@urgonnamakeme0@MattGlantz Having my best year ever, results wise, and still feeling empty inside, was what ultimately caused me to take the break that I did.
Obviously, having a financial cushion made it easier to take such a long break.
@rumnchess I find it helpful to either play a couple rounds of a game I have little to no emotional investment in (Hearthstone) or watch an episode of an equally low-investment tv show.

@MattGlantz I think there’s levels to it, or at least different ways to define it. I always perceived it to be a way to explain people who have such strong hatred for Trump, that they don’t think he could possibly do anything good, and that anyone who voted for him is essentially a proxy.
@berkey11 Fair and just. I appreciate and respect your perspective.

The rake at @WSOP Paradise is a lot higher than most people think, because the way that the buyins are listed in the app doesn't reflect an additional 3-5% staff fee. While WSOP technically discloses this fee, it's still not obvious what they're doing (1/x)
