People raised by emotionally mature parents, what's 1 phrase your parents used that you want other parents to know?

[Danielle White @_danhell]

I don’t see how this is useful. WSOP already knows who their good dealers are. Floors and DCs track this all summer. Why not just pay your dealers commensurately for skill, years worked, or the responsibility they’re entrusted with? Bonuses are nice. Raises, likely more effective

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!

@JoshuaArieh @RealKidPoker That wasn’t the question

@FrankieCucc I used to do this for a home game. And no. Shufflers are just fine.

@VegasHayls The TABC had enough to get a warrant to investigate and make their case stronger. No charges filed doesn’t mean there won’t be charges filed. I’ve been involved in something like this before and charges didn’t come till 1.5 years after shut down.

@dfsbrat Obviously I can’t speak to what is in your mind, but you may someday find it helpful to consider him more of a concerned parent or friend than an enemy. My inner critic is a protective part who learned to manage like my mother. She means well, and showing her compassion helps

[Danielle White @_danhell]

I was raised by two poker players. In my teens, I was essentially taught that my emotions were inconvenient and unimportant. Obviously, suppressing my emotions became a useful skill when I started playing poker in my 20s, but by my 30s I had developed anxiety.

As someone who’s been on both sides of this experience, I can tell you that emotional suppression and emotional resilience are not the same thing. Resilience requires experience. It demands that emotions be felt. Resilience requires far more strength, and the benefit is a life with far more depth, connection, and richness than anything I could have ever imagined before therapy. Suppression, on the other hand, forces emotions to be carried with us for years and can lead to mental and physical health problems later in life.

I would imagine that a solid majority of poker players struggle with this. I highly recommend seeking a therapist who can help you learn to access and reprocess suppressed emotions, as well as help you develop the tools to process your emotions in real time. This has been the best gift life has ever given me - a life rich with emotional depth and emotional intelligence, so that every single one of my relationships have improved, and I am better able to show up for myself and the people in my life.

And if you’re concerned that your emotions will hurt your game, I’d like to add this: some of the highest performing players I know are also some of the most emotionally intelligent people I know. Initially, it may hinder your game, but eventually it should turn around, and the benefit you’ll find in every other area of your life is well worth it.

[Jeremy Ausmus @jeremyausmus]

When you play poker for a living it trains you to put your feeling aside so you can keep playing well, not letting your emotions effect your decisions. This is very important for a players bottom line. However, recently I've realized that being in the habit of muting your emotions isn't healthy in many other areas of your life. Sure it can give you resilience throughout the day but avoiding these emotions eventually leads to you feeling numb to a lot of things in life. Recently, I'm trying to focus on them more and really feel them and then move on. Maybe at the table isn't the ideal times for this but eventually you need to process these emotions. I'm already finding that being in tune with your mind and body and not shoving feelings to the side definitely has benefits.

@cballboy That’s awesome :)

@ThePokerBoss All cards must be tabled. As soon as Player A turns his 5 face down, his hand is dead.

@MattGlantz @WSOP @EWassPoker @BennyGlaser Why do I feel like I’m being gaslit 😂

@rainstormblue The visual is awful. I figured it out by saying aloud man + parrot = 200 and m-p=170. Then it clicked for me: m =185 and p = 15

@Dweisman13 I don’t know but when I do, I’ll reach out :) lmk if you make it to Texas

I haven’t been on twitter in a while… busy with life but also frustrated by the content I didn’t ask for on my feed

I log back in after weeks away to find… poker on my feed? How can this be!? I feel joy again!

I am reposting this because I know how awesome the poker community is:

Amber has been a single mother for 3 years, but recently the father has decided to try to gain custody. Amber is working non-stop to cover her legal fees on top of her normal expenses. Please consider donating if you’re able ❤️ She truly deserves the support

Hey guys, I don’t post things like this too often but this one hits close to home. A friend of mine is going through a custody battle, and from the details she has shared with me privately, it’s incredibly important that she wins. If you can, please consider donating

@scott_seiver @BartHanson Honestly no one even taught me the “right” way, this was just my most natural response. Could easily be wrong, esp since live 5 could cause confusion
