00:00:11.359 --> 00:00:16.760
Hello everyone, Welcome back to a
new episode of the Poker Go Podcast.

2
00:00:16.800 --> 00:00:21.039
My name is Donny Peters. I'm
joined by Tim Duckworth. How you doing,

3
00:00:21.079 --> 00:00:25.199
sir, I'm doing okay. Well
I have a bone depict. Oh,

4
00:00:25.280 --> 00:00:29.519
here we go. Every freaking night
we are here. Yep, twelve

5
00:00:29.679 --> 00:00:33.759
thirty one, one thirty two.
I don't know, way too late,

6
00:00:34.119 --> 00:00:39.200
way past our bedtime. As you
know, old asked dads. Now and

7
00:00:39.320 --> 00:00:44.880
I get a deal with the nonsense
of our colleagues. The high noon crew

8
00:00:45.399 --> 00:00:50.960
just screwing with these microphones. The
mixer's always all messed up, ship's unplugged,

9
00:00:50.960 --> 00:00:54.920
shit's plugged in over here like all. It's a disaster. It's it's

10
00:00:54.920 --> 00:00:58.560
really just disrespectful. It's there are
a bunch of animals, these guys.

11
00:00:58.640 --> 00:01:03.079
I mean, can they just put
the stuff back? This is our podcast

12
00:01:03.159 --> 00:01:07.920
equipment. Okay, they hijacked it
all to do their show. It Look

13
00:01:07.959 --> 00:01:11.840
it doesn't matter because they don't listen, so complaints gonna go on. Deaf

14
00:01:11.079 --> 00:01:15.640
is yeah, but it's just it's
frustrating every night. I gotta deal with

15
00:01:15.680 --> 00:01:18.799
this nonsense. Look, every single
run got a weak water go then they'll

16
00:01:18.799 --> 00:01:21.920
be out of our lives and we'll
go back town normal set obviously in the

17
00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:25.560
office. Oh Via harm it's another
week. We gotta deal with them for

18
00:01:25.640 --> 00:01:27.560
one more week, that's all.
Whatever. We can get through this,

19
00:01:27.959 --> 00:01:34.840
all right. It is the end
of day five of the twenty twenty three

20
00:01:34.840 --> 00:01:41.439
World Series of Poker Main event.
I would best describe this day as shit

21
00:01:41.640 --> 00:01:46.760
just got real, because the ship
just got real. Sorry for my lab

22
00:01:46.959 --> 00:01:51.280
as you out there, what are
you talking about? Today was an windable

23
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:53.280
day from you start. Can I
tell you why I don't feel that way?

24
00:01:53.640 --> 00:01:59.879
Look out in front of you.
What it's just it's not Donna HOWE

25
00:02:00.040 --> 00:02:01.040
want it? Well, yeah,
but that's not what I'm talking about.

26
00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:04.519
I'm talking about the actual poker play. You can complain about the layout of

27
00:02:04.519 --> 00:02:07.599
the we can get checkerboard me baby, Well, they're not going to checkerboard

28
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:12.000
you, I don't think um,
because they're setting up to have the three

29
00:02:12.080 --> 00:02:21.080
K six matches that today. It
was incredible. We had some absolutely crazy

30
00:02:21.159 --> 00:02:24.800
hands that happened all throughout the day. So there was that. We're pretty

31
00:02:24.879 --> 00:02:29.639
deep now in the field, one
hundred and forty nine players remaining. He

32
00:02:29.759 --> 00:02:32.719
had a bit of drama that was
happening up on the feature table, like,

33
00:02:34.360 --> 00:02:38.759
you know, the rails started to
build. I would say the rails

34
00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:42.560
have been pretty quiet overall so far
in the main event, which is you

35
00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:45.319
know, understandable. You do get
a little bit of a rail on the

36
00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:47.919
bubble. You know, everyone's like
friends and family are hanging out on the

37
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:53.400
rail making sure they get into the
money. But you know, oftentimes whether

38
00:02:53.520 --> 00:02:57.560
or not the player that's getting railed
is you know, continues on and goes

39
00:02:57.599 --> 00:03:00.599
deep or busts out right away,
the rail kind of dispersed, you know,

40
00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:02.639
for the next let's say, half
day, full day, whatever.

41
00:03:04.199 --> 00:03:08.000
But I would say after dinner break
here on day five, the rail started

42
00:03:08.000 --> 00:03:12.840
to pick up. You know,
there were people forming on the outside like

43
00:03:12.919 --> 00:03:15.439
it was. It was getting you
know, two or three heads deep in

44
00:03:15.479 --> 00:03:22.000
some sections. So it's building now
going forward where the prize money is extremely

45
00:03:22.120 --> 00:03:28.120
real currently guaranteed sixty seven thousand,
seven hundred dollars. Yeah, so still

46
00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:31.719
pushing towards the top one hundred.
Once they hit the top one hundred,

47
00:03:31.879 --> 00:03:35.680
a little bit into the top one
hundred, that's when you hit six figure

48
00:03:35.719 --> 00:03:38.199
cashing territory. You know, that's
a crap ton of money for a lot

49
00:03:38.199 --> 00:03:43.360
of people and yeah, that's when
it gets really out of control. But

50
00:03:43.439 --> 00:03:49.439
today was absolutely wild, super fun. If you missed the live stream coverage

51
00:03:49.439 --> 00:03:53.520
of today, I mean it was
by far one of the best live streams

52
00:03:53.560 --> 00:03:57.960
i've I can remember from the SPAMIN
events. I mean, you had some

53
00:03:58.159 --> 00:04:02.520
absolutely wild hands. You had players
kind of get it, getting napster with

54
00:04:02.560 --> 00:04:06.439
each other, you had big stacks
getting built, you had dreams getting crushed.

55
00:04:06.439 --> 00:04:10.400
I mean you you really did have
it all it was. It was

56
00:04:10.439 --> 00:04:14.960
a lot of fun. And then
kind of a byproduct of it is they

57
00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:20.240
had they had the live stream feed
playing out on the Paris side in the

58
00:04:20.279 --> 00:04:26.120
Big Paris Ballroom for some of the
tournaments that were running over there. They

59
00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:28.759
had a deep stack tournament going on. I think they had a six hundred

60
00:04:28.759 --> 00:04:34.800
dollar ultra stack going on, and
when those big hands were happening, there

61
00:04:34.879 --> 00:04:40.519
was massive roars of eruption. Depending
on what happened. There was a huge

62
00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:44.680
fold made by Toby Lewis at one
point when the like everyone just went bonkers.

