Poker pro, YouTuber and UpSwing Poker founder Doug Polk is often seen to be very active in voicing out his opinions on social media (more like Twitter) in the most fearless and most sarcastic ways. This time he boldly admitted to losing a lot of money in poker (or so he claims).
Earlier today, Polk shared a post on Twitter wherein he indirectly implied that he has lost massive sums of money. He wrote, “Seeing a lot of chatter about people who silently and humbly won massive amounts of money in poker. I’d like to throw my hat into the ring as the complete opposite.” (sic)
Polk implied that a lot of people on the internet have been talking about players who have won massive amounts of money by playing poker. He further added that he would like to disagree in that case since it has been the complete opposite for him.
Seeing a lot of chatter about people who silently and humbly won massive amounts of money in poker.
I'd like to throw my hat into the ring as the complete opposite.

One user called ‘Uncle Bob’ took the opportunity to call out Polk and replied to the tweet asking if he was losing money and would not shut up then. The UpSwing Poker founder replied saying “If you’re gonna make fun of me, at least make your own joke.”

Another user by the name ‘zenbets23’ took this opportunity to mock Polk on his recent controversial statements on the now world-famous Robbi Lew – Garrett Adelstein cheating saga. The user sarcastically asked Polk if he plays poker too, and that he thought the three-time World Series Of Poker (WSOP) bracelet winner just makes videos for ‘spreading rumors under the guise of a self appointed investigator.’
You play poker? I thought you just make videos spreading rumors under the guise of a self appointed investigator.

A player named ‘Brock Parker’ dragged Allen Kessler into the conversation “I think the opposite is actually @AllenKessler”

Well, we wonder whom Polk was hinting at. Was he taking a dig at six-time WSOP bracelet winner Daniel Negreanu, his most famous Twitter enemy/frenemy, who recently won $3.3 million in prize money after winning the Super High Roller Bowl title and bought a brand new Tesla Model S with that money?
