@RealKidPoker Why not set it as a bounty of 20 BBs that the next pot gets whenever someone busts? Trying to understand how the idea is different than that. nobody can call or raise a bet that takes them <= 20 BBs, so if a bet does, they just call up to them having 20 BBs as if that's all in?

A few years ago, a group of amazing women organizers in South Dallas reached out to me to ask whether we could help them find ways to increase transportation equity in South Dallas. Here's what we came up with together: https://t.co/uB6zW43pt5 @jmoralesburnett

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson confronted the lawyer arguing for outlawing affirmative action with how his proposed college admissions system would privilege a white legacy applicant over a Black descendent of slaves. Listen here -->

So if you're someone who meets the $125k income threshold for forgiveness but are lamenting that you recently paid off your loans, ask for $10k (or as much as you've paid since the pandemic began) back and voila. https://t.co/BJdQS0Z175

Important story (with data analysis by yours truly) -> courts can really make a difference in halting evictions, even without legislative intervention. They're already doing so in New Mexico and Philly

.@DavisChrisW: Design requirements for affordable housing projects can make the buildings desirable, aesthetically pleasing neighborhood features. "It increases the amenity effect. People like living next to nice things." (via @christianbrits) https://t.co/lrkLDYz2LD

[Tina Stacy @TinaPStacy]

@RealKidPoker @AllenKessler What happens after h6?

[Christopher Davis @DavisChrisW]

@RealKidPoker Shouldn't matter too much given random incidence of this happening (player did little to be in that particular situation too), but maybe changing the rule would mitigate people feeling they lose out

@BennyDocter yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man

Oh, Virginia, you have the chance to do something great for low-income, working families. Our #EITC in Virginia could do so much more for our lowest income workers - but to do that, it needs to be made refundable. This @TCIFiscal report lays out the options.
