The Cutoff: $280K for apestyles, donktags for everyone else

In The Cutoff, we bring you up to speed on the latest antics from the BBZ community and the poker world at large.

Memes of the week:

If you can’t spot the sucker in your first half-hour at the table, you’re probably drunk.

The rest of the table when you’re playing 2/5NL & a guy sits down, orders a double rum & Coke then posts UTG. pic.twitter.com/nm5n3bYzmd

It’s all so bittersweet.

Are you sure you should have said that?

Take shots at our poker plays by all means, but leave the hair out of it, yeah?

OK, maybe don’t take shots at our poker plays.

What do you reckon: punt or no punt?

Right after this clip ended, I jumped straight into the chat box and wrote ‘How do you like them apples son??’ 🍎 🍎 pic.twitter.com/CT26lPTg0g

You tha real MVP:

Twitch poker sensation Arlie Shaban has been working hard on his game, using the apestyles bundle and coaching from Jordan “bigbluffzinc” Drummond to improve his game.

The results speak for themselves. Read our interview with Arlie Shaban here.

5 years ago, #Twitch legend @ArlieShaban was a break-even player with no clue what ‘poker study’ was.

This week, he won a major title for $19,707.

Shaban tells us about his journey to improve, the book that lit a fire in him, & why he adores @apestyles.https://t.co/GbW0FJV6UV

Our friend, No Jumper founder and all-round legend Adam “Adam22” Grandmaison, has also been crushing lately. Like Shaban, he thanks BBZ for the improvements he’s made.

Mega thanks to @BBZPoker for making me capable of scores like this

We spoke to Adam22 recently – don’t miss this interview.

A big shout out to a member of the BBZ community, “JustTrappedU”, who took down a massive series saver in the PokerStars Blowout Series.

A 1st place in a series saver?? Consider that series SAVED. JustTrappedU took the last chopper out of ‘nam with this one. Cashing for $85,000 in one of the last events in the Blowout Series. Reckless. 🚁

Congratulations JustTrappedU! 👏 🏆 pic.twitter.com/B3I8pT6VOl

Keep the kind words coming guys:

Not that he needs it, but I have to give a shout out to @apestyles for his @BBZPoker poker bundle which I got yesterday. Even though I’m only 75% through an initial play through, I can already see it represents incredible value. Great stuff!

Oh, and how could we forget?

BBZ coach Jonathan “apestyles” Van Fleet had a massive score, finishing second in the WPT Montreal $25K Super High Roller for $280K.
