@WSOP Ahhh at least the final table is live…. I predict record low viewership numbers for these tape delayed episodes…. I will say the instagram highlights in real time were nice

[David Ram @dtiwari19]

@shaundeeb Only impressive number here is the chicken tenders

Yeah POY needs some revamping. Points for cashes, points for bracelets, points for profit

[David Ram @dtiwari19]

@CMONEYMAKER Received ACR withdrawal on day 8. Thanks for speaking out and getting behind ACR

Good luck in the main

[David Ram @dtiwari19]

@phil_hellmuth @WSOP You could do a voter panel like other sports do for MVP but then it’s political.

— I think a minimum number of events played to qualify for POY

—Then point system based on finishes, prize money, and profit

— negative profit should certainly be negative points

[David Ram @dtiwari19]

@ThorKellin We should have played better,

But reality is, we are a good top 16 team in the world, not a great top 8 team.

-Lots of critics on US soccer system. No easy solution

I think we need more money/scholarships in college soccer

Maybe cap # of foreign players per team

@AdamS_113 @VoxProMLS With college basketball football & baseball, people go pro after 1-3 years, and in the meantime grow a fan base and brand that sticks with them in the pros. I think college soccer can play a role growing the US soccer fan base which should result in bigger MLS contracts over time

@WSOP @themouthmatusow I think you only show your cards if you are heads up and the other person is all in. Here it was a bet not all on

@CMONEYMAKER Hey Chris, can you help me with a 7 day withdrawal delay on ACR ? It is only $400 but I could use it.

It was June 30th, I know you’re busy but I would really appreciate it. ACR Username: mlewisindy

I’ll respond to DMs with any other info/transaction ID if needed

—What do you think the tiebreaker should be after 7 games at 3x OT?

[David Ram @dtiwari19]

@Davie_Campbell @GMJacobAagaard @sidarok I agree on all counts.

—- chess needs to become fun to watch and the streams need to be better

— also it was a disservice to the two woman playing simultaneously in the final

Stagger the woman’s and men’s events like boxing does so people tune in for all events @FIDE_chess

[David Ram @dtiwari19]

@GMJacobAagaard @sidarok @GMJacobAagaard

I was disgusted at first.

But it’s not match fixing.

—-Carlsen clearly wanted to win

—-But didn’t want to risk losing

—- he could have forced draws 10x more times

Maybe reevaluate time controls after 3X OT to give a clear winner.

No increment perhaps?

@_jonaldjames @StrykerAce007 @alexandrabotez @FIDE_chess This will likely be my last post on X in years, I want to try to keep it positive

— We agree that the change in dress code for @FIDE_chess and @MagnusCarlsen was the best outcome

As stated previously, I hope that chess continues to grow & more kids play

Happy New Year!

[David Ram @dtiwari19]

@_jonaldjames @StrykerAce007 @alexandrabotez @FIDE_chess My premise, going back to my initial Mahomes tweet

Was not whether or not a dress code rule existed

—-but how it was enforced compared to other sports leagues (fines)

—-specifically compared to the highest revenue generating sport in the world in the NFL

I rest my case

[David Ram @dtiwari19]

@_jonaldjames @StrykerAce007 @alexandrabotez @FIDE_chess You attacked my NFL analogy on uniform infractions as

“disingenuous”
“false equivalency” &
“nonsense”

—-I defended my opinion with several examples

—- @FIDE_chess Cleary agrees that the jeans were minor- Rules were changed 1 day later to allow Magnus to play in jeans

[David Ram @dtiwari19]

@_jonaldjames @StrykerAce007 @alexandrabotez @FIDE_chess lol I read your post about NFL rules.

—-Still 0 examples of the NFL removing someone from a game because of a uniform infraction

— sure, any opinion is subjective,

@ FIDE_chess seems to agree with me that it was minor as they changed the rules the next day to allow jeans

[David Ram @dtiwari19]

@_jonaldjames @StrykerAce007 @alexandrabotez @FIDE_chess I never said the NFL doesn’t have a uniform rule

—I compared how chess enforces a minor uniform infraction compared to the NFL

— You provided 0 examples of the NFL kicking a player out mid competition because of uniform

I provided several examples of NFL implementing fines

[David Ram @dtiwari19]

@_jonaldjames @StrykerAce007 @alexandrabotez @FIDE_chess You just admitted that their are 0 examples of NFl players actually being removed from the game for uniform violations

—- yes, I haven’t commented on X in years so I will admit I could have replied in the wrong spot

[David Ram @dtiwari19]

@_jonaldjames @StrykerAce007 @alexandrabotez @FIDE_chess Provide me 1 example of an NFl player being removed from a game because of a dress code or uniform violation

—I have several examples of fines for dress code/ uniform violations