63
00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:50.120
There was a massive hand between Ryan
Brown, I think it was Stuart

64
00:04:50.160 --> 00:04:56.319
Taylor and Bill Klein, Aces Kings
and an Ace Queen that resulted in Ace

65
00:04:56.399 --> 00:05:00.160
Queen winning with the Broadwayster. I
mean, it was just nuts. The

66
00:05:00.240 --> 00:05:02.959
day was absolutely nuts. On today's
show, we're going to talk about the

67
00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:08.079
one hundred and forty nine players remaining
after day five of the WSP Main Event.

68
00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:15.439
School teacher Zachary Hall holds the chip
lead. Two champions were bounced,

69
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:20.439
clearing the way for a new winner
of the WSP Main Event. Two female

70
00:05:20.439 --> 00:05:27.800
players remain. Sean Daniels won the
Lucky seven set, Davies leads the final

71
00:05:27.879 --> 00:05:30.319
twenty four and the twenty five no
limit. You got the twenty five k

72
00:05:30.439 --> 00:05:34.000
horse that is probably still on the
bubble. That bubble might take seventeen days.

73
00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:38.680
I feel like you had that six
hundred Ultra stack that I just referenced

74
00:05:39.199 --> 00:05:42.519
that guy underway. You also had
the three thousand dollars Pelo six Max getting

75
00:05:42.600 --> 00:05:46.360
underway. So yeah, we're gonna
get into all of it because it's great.

76
00:05:46.439 --> 00:05:47.879
Then, of course Tim wants to
talk about the tournament down the street,

77
00:05:48.199 --> 00:05:51.040
so we can talk about that too. I guess I'm not as tired

78
00:05:51.040 --> 00:05:56.040
as last night, so I will
allow yeah, about five minutes longer.

79
00:05:56.839 --> 00:06:01.560
I was so tired this morning I
had to wake up for a doctor appointment.

80
00:06:02.240 --> 00:06:08.160
Um My wife is pregnant with our
second child, doing like three weeks.

81
00:06:08.360 --> 00:06:10.160
So you know, we're at that
point where we've got to go on

82
00:06:10.199 --> 00:06:15.120
doctor's appointments every single week, and
she scheduled one for I think nine thirty

83
00:06:15.160 --> 00:06:18.079
today. Terrible scheduling by her.
Can we just start well, listen,

84
00:06:18.680 --> 00:06:23.639
the only time that I can go
to these is before the poker starts,

85
00:06:23.879 --> 00:06:27.399
right, So I can't go like
at three pm, you know, being

86
00:06:27.519 --> 00:06:31.439
a real die Hod poker die Hod, and I wouldn't go. I didn't,

87
00:06:31.480 --> 00:06:33.800
honestly. I mean, this is
my fault. I don't know why,

88
00:06:34.199 --> 00:06:38.800
because I thought. I thought that
Vice may An event this year was

89
00:06:38.839 --> 00:06:41.360
going to be starting at eleven o'clock
every day, So I said, you'd

90
00:06:41.399 --> 00:06:43.920
have been on the earliest ago,
Well it should be setting. It wasn't

91
00:06:43.920 --> 00:06:46.959
that what they did last year?
Yes? And yeah before that before that

92
00:06:46.199 --> 00:06:49.639
changed before and they changed it to
noon. So when we made this appointment

93
00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:51.720
a couple of weeks ago, I
was like, yeah, whatever, no

94
00:06:51.759 --> 00:06:56.399
big deal. And then you know
we're stuck because I'm stuck because you can't

95
00:06:56.439 --> 00:06:59.439
move it around. There was wasn't
any free slots whatever, so we're just

96
00:06:59.480 --> 00:07:02.399
stuck with it. So because of
that the noon start. We play a

97
00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:05.120
little bit later, so I'm getting
less sleep. I mean, I was

98
00:07:05.160 --> 00:07:08.439
so tired this morning. I honestly
thought I was going to crash my car.

99
00:07:08.519 --> 00:07:11.360
I was so tired, Like it
was like I was. It was

100
00:07:11.439 --> 00:07:14.199
driving with the windows down type of
day because I needed the wind to hit

101
00:07:14.199 --> 00:07:17.079
me in the face to keep me
up at Yeah, but I didn't have

102
00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:19.399
my coffee right away because I woke
up late. I was going to be

103
00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:21.519
late to the doctor's appointment, so
I didn't get the coffee right away.

104
00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:25.040
I wait until afterwards. It was. It was a whole thing. But

105
00:07:25.120 --> 00:07:29.079
we made it through. And here
we are. Let's go as always like

152
00:10:18.559 --> 00:10:24.799
hundred and forty nine to end the
day. Zachary Hall is the chip leader,

153
00:10:24.960 --> 00:10:31.200
leading the way with sixteen point three
million. Brian obergon I hope I

154
00:10:31.240 --> 00:10:39.080
said that correctly, thirteen point seven
million, Leron Batito eleven point eight five

155
00:10:39.159 --> 00:10:45.279
million, and Andrew Home eleven point
eight million. After the day was all

156
00:10:45.320 --> 00:10:50.159
said and done, Tim spoke was
Zachary Hall I did a school teacher.

157
00:10:50.759 --> 00:10:54.039
Well, look, we didn't know
much about him with his multiple handed mubs

158
00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:58.000
couldn't really identify him. I was
told that his friend was on the Riley's

159
00:10:58.000 --> 00:11:03.320
friend was Davis Stefanski, who I
think finished at least had a final movie

160
00:11:03.320 --> 00:11:07.600
finals. Yeah, he's had some
deep runs in the man who actually was

161
00:11:07.759 --> 00:11:11.360
in a scooter because he tore his
achilles playing basketball. So I hope you

162
00:11:11.360 --> 00:11:13.600
get better, David but he told
me, yeah, school teacher that he

163
00:11:13.639 --> 00:11:18.720
plays ten twenty five back in Springfield. I don't know where that was.

164
00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:20.919
School is he teacher? I don't
know, but he might. He's either

165
00:11:22.679 --> 00:11:24.759
yeah good, really good school or
a really good poker player. But Springfield

166
00:11:24.759 --> 00:11:28.519
and he leaves. You know,
what is it Connecticut? Is that in

167
00:11:28.519 --> 00:11:31.240
Connecticut? Springfield? Springfield, Mass? Yeah? I was okay? Wherever

168
00:11:31.240 --> 00:11:33.759
that it's a Springfield, Mass Okay, So I don't know if there's Springfield

169
00:11:33.799 --> 00:11:35.919
connectd I know there's a Springfield.
Yeah, I think it's that one.

170
00:11:35.960 --> 00:11:39.840
So he plays there. Gave me
a little bit of information. Mid interview,

171
00:11:39.840 --> 00:11:41.960
he tried to order a beer,
so I paused the interview, let

172
00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:46.080
him order his beer, let him
pay. But yeah, Chip leaders,

173
00:11:46.120 --> 00:11:48.919
Zachary Hall, I'm here with I
think the Chip leaders, Zachary Hall.

