Busted to the table fish in the @shrpo big o. He raised pot preflop late position and I full repotted from the blinds, and then potted again on flop. So many bricks possible, but he hit perfect runner runner. Going to reenter. Started the hand with around 35k at 300 600. https://t.co/7LJUDcVWoX
Bagged 143,500 chips from 50k starting stack last night on second bullet of day1a @shrpo @WPT main event. Average stack is 158k so we are right in the mix going into day 2 this Sunday with 298 remaining. Massive field, they already hit the $3m gtd with 945 entries on day 1a. https://t.co/ovBCA80B00

One of the biggest exploits in large field poker MTTs is finding spots to fold top pair in spots where people don’t bluff enough Playing $3500 @WPT @shrpo main, already found a few spots to overfold. Sitting on 30bbs on dinner break when I probably should be out 💪 #stayingalive https://t.co/eUDWRZLPej
