I’d almost given up hope of #PokerSky taking off when @electricalwsop.bsky.social passed. But now it has, I’ve split off my poker posts from other stuff; if you’ve decided my #poker takes are nonsense, and you’d rather see snark about politics and cat photos, try @darrelplant.bsky.social.

in the past ive compared it to a comic book/fantasy/scifi fandom. sure, in the dc comics chat we can get into the varied details of the post-crisis/absolute dc dichotomy but if i start shouting about the red/blue superman and jason todd coming back to life on the subway i look unhinged.

this is about local Portland politics, where the city council is divided between liberals and the DSA, and the DSA councilors regularly take the stage at No Kings. You could try to extrapolate that from context, but it's ok, society is sliding into illiteracy so at least you won't be alone

Playing 5-Card PLO Lockout at Portland Meadows. Late-regging with 10 minutes left. Forgot my card cap but hardly anyone else uses them in Omaha anyway…

Got excited because @thehendonmob.bsky.social notified me Muckleshoot Casino outside Seattle had "one new festival" on their page—their last tournament festival was just before COVID and they closed down the poker room years ago—but it must have been results from six years ago!

Kind of hoping that since I used to be kind of known in Portland that I get picked as one of the Portland Meadows Masters for their Bounty series at the end of April but that my bounty would be set appropriately *below* the level of everyone else, like you'd get maybe $50 total for my KO.

Overall pleased with how I did, particularly considering 3/4 of the tournaments I played last year weren't NLHE. Would have liked a deeper run, but 24/612 was decent; I came into Day 2 in 43rd of 72 players, so I laddered up a bit; one of the top 3 stacks was 2 spots to my left; and I made a profit
Coming in to Event 1 of the #ChinookWinds #PacWestPokerClassic midway through Level 2 with 22K (20K start + 2K dealer appreciation). 100/200bba
