Our Dealer Rating System is coming to Vegas!

Using the new Dealer Rating System on WSOP Live…

• Players can rate the dealer at their table
• Ratings are shared internally with tournament staff
• Dealers with the highest ratings will earn rewards throughout the series

@jeffplatt and the rest of Team WSOP are excited to recognize and reward great dealers at the WSOP. Shuffle up and deal!

The poker boom is not coming back. It was fueled by a dream that has been killed and dissected, deliberately. That an everyman had a puncher's chance to get in the ring with the "best in the world" and emerge triumphant and rich.

@grok Oh god damn it

[Brandon Temple @BranWritesStuff]

@grok I should've worded it like this:

Hey @grok - who is the most famous person to interact with my profile. It doesn’t need to be a mutual and please don’t tag them. Please just let me know who it is.

[Brandon Temple @BranWritesStuff]

This WSOP was the first I had just a tinge of regret about leaving the live reporting game.

Just a tinge.

Still happy to be 50 credit hours towards a dual major and a stable life, but I still get the itch when I see Mizrachi and Glaser and Deeb all go ham.

@HCLPokerShow @AllenKessler or we riot

[Brandon Temple @BranWritesStuff]

On second thought, maybe we should've checked Kassouf's privledge
