Arrived and it's gonna b okay.

Baby Knox fell back and hit his head. He hits his head a lot, but momma thought this go around he was acting funny from it. I was told he hit the corner of the table pretty hard.
Doc said a small closed skull fracture and staying the night for observation. Leave in the morning if no symptoms. No surgery needed. It will heal naturally on its own.

What a day!!

I'm tired.

Pretty excited to see on Alleginatair that Louisville SDF will start offering flights to LV starting in Nov. I saw a lot of cheap $100 rt flights.

Direct flights? The significant other may not be happy but long weekend flights once or twice a month could be quite profitable.

Direct flights, but $100 each way, not rt. I looked at it wrong. Still pretty sweet this airport is now flying cheap flights to LV. Less than $200 rt.

Being real and transparent to the followers has always been the forefront in documenting my journey. I want people to know that poker isn't always sexy, it comes with a lot of hardships. So without being allowed to video or pic anywhere on HSI property, or my chip stacks, or my safety dep box, etc wd b hard to make the 40k transparent.
HSI wins and gets me to fold on the #40kChallenge, but we don't sweat the small stuff. Life moves on, and champs stay up. Let's get that next thang.

Secondly, not sure @Yster if this thread hasn't anything to offer anymore. The 40k is over, utubbing for me is pretty much over, The Melody is over, stocks are over (for now), and all the monies went to pay off my house. No story here anymore.

It's back to square 1...grinding poker.
Right now the game plan is run it up until I have enough for a Tesla. Just hope the truck can hang on by then.
I think you're taking the easy way out. You need to finish the challenge, and you need a personal goal anyway. You've lost one month. Make the goal 36k for the year.

The vlog can continue, just not at the casino or the chips. No big deal. It's just chip-porn to everyone else, and the videos are fine without the casino.

Suck it up and get back to work!

I never left work. Been grinding the American Legion, Moose Lodge, KoC all in Indy last month. Now entering HSI this morning for the first time since been banned. Poker is what I do. It always will until I don’t need to do it as much. This is my work. I will continue to crush 1/2nl, but the vlogs will b dull without the proof. They were already lame before, so w/o anything Horseshoe related it wd just b more of me. Imo, no one wants to see that.

Odds of getting the perma ban today 2:1

Following your twitter and am a big fan Ray, but throwing the reinstatement letter away and not taking it with you on your first trip back is insanity on your first trip back, even with a picture.

I'm sure they'll send you another one if you ask though.

Yeah and I been following your Facebook. You may want to set that to friends only. I was surprised to hear that you don’t think America is that great. I hope you never get to come back to any of the Horseshoes. You should be banned in America too!

This is not a political blog. Any person can have whatever political views they want. It is not your right to bring an unstated view to this poker blog.

According to the letter I thought I was reinstated too, but didn’t know I had to bring the letter. If someone wd hv let me know I had to bring the letter I wd hv. The picture of the exact same letter isn’t gd enough.
The letter is in the trash, and I can’t get issued a new one. Absurdity.
Still looking for answers.

That’s my opinion. It’s gd, not great.
we started off stealing this land from Native Americans. 400 years of slavery consisting of torture and rape. On top of that, we hv national anthem that celebrates the death of slaves. Lives lost based on lies and corruption. Kids losing fathers in wars we had no business being in. Sidenote; I feel not all soldiers are heroes. Ask the Vietnamese who were raped. We have more murders than any other country. A national debt that is laughable. I cd go on and on...social inequalities, dirty cops, money driving politics etc etc.

USA is liveable, but not great by my standards. I can live here orderly while also acknowledging it’s not that great.
I wd never hang a flag from my house, or fight for this country.
