Dabo. He’s been playing the long game. Bring your own guts was him speaking in code. He always whispers *the bag* wherever he says All In. The Y in IPTAY is Yakuza

staring at the screen, no ideas, the empty prompt window confronting you with your own mediocrity -- welcome to the work, chump, you loser.
