Remember how online poker used to feel?. My early experience on Phenom Poker has brought me back to those days. Gameplay has been smooth and enjoyable. I can tell I am playing against real people. The chat box and avatars are fun. Best rewards program I’ve ever seen…

Shout out to @WynnPoker and @WPT for the lower rake on the World Championship. The $9800+$600 is a full $100 less than has been taken at Five Diamond the past few years. That's ~$200,000 more going to players bankrolls.

In a showing of good faith towards its players, today's @WSOP Ultra Stack runs 10-handed with a 10am restart, while masses of tables sit empty and dealers are sent home. No excuse in these postlims 🤢.

With all the cheating in poker these days I think it would be a nice gesture for cardrooms to replace their decks a little more often.

Did a rake comparison between @WPT @WynnPoker and @WSOP Paradise. Couple thoughts:.-Props to Wynn for lower rake and reduced rake on events with faster structures.-High Roller rake difference 👀 🚨

The @WSOP schedule comes out soon. What do you guys think? . Any chance they listen to feedback and ban 10-handed? Fix the restart times?.

fwiw i don't think she was cheating. i've played a fair amount with this player. it's illogical to assume logic at the poker table. i think @briankoppelman has the right takes.

Are there gaming regulations with regards to players being provided a reasonable amount of space? If not, I assume we could lobby for them? #Ban10Handed.

Any legitimate hall of fames out there where a top 3 candidate for induction needs to run a dusty nomination campaign to make the ballot?. @jeremyausmus is out here making six final tables after being on the ballot last year and @wsop leaves him off!?!. Needs changed 4 this year!.

wynn 3-day $1600 with 40/60 minute levels = $1450+150. bellagio 1-day $1600 with 20 minute levels = $1440+160 🧐 . turbo gouging is lame.

Ideas to liven up these @WSOP postlims where everyone’s dream is dead and the room is half empty:. - DJ and dancers. - Hire Cuz to emcee action at random tables. - Casual attire week for employees.

I could use your help in this fight guys. It's an important one. Please voice your displeasure and willingness to play elsewhere when given an option. It directly effects our bottom line and the health of the poker economy. 🙏❤️💪🏼.

Please set the rake low. Some would argue that bracelets are on the verge of being devalued, and other venues are really stepping their game up!.
We are delighted to announce the 2023 World Series of Poker will return to the Las Vegas Strip at @ParisVegas, and the soon-to-be @HorseshoeVegas on May 30 – July 18, 2023. Learn more:

@berkey11 @RealKidPoker @WSOP love the sound of a 'new Tax'. if that chart is right $10ks will be $8900+$1100 🤮 . wynn just ran a $9800+$600.

Raising the lowest price points and banning 10-handed would improve POY. As it stands, a lot of pros won't touch the big field events, resulting in a 2-track system with players competing for POY that never step foot in the same tournament outside of the Main Event. (1/2).
Regarding @WSOP “Player of the Year,” we need someone new to take a look at the award. The two guys that influence it the most, Shaun and Daniel, overvalue “Cashes,” and online tourneys If someone wins 3 Bracelets, then they should SNAP win POY!.

Well, we gave em $675 (($965+$135)*5) over the past couple days to no avail. But I'm no quitter. If they'll have me, I've got another $175 ($1425+$175) ready for em @VenetianPoker!. Hell, I might even buy myself lunch and have it delivered right to the table!.

One of the most exciting things about Flavortown is it's location. Centrally located between the Horseshoe and Paris properties, appetizer indulgence is always just a short walk away. 👏.

Studies show that the NV pool has improved at a much slower rate than those in other markets. Researchers cite the lack of a chat option to drop knowledge on fools while tilted.