174
00:11:50.519 --> 00:11:52.840
I was chatting with your friend Dave
Sefanski on the rail. He told me

175
00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:56.159
a little bit about you school teacher
play cash games with him back at home.

176
00:11:56.759 --> 00:11:58.960
But today you saw the two point
six million and now we have sixteen

177
00:12:00.120 --> 00:12:01.960
point three. He got a clothe
saying what happened today? Yeah, it

178
00:12:03.000 --> 00:12:05.159
was a great day. Um.
All through this tournament, I've been blessed

179
00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:11.519
with awesome tables that are just um, not afraid to play pots, and

180
00:12:11.600 --> 00:12:13.159
that's I feel like what you need. I wasn't afraid to play pots,

181
00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:16.399
and I made a lot of good
five card hands. I made a lot

182
00:12:16.399 --> 00:12:20.639
of flushes, less straits a vote
or two. Um, and you know,

183
00:12:20.840 --> 00:12:24.360
no, no, no coolers.
Um, yeah, it's a good

184
00:12:24.440 --> 00:12:28.840
day. I believe this is your
second main event of any expectations when you

185
00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:31.440
were coming into this at all,
like you know, I have to perform

186
00:12:31.480 --> 00:12:33.679
so on why no, really,
it was a terrible summer, so I

187
00:12:33.720 --> 00:12:37.639
wanted to cash. Last year,
I made it to day three and bluffed

188
00:12:37.639 --> 00:12:39.519
off all my chips. Um,
so I kind of at least wanted to

189
00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:45.159
make the money. Um, but
no, this is uh exceeded all my

190
00:12:45.240 --> 00:12:48.600
expectations. You know, I've been
above average from the first hand of the

191
00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:54.799
tournament until I'll take a beer,
I've been above average from the first hand

192
00:12:54.799 --> 00:12:58.559
of the tournament until now. And
um yeah, that's you know, more

193
00:12:58.559 --> 00:13:01.480
than I could hope for. So
chip later heading in today six Yeah,

194
00:13:01.759 --> 00:13:05.840
there's about one hundred and fifty players
left. Now, what do you feel

195
00:13:05.879 --> 00:13:11.159
like the expectations you're gonna set on
yourself heading into the rest of the tournament.

196
00:13:11.600 --> 00:13:16.080
Oh, no expectations. I mean, you know, still a card

197
00:13:16.080 --> 00:13:22.120
game where luck matters a lot.
I'm just gonna play my best and not

198
00:13:22.399 --> 00:13:28.480
be entitled, not be entitled shooting
for the final table though we'll see.

199
00:13:28.279 --> 00:13:31.240
I don't know. It seems like
he's a got a decent head on his

200
00:13:31.279 --> 00:13:35.440
shoulders to make a run in this
thing. What do you think you think

201
00:13:35.440 --> 00:13:37.480
he's gonna You think he's gonna blow
up the stack, or you think he's

202
00:13:37.480 --> 00:13:41.080
gonna make a deep run. I
would lean too deep run. You know.

203
00:13:41.120 --> 00:13:43.879
He discussed how you know a bus
at Day three last year hasn't had

204
00:13:43.919 --> 00:13:48.720
a good summer. Today's side with
two point six a million everything when his

205
00:13:48.799 --> 00:13:52.120
way finished with sixteen point three.
So he's running a little bit of a

206
00:13:52.200 --> 00:13:54.919
heater. But he seemed like he
was just you know, taking one step

207
00:13:54.919 --> 00:13:58.879
it at a time, and I
think that helps when there's you know,

208
00:13:58.159 --> 00:14:01.600
hundred and four eight players between you
and twelve point one million and a five

209
00:14:01.679 --> 00:14:11.399
hundred thousand dollars bracelet um you lovest
to the end of time it so I

210
00:14:11.399 --> 00:14:16.679
would predict that I'll leaned to him
making a deep run. Sorry, good

211
00:14:16.759 --> 00:14:22.960
Luck, Zachary Hall, okay um
As. I mentioned those other chip leaders,

212
00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:26.759
but we have some other notables,
some other players you know, of

213
00:14:26.799 --> 00:14:31.279
course, are out there. There's
two females remaining, ye es Stell Couet

214
00:14:31.960 --> 00:14:35.759
probably butchered that last name. I'm
sorry, Estell. And then Nikita Luther

215
00:14:35.919 --> 00:14:39.240
Nikita we had on the podcast yesterday. She's still in she's making a run.

216
00:14:39.240 --> 00:14:43.039
How many chips did Nikita bag up? Obviously it's not the chip counts.

217
00:14:43.080 --> 00:14:45.960
I mean why why why would it
be? I mean there's you know,

218
00:14:46.240 --> 00:14:48.720
there's only one hundred and forty nine
people left in the man event.

219
00:14:48.759 --> 00:14:50.120
Why would you ever get those chip
counts? Those two are still left.

220
00:14:50.240 --> 00:14:54.399
You have Ryan Tausuk is out there, Maurice Hawkins is out there. I

221
00:14:54.519 --> 00:14:58.960
meant Pikija is out there. Who
bagged up a healthy, pretty healthy stack?

222
00:14:58.000 --> 00:15:01.440
I think um Ludovic Gaelic he is
also out there. Tobey lewis,

223
00:15:01.879 --> 00:15:05.440
yes, battling out there. Daniel
Weinman is also out there, sam Stein,

224
00:15:05.960 --> 00:15:11.799
Mark Telscher, Alec Terrelli. And
then we have Tony Dunst. And

225
00:15:11.879 --> 00:15:15.080
Tony is someone that I spoke to
at the end of the day. Tony

226
00:15:15.080 --> 00:15:18.279
He's always a you know, a
nice treat to talk to, not bashful

227
00:15:18.360 --> 00:15:20.480
at all. He's you know,
he's talkative. He's got a personality.

228
00:15:20.840 --> 00:15:24.039
You know. It helps that when
you're a professional commentator, that's a you

229
00:15:24.039 --> 00:15:28.559
can always find words. Tony had
a great day, bagged up more than

230
00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:31.919
eight million in chips. That's pretty
good, Tony do him pretty well.

