I don't care what trolls say about my poker game, my laugh or whether you like me or not. But do you really have to come after my appearance? Just because I'm a woman doesn't mean I exist for you to be attracted to. My value as a human isn't in how hot I am. Keep it to yourself.

Sweet boy, Eddie, has been at the shelter in Vegas for a year and is going to be euthanized. He is a staff favorite 💔 About 7 years old, after initial excitement upon meeting people is super gentle. He's up for an adventure or couch cuddles! Good with kids and pets. Please RT 🙏

Doubled up at the Wynn because the guy next to me thought I "was just some lady who wouldn't call for her tournament life with A high." In case you're wondering what people think about women in poker.

I have gotten so much love and support as people have watched my run on the @PokerStars Big Game. Thank you to everyone who has messaged, commented, and rooted for me! Especially my mom and sisters, who now know what a nit roll is and what it means to run it four times. 😂♠️❤️.

Now that a few people on the internet have seen my hole cards, I'm hearing how bad I am at poker. Which is perfect, because that's what I need the IRS to think, too. 😘.

Lol at all the chat pros on social media giving their takes on Krissy's bust out hand. Not a single one of you will ever accomplish what she has, understand the game like she does or have gotten to 13th in the Main playing your game. Easy to criticize, impossible to replicate.

I almost didn't go. It seemed like such a tough parlay to pull off. Win a shootout, survive two rounds of auditions and, out of 20 candidates, land one of two spots on The @PokerStars Big Game.

Young guy at my table is wearing a nose strip and I'm all for maximizing your edge, but if you can't get through the Wynn daily without extra oxygen maybe you should consider playing cash 🤷🏻♀️.

I root for women. I believe them. I defend them. I give them the benefit of the doubt. I stand up for them. Whether I know them or not. Unless you give me a specific reason not to, I will have your back. Also, my DMs are always open if you need a friend. 🩷.

Do I think the term "ladies" is used intentionally to patronize women? .No. Do I think we need to wake up to the fact that it’s 2023 and call it a Women’s Championship? Absolutely. #HappyInternationalWomensDay #InternationalWomensDay2023 #WomenInPoker.

@GmanPoker @JuliaInPalmdale @HCLPokerShow @HUSTLERCASINOLA 💯 this is why it is HUGE for one woman to come forward. It's often dominoes from there. The first woman is often attacked and not believed but many. But once they break the silence, it's much harder to disbelieve an army of women.

@michaelianblack Can we put him in jail for not doing the arm letters to YMCA? That's definitely a crime! If you're gonna play it, you have to do the letters.

Idk who needs to hear this, but Hendon Mob is a relatively meaningless stat. It doesn't account for buy ins, selling action or online results. If you're chasing numbers or comparing yourself to others, just stop. Focus on your game. #poker #pokerplayer #pokertournaments.

This has been on my mind for a while, but I recently saw a tweet making fun of the idea that the term “ladies” in poker should be changed to women. The comments were worse than the original tweet… as usual. But, the issue is real.

When she sent me a Facebook message that said, "Hi, I think our sons are brothers." Their biological father abandoned me while I was pregnant and did the same to her 5 years later. She found us and moved to where we live so the boys could grow up together. ❤️.

@Jbex2417 @WynnPoker After you busted the nightly, some guy at our table said, "Yeah, that guy fired 6 bullets at the Venetian today. He's addicted to tournaments." 😂 I said, "I think if you're winning, it's called a job." Lol gg.

If you want women to feel welcome and equal to men in poker, we're going to have to stop referring to our tournaments like they’re tea parties. The truth is, a term that, perhaps, was meant to be polite, now feels antiquated and even a little patronizing.

I took this photo because I log all my meals for my dietitian. I try to enjoy it like our own private Instagram. This pandemic has me struggling with an eating disorder again but I'm working really hard to get better. If I can be proud of myself, so can you.

Bullying a teen for being proud of his dad. I'd like to call this a new low for MAGA, but it's so far from a new low that it was expected. #DNC.

After 6 months of fighting, I was able to get my son's (Nevada) public school to agree to an IEP today. Anyone with a neurodivergent child who has had to advocate relentlessly for their needs can relate to what a triumph this is. I'm in tears. Thank fucking God.

@Matthew_Waxman If you're on the fence, women could use your help securing the future of reproductive rights with a vote for Harris/Walz. It's kind of a big deal to us.

"Should I even try?" I remember saying to Jaman when my alarm went off last Saturday morning to go to register. "It's pretty unlikely." . "It's definitely impossible if you don't," he said. So I went.

In a live game, what do you say to yourself between the completed pre-flop action and the flop coming out? I find myself constantly repeating the pot size followed by my exact two cards. Is this normal?? #poker #pokerplayer #whatswrongwithme.

Imagine how much good a woman who is the daughter of an African-American father and an Asian-American immigrant mother could do for the people in our country who need representation the most. If that scares you, good. #KamalaHarris2024.

Can we just be better than this? Sling mud at the politicians, fine. They knew it was coming. They can handle it or they wouldn't have run. But can we leave their kids out of it? Gus Walz and Emma Emhoff definitely deserve better. And, for that matter, so does Barron Trump.

@JuliaInPalmdale @NickVertucciNV @HCLPokerShow The fact that anyone blames you or criticizes you in this is sad, and sadly, expected. Very grateful for your bravery it putting this out there. I'm sure you're far from the only one!! 🩷.

I've made every mistake in the book when it comes to poker. I've made bad shoves. Bad calls. Busted myself. Punted. I’ve even misread my hand. It's not about being perfect; it's about allowing our mistakes to teach us. So that, ideally, we're always making new ones.

@Angry_Polak said something on spaces that really resonated with me. She said, "If I know that there is no evidence that would change someone's mind, I don't engage." So, instead of arguing with the sexist men at my table, I'm blasting music 🎧.

One very long week later, I'm wondering if I could have dreamt it all. Did I really form "Team Loose Cannon" with @NadyaKGB & @NikkiLimo and play the biggest game of my life (by an order of magnitude) with players I've been watching on TV for over a decade?.

Fwiw, I told my son he's probably bluffing but, if not, to fight back. That it will be ok, and the bully will leave him alone after that because they don't want someone who fights back, they want someone who's afraid of them. This is just my best guess. What would you say?.

It's not our job as breast cancer survivors to promote "Pink October" or make breast cancer awareness our fight. It's ok if you need to leave it in the past, or if October is triggering for you. If healing from the trauma means letting it go, that's ok, too. 🩷.
