1:27 has 5 clubs, throws away his club king in order to get a club flush. His plans are measured in centuries

[@nyahgust]

alright now we've reached backseating that makes no sense-he thought the pair of kings would get him there but kept the remaining clubs so he could get another club flush. obviously just taking the club flush he had probably would've gotten him there but he got distracted by the pair of kings. he didn't throw away the club king, he used it in a pair because he thought it'd get him there.

[@trehairston1840]

@@nyahgust dude just stop you are trying to correct this comment to take up for his bad play. It was bad in every way u look at it, he’s not paying attention and that’s what the chatter is saying (not backs seating). If he saw the flush and though the king pair was enough, then why wouldn’t flush with king and jack be, btw jack is also a face card giving him the mult bonus. You “happy-being-stupid” commenters need to stop when someone points out the truth of a misplay, it only makes him better if he actually listen to the criticism which is please pay attention. Sorry everyone isn’t like you and okay with mediocrity

Had Tribulet, Yorick, Lucky Cat, Blueprint, Sock And Buskin and Baron with a pimped out King deck and got killed on ante 16 because I didn't pay attention to the boss blind despite having the option to reroll it. It started so similar to NL's first run it almost felt like dejavu and my reaction was so similar to his when I read All Face Cards Are Debuffed 😂. Overconfidence truly is a slow and insidious killer.

Guys I have 3 questions: 1) Is Tomo his wife, or his daughter? Why is he constantly saying hi Tomo? 2) Who is Andrew and why does he talk about Andrew this much? Something like a secret lover? But his partner can also watch the stream... 3) Why does he like dipping stuff in Mona Lisa's chili oil? Particularly what is special about Mona Lisa's chili oil in this context? Does Canada have a chili oil brand called Mona Lisa? If so then why? Da Vinci had expertise on many things but cooking like a master chef

[@inversionist5928]

tomo is his cat

[@hoebare]

The Andrew thing is a morph of something his friend Dan Gheisling started of taling about "Andies". Dan has so many weird expressions that it's collectively known as Danglish. The Mama Liz's chili oil thing is a bit inspired by a video that came up during one of his streaming sessions. It's not worth knowing, you're not missing anything.
