@VegasHayls The TABC had enough to get a warrant to investigate and make their case stronger. No charges filed doesn’t mean there won’t be charges filed. I’ve been involved in something like this before and charges didn’t come till 1.5 years after shut down.

“No charges have yet been filed against the business” Make sure to read the article before commenting. I agree that this looks like a witch hunt. I would not be surprised if someone who is an enemy of Dougs made a false report causing this whole fiasco tbh. The fact that there

@dfsbrat Obviously I can’t speak to what is in your mind, but you may someday find it helpful to consider him more of a concerned parent or friend than an enemy. My inner critic is a protective part who learned to manage like my mother. She means well, and showing her compassion helps

I never knew this about you. Thanks so much for sharing this. Emotional intelligence is a rare thing that most have never even heard of before. One of the best sayings I try to live by is a quote from sun tzu. roughly translated is “know your enemy and know yourself and you will always be a victorious.” The enemy in my case is the person within myself and I’m finally started getting to know him. is taking half my life to realize it but thank you for sharing. This means a lot.

I was raised by two poker players. In my teens, I was essentially taught that my emotions were inconvenient and unimportant. Obviously, suppressing my emotions became a useful skill when I started playing poker in my 20s, but by my 30s I had developed anxiety. As someone who’s

@cballboy That’s awesome :)

@_danhell Wonderfully said, I actually started going to therapy about 3 years ago dealing with this exact thing. I didn't feel much emotions outside of poker, and I felt like that was a problem. It's been a work in progress, but I've made great progress in my emotional intelligence since

@ThePokerBoss All cards must be tabled. As soon as Player A turns his 5 face down, his hand is dead.

Ruling Scenario – Seven Card Stud: Showdown. Player A has four diamonds showing. He turns over one down card, revealing the Jack of diamonds for a flush. His other two down cards remain unexposed. Player B tables all seven cards and shows Aces and Four. Two pair. Player A mistakenly believes he sees a full house. He takes his five exposed cards, the flush, turns them face down onto the two unexposed hole cards, and mucks all seven. Now what? Who wins the pot? Does the exposed flush play? Or does the muck kill the hand completely?

@GmanPoker @DougPolkVids @LodgePokerClub Doug eventually learned something about exploits after losing heavily during his first 6 months at the lodge.

@DougPolkVids I would not like to play. Instead, you, me, and 2-3 mouth breathers play 5K live hands @LodgePokerClub stream. Whoever wins more/loses less gets a large bounty and we settle this GTO vs exploit thing once and for all.

Officially announcing my new HUNL open challenge. If you can beat me over 5,000 hands at 100/200+, you win a 25k bounty. Challenges will take place over 3 days. Each match I win increases the bounty by 25k. If I win 3 in a row, the 4th and final match will have a 100k

@MattGlantz @WSOP @EWassPoker @BennyGlaser Why do I feel like I’m being gaslit 😂

Poker world has the epic @WSOP slow roll all wrong. Actually a selfless act by @EWassPoker. By tanking Aces, Eric was giving @BennyGlaser every possible second to ladder $200k if someone busted at other table. Most people just take the chips. Wass gave the gift of time. 💪

@rainstormblue The visual is awful. I figured it out by saying aloud man + parrot = 200 and m-p=170. Then it clicked for me: m =185 and p = 15

i have a PhD in maths from the university of cambridge and i can’t solve this

@Dweisman13 I don’t know but when I do, I’ll reach out :) lmk if you make it to Texas

@_danhell Meowwwwwwwww. When you in Vegas?

It's been a while...

I haven’t been on twitter in a while… busy with life but also frustrated by the content I didn’t ask for on my feed I log back in after weeks away to find… poker on my feed? How can this be!? I feel joy again!

I am reposting this because I know how awesome the poker community is: Amber has been a single mother for 3 years, but recently the father has decided to try to gain custody. Amber is working non-stop to cover her legal fees on top of her normal expenses. Please consider

Hey guys, I don’t post things like this too often but this one hits close to home. A friend of mine is going through a custody battle, and from the details she has shared with me privately, it’s incredibly important that she wins. If you can, please consider donating

Meow, bitch

@scott_seiver @BartHanson Honestly no one even taught me the “right” way, this was just my most natural response. Could easily be wrong, esp since live 5 could cause confusion

@_danhell @BartHanson I’m sure you’re right but something in my gut doesn’t like live 5 because 45 is a live 5 which is a wheel. I think I’d just say 6 low

How would you announce the high and low of the below hands on the following board: Board: 236A4 A: KK65 B: AA24 C: 8765 HINT: O8 players announce their low hand as a two card holding at most, unlike razz or Stud 8 because it’s a community card game.

@DougPolkVids Indifferent and no are the same answer fyi

Do you care about the WSOP player of the year?

@MariaHo Aww, thanks Maria 🥰 I think dealers and other staff can be just as guilty of this. All around it is a very stressful season for most of us and I try to keep that in mind

@_danhell Thanks for sharing! It’s so important to hear your account of the summer from a dealer’s perspective because too often I feel like players at the table can get so caught up in their own shit during the series that they detach from those around them and aren't humanizing people

This WSOP was a tough one. It started and ended with me being sick - bookends of exhaustion that added up to more than half the summer. When I finally recovered from the first bout, nothing seemed to go my way. A string of difficult interactions left me questioning why I’d come to Vegas at all and whether I should just pack up and go home. I missed my apartment, my friends and coworkers, my job and our players. I even missed the humidity. I remember auditioning for the WSOP back in 2017. I barely scraped by. Seriously, I scored a 70, the lowest passing grade. Afterward, the guy running the audition reviewed each of us. When he got to me, he said, “Ah, you. You made so many mistakes and went so fast my hand was cramping trying to keep up!” (I came from home games - all they cared about was speed.) I was embarrassed, but I took his feedback to heart. That summer, I slowed down. I focused on doing each thing right before moving on to the next. I listened to advice from floors and players. I improved my mechanics, refined my efficiency, and developed a better feel for the game. But more than that, as I constantly searched for the next way to improve, I grew not just as a dealer but as a person. There’s so much I love about the WSOP. The friendships I’ve made. The unforgettable stories. The summer camp vibes. The endless nights of werewolf, Meow Wolf, hot tubs, and laughter. The camaraderie of being part of a team that shows up every day and gives their all. The chance to work among the top 1%—not just in talent, but in drive and mindset. But most of all, I love the way it pushes me. Every summer, I’m challenged to become better—technically, emotionally, professionally. It’s not just about mechanics or handling tough situations with grace. It’s also about showing up in a way that leaves room for others. That’s part of the job, too. So when I hit my low point this summer, when I realized I could leave at any time, I chose to stay. Not because I expected anything to change - but because I decided I would. I reminded myself that sometimes, our experience isn’t shaped by where we are, but by how we see it. And that shift in mindset can change everything. So I kept showing up. I kept doing my best each day. I tried to be a light for anyone who might be struggling even more than I was. I focused on what I could control. I counted my blessings. This summer didn’t challenge me the way I expected. It challenged me in exactly the way I needed.
