This game doesn’t just humble you. It waits until you’re smiling… Then pulls the rug mid-celebration. I ran $40K up to $200K... then lost it all in 48 hours. In Bobby’s Room. On top of the world — then face down in it. One minute I’m hyped, talking to myself in the mirror like

So Mizrachi @TheGrinder44 wins $10M at the WSOP and decides, “Yeah… I should probably play in Okin’s Wednesday game.” I’m flattered. And slightly concerned. Catch The Grinder trying to run it up (or punt it off) at my cash game this Wednesday — 9PM EST 🎥 Live on PokerGO +

This is completely misleading! @nikairball why do you insist on eshaan being able to watch? Eshaan has studied heads up. You’re using him to coach you. Why do you threaten to back out if he’s not there? If berkey’s so bad, why do you need a coach? It should be between only you 2

Idk where 2start. 50%+ marriages fail. Maybe ppl should take> time. I’m guessing many failed by rushing into it, in part b/c, like you, mainstream USA views success and happiness through this rigid, “best” way to live as opposed to ppl really thinking abt what’s best 4them

At the end of the day, I believe that $envx is making good progress on the long road to get approval for several new customers in iOT, cell phones, laptops. Any new battery company will have to go through a long process of testing and approvals and design-ins. Here was TJ's

$ENVX @EnovixBatteries Would be great to hear about new customers or even “old ones”, ones referenced in prior press releases. Feels like we probably shouldn’t have high hopes for those things. At this point, anyone not in the queue will wait for EX2M. Hopefully we can get

Hillarious. Only reason you didn’t God Mode here is that someone was cock blocking your routine. There’s a guy literally looking over your shoulder so you couldn’t cheat this hand. @DougPolkPoker @berkey11

Alan Meltzer. Super nice guy. Loved poker. Left $1 million to his dog 🐕 and his doorman. Pretty sure this happened at Molly’s Game: Straight flush vs. Royal flush. One of the wildest hands I’ve ever seen.

Scott Ball owes hundreds of thousands of dollars to poker people. Why are you glorifying him? Scott said he would do the right thing to pay it off. How is he sponsoring your party and why are you pretending you don’t know anything about this stuff?

I was playing No Limit at Bellagio… and had no idea what was going on. 3-bets, 4-bets — I was a bit over my head. But I had a decent read on people. So I fumbled my way through… and somehow survived. 🙌

Can’t argue I’m not a nit when compared to Keating. I’ll try to learn from the nice guy and very entertaining Mr Keating. BTW, nice hand with 97dd, @Mister_Keating. @berkey11 you epic whale, big mouth, just keep showing up and dumping. Wish last few sessions were on stream but
