@Itsasetup777 @luxonpay @WSOP @GGPoker @Kevmath They’re making it hard to refuse, but they dont make finding info easy about anything

You might as well stick to hiding because grand jury talk isn’t enough. Everyone already knows Maxwell/Epstein are guilty. We want the people who participated to go down too, not to hear a grand jury confirm that Maxwell/Epstein are guilty.

President Trump—we are ready to move the court tomorrow to unseal the grand jury transcripts.

@RichTRyan I mean say something to staff, I think its a comparable situation. Assuming you were certain of what you saw

@ScottBaumstein Seems very difficult to corroborate, but in this hypothetical you would obviously report on it and thus “say something.”

@FarazJaka Wynn doesn’t have anything to prove any more. They had tremendous success the past 2 years and the community seems to love their events more than any other venue. They couldn’t top last year’s gte or WSOPs so let WSOP sweat theirs out even if they have a slight drop in numbers.

@FLCarguy And you as well Andrew. Good luck in the rest of the series!

@ScottBaumstein Nice playing with you in the $400 Turbo at the Hard Rock last night. You were a true gentleman at the table and I learned a lot from watching you play !

Imagine talking about growing the game and simultaneously putting the @WSOP main event final table behind a paywall. Greedy pigs
English

@FarazJaka @WSOP How about the fact that @wsop made a public statement that this was specifically for events 10k+ then applied it seemingly for all events over 1500 while never saying anything about it….
English

Just saw over 30 people get turned away (as per the new rule) from playing the @wsop $3k event because they registered on time but arrived too late to get their seat assignment at the late reg desk.
Many criticize WSOP for only caring about rake, but in this instance, they are losing around $10k in fees to protect game integrity. Hats off to them for that.
It’s unfortunate for those 30 and feels crappy, but once it happens, you’ll likely never let it happen again. It will take some time for people to become aware of this new rule, but it will soon become the new standard.
For those wondering about the rule: When you late register and a large % of the field is already knocked out, there's an advantage to waiting longer to get seated, getting closer to the money without losing chips to blinds. Many players exploited this by registering last minute and delaying their arrival at the late reg desk, effectively stealing equity from those already seated.
Rules and standards evolve, usually for the better. The transition period can be tough and takes some getting used to, but that’s the nature of progress.

@cuntycakes123 This happened at Hard Rock last year with the bounty and he won pokernews.com/news/2023/04/m…

@FarazJaka Feels like we are top of range w/ river bet sizing, villain would interpret (probably correctly) we would go bigger w/ boats. We block boats w/ the 7 to go along w/ straight making it a good straight combo to call w/ and shove is a little less than pot. If hes got it hes got it

Student shared this hand from the $10k $10m GTD Wynn WPT Main.
Blinds 500/1k he has 36k chips in BB 8❤️7♠️
BU raise 2k off a bigger stack, he calls.
Flop J♠️T♠️7❤️ check check
Turn 9♣️ he leads 3k into 5.5k, call
River 9❤️ he bets 6k into 17.5k, guy goes all in for 32k
1. Do you call or fold vs villains jam here? It was vs. a mid-takes pro.
2. Do you like my student's line and bet sizing so far, or would you do anything different.
I'll post my thoughts/results later tonight.

One of the most maddening payouts I’ve seen in a long long time….
OrleansPokerRoom@OrleansPokerRo1
Just a cool $200,000 for first today. Over 1.4 million in the prize pool with 360 players coming back with a shot at the title. Chip counts and seat assignments are coming shortly

@LandonTice On second thought, this has to be a troll post

@gazelligpoker If you dont open this hand then you arent really protected from opening any hand at all. This also seems like a clear check back for all the reasons you listed, not to mention how its a pretty terrible hand to bet/call with considering how it interferes with opponents bluff range
