Non-zero chance I get my AMEX revoked someday for piling Centurion Lounge food into Tupperware I slide into my carry-on. Only the Vegas one has reprimanded me, so maybe they watch Rice's channel and know the trick

Lmao.

How often do you use it.

I had the Amex platinum for a year. I used the lounges maybe 5-6 times.

My dream was to find a rich woman to take care of me in there but no such luck.

He got ate up with margin calls though and missed out on potentially MILLIONS because of it. He’s gone busto or close to it several times. He got tied up in the GameStop/meme frenzy and when Robin Hood shut down trading he went nuts and even drove to California to protest outside Robin Hood HQ. He eventually started building a roll back in his portfolio and got lucky on a speculative crypto investment and ran it up to just over $1M. He didn’t lock it up and eventually lost about 70% of it before finally cashing out. He took the proceeds and paid cash for a house, leaving himself with practically nothing. He’s continued to grind poker,has built custom putting greens and painted custom basketball courts since then and has split up and got back together with his wife and they currently are back together in a house he bought last year. He’s in the process of building a pickle ball court and is documenting the progress.

I've seen the Gamestop type story quite a bit. If it were me, I'd be out after making a couple hundred bucks. The ones that hang on to watch it run up into the hundreds of thousands are exceedingly greedy. That same greed often kills them later because they keep wanting more and they lose most or all of their profit.

Should've asked Diesel for some divvy advice.

Maybe next time they are both at Westgate. While he's there he can also get advice from Uncle Trooper on how to sponge a 20% freeroll in the Main Event.

If he is good at building those two things, he should stick to doing that for a living (assuming there is a demand for it).

Is this Herbs and Rye at the TOC being streamed now? I have only seen him a couple short times and you guys say he is a crusher so it would make sense if so.

The Orleans tournament series starts this weekend, so he might be scheduled to work. I haven't seen anywhere that he even wants to play in the WSOP.

I think he won at least 2 Circuit rings. That = crusher in my book.

LMFAO at quitting your job after a $20K score.

At this point, Pman might as well just panhandle at the series with a pic of his second place Employee's Event last year.

I've never seen someone so desperate to be a poker pro yet dedicate so little time at achieving it.

Not even close. There is still lot of way down. For example a phase when he starts grinding Gatorade's or other lousy comps.

It'd be more sad if he intentionally asked for a staking knowing that's not what's being offered.

As someone who has staked a couple people and been staked for mid-high stakes, there's nothing more "turn-off" than a random msging you out of the blue asking for a stake. It's like, red alert, alarm bells.

Poker one of the few communities where strangers will msg you on discord or instagram and ask for $500-$2000 staking, while they claim they are XYZ stats.
