In one of Hustler's latest streams, Jungleman once again appeared in an unforgettable costume.

Recently, Hustler has often been played with fun bounties, with participants chipping in $12.5k to the overall prize pool.

The session was a failure for Cates, but the result is not the most important thing for him. It is much more important to find a positive expectation in any situation.

“Collected 15$ vig to flip for 40k,” Dan bragged.

“Nit,” Alan Keating commented, because a $40k flip is just a starting point for the King of Flips.

Football, boxing, and basketball legends, a founder of a failed marijuana empire, an influencer, a streamer, and a pro punter sat down for a poker game.

Allen Kessler hit the slots jackpot yesterday.

“Omg this just fuckin' happened!

Covers my entire WSOP debacle with $1m to spare!” said a shocked Allen.

Now he faces a difficult choice: to receive all the winnings over 20 years, or to take them all at once, but only part of them. He put out a poll on Twitter.

Ok math nerds.

I finally have the 2 options available for my 1.2m slot win.

Option 1 is $60,505 annually for the next 20 years.

Option 2 is a discounted although very generous lump sum offer of $805,120.

It seems like a slam dunk to take the $805K unless I'm missing something.

State your case for either option in the comments so I can make an informed decision.

Almost everyone agreed that they should immediately take what they are offered.

Matt Glantz was sure:

These two things are not equal. Not even close to equal. Plus you are down in tournaments this current year. You won't have to pay the full tax amount on the lump sum. You can also play tournaments for the rest of 2024 at a discounted effective buyin.
Congrats. 💪

Berkey noted the obvious, "This is a question for your accountant, not Twitter. I suspect tax implications along with dollar utility will be the deciding factor. Seems at least close to me unless you can mostly write the winnings off."

Allen revealed that he invested about $12,000 into the machine before hitting the dream sequence.

A couple of hours after the jackpot, Kessler went to play a $400 Omaha-8 tournament.

BenCB posted a hand from the pre-final of the last GG Millions between Addamo and Visbrod.

Occasionally calling 9high for Tournament life for a split pot in a $10,000 Tournament with 13 left 😱

In the comments, Ben was told that the call was not with 9-high, but with a full house, and there was nothing special about it. At first, Ben tried to have a civilized dialogue, but quickly realized the futility of this idea.

You dont get it right? He is playing the board. He can never win the pot.
He calls off his entire stack just to hope he is splitting against a range of Kx and all pocketpairs.
Its basically for him a 12bb bet into a pot of 5bb

“This guys just lucky he hit the river so Addamo couldn’t stack him with 9 high,” Amit Makhija noted.

Kevin Martin has compiled a list:

List of the best things in life:

Jeremy Ausmus' niece has a good chance of winning a gold medal at the Paris Olympics.

“My cousin brought his family out from Riverside a few years back because his kids had a water polo tournament in Vegas,” Jeremy recalled a few days before the start of the competition. “We went and watched the games and were surprised (because of how modest him and his wife are) how his 2 kids, aged 11 and 13 at the time, seemed to score all the goals and very apparently dominate. Fast forward a few years later and his daughter is the youngest on the US Olympic Water Polo team at 18 years old. It's been quite a sacrifice as she skipped her first year of college to train but seemingly paid off for her. I'm so damn excited to watch some Olympic water polo which starts tomorrow!!!! Let's go Emily!!!”

The U.S. women's team has won medals in the last six Olympics, including gold in the last three.

On the very first Sunday after the WSOP, Niklas Ostedt loaded up a full session online.

“bro lena is in the sunday grand prix,” Patrick Leonard was amazed when he saw Niklas in a $125 tournament.

“Lenas gonna ship the main and play the big 109 this Sunday isn’t he,” Max Silver almost accurately predicted the day before the final table.

Daniel Negreanu Celebrates 50th Birthday:

As was the case last year, three major series will be held simultaneously in December – WPT at Wynn, EPT in Prague, and WSOP in the Bahamas.

"Where will you go?" Patrick Leonard asked .

Joseph Cheong has only two options to choose from:

“I’m for Prague,” Jason Mo disagreed. “It’s much better than the other two locations, not even close.”

– Yes, I would also prefer to chill in Prague, if I had a couple of extra millions, with which I would put players on the other two series.

Shaun Deeb reminded that he does not use poker software:

My favorite part about this solver issue for main event ft is my coaching rate can double for next year because I’m quite sure wsop will ban it on the rail next time

– How much do you charge?

– Usually 1-2% of ICM.

Mike McDonald took a poll :

Question for pro poker players.

WSOP main day 1, you've gone to the casino, paid your buyin, walking to find your starting table.

Someone offers you cash to not participate. How much do you need before you say yes?

Chris Brewer:

– Pure ev probably 8k or something? Plenty of other poker to play in Vegas during main. Adding in emotional reasons for wanting to play like 15k.

“That’s 100% a lie,” wrote one reader.

– Pay me 15k rn to not play the main next year please

"what’s your Venmo?"

Evans6:

– $12k, $2k for the drive and saving me 3.5 days of misery seems right.

Jason Strasser:

– I’d do a 36k or 0 flip.

Faraz Jaka:

– $20k.

Alex Petersen:

– $9k.

A tweet was found in the internet archives, showing how, back in 2013, Joe McKeehen found himself in the same company with young regulars:

– Eating a dinner in New Orleans with Tamayo, Kuether, Weinman, Nitsche, Jake Schwartz, Phil Hui, and two randoms.

Three people from this company subsequently won the WSOP main event, and the rest also had successful poker careers.

“Imagine what this dinner table was gonna be like over 10 years later,” Tamayo fantasized.

“Can’t see original post…” Daniel Weinman asked.

Ed. – McKeehen has a private account, his tweets are visible only to followers.

Tamayo posted a screenshot.

– Makes sense I only follow nice guy main event champs.

“We must find out who the 2 randoms are,” Dominic Nitsche became interested.
