Phil Hellmuth
“Enjoyed my time w @Jimmiejohnson, maybe best #NASCAR driver ever w a record 6 NASCAR Championships! We talked about the concept of DESIRE.. Crazy Vegas weekend between: clubbing, #NASCAR, #UFCPettis, my boys @westcoastbill & JonFerraro and 3 poker sessions: -9K, +10K and +9.5K”
Todd Brunson
“I’m not talking about any case in particular. Just in general, why do ppl resist. I mean look what can happen!!’ With no upside at all.. what I’m saying is while ur being arrested isn’t the time to protest.The cops don’t give a damn. They won’t stop.. The topic here isn’t if cops are too brutal or not. I think most agree they are at times. This is about not resisting arrest.”
Jason Mercier
“I won it! Set a goal to win 3 titles in 2014… Late start winning my first one now. Lot more poker to play this month! Let’s go!!!!”
Jimmy Fricke
“Listening to celebrities about how to succeed is like asking a guy who wins a poker tournament how to win at poker.. Maybe he has some good ideas, but there are plenty of morons who say shit like “don’t be afraid to play flush draws!” He won the f***ing tournament, of course he hit his flush draws. You get lucky a lot when you win the tournament. Happens in business too.”
Jean-Robert Bellande
“We just got bumped from the Ivey room @ARIAPoker by 8 guys that can’t play a lick of poker. #brokeiveys http://t.co/lNMrrCQqC8”

“This is a sad day. A statement about me and PokerStars: http://t.co/fmC8Wzffnb.. A lot of people are clicking at once and my website is only small, so I know it won’t work immediately for some of you. But no rush.. I’m incredibly grateful for all your kind and reassuring tweets. Literally, moral support! Thanks so much.”
