Faraz Jaka
“Funny watching camera crew jump up every new hand waiting to catch me bust. He’s making me want to nit it up lol 8bbs. #willprovethemwrong”
Alec Torelli
“Whenever I get tired of poker I do this, and realize the freedom it gives me is worth every second grinding. #phuket (see photo).”
Daniel Negreanu
“In so many ways the state of poker is headed in the wrong direction and the more I hear about bad floor rulings the more concern I have..Example: Amateur doesn’t raise river with the nuts and gets a penalty. The severity serves no positive purpose and only hurts rec players..Example: Amateur exposes hand early in a heads up pot. He now has HUGE disadvantage AND gets a penalty too! No warning, kick em while he is down!”
Cliff Josephy
“Lost 2 brutal hands, one where I folded to a riv jam, the other where I flopped top set and paid off a gutshot. 21k dinner #PCA25kHighroller.. When you are running bad you shouldn’t press it. That said, I busted, cooled off, and am playing bullet 2 #PCA25kHighroller.. Found what I thought was a good spot to squeeze allin, and ran right into both QQ and AK, I’m out #BronzeMedal #BadWeek #PutMildly.”
Court Harrington
“Quit talking abt things like “protecting the integrity of the game,” or “protecting the players” & start doing things to get the right plyrs..That stuff sounds good but is mostly used as justification to benefit the pros and regs and inadvertently alienate new and novice players.”
Jimmy Fricke
“Why is every car mechanic a total piece of shit liar? They’re worse than poker players. And I just let myself get screwed.”
Shannon Shorr
“Giving up on asking strangers wearing @Braves hat if they are a fellow fan of the team. Response is always: “No…I just like the hat.”
David Williams
“Who is this clown on the #EPTLive stream talking bad about Vanessa’s game? “I wish people would base their game on her style” #crazytalk.”
Jason Mercier
“It’d be sweet if @Stapes could stop trying to assess player’s ranges. More comedy, less analysis! Thanks brah! #EPTLive.”
Todd Brunson
“This is two days in a row our waiter didn’t write down our order and forgot something. Is this like an ego thing? They don’t wanna use a pen..@olegsmith: @ToddBrunson I would think most people looking at you would think they need a pen and someone to help them carry the food” true.”
