USNA grad. Lawyering, pokering, DFSing, proving any moron can FT a bracelet event, & having my sports bets limited to $11.28. NLHE rots your brain. Go Bills!

Did not spin. On to the next!

Through to Day 3 in the Colossal shitshow! Will need to spin on Monday!

Colossal shitshow, Day 2.

[Michael Oar @michaeloar]

All the work with the sims is paying off! Arrived in Vegas late last night. 2nd hand of Colossus this morning. Utg raise 2.1bb, HJ call, CO 3! 8bb, Btn call, sb fold, and I have JJ in the big blind. Have not been drilling this spot...🤣🤣

Spoiler: CO has AA and Btn has J7ss

I was hoping for an Oar x 2 final table and we got close! @michaeloar 6th and I got 20th! 🍀🎉

@jsmith84poker @MattStoutPoker @rcfox @PokerCPAs Agree. Only thing I'd add is that Schollenberger rejected the 1-year/1-casino = session approach. Mr & Mrs S argued "we're net losers this year at the only casino we play at, so we have $0 winnings" (they didn't itemize). Camp misses this nuance (only 1 property) in his article.

Old people problems? I know I'm supposed to go play a $600 tournament with a $750k guarantee that is 15 mins from my house....but can't i just stay home??

[James McCool @Paydirt_DFS]

I don't play near as much as I used to but sometimes I have to remind everyone I am still good at DFS

Shoutout the Portfolio Manager at PaydirtDFS dot com, been a huge boost to my MME play in testing

[Michael Oar @michaeloar]

@NickMarchington Correct! Glgl!

[Michael Oar @michaeloar]

@abbypoker_ Don't degen in the pits. Please. That will only end one way (well, maybe 2 ways, but neither is good).

[Michael Oar @michaeloar]

Got em for a little bit! Thanks @Paydirt_DFS

@berkey11 @PhilGalfond @ThePokerBaffer Believe Al Capone also relied on the "no w-2 . . .finesse" strategy.

@Vegasrider2 @capjack2000 @RWM21 I guess that's a solution if tax evasion is part your filing strategy.

[Michael Oar @michaeloar]

@BobMatherPoker @TuckonSports @BartHanson @grok @grok is wrong. You will only be able to deduct 90% of your losses. If you win $550k, and then lose $600k, instead of having taxable gambling winnings of $0, you will now owe tax on $550k - 90% of $600k -- or $10k...
