Wow, Druff. Your primary argument that it wouldn't be practical for the WSOP to require people to show their vaccination card is super weak. Almost LOL, level.

At 3:47:34 -- Druff quoting the argument on the other side-- "Well what if you forget to bring your ID, its the same thing". Druff's response, "No it's not because people are used to bringing their ID everywhere."

Is all you got? Your main objection to showing a vaccine card is that people don't have enough personal responsibility to bring evidence of vaccination when the requirement will be blasted EVERYWHERE if they institute such a rule?

And my objection to you using the word papers in your tweet was not that you were some anti-vaxer, which I know that you are not, but that you are playing both sides of this issue, once again. I don't buy the fact that you just casually used the word papers in quotes as opposed to just saying vaccination card. You were implying the WSOP would be making some sort of big brother, authoritarian play.

I do agree with you, however, that it is very unlikely that the WSOP will not fuck something like this up. If they are going this direction they should add an app or a place in an existing app like playWSOP to upload their vaccination card ahead of time. But that makes sense so it most likely won't happen.

Brother nobody wants to show their “papers”

Do you understand?

Do you understand?

Druff said in the show that he wouldn't object to showing the WSOP his vaccination card. I don't really care what the rules are, I am not pushing for a vax requirement at the WSOP because of saftey but it could make sense for them to have one this year to standardized the rules and for lack of ambiguity.

Also NickyPipes, I tried to get Ryan Feldman to give you a shoutout when he did his interview with Druff last week but he couldn't get it together enough to remember what I told him to say.

[BartHanson]

4:06:20-- "Bart Hanson is a very vocal pro-vaxer. And mocks anti-vaxers all time time on twitter."

Show me a single instance of where I have mocked an anti-vaxer on twitter.

BTW I agree with the caller at 4:13:00 100%. I want to play at the WSOP, I'm not concerned about other people not being vaccinated. I just want standardization in the rules.

[go_buccos]

I have to agree with Bart here.

Also Sisolak put out a new directive at some point in the last few days stating that large indoor events can be mask-free if proof of vaccination is required. If I were in charge of the WSOP that is certainly the way I would want to go at this point.

Also agree with both Bart and Todd that they'll fuck it up no matter what they decide to do.

Brother Pipes does NOT listen to PFA Radio, you think Pipes is sitting “around” for 5 hours listen to Druff ramble about clipping coupons?

Brother who is “Ryan” Feldman?

Brother thank you very much for the shoutout, I will have my team find it in the episode and cut me a clip of the audio. Brother I consider it an honor
