by @DallasChampions for their soft opening last night, and played poker all night, and it did not disappoint. The club is truly one of the most beautiful buildings in all of Texas, and for them to offer poker in such a luxurious and special way - it truly feels like a Las Vegas high roller experience, similar to the #bellagio, #aria or #wynn. ♠️ I couldn't recommend checking it out more - now is the time! Initiation fees and monthly dues are being waived until June 1st - it's only $60 to play all day, and yes, they've had at least one game going every day from open to close. ❤️ I hope to see everyone on Founders' Weekend and at the Grand Opening Festivities Sat/Sun June 30-31. FYI, they will be giving away complimentary membership prizes and amazing food by the amazing Chef Connie. @phil_hellmuth when will you be making an appearance? 🤔 📋 Membership info: https:// championsdallas.com/membership/

@Stapes congratulations!!

Now I’m seeing this post in the clear light of day, I want to recognize what an honor it is and how excited I am to be a part of this world class brand and team. We’re going to have a lot of fun on poker’s biggest stage and hopefully make it even bigger.

Who wore it better? @Jbex2417

@teddythepuggie @Tim__Duckworth @ChampionsClubTX we've been in touch 🤝

@sampsonsimmons @Tim__Duckworth @ChampionsClubTX I bet there’s some former lodge employees that need work

As we ramp up content efforts here at @ChampionsClubTX we're looking for talented videographers and editors who know poker, chess, and/or other games. Please reach out if you're a creative who fits the bill and looking for periodic work. RTs appreciated.

@gorjesshtx @ChampionsClubTX slide in!

@sampsonsimmons @ChampionsClubTX Ummmm hi it’s me jess

@THEBrettKimes @ChampionsClubTX DMs not open but followed and hmu!

@sampsonsimmons @ChampionsClubTX Hey Sam, I'd love to speak with you when you have some free time. If you want to DM me we can set something up.

It's as good a time as any to belatedly announce I've joined the team at @ChampionsClubTX as VP of Marketing! Glad to be back asking @phil_hellmuth to do things for clicks. 🫶

YOU VS PHIL HELLMUTH! Tonight at 9PM. Do you have what it takes to go up against the GOAT?

I will be there no matter what

@jeffplatt @PokerGO @BuffaloHanks anything positive anyone has to say about your work falls short of the truth. you deserve all of your success and more. it was a pleasure to play a very small part. 🤝 see ya on the flip side buddy boy. 😈

This is not a goodbye, but I do want to take a moment to thank the entire team @PokerGO for the opportunities that they've given me throughout the years. @buffalohanks, who somehow became CEO and somehow became one of my best friends…what a treat it was to share the broadcast booth with somebody so passionate about this game, and so focused on sharing that passion with every single potential viewer. Poker Hall of Famer Mori Eskandani built an incredible work environment, and I consider myself extremely lucky to have been part of it. Mori, Dan Gati, and @sampsonsimmons brought me in back in 2018, and fully supported me throughout my entire career. I'll never forget that. El Jefe, Cary Katz, has been instrumental to the poker world in helping to bring our game to such an important audience. Too many other people to expand upon in one social media post, but I will at least say thank you to Donnie, Commish, Remko, Jess, Antonio, John, Aidan, Hays/Drew, Zach, George, Pat, Sara, Shaun, Hayley, Jay, Dave, Justin, Paul, Daniel, David, LIZ THE GOAT FLOOR DIRECTOR, Jimmy, Joey, James, Bianca, Jason, Mackenzie, Marcos, Kevin, Bob, Remy, Willie, Michael, Cletus, Ryan, Keegan, Jim, Joe, Brandon, Amanda, Pang, Andrew, Mike, Ben, Colin, Boris, Matt, Lara, Hunter, Rich, and Brenna. (major anxiety that I missed somebody) And Producer/Editor Joseph for all the clips! It's been an honor to work with you all and I know/hope we'll have plenty more to accomplish together in the future. Most importantly, thank you to the viewers…we're passionate about what we do but without that passion in return, none of this exists.

There's been lots of delicious controversy over the new @WPT Wildcard format. 🤤 Thank you to @pokerorg + @CraigTapscott for the interview allowing us to share the method to the madness and tease the fun we plan to have in the months ahead. poker.org/latest-news/gt…
