My god, so many things, go deeper than whats at face

focus on myself

Dont doubt yourself ok? jimboi

i heard some results about the 3/600 game and some belief i had got shattered.

Eli is soooo goooooood

i have to go in believing that i can beat them - be positive - dont be a complainer (not that i am much) - go in give your best - have faith in my ability - crush!

first exp






went to rw 2nd floor to check out the area. soooooo niiiiiiice. imagine im in china rn. Fail to imagine.

said hi to a few people then as i walk out the entrance paul gunness shouts across the room since plo tables are at the very back. i retreat n he pays me back a yellow bird. great guy!

btw found this 10/20no limit asian regs real name cuz i saw it at the tourney table

saw his hendon too unless a different guy w same name

he says he never play tours

i mean.... i dont play tour but i still play like 50-60 a year, not Zero tour.

No - i've asked him to play cash maybe just 8-16 but he never.

He deems everything non horse-ish to be circus... seems to be in line w how dneg preaches - which is certainly out of touch - like the exclusion of drawmaha variants at wsop

i dont wanna trash talk daniel as theres a chance i get drafted by him in 25k fantasy for 2026 wsop per an inside source - idk if im getting gaslighted but being dneg's horse in the upcoming tour would be a great business decision

i think chainsaw is just a regular tour guy - tight passive - u can't Not gamble in many spots in tours if u wanna deep run. Look at V - monster cash game guy - whaling out there in tour n bink the 10k bigo for 800k



omg look at his payout

1st is 10x 8th.......

which reminds me today 1100 plo had an atrocious turnout
i regret playing it
1st 15k
2nd 10k
thats it
8th min cash
srsly
why did i play, dumbass


late night study w israeli Guy altho its afternoon for him

in shower reviewing my punt vs sagstrom in PL 2-7 triple draw
cost myself $4800

talking strat w good players makes u think about the game on a deeper level
and having myself spell out the logic is very helpful

screw the hard work it's a big fat lie
talent outweighs so much but i believe andrew yeh when he tells me - repetition.


What are the plo8 10k winners main cash game stakes and games, nice to see him busting some known professional out deep in the tournament with a funky hand that irritated said pro

are you talking about the kings hand vs hellmuth? i vaguely recall.

i play him in 10/20/40 plo and the southpoint 10/25 bigo game (which has turned into a home game in the recent months). pretty sure that's his normal stake but he very likely plays higher which i can't afford or have access to.

Bumped into him the other day in bobbys when he was playing crazy's 2/400 mix - we traded some chips since it was convenient for me to hold onto rw flags.

I've seen him absolutely crushing live n online in plo. i dont have much info on his nl plays.


i have been getting outplayed in badugi so much lately.... i am hereby stripping my self-appointed title - Mayor of DugiTown.

I love poker.

Let me catch the right suit! I will take a three side!


administration at uc davis giving me ultimatum. it's so weird. i basically told them - if i pay you guys what's the big deal. bunch of arrogant white elites who don't understand the trickiness of international politics - my advisor is taiwanese - slightly better.

Merit. Merit... Merit!!!

got paid back 3 n half yellow birds in the past 24 hours. Amazing.
loaned out another two to a crusher who got crushed by private stuff.
least to winners instead of the bumass prop and the deadbeats in sacramento.

i am really surrounded by good ppl in vegas.

and did i mention. Girlfriend!!!


pays to be a nice guy - got a call from host that a 20/40 seat opened up right before start today. Yay! On my way!


Get your degree as back up in case poker doesn’t work out. Or to work in tandem with poker on the side. suggest you work things out with your school before you make any decisions you may forever regret. Poker isn’t all that fun when you have no other options and you are losing. Trust me I know from personal experience.


10-25 big bet mix
something interesting uncovered in group chat before i jumped in uber

at least will hv a couple familar faces n ppl who i talk to privately in there


What are the reasons you wouldn't finish a PhD in physics at Davis? Need another year there? Poker will wait for you.


ok session

won a plo pot
lost a bigo folded flop
lost a bomb pot call-fold flop

interesting pot limit 2-7 hand potted pre n flop then folded turn
