As someone who has also chowed down on Guy Fieri’s Trash Can Nachos during a short gap in an intense conference environment: Joy speaks the truth.

Joy o Napping

Apparently they are a Thing and I didn’t know!

Hey Dave! I was in Vegas last week and left you a message on the Patreon. Did you get it? I’m sure you were busy. It’s a warm message you would have definitely responded to so probably it just flew by or it never went through.

Vincent Tan

lol I didn't know I came off like a dick, sorry joy! it was definitely said half in jest, though I was really hoping Dave would pull it off. was great to finally meet you guys as well.

David Chen

Douglas: Got the message. Thank you so much! did you hear my acknowledgement at the end of this episode?

Ink Ribbon

Aah! No I didn’t even listen to the whole episode yet. I’m only about twenty minutes it. Looking forward to hearing it! Thanks Dave!

I find hard to believe you are not ready for the main event. The main hurdle would be the buy-in, but skill wise I doubt you are not ready as the volume of folks is so large.

Ryan Blanz

The idea of the same speech over and over is brilliant.

Ryan Blanz

Women who are in poker put up with a lot. The main person I talk about hands with and strategy is female and I have heard stories. For a game I love, it’s a big awful part.

Ryan Blanz

That All-In feeling especially when you have a low stack is fuckin great

Ryan Blanz

Do you play any other games or just Texas hold’em? Also, good to hear about the Jonathan(so?) Little poker stuff. I was just thinking about signing up.

Ink Ribbon

Dave. Do you remember that scene in Casino Royale when Bond lost all his money and Felix spots him $500,000, I think? Then we get edit dissolve...and Bond wins all that money back and then some? I know you're no poker expert yet, but, c'mon, is that realistic??? lol

Joy o Napping

You did not come off like a dick except due to my total ignorance! 😂

David Chen

Mr Bond is probably just extremely good at poker

Ink Ribbon

I mean yeah but c’mon…$500,000 to over 100 million? Your story about that guy who kept going all in multiple times reminded me of this sequence. Mr. Bond had to go all in several times in a row to get back in the game and no one could be THAT lucky. Yes. It’s a movie.

Noah

Resumed my subscription for this episode. Love the poker content, Dave. Keep it coming!

Rosa

welp. you guys made a nearly 2 hour podcast on your trip really interesting! I don't like poker very much but I liked hearing you talk about it. I liked this episode a lot and I look forward to hearing more about your adventures ..thanks for making it!

Reynaldo K. Cruz

Congrats Dave! Love this but am baffled that rounders isn’t constantly referenced especially regarding instructional bits to the non poker audience. Maybe do an episode reviewing it here from your new perspective as a winning poker player?

Mike Harris

Good listen. Gotta say it hurt my soul that you folded AK to sneak into the money tho. Assuming this was a standard preflop situation.

David Chen

even worse, I was in the big blind facing a min raise!

Warpstone

I must say this was a great listen. Congrats on cashing in. Always great to hear how your poker journey is going.

Mike Harris

Well thats commiserate with some of humanity’s greatest crimes. But I’m still a Chenhead.

Mike Harris

How many blinds in your stack?
