@FarazJaka How wide should I be defending out of the big blind w bb ante in play, deep on day 1? I.e- I have 140k stack at 4000/8000 in the Bb, so 16k invested and someone raises to 20k or so. All folds,on me. How wide to defend? If another caller, do I tighten or loosen defend range?

16 reasons you lose money in tournament poker: - Calling wider multi-way because you’re “getting better odds” - Opening more hands in early position when stacks are deep - Flatting raises preflop instead of 3 betting to “see cheap flops” - Avoiding flips - Avoiding small bets because you don’t want to look weak - Jamming every combo draw on the flop - Refusing to 3-bet jam small pairs (25–30bb) from the blinds vs late opens - Using your own preflop strategy instead of referencing charts - Flatting the big blind wider when deep stacked - Playing tighter from the big blind when short-stacked - Avoiding squeezing and 4 betting because you think keeping the pot small will help you play longer - Flatting many offsuit hands deep or multi-way - Talking about your “tournament life” in Level 1 - Only check-raising 2 pair+ from the big blind - Only discussing hands you lost - Thinking you played well every time you win and that you did something wrong when you lose

@NicHulscher @grok based off this chart, if I had to choose between eating Dave’s or the two white breads without this toxin, which would you recommend and why?

The Florida Department of Health just found that your favorite bread is laced with carcinogenic glyphosate.

@luckychappy_ Arc Raiders fucked Apex up real good. I played Apex since day 1, more than I’d like to admit… but it was getting stale af. Can only do the same thing over and over and over again for so many years.

Ngl, this is rough to see man 😅

@DCinvestor @grok can you explain to us peasants how this is possible, in terms we can all understand and then parrot to our friends.

how tf does a $6tn asset print a -40% candle in one day? like what in the actual fuck?? 😂

@KingRichard Please know that we’re (whites) not all like this. Hate that I even need to say it. That racist POS is obviously a sad, depressed, uneducated scum bag. Needs some love in his life. It’s a shame how many of em are out there though.

Racist Arc Raiders Player Loses it! SLUR SATURDAY IS IN FULL EFFECT!

@AshenOne If you’re getting the “not enough players” error, restart your system. Problem solved 👍🏻

Certain reviewers and Geoff Keighley hyped Highguard a lot, but my experience with it so far is pretty ROUGH. - Constant crashes - Bad optimization - 3v3 raids feel absolutely BORING! The game really needed a mode with more players - Endless “not enough players” messages when queuing Nothing here that makes me want to invest more time, so I’m moving on.

@akaNemsko It’s quite obvious that Kramnik’s unwarranted allegations toward GM Naroditsky pushed a young, talented young man off the edge. It’s pretty safe to say the drug use was a coping mechanism to all the bullying. Continue to rest easy, Daniel, knowing your legacy will live on.

With no due respect shut the f*ck up. You parading around acting as if you are somehow vindicated is so utterly despicable. Keep his name and his family out of your disgusting mouth. A smear campaign? Danya HIMSELF called you and YOUR smear campaign against him out DIRECTLY on the last stream of his life. If hearing the impact it was having on him over months wasn't enough he stated it explicitly for everyone. The final cause of this tragic event will make 0 difference towards your involvement. I don't care how long FIDE decides to stall on their investigation or how scared they are of having a neutral 3rd party evaluation of your actions. We all know them, they are documented, and if that wasn't clear enough, Danya told us himself. You have shown zero respect for his memory and your continued efforts to cover your tracks and shift blame only further the pain you are a part of causing. You didn't make it one single day without commenting and haven't stopped spreading misinformation and lies about his passing since. @FIDE_chess Do your job. Hold your members accountable and implement real, tangible changes moving forward to protect your players.

@KirkLubimov @grok how much would this cost? For Canadians, US, and/or Chinese residents?

It is absofuckinglutely over for Canada's auto industry. This is a Chinese EV manufacturer Chery which wants to open shop in Canada, and this is one of its cars. Absolute luxury, smart interior, huge screens, 180km on pure electric and can do over 600 - 800 miles with extended range. This is just one of their models. No one even makes anything close to this in North America. Mark Carney reduced the tariffs on them to 6.1% and half need to be under $35k. They will open state of the art manufacturing facility operated by robots - not Unions, and import most of everything they need from China.

@HansMokeNiemann Stories like this usually end up w someone crashing out and going viral. Way to keep your composure, and best of luck in the event!

I wanted to share a behind the scenes story of what the life of a chess player is really like. Before Wijk Aan Zee, I decided to stop in Vienna on the way to Wijk Aan Zee and I conveniently found a very reasonably priced business class ticket. My trip started rather smoothly, I arrived to the airport early, but when I tried to enter the airport they asked me for a printed our version of my boarding pass. I had no wifi, but thankfully a fan recognized me so I offered to take a photo if he shared his hotspot. Alas, I managed to enter the airport where after checking in they told me that because of an equipment shortage they changed aircrafts and had demoted me from business to economy. After lengthy discussions they finally explained that the original plane had 14 business class seats while the new one only had 8 so 6 passengers got the unlucky draw. Regardless, they were accommodating and blocked off an entire row in economy so it was still uncomfortable. Obviously I would not consider this a travel nightmare, but this was only the beginning. I arrived in Abu Dhabi, and was looking forward to the far more comfortable seat on the flight to Vienna. However, shortly before arriving, the captain announced "10 minutes until landing", but 30 minutes passed and we didn't land. They eventually announced that due to the weather we had to circle Vienna until we got permission to land. After circling for an hour, the plan was to go to Munich but we were eventually rerouted to Frankfurt. Before we got off the plane in Frankfurt, they told us that the same plane would take us to Vienna at 8pm later that evening. However I saw that there was an 11:45 flight on an earlier airline so I booked that and thought that I could save time. Of course, 1 hour before it's departure, it was cancelled, and all other flights to Vienna were full. Lufthansa automatically rebooked me on a flight to dusseldorf, and then to Vienna. I mean after 24h of travel, continuous cancellations, money wasted. I decided to take the flight to dusseldorf then Vienna which eventually arrived at 7pm. While you might think that this entire story is incredibly negative, this is actually a great omen for my future chess results. Whenever similar travel nightmares occurred, especially during the pandemic, amazing results would follow. So the real moral of the story is that all of my bad luck is gone and that everything should hopefully go my way.

@IterIntellectus @grok is this accurate? And can you elaborate on the technology used to achieve this goal?

we’re less than 10 years from decoding all animal communication and BCIs that let us talk back an entire kingdom of minds we’ve been ignoring for 300,000 years going to be really fun

@KmartPoker Always been a fan of your streams and content. Respect for being vulnerable and sharing your struggles. Keep crushing, and happy new year!

This year I faced my Father’s suicide:

@tbpn @bryan_johnson How come someone with RHR of 47 suddenly dies young of stroke or cardiac arrest, whereas another with RHR 79 (also drinks and smokes) lives happily into their 90s and beyond? You can do everything right and die young, and vica versa. This is the reality unfortunately.

.@bryan_johnson: "I've been able to figure out how to compress everything I've learned into one biomarker." "The marker that's durable over time is resting heart rate before bed. Show me your resting heart rate, I'll see your soul. It's an accounting of your life decisions."
