@devahaz Robinson baiting him would be legendary

@tommartell @CedricAPhillips Good point Tom, it was mostly our doing

@TXMCtrades What would be a worthwhile denomination?

[Dan Smith @DanSmithHolla]

Anyone have good experience with an electric grill? My building doesn't allow gas grills (insurance reasons, nothing with a flame).

Considering getting electric, but struggling to imagine when I would use that instead of just the stove.

@BennyGlaser @fitzpoker if i were i vegas i would play

[Dan Smith @DanSmithHolla]

You should not draft me in ODB fantasy

[Dan Smith @DanSmithHolla]

@Josephson5566 @fitzpoker Treated it as a vacation and gambled small

[Dan Smith @DanSmithHolla]

@fitzpoker Playing very few events. Taxes + just don't really want to play in the Horseshoe when it's 110 degrees in Vegas.

Might catch the itch and fly out at some point.

[Dan Smith @DanSmithHolla]

@rumnchess @Kevmath You don't want a system where even the best player the world is -ev buying in late, which imo happens when you buyin with 20bb and auto post BB + ante first hand.

I think the bigger issue like pads has been discussing is just reg open too long. But it makes the venue money.

@devahaz @CartoonsHateHer Please elaborate Deva!

Poker history question: what is the origin of T3 offsuit being kitchens?

[Dan Smith @DanSmithHolla]

@msalsberg Have turned down this action already. The vortex is strong

[Dan Smith @DanSmithHolla]

People are already asking about WSOP fantasy?!?!?! Even by my standards I'll be playing a light schedule.

Plan is to do two trips, one for 50k, 100k, 250k, and a second trip around the 10k 8game and Main event and whatever postlims. Always possible I get sucked into WSOP vortex with 25k plo , PPC etc.

Have a very niche question for double up drive, need to consult a non profit tax attorney. Someone wants to donate a % of their hedge fund and we are unsure how to proceed/if that is something we can do without losing 501c3.

Any leads please message [email protected]

Thinking about Triton Montenegro if any VIPs are looking for a partner 👋

[Dan Smith @DanSmithHolla]

While I agree it is theoretically possible for some, I personally wouldn’t encourage anyone to try it these days. Even ignoring the tax situation (which is brutal)it’s just way less lucrative for 99.9% than it used to be.

I feel making $250k/year in EV used to be relatively easy and now it’s not

[Dan Smith @DanSmithHolla]

@JeffreyBenson12 @CircaSports For a bet such as Aussie Open semi's, how much would you take there? In particular I saw a line on straight sets win but wouldn't want to drive for tiny action.

[Dan Smith @DanSmithHolla]

@drynyks Very subjective. For me 2015 SHRB was the best. Main event is a great event but I personally don't find it especially enjoyable

[Dan Smith @DanSmithHolla]

How many bullets was the record this year in WSOP $25k?

[Dan Smith @DanSmithHolla]

@drynyks No, they are risking less $ for a chance at a payout. As you rebuy , you are buying more chances at a cost. It's fair

People who play from the beginning are getting a bit "diluted" though by the max late reggers coming in with 12.5bb

[Dan Smith @DanSmithHolla]

@drynyks I think allowing lots of reentries with shallow stacks is bad for the game in lots of ways, including just having an enjoyable experience. IMO it's one of the biggest issues right now with poker.

If someone wants to get in for 10 bullets by getting in 50+bb, I say let them.