231
00:15:31.559 --> 00:15:35.519
And I spoke with him after he
put those chips in his bag. All

232
00:15:35.559 --> 00:15:39.480
right, Tony Dunst end of day
five bagged up more than eight million chips,

233
00:15:39.639 --> 00:15:43.919
pretty hefty stack. How did the
day go for you? As good

234
00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:46.000
as you can imagine a day of
poker going? And he just came in,

235
00:15:46.279 --> 00:15:50.120
started hitting hands, had a guy
on my left. She just wanted

236
00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:54.840
to play pots against me. And
then when I hit about two million mark,

237
00:15:54.879 --> 00:15:56.879
I played that crazy pot against John
Rasoner Variety ass to kings in a

238
00:15:56.919 --> 00:16:00.600
four beat pott and got the full
double up to four. Won a big

239
00:16:00.639 --> 00:16:04.360
pot with Queen shortly after that pushed
me about five. I felt like one

240
00:16:04.360 --> 00:16:07.399
of those days where you just you
always have the goods your hand holds up.

241
00:16:08.120 --> 00:16:11.639
I made numerous flushes and you kind
of got paid off like just an

242
00:16:11.799 --> 00:16:15.720
incredible day of hanging cards. I
follow you on social media, so I

243
00:16:15.879 --> 00:16:18.559
know that the early days it seemed
like you had to practice a lot of

244
00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:22.639
patients. This day seems like it, you know, a nice contrast to

245
00:16:22.720 --> 00:16:26.480
what you had to do with at
the beginning. At least that's exactly right.

246
00:16:26.519 --> 00:16:27.840
The early days were pretty slow.
On day two where I was down

247
00:16:27.840 --> 00:16:33.360
to eight big blinds and I was
really short for most of the day,

248
00:16:33.799 --> 00:16:37.279
and very late in day two I
hit a rush, and it's It's mostly

249
00:16:37.320 --> 00:16:41.000
been a rush since, but nothing
has been anything like today. This was

250
00:16:41.039 --> 00:16:45.480
pretty nuts last time you cashed on
the WSP main event twenty ten, so

251
00:16:45.519 --> 00:16:49.879
it's been a while. What's changed
since then? The World Series in the

252
00:16:49.919 --> 00:16:53.679
poker environment, of course has changed
the ton that was still prior to Black

253
00:16:53.720 --> 00:16:59.120
Friday, so a completely different vibe. The type of players you encounter in

254
00:16:59.159 --> 00:17:03.159
the main events, especially deep,
I think has both changed and evolved.

255
00:17:03.720 --> 00:17:06.920
We see a lot of very talented
players. Then you get down to this

256
00:17:06.960 --> 00:17:10.960
stage of the tournament, and I
like to think that I've improved as a

257
00:17:10.960 --> 00:17:14.920
player and I'm in a much better
position to take advantage of this opportunity than

258
00:17:14.960 --> 00:17:17.079
I was in twenty ten. Yeah, I was gonna say, you know,

259
00:17:17.160 --> 00:17:19.440
you've You've always been someone who's worked
on your game, really much more

260
00:17:19.440 --> 00:17:22.200
so as of late rules. That
feel good to kind of have that all

261
00:17:22.200 --> 00:17:26.279
come together now in the biggest term
in the world. Absolutely, And it

262
00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:27.799
does feel like so many of the
things that I've practiced, and so many

263
00:17:27.799 --> 00:17:33.839
of the things that I had as
a pitfall earlier, I haven't had the

264
00:17:33.880 --> 00:17:36.920
same mistakes this time around. That's
a really good feeling to kind of see

265
00:17:36.920 --> 00:17:40.519
the work and research and practice payoff
in the moment and to be able to

266
00:17:40.559 --> 00:17:45.880
play with sort of confidence and certainty
and not be in these big positions second

267
00:17:45.920 --> 00:17:51.279
guessing yourself and maybe making a mistake
as a result. You're obviously WPT commentator

268
00:17:51.680 --> 00:17:53.000
must feel great though, to always
be on the other side of the film

269
00:17:53.039 --> 00:18:00.079
making runs too. I love the
mix of playing for a living and in

270
00:18:00.079 --> 00:18:02.799
the commentary for the WBT, and
when you get deep into one, it

271
00:18:02.839 --> 00:18:06.400
can always feel like the grass is
greener on the other side, and right

272
00:18:06.400 --> 00:18:10.680
now though, on the felt it
feels pretty damn green. And last question,

273
00:18:10.680 --> 00:18:14.359
I always ask everyone, are you
having fun? Absolutely, I'm having

274
00:18:14.400 --> 00:18:17.480
so much fun. I'm on the
edge of my seat I can't believe I'm

275
00:18:17.480 --> 00:18:21.079
really here, and uh, you
know, no matter what happens, like

276
00:18:21.119 --> 00:18:22.759
you have to try and enjoy this
because I don't care how good you are

277
00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:26.440
many times to play the main like
if you're not going to make day five,

278
00:18:26.480 --> 00:18:29.200
Day six, very many times in
your entire lifetime, your entire career,

279
00:18:29.599 --> 00:18:33.799
so you've got to try and enjoy
bagging up again more than eight million.

280
00:18:33.920 --> 00:18:38.880
Last time he cashed was twenty ten
in the main event Been Forever.

281
00:18:40.559 --> 00:18:45.240
Jonathan Duhamel won that year. Who
did Jonathan do ahamil beating heads up play?

282
00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:51.400
Are you really thinking this long?
Is this is a serious Christional?

283
00:18:51.799 --> 00:18:55.599
Yes, John Racer, I have
a mental booze still left in the tournament

284
00:18:55.759 --> 00:18:59.160
this year, John Racer, There
you go. See That's what I was

285
00:18:59.160 --> 00:19:06.720
trying to get out, a right, are you killing absolutely as a statman

286
00:19:07.240 --> 00:19:11.680
and he's just doing that sort of
stuff. Um. A couple of notable

287
00:19:11.720 --> 00:19:17.359
eliminations here. We had Chris Moneymaker
and Joe Hasham, two former champions of

288
00:19:17.400 --> 00:19:19.599
the World Series of Poker Main Event. Chris Moneymaker two thousand and three,

289
00:19:19.759 --> 00:19:23.160
that's when he won it. Joe
Hasham won it in two thousand and five

290
00:19:23.680 --> 00:19:29.000
and guess what they busted in back
to back spots this year. First it

291
00:19:29.079 --> 00:19:33.000
was Moneymaker going out in four hundred
and fourth place. Joe Hasham followed right

292
00:19:33.039 --> 00:19:37.039
out the door in four hundred and
third place. Those are the last two

293
00:19:37.319 --> 00:19:41.559
former champions of the divsp main events. So everyone left. We're gonna have

294
00:19:41.599 --> 00:19:45.480
a brand new winner, brand new
winner in this event. So that's I

295
00:19:45.519 --> 00:19:48.000
mean, not that you know,
it's ever expected that somebody's gonna win it

296
00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:49.119
twice. But we did have some
deep runs but from some champs. So

297
00:19:49.200 --> 00:19:52.160
yeah. Um, we also lost
Jason Coon today. He was out.

