My offer was 100% real. I won’t keep offer on the table much longer because we have to work the details.
Let me know today if interested or I pull offer
Years ago I was different and in a different place in life. Then would have played any opportunity got and I still believe in my ability to play poker, nothings changed. Except now in 2025 collect disability and am disabled. Getting a W2G or 1099MISC (any gambling incomes) after winning any money would cause me to eventually lose Disability, and my health insurance and dental. So really risk/reward of me playing a $400 is idiotic. I appreciate the generous offer but give my life situation playing and cashing any WSOP, or anything gambling including a Slot Machine win (W2G obv..) means id lose Disability.
I'd disqualify myself from receiving SSI (Low income Disability) which also is my health insurance and dental, and over a lifetime is very important. Hard to even get disability under 50 years old and I'm only 46, so really fortunate to have gotten help when I needed it.
Playing any WSOP means being willing to get a W2G when you win, effectively losing disability then for myself which is too great a cost, over a lifetime so apologize but can not play. Although very much appreciate the sincere and generous offer..
