@GCraps7112020 @WSOP @dwpoker @Stapes Hi. Long time professional pokerplayer here. Can confirm the correct terminology is ‘hold cards’. It’s the cards that you hold in your hand. Hope this helps.

@hvdm1987 @RobbiJadeLew Nee maar wat vind je echt Herman 🙃😂

You register a tournament advertised as 500+70 , you see in the @WSOP app no other fees, you play and make the money at the end of the night, 1240€ mincash locked. The next morning you get to the casino and see that there's a staff fee of 6% added taken off the prizepool.

@Brinkytinky @PokerNieuwsNL @CasinoNieuws_nl @hollandcasino @PokerCityNL Jammer om te horen, ik neem het mee en zal het benoemen in gesprekken met de pokermanager als ik hem zie in Venlo.

@Stapes @PokerStars @PokerStarsUSA Damn, that’s devastating news. I’ve been a fan from the start. All the best on your next adventures. Hope we can still enjoy your charm and humor in some form in the future.

@MikeMcDonald89 That 4th place starting to look pretty good.

@AWChief98 @WSOP What an absolute insane take: you sign a release to use the words and images provided. Not to fabricate words and put them into your mouth?

[Mark Roovers @MarkRoovers]

@StandardBacking @SavagePoker I believe they chose to do so in agreement with the players. But it was a weird situation for sure.

My wife knows me too well. There is a detour near my home. The alternative route is shown with the yellow ‘K’ and ‘A’. My wife said: “You must be so tilted’ Oh yes…

If you’ve never been to the MCOP, I would urge you to come and check it out. @Holland Casino takes really good care of their players with dinner and free (non alcoholic) drinks included.

I am excited to share with you the schedule of the prestigious Master Classics Of Poker 2025, which will take place November 14th - 22th in the heart of Amsterdam. This year we have two rake free (preregistration) €10k Highroller tournaments (NLH/PLO). https://t.co/puB2BDo7Ic

@dankness3 He is supposed to only call aces, so he is just one pip off. I was surprised that it’s only -$34k mistake.

@VanessaKade The misogyny in poker is a huge issue. It’s painful to read your first hand experiences and how that has affected you. However, you lost me with the point you’re trying to make about sponsorships. The ratio of women vs men who get sponsorships is clearly in favor of women.

@RobKuhn_ I once got it in preflop on a final table bvb met 99 v A5. As I showed my hand down a 3rd card appeared. It was stuck behind my second card. The hand was ruled a misdeal.

@sammyboy_crypto @JoshuaArieh Have you never been around gamblers?

@RodOnstein @WSOP @TheGrinder44 @Jostens @HorseshoeVegas @ParisVegas The Main Event win is good for 2000 points.

@RodOnstein @WSOP @TheGrinder44 @Jostens @HorseshoeVegas @ParisVegas No, Shaun Deeb.

@UhlenPoker Good on you, there is so much more to life then FOMO’ing into every live tournament. Also: you’ve achieved great things. Now it’s your time to appreciate and enjoy.

[Mark Roovers @MarkRoovers]

@MarleSpragg You look great Marle, who are you teamed up with?