298
00:19:52.200 --> 00:19:56.559
I think on the first hand,
Um really it was. It was the

299
00:19:56.559 --> 00:20:00.079
first hand or one of the very
first hands of the day, Um King

300
00:20:00.319 --> 00:20:04.000
verse tens and he actually flopped a
king if you can believe it. I

301
00:20:04.039 --> 00:20:10.640
believe it came Ace King. I
mean I can't remember Ace King queen.

302
00:20:10.759 --> 00:20:12.640
And then Jack on the river run, I think that's what it was.

303
00:20:12.640 --> 00:20:18.000
The thing, I yes, yes
it was um so yeah, he fought

304
00:20:18.000 --> 00:20:19.240
to set his opponent end up river
in a straight The money went in pre

305
00:20:19.400 --> 00:20:26.279
flop, so Jason Coone lost.
Darius Sammartino busted, Chris Brewer out,

306
00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:30.680
Phil Hue out now Farrell out,
James Opts out, Chance Corneth out Chance

307
00:20:30.759 --> 00:20:34.039
Corneth. I mean this hand was
out of control. This is one of

308
00:20:34.079 --> 00:20:41.079
the absolutely mega hands that we saw
today. You had Nick Rigby up on

309
00:20:41.119 --> 00:20:45.960
the feature table doing his thing,
blasting away active on. You know,

310
00:20:47.039 --> 00:20:51.680
eighty percent of hands he opens with
aces. Can you believe they gave Nick

311
00:20:51.759 --> 00:20:57.839
Rigby a chance? Corneth gets ace, King of Hearts three bets it's on.

312
00:20:57.960 --> 00:21:03.559
Nick Rigby now used to have a
boatload of chips a ton. I

313
00:21:03.599 --> 00:21:04.839
can't remember how many. I think
they might have had one hundred big blinds

314
00:21:04.880 --> 00:21:11.000
each. I'm pretty sure it was
one hundred big bins or like just Rigby

315
00:21:11.079 --> 00:21:15.759
had Corneth covered, and I think
Chance had like ninety five or one hundred

316
00:21:15.759 --> 00:21:22.519
big blinds. Rigby just decides to
rip it all in, which is like

317
00:21:22.640 --> 00:21:26.279
kind of crazy because then you're just
like, you know, Chances absolutely only

318
00:21:26.319 --> 00:21:27.359
calling if he has it. You
know, you're not even giving him a

319
00:21:27.440 --> 00:21:30.559
chance to possibly, you know,
do some sort of bluff or get some

320
00:21:30.680 --> 00:21:36.000
more money post slop or whatever.
Chance snaps them off. Obviously Chance has

321
00:21:36.000 --> 00:21:37.200
a hand as King of Hearts,
and here we go, two hundred big

322
00:21:37.200 --> 00:21:41.880
b lines in the middle board runs
out clean for rigby chance is dead on

323
00:21:41.920 --> 00:21:45.079
the turn and hello. I mean
that was just it was crazy. That

324
00:21:45.240 --> 00:21:48.720
was wild. So that was one
of the wild hands that we saw.

325
00:21:49.799 --> 00:21:56.440
You also had Nick Waghany busting Jason
Somerville, Richard Seymour busted out, Bill

326
00:21:56.559 --> 00:22:00.359
Klein went out. Bill Klein also
involved in a wild hand. It was

327
00:22:00.440 --> 00:22:04.599
Bill Klein with pocket kings. Who
was I believe the gentleman's name was Stuart

328
00:22:04.640 --> 00:22:07.920
Taylor. I know his last name
was Taylor. I hope I'm not getting

329
00:22:08.079 --> 00:22:11.599
wrong on the first name. Bill
Klein has kings, He raises Taylor,

330
00:22:12.079 --> 00:22:18.319
calls with aces. Then I can't
remember if the small blind called or not.

331
00:22:18.359 --> 00:22:22.799
But Ryan Brown was in the big
blind I believe, and he just

332
00:22:22.880 --> 00:22:26.319
moved all in with Ace Queen off
trying to get the folds. I think

333
00:22:26.319 --> 00:22:29.960
he moved all in for around forty
big blinds. Bill Klein obviously goes all

334
00:22:30.000 --> 00:22:33.720
in. Taylor right there to go
all in as well. Cards are on

335
00:22:33.759 --> 00:22:37.240
their backs, Kings, Aces,
Ace Queen. The flap is king high.

336
00:22:37.279 --> 00:22:42.519
It's like King xx right, and
Bill Klein takes the lead. Bill

337
00:22:42.559 --> 00:22:47.880
Klein has both of his opponents covered. So Bill Clein is now in the

338
00:22:47.960 --> 00:22:52.200
driversy to take these guys out turn
is a jack. Now it's like,

339
00:22:52.440 --> 00:22:57.000
oh my gosh, Ryan Brown has
a chance river boom ten there it is,

340
00:22:57.119 --> 00:23:00.839
and he busts or he yeah,
he bust Taylor and then he doubles

341
00:23:00.839 --> 00:23:07.200
through Bill Klein, which is just
in absolutely wildhand. I heard when that

342
00:23:07.279 --> 00:23:14.079
hand happened. Paris absolutely exploded when
that river card hit, which yeah,

343
00:23:14.119 --> 00:23:15.920
yeah, why wouldn't it. I
mean, that's just as as exciting as

344
00:23:15.920 --> 00:23:22.839
it comes that hand that that pot
um shot Brown up from about one million

345
00:23:22.880 --> 00:23:26.960
to over three million. He ended
up finishing the day with six point eight

346
00:23:26.079 --> 00:23:30.519
three million. Ryan Brown. UM
believe he plays high stakes cash plays also

347
00:23:30.559 --> 00:23:37.440
tournaments, but high stakes cash out
of out of Maryland. His girlfriend also

348
00:23:37.480 --> 00:23:40.319
went pretty deep in the event.
If you can look up where she finished,

349
00:23:40.519 --> 00:23:44.319
um sung lee but she goes by
Debbie. Um, she ran pretty

350
00:23:44.319 --> 00:23:47.599
deep in this event. I believe
she took a pretty bad beats. Um

351
00:23:47.680 --> 00:23:51.640
got knocked out by a belief seven. Yeah, so she went very deep.

352
00:23:51.839 --> 00:23:53.960
But yeah, Ryan Brown finished up
six point eight three million. Ryan

353
00:23:55.000 --> 00:23:57.880
Brown. If you're a listener of
this podcast, he took by him a

354
00:23:57.880 --> 00:24:03.200
lot one of Donnie Peters's ones to
watch entering the twenty twenty three World Series

355
00:24:03.200 --> 00:24:07.559
of Poker, and here he is. Here he is six point eight three

356
00:24:07.640 --> 00:24:10.720
million heading to Day six of the
World Series of Poker main event. That's

357
00:24:10.720 --> 00:24:11.880
a pretty good chip set. Mean, that's a pretty good call by me.

