The World Series of Poker experience is basically flying United Airlines:
Flight delays waiting for a crew = tournaments delayed waiting for dealers
Main cabin = ten handed
Bag of chips $9 = Bag of chips $9
Fights over the armrest = fights over the table not being square
People clapping when the plane lands = people clapping when they’re in the money
Crying babies = take your pick
The safety demonstration = pre tournament announcements (no one’s actually listening)
Mystery delays with no end in sight = mystery delays with no end in sight
What am I missing?
One of the best parts of poker is sitting next to people from all walks of life - different races, genders, ages. It’s the only game where you could be sitting next to a 45 yo cowboy, a 21 yo in a hoodie and across from a 70 yo grandma - and they’re all trying to felt you.
Today I busted Choctaws $3,700 tourney bc of a miss click. Player opens 12k at 400 BB, I Have TT and am forced to go with this hand. I have 13,800 chips. If the 5ks and 100 chips at @ChoctawCasinos didn’t look so similar, this would not have happened sigh TT<A3.
@BronsonT518@AllenKessler@shrpo@SHRTPoker Im sure some scenes will be caused but hopefully they quickly realize business can require mask legally. I’m just glad the business owners get to decide what’s best for the company they own and provides for their family.
@WWar9@AllenKessler@shrpo@SHRTPoker In a vacuum I would agree with this, if everyone was like you. Instead, businesses that want to continue the mask requirement will now be dealing with foot-stomping toddlers who insist that Abbott says they can't do that.
Please poker tournament directors, if you want people to feel comfortable playing you need safety protocols like @shrpo or @SHRTPoker.
Making a weak effort like this wont cut it in my book.
@BronsonT518@AllenKessler@shrpo@SHRTPoker I guess that’s now for each business owner to decide what’s best for the business on their own. They are more then welcome to require mask to enter the establishment, if they do I will gladly put a mask on. But that is now for the business to decide which I think is great
@WWar9@AllenKessler@shrpo@SHRTPoker Well, I'm not alone for one. For two, when they have an outbreak among their employees and then have to close down completely while fighting through it, we shall see. Also when immunocompromised employees leave b/c they no longer have safe environ b/c cloth hurt facey and feelies
@BronsonT518@AllenKessler@shrpo@SHRTPoker While they have lost yours, they are now allowed to open to 100%. I think most business owners will be fine with losing you.
If Biden completes the turnaround, would this be the most miraculous come from behind win for president ever?
At his absolute valley some sites had him at +700 and now he is -450
