-=- This is a subject near and dear to my own heart; the Steem Poker League. The @SPL and www.lucksacks.com is where I found my partner, my community and my closest friends.
I can tell you for a fact that @SPL has something for everyone. If you’re new to the game of Poker and you want to learn, we’re here to help. If you’re a poker professional and want some good action, we’ve got that, too. Want to just throw your chips around and see what happens? There are a few players I’d like to introduce you to. :)
@SPL and Lucksacks was founded by one of my favorite humans in this world, @tuck-fheman, and I am privileged to call him friend. An upstanding veteran of the Steemit community, he’s wicked smart and funny as hell.
So check out this article! It shows you how the tables will look if you’re nervous about playing, and gives easy instruction to sign up. Check us out in the discord https://discord.gg/vC64xQc, I’m there… um… often. ;)
Hope to see you soon! -=-

You should buy an iPhone 8 instead of an iPhone X.

-=- I have been an iPhone owner since the first model, and yes, I'm still a huge fan.
This article is extremely helpful for anyone debating between the two new iPhones, 8 and X.
@duytruongnhuyen has made sure to cover just about everything! The article is geared towards the iPhone 8, and gives many reasons why one should choose it over the X.
If I was due for a new phone, this would have totally persuaded me. -=-