358
00:24:12.039 --> 00:24:15.200
Right, well, it's a pretty
good call. Let's not get ahead

359
00:24:15.200 --> 00:24:18.319
of ourselves yet. What do you
mean I pick the guy's going to day

360
00:24:18.319 --> 00:24:22.480
six again? Sixty K. I'm
just saying that's a pretty good call.

361
00:24:22.559 --> 00:24:26.519
Man, that's a pretty pretty good
call. That's what we If we were

362
00:24:26.599 --> 00:24:33.440
Daniel, we would insert the curb
your enthusiasm pretty deep Perperta. Yes,

363
00:24:33.839 --> 00:24:37.400
you know what I'm talking about,
man. I love curb your enthusiasm.

364
00:24:37.440 --> 00:24:38.680
I love Seinfeld, I love curb. But think they're great, all right.

365
00:24:38.720 --> 00:24:41.880
Chris Fitch busted out Jeff Gross,
We lost him, Froz Jaca out,

366
00:24:41.960 --> 00:24:47.200
Jesse Loanis out, Nick Marchington out, Mickey due out. Mickey Dueck

367
00:24:47.279 --> 00:24:49.119
finished in third place last year.
Good run for him this year, finishing

368
00:24:49.160 --> 00:24:52.920
in one hundred and seventy eighth place. Davide Katai one hundred and seventieth place.

369
00:24:53.279 --> 00:24:56.480
We lost Andrew Nemi. He ran
pocket sevens in a pocket tens to

370
00:24:56.519 --> 00:25:00.680
bust in one hundred and sixty fourth
place, and and we also lost Matt

371
00:25:00.720 --> 00:25:06.039
Salzburg in one hundred and sixtieth place. Tim, what's the chop value six

372
00:25:06.160 --> 00:25:08.079
hundred and twenty six thousand, eight
hundred and forty five dollars? Chop it

373
00:25:08.079 --> 00:25:11.880
off, guys, chop. I
mean that's a good Yesterday you were like,

374
00:25:11.880 --> 00:25:15.200
it's around two hundred or whatever you
said. I mean, this is

375
00:25:15.240 --> 00:25:18.440
like, this is he's insane.
Yesterday's point it was, you know,

376
00:25:18.480 --> 00:25:23.039
something like ten x the current cash. Today it's you know, basically the

377
00:25:23.079 --> 00:25:26.119
same thing ten x. I mean
this is I mean, it's hard to

378
00:25:26.119 --> 00:25:30.759
turn down ten x. What you
guarantee to be honest? Three four x

379
00:25:30.799 --> 00:25:33.920
maybe you gamble, but ten x. Just let's just wrap it up.

380
00:25:33.920 --> 00:25:36.759
Pick center in twenty six. They
can jump in day one of the six.

381
00:25:37.759 --> 00:25:40.960
No one cares about them on chop
Let's go home. Um, I

382
00:25:40.960 --> 00:25:44.680
mean, just absolutely nuts. Who
else we got left in the field?

383
00:25:45.039 --> 00:25:48.680
Nice Silva, he backs, yes. Matthew Watman, Yes, a real

384
00:25:48.720 --> 00:25:55.559
buckie. John Duffy, he's out
there, just um. Christian Harder Chris

385
00:25:55.640 --> 00:25:59.880
Lee aka Genius twenty eight is out
there pinglu Is still in the face,

386
00:26:00.119 --> 00:26:03.160
was still in Yeah. Really,
I have not seen anymore John Troha.

387
00:26:03.359 --> 00:26:06.079
Somehow you got to play with two
cards even though I only thought he played

388
00:26:06.079 --> 00:26:08.480
with a few times. And the
deals like that doesn't work. He's sorry,

389
00:26:08.759 --> 00:26:11.680
Sorry, No, I think that
that's binding though, isn't It doesn't

390
00:26:11.799 --> 00:26:17.079
count as a bet. That's silly. Why doesn't the count as the bet?

391
00:26:17.079 --> 00:26:18.920
We're not playing file limit? Were
playing not a limit? Yea.

392
00:26:18.920 --> 00:26:22.079
But if you say I want to
bet the pot doesn't matter, that con't

393
00:26:22.200 --> 00:26:23.119
count. You know, to count
the party and not limit hold them.

394
00:26:23.240 --> 00:26:29.839
You can only spread the pot.
Why it's a rule I want to bet.

395
00:26:30.200 --> 00:26:32.480
There are a lot of really dumb
rules. If you say I want

396
00:26:32.480 --> 00:26:34.839
to bet the pot, the dealer
can only spread the people I want to.

397
00:26:34.880 --> 00:26:38.119
I'm gonna get off in the tangent
talk about what I think is arguably

398
00:26:38.119 --> 00:26:42.000
the dumbest rule in poker. So
you're at the table right, we're playing.

399
00:26:42.319 --> 00:26:45.039
But the buttons in C one we
deal the hand, it finishes,

400
00:26:45.119 --> 00:26:48.839
okay, dealer deals the next hand, button remains in CE one does not

401
00:26:48.960 --> 00:26:52.640
move. Okay, okay, it
goes first. Two people fold, I

402
00:26:52.880 --> 00:26:57.880
raise person behind me, folds.
Yes, somebody's like, wait, the

403
00:26:57.920 --> 00:27:03.119
button didn't move. Now they call
this significant action and you have to play

404
00:27:03.160 --> 00:27:06.359
the hand out? Why on earth
you have to play the hand out?

405
00:27:06.440 --> 00:27:11.759
The hand is not correct. It's
it's literally not correct. Just redo everything,

406
00:27:11.920 --> 00:27:14.960
take the cards back. Yes,
someone pulls their beat back. End

407
00:27:14.960 --> 00:27:18.480
of story. I understand that if
if if a hand was not supposed to

408
00:27:18.519 --> 00:27:23.079
happen, a situation was not supposed
to happen, and you can easily just

409
00:27:23.440 --> 00:27:26.440
end the hand and like just give
people the chips back that everyone put into

410
00:27:26.480 --> 00:27:30.359
the possibly put into the pot,
then just do that. Why would you

411
00:27:30.400 --> 00:27:33.279
play a hand that is not correct? What is the point of doing that?

