Fouling up two, circa 2016. The main guy at not just basketball analytics anymore. I've worked for a player on every NBA team, I promise I don't play favorites. More into poker and trading now.

Probably good to remind myself every few years that, actually, no, I do not run bad.

These hands in The Corporation vs Andy Beal, that’s running bad.

Fun to read about it from Cowboys Full, but The Professor, the Banker, and the Suicide King is by far one of the best books on competition I’ve read

i finished watching the pitt and i have a plan for improving efficiency in emergency rooms. gather all medicine you have on hand and dump it into a large vat. that's the "wellness vat." wheel it around and ladle it out to people. if someone is critical, pick them up and put them in the wellness vat

The fact that a lady went missing in 2021 (and was declared legally dead in 2023) within the exact building that this group has run games out of is insanity and so scary.

Gilbert might really be in deep, deep, deep shit here.

And the really bad choices…

Illegal and not smart:

Running a huge poker game, charging a fee, and inviting strangers

Illegal and the least smart thing ever:

Running a huge game, taking a fee, inviting strangers, branding it with your identity, and partnering with a crime syndicate in all of it

Basically, this is the levels to this:

Legal:

Running a poker game and taking no money as a fee

Legal but not smart:

Running a poker game for huge money and inviting random strangers but still taking no fee

Illegal:

Running a game and take a fee

Gilbert Arenas seriously may be tied up with some super, super, super unsavory names with this one.

The poker-spin on this story is really, really bad. You think this is bad on face? It’s likely worse than it appears.

Just my completely uninformed opinion. He might catch serious charges here.

Don’t cater to bigots. It’s very simple.

Trans kids deserve respect and most importantly a childhood!

Leave β€˜em the fuck alone and let β€˜em be kids.

Hero calls, Villains turns over A2s of Clubs and Hero dodges the flush and chop outs to hold!

Two new things:

1. Just hit my first live Royal Flush!

2. Just learned that Mohegan Sun doesn’t allow you to take pictures of the cards lol

Hero checks and villain insta jams for $560 effective.

What’s the play?

Venue is Mohegan Sun and it’s about 9pm on a Monday night, this is Hero’s 10-12th hand at the main game.

Pretty wild hand last night at 2/5.

3 limps to loose button, makes it $30

Hero looks down at AdKs (1k effective) in the SB, makes it $140 for the resqueeze. Folds to button, thinks for a moments calls.

AhQc4c ($300)

Hero makes it $120, gets raised to $300. Thinks and calls.

Turn: 4s

Cont.

Hard to find #poker and #livepoker people on here, but the room was packed. About 250-300 people in there by noon.

Also, cash playing in $100 bills is so fun.

Check-called, check-jammed 66 on K62rK and got the max out of AK. Won a 1.2k pot and he tossed in four hundred dollar bills.

I felt like a cowboy. A fucking cowboy in a fucking saloon.

Oh, also, playing 9-handed is the worst.

8 handed is so much better. Never realized how much better it could be.

Better game, more space, more playable hands an hour, more action. Going from a home casino with 8-handed play back to 9-handed play was like culture shock.

Lowkey the both tables of the 2/5 were better games than the 1/2, and there is no 1/3.

Did see TT flat to an UTG 4x in the HJ, and a woman claimed she had QQ that flatted in the small blind to my 5x over a limpet in the high jack with only about 50 big blinds to start the hand.

So, so strange.

Mohegan Sun is such a strange room:

Nice room.
Nice people.
Great playing comps (free booze while playing poker..? Outside of Vegas..?)
Weird seating system.
Terrible cards despite being Kems.
Terrible chips.
Great felt.
Great chairs.
Great tables with USB chargers.

Hypothesis 1: Increase in media coverage transforms interest in women's sports.

Hypothesis 2: One person appears -- from the American Midwest -- and suddenly women's sports change all over the world.

If we accept #1, we have to confront a history of discrimination. Hence men love to go with #2.
