thanks to a generous donor I played my very first MTT at the World Series of Poker #WSOP … after I forgot everything I learned from play money and trainers last year. Even as a memory champion I forget. How did it go? (1/7)

I’m in this looking at this list I still think there should be more documentaries made by and featuring women

🔥 WOMEN in the #WSOPMainevent 2022 #2 (!) Efthymia Litsou - 146BB (avg rn is 52!) #96 Shelby Wells - 24BB GL!!! 💪💪 going into day 6 123 players left out of 8663 entrants guaranteed earnings = $62,500

one of the most costly mental habits I noticed was knowing the right thing to do but going against it. I really wanted to stay but the right thing to do was rest so I left. But I absolutely LOVED this trial by fire initiation🔥 so see you next year if not sooner… (7/7)

My World Memory Championship level focus wasn’t sustainable for poker- by level 7 I was pretty done. At level 10 (~12 hours after play had started) my body just wanted out and went all in with a somewhat mediocre hand, so with only 30 minutes of day 1 left I was out. (6/7)

I almost walked away from the table with my chips (not good). I kept people’s chips by accident because I couldn’t do the simple math to return what was owed. I forgot to verbalize my actions so I bet way more than I intended and called when I intended to bet many times. (5/7)

I had some green tea and some of the implicit memories from trainers kicked in and I made some really good folds on the turn + river (and somehow had a group of baddies explain during the break that it was entirely the right move on every street - Ty!!). (4/7)

in the middle of a hand post-flop, I had to look at a little card with hand rankings on it to see if three of a kind is better than two pair (it was and it is!) (3/7) If you’re are at my table do you

@jenshahade : “let’s talk strategy, you’re under the gun - what is your range?” me: “is under the gun before the button?” (2/7)

when I first was asked to join @howtojohnwilson for a blip the idea sounded old mainly because I've thought for years that a nature doc about Swedes in their natural habitat would be 🔥 #Swedengate is just the tip of the iceberg, you ain't seen nothing yet. Swedish culture wild.