412
00:27:33.799 --> 00:27:34.960
Like, is there's some sort of
angle that you can do because you're

413
00:27:34.960 --> 00:27:37.480
making somebody pay the big blind twice, pay the small blind twice, et

414
00:27:37.519 --> 00:27:41.079
cetera, like that, it just
seems so silly to do that. There

415
00:27:41.160 --> 00:27:45.240
is probably some kind of angle that
you can do. The thing. The

416
00:27:45.400 --> 00:27:49.200
argument against, you know, just
redoing the hand is it is on the

417
00:27:49.240 --> 00:27:52.640
big blind, It is on the
small blind to you know, be aware,

418
00:27:53.000 --> 00:27:56.519
it's it's a vision. It's also
on the deal. If you're doing

419
00:27:56.599 --> 00:28:02.079
a job and moving the running the
game they say in Folker, they say,

420
00:28:02.119 --> 00:28:04.880
God speak right when you seek,
Like, so you, as the

421
00:28:04.920 --> 00:28:07.599
big blind, have played the big
blind when the dealer goes put out your

422
00:28:07.640 --> 00:28:11.039
big blinding, you know, I
was just big bine and then you adjust

423
00:28:11.119 --> 00:28:15.200
the button. Now it's also this
is a ridiculous rule, and it's it's

424
00:28:15.240 --> 00:28:18.160
an absolutely ridiculous rule. It's were
you the big blind when this happened?

425
00:28:18.400 --> 00:28:19.519
That it was not the big bine? I was the person who raised so

426
00:28:21.240 --> 00:28:25.240
blinds And Annie's yeah, but that
doesn't matter. What does that matter?

427
00:28:25.519 --> 00:28:26.599
I could have raised the next hand. I mean, I don't know,

428
00:28:27.160 --> 00:28:30.599
like this would be hard to do, but you could just play this hand

429
00:28:32.079 --> 00:28:36.119
and then when you come back around, he doesn't play that big blind just

430
00:28:36.160 --> 00:28:40.720
skips. That's these people are complicated. Yes, they can't even figure out

431
00:28:40.759 --> 00:28:42.880
that you, like, you shouldn't
play that handy. There's no way they

432
00:28:42.880 --> 00:28:47.519
could figure out that next rotation.
Okay, so just let's just take the

433
00:28:47.559 --> 00:28:51.599
one that I don't understand. What's
the point? I mean, it just

434
00:28:51.640 --> 00:28:56.319
makes it seems silly to me.
Anyway. Chop value is six hundred and

435
00:28:56.400 --> 00:28:59.599
twenty six thousand dollars in the event, if you ever want to chop.

436
00:29:00.680 --> 00:29:03.319
I do wish they would put it
on the screen as a funny joke.

437
00:29:03.400 --> 00:29:06.720
How much are they actually guaranteed?
I think it's sixty seven thousand, sixty

438
00:29:06.759 --> 00:29:11.119
seven seven. I also want to
want to hit on Sundaiada DeVore, who's

439
00:29:11.160 --> 00:29:15.720
having a great year. He took
second in the Return at the Borgata way

440
00:29:15.720 --> 00:29:18.559
back in January. That was a
fifty three hundred dollars buying. He won

441
00:29:18.559 --> 00:29:22.440
over nine hundred thousand dollars for that
finish, and then he finished I believe

442
00:29:22.440 --> 00:29:26.680
it was fifth place in the bet
MGM Poker Championship that was at Aria slashed

443
00:29:26.680 --> 00:29:30.519
the Poker gro Studio, and I
think he took around one hundred forty one

444
00:29:30.559 --> 00:29:33.880
hundred and forty five thousand dollars for
that finish. So really good year for

445
00:29:33.000 --> 00:29:37.359
Sundaiada Davore. And now he's among
the final one hundred and forty nine in

446
00:29:37.400 --> 00:29:49.119
the World Series of Poker main event, so very good on him. It's

447
00:29:49.279 --> 00:29:52.200
very early, right, it's huney
one hundred and forty nine players left.

448
00:29:52.200 --> 00:29:56.920
Manner backed up seven point six minute. I want us to say who we

449
00:29:56.960 --> 00:30:00.319
would like to win right now with
con Se Nikita okay no that I'm not

450
00:30:00.319 --> 00:30:03.519
playing this because that's kind of too
obvious. Female playing the game. Come

451
00:30:03.559 --> 00:30:07.240
on, just play the game.
I'm not playing the game. It's Nikita.

452
00:30:07.279 --> 00:30:10.079
The answer is, I know it
is, but let's let's pretend she's

453
00:30:10.079 --> 00:30:12.079
out now, Tim. I want
to be clear, Tim is asking this

454
00:30:12.160 --> 00:30:18.039
question not from necessarily a rooting interest
for our own personal feelings. He's asking

455
00:30:18.079 --> 00:30:23.240
it from the point of view of
like, what's the best for poker?

456
00:30:23.279 --> 00:30:26.799
They always say, like, you
know what's good for poker? What's not

457
00:30:26.839 --> 00:30:29.559
good for poker? You know who
winning would be the best for poker.

458
00:30:29.880 --> 00:30:33.519
I think it's Nikita luther by it
a country mile. Well, we're forgetting

459
00:30:34.279 --> 00:30:41.920
the one who who was rivaling Nikita
Lutha for the growth, and that's it's

460
00:30:41.000 --> 00:30:48.599
Massada. Well, I think it's
probably I think it's Nikita by a by

461
00:30:48.640 --> 00:30:55.319
a wide gap. And then I
would say, um, Massado Yoko Sawa

462
00:30:55.359 --> 00:31:00.599
who bagged up six point seven four
million. I think he's I think he's

463
00:31:00.640 --> 00:31:03.880
probably second, yes, And then
I think Nick Rigby's third. Oh,

464
00:31:03.960 --> 00:31:08.359
that's a good one. I mean
Nick Rigby is just like Nick Rigby by

465
00:31:08.359 --> 00:31:12.880
the way back. Nick Rigby the
Nick Rigby Show today was out of control.

466
00:31:12.920 --> 00:31:17.279
It was rib roller coaster. I
mean it was just wild. He

467
00:31:17.319 --> 00:31:19.440
had he had one point five million, he had over seven million, he

468
00:31:19.519 --> 00:31:22.480
had four and a half, he
was back up to six and a half,

469
00:31:22.519 --> 00:31:23.920
he was all over the plays.
He finishes the day with one point

470
00:31:23.960 --> 00:31:27.039
six five million. I mean he
could be out tomorrow on the first level,

471
00:31:27.319 --> 00:31:30.640
or he could have ten million by
dinner break. Yeah, like it's

472
00:31:30.680 --> 00:31:34.839
just wild. So I would highly
encourage people to tune in tomorrow to Poker

473
00:31:34.839 --> 00:31:40.079
Grow or tune in on I should
say on Wednesday, July twelfth, four

474
00:31:40.160 --> 00:31:42.920
day six coverage starts at one pm. It'll continue all day long. I

475
00:31:42.920 --> 00:31:47.599
think it's like eleven hours of coverage
or ten hours of cover. So you

476
00:31:47.640 --> 00:31:49.200
know, you guys got nothing else
better to do. I know, come

477
00:31:49.200 --> 00:31:52.839
on, you don't have lives like
us, So let's go. Nick Rigby,

478
00:31:52.960 --> 00:31:56.640
I think is probably up there.
You know, there might be some

479
00:31:56.680 --> 00:32:00.279
other stories within here that we don't
know. Yeah, I think with Nikita

480
00:32:00.359 --> 00:32:06.160
Luther one female. We haven't had
a female make the Final table since Barbara

481
00:32:06.240 --> 00:32:10.680
Nwright in nineteen ninety five, which
seems like one thousand years ago. It

482
00:32:10.720 --> 00:32:14.200
was a long time ago, of
course, but it seems like forever ago,

483
00:32:15.200 --> 00:32:16.920
we have had some close calls,
but ultimately nothing has come through.

