Won my second @WSOP circuit ring today at @GVCElgin! Super grateful and blessed to have such a lucky run of cards. I maxed this after finishing in 18th place in the monster stack just 40 mins prior. Had an absolute blast! Anyway, back to reporting!

The universe is a time machine and the math on the distance ladder will break your brain. 2,000 light-years gets you Rome. Go to 500 light-years and you're watching the Black Plague consume Europe in real time. At 80 light-years, you catch World War II. At 4.24 light-years, the nearest star system, Alpha Centauri, the light arriving right now left Earth in 2022. Someone there is watching us argue about whether GPT-4 is sentient. Now scale that in the other direction. The Andromeda Galaxy is 2.5 million light-years away. An observer there right now sees Earth before modern humans existed. They're watching early hominids figure out stone tools. They have no idea what's coming. The closest alien civilization is statistically estimated at 33,000 light-years away. They would be watching humans invent agriculture for the first time. Writing hasn't been invented yet. Cities don't exist. From their perspective, we are a species that just figured out how to plant wheat. Here's what makes the physics cruel. To actually see a human-sized object on Earth from just 20 light-years away, you'd need a telescope array roughly 100 million kilometers across. That's more than half the diameter of Earth's orbit around the Sun. To see Rome from 2,000 light-years? The optics required would be larger than our solar system. The light is real. The photons that bounced off Roman soldiers are still traveling outward at 300,000 km/s right now, carrying that information forever. The universe has a perfect recording of every moment in Earth's history, expanding in all directions at the speed of light. The problem was never distance. The problem is that no civilization, no matter how advanced, can build a lens big enough to read it.

Did you know🚨: A civilization 2,000 light-years away looking at Earth today would see the Roman Empire.

People don’t even realize how on point his statement is…One of the most candid parts of the interview involves coin flips. McKeehen bluntly states — tournament poker is full of them, especially when stacks are low. Win a few in a row, and you look like a genius. Lose them, and the same decisions suddenly seem foolish. Fans remember the winners. They forget the player who lost a coin flip that would have propelled them to chiplead. Joe finds this more amusing than frustrating. He humorously notes that if everyone perfectly understood how poker works, there would be far less money in the game.

When you play poker for a living it trains you to put your feeling aside so you can keep playing well, not letting your emotions effect your decisions. This is very important for a players bottom line. However, recently I've realized that being in the habit of muting your emotions isn't healthy in many other areas of your life. Sure it can give you resilience throughout the day but avoiding these emotions eventually leads to you feeling numb to a lot of things in life. Recently, I'm trying to focus on them more and really feel them and then move on. Maybe at the table isn't the ideal times for this but eventually you need to process these emotions. I'm already finding that being in tune with your mind and body and not shoving feelings to the side definitely has benefits.

The highlight of my time in the booth the last 3 days was the exchange with @rishrmehta and @NotSpewheb about a mystery bounty, and a Mini Horse? Check it out starting at 5:02. I was dying of laughter and on mute for 2 straight minutes. Hope to do it again! Neigggh youtube.com/watch?v=Tet7y1…
