Dude just come to Vegas for the next couple weeks hit up a CPL crappy dispensaries and get backed for 2/5-5/10 nlz

The government blows our money on stupid **** every day, plus the money gambled has already been taxed multiple times, they've gotten their fair share. I don't think anyone should have to pay taxes on gambling winnings period.

Good job and as usual good luck

One thing tho, don’t assume that any negative feedback is being a naysayer. There are some ppl just waiting for u to fail. However, there are some, like myself, who have had some contrary views to yours but are rooting for u. A true friend is someone who is honest and gives you an honest opinion. I think there are lots of ppl here who have been supportive and critical, but at the end it’s just them sharing thoughts with a hope that you reach and exceed #Tesla goals.

I have learned lots from your thoughts you share here, but I have learned a lot from some of the thoughts others have shared showing different points of view.

Great point @loudpacquiao. I have been critical of some of BS's financial decisions too, but I hope nothing but the best for him.*

*I don't want the best for him when I see him at my table.

Well said @Loudpac and @Bahbahmickey!
I may hv been a little whiskey bent when I made that 1am post. I love the criticism and love to hear everyone’s opinion. I try my best to make pos ev decisions, but I’m not perfect.

Well this may b another financial choice that many dont agree w. Had a 1k ish day that brought us to $2300ish and ended up getting the putting green. Now leaving us short again w $500

I’m sorry but I cdnt wait. I wd like to use this before winter.

Come on!!!!

Love the green.

Love that green!
What is next? Did you say you were vlogging this?
I am one that doesn’t agree with your money habits, but you have made it so far. It would blow if you lost your last $500. Why do you continue to put yourself in these spots?

Yeppers agree

What a degen.

For putting in a putting green? It doesn’t look like BS has made any money the last couple months on the felt and is still getting by.
BS give us more information.

I’ll try to respond later to any questions u may hv.
Been busy all day w being lifeguard to neighborhood kids while opening up the other roll of fringe. Trying to get in place before we cut out our opening to the 3 holes and securing it down.

I understand. If I wasn’t #semiretired I wd b doing things totally different.

Ty. Tedious work today matching up the curvatures (green to fringe).



Ty. Yes vlogging the process. Correct, in another tight spot. Why do I do this to myself? Because I believe I can overcome.

Not sure what u want. Ur correct nothing to show on the poker side for last couple months. RTA has helped during these tough times, but that’s been peanuts. Barely getting by. Barely!!!

Not trolling at all, just seems like Rayz takes money from his wins to apply to different life expenses without keep $$ aside for the tax man at the end of the year.

Personally, I think Rayz needs to get a steady 9-5 job to supplement poker...having younger kids not really the best spot to be gambling with low stakes poker to pay for their day to day needs. I have two kids and would never want to gamble with money needed to pay for day care, diapers, food, etc.

Why did I come to this thread in the first place? Rayz's rants/tweets against HSI just happened to pop up on my timeline and just felt like responding. Personally, I wanted to play him heads up and offered several different options (locations/Buy in amounts) thinking based on his videos/tweets the money was not an issue.

Overall, Rayz seems like a nice guy and I don't wish him any ill will certainly want him to be able to support his children and live the semi-retired life. If you are having to sell posessions from around your house to support the poker roll time to look at other options.

I don't think the taxes on my business are proportional to others but still have to pay them each year, paid over 70K to Uncle Sam for 2017. I would love to keep that money for other ventures but that is the current law.

Completely agree that the Government is terrible at spending

When you throw out a bold faced lie and say "not trolling at all".
Anything you have to say after that is just more lies.

Laws are made to be broken

He already has another job that supplements poker. He is a landlord and he collects rent from his tenant. If you were reading the thread you would already know about all the upkeep his property has required over the last year: snow, leaf and trampoline removal, deck expansion and putting green installation.

Landlord? Tenant?
Did I miss something?

I thought he has a woman living with him paying rent every month.

His SO continues to pay her share of the mortgage (and day care) because Ray paid off the mortgage (and year's day care) with his Melody rental sale and ENPH profits cash.

Didn’t he also pay a lump sum to take care of daycare for the rest of the year?
Give the guy a break he is a winning player that has been downswinging the last couple months. It happens in this game.

Relax. We gd. Believel

Ray - you could easily raise a 10k stake just from this thread alone - I know I would be willing to invest. Seems like a better plan than what you are doing now.