484
00:32:17.839 --> 00:32:22.160
Most notably Galbowman Elizabeth hill A missed
out on the final table. I think

485
00:32:22.160 --> 00:32:24.559
it was tenth and eleventh for them, or eleventh and twelve something like that,

486
00:32:24.880 --> 00:32:29.599
but yeah, that was the closest
we've come. She's also Indian,

487
00:32:29.880 --> 00:32:37.160
so the Indian poker population which is
I would say, very eager and also

488
00:32:37.240 --> 00:32:40.039
a little bit rabid, you know, just just like ready to go,

489
00:32:40.160 --> 00:32:45.000
chomping at the bit to get out
there. So if one of their own

490
00:32:45.359 --> 00:32:47.880
was to go on to win the
not only the biggest tournament in the world,

491
00:32:49.200 --> 00:32:52.960
but the biggest ever biggest tournament in
the world, would be absolutely incredible.

492
00:32:53.079 --> 00:32:58.319
She's a really big name on the
Indian poker front, so we know

493
00:32:58.359 --> 00:33:02.720
how big India is as a country
billion one point six billion or whatever it

494
00:33:02.759 --> 00:33:07.519
is. People like, it's just
it's absolutely astronomically massive. So that would

495
00:33:07.519 --> 00:33:10.480
just be super cool. You know, you check off the female box,

496
00:33:10.880 --> 00:33:15.720
you get a country that is,
you know, ripe for a poker boom

497
00:33:16.200 --> 00:33:20.160
in a lot of ways. You
get that. I think it would be

498
00:33:20.200 --> 00:33:22.519
great. And if you listen to
her yesterday, you know, like I

499
00:33:22.599 --> 00:33:25.880
think you probably have a good sense
that she'd be a really good champion,

500
00:33:25.920 --> 00:33:30.240
really good ambassador for the game.
She had about she had over nine million

501
00:33:30.319 --> 00:33:32.200
chips today, but she lost a
really big one late to John Raisner,

502
00:33:34.039 --> 00:33:36.720
so there was that. So um, she'll have to kind of build back

503
00:33:36.799 --> 00:33:39.920
up tomorrow. But you know,
I think she can probably do it.

504
00:33:39.960 --> 00:33:43.839
I mean, she's capable, so
we'll see if some things break her way.

505
00:33:43.880 --> 00:33:47.319
She backed up looks like four point
three million on the day. Then

506
00:33:47.359 --> 00:33:55.039
I have Massado Yoko Sawa, a
Japanese poker player slash vlogger who is like

507
00:33:55.359 --> 00:34:00.279
every time we like tweet about him, it's just craziness. The fan bases

508
00:34:00.440 --> 00:34:05.440
like they should just go hand for
hamm on Massada. They love We need

509
00:34:05.440 --> 00:34:07.920
to put him right up there on
that fat love Missado. I mean,

510
00:34:07.960 --> 00:34:14.639
and he's like he's like a child. He has just an absolutely booming sunlight

511
00:34:14.719 --> 00:34:17.760
of a personality. Super happy.
He blew me a kiss today in the

512
00:34:17.800 --> 00:34:22.159
town. He saw me. I
haven't seen him all day, you know.

513
00:34:22.360 --> 00:34:24.000
I don't always go out into the
field, kind of stay away when

514
00:34:24.000 --> 00:34:27.119
it gets to Steeve. Sometimes they'll
go out there and kind of check on

515
00:34:27.159 --> 00:34:30.079
things. Get to lay at the
land all that sort of stuff. Um,

516
00:34:30.199 --> 00:34:32.119
I walked out there. He looks
up, he sees me, huge

517
00:34:32.159 --> 00:34:37.239
smile, boom, blows me a
kiss. I'm like, okay, I

518
00:34:37.280 --> 00:34:38.679
mean whatever I'm in So I don't
love you, man. Let's go.

519
00:34:39.400 --> 00:34:45.360
Um and just with how how big
he is in the YouTube streets, how

520
00:34:45.360 --> 00:34:50.159
big he is with the Japanese poker
community, like that would be massive if

521
00:34:50.199 --> 00:34:52.840
he won. Yea. You know, I also think Nick Rigby is right

522
00:34:52.880 --> 00:34:58.480
up there. I mean Nick Rigby, he gives hope to every home game

523
00:34:58.559 --> 00:35:01.880
hero in the USA, gives me
a chance. Everyone, everyone that's you

524
00:35:01.920 --> 00:35:06.639
know, everyone that's rolling up to
their buddy's house on Tuesday night, seven

525
00:35:06.639 --> 00:35:13.159
pm in one hand, you know, in other hand, some deritos like

526
00:35:13.280 --> 00:35:17.719
that. That's like, that's the
Nick Rigby in this industry, in the

527
00:35:17.719 --> 00:35:21.079
game. Yeah, so that's the
Nick Griggby. You know, a guy

528
00:35:21.119 --> 00:35:23.320
who just loves to play poker,
plays eighty percent of the hands that are

529
00:35:23.360 --> 00:35:27.159
dealt to him, plays him in
ways that you'd probably look at him and

530
00:35:27.159 --> 00:35:30.199
be like, I would never do
that. That's bad. That's four yeah,

531
00:35:30.239 --> 00:35:32.679
four xteen, the seven twos free, I mean, you know,

532
00:35:32.800 --> 00:35:37.199
just crazy stuff. But he's got
good card since and I think a lot

533
00:35:37.199 --> 00:35:39.800
of people will look at it and
be like, if that guy can do

534
00:35:39.840 --> 00:35:43.119
it, I can do it.
You know, he just needs to bring

535
00:35:43.159 --> 00:35:45.679
back the bucket hat tomorrow he does
that. I think that was his mistake.

536
00:35:45.719 --> 00:35:49.519
Honestly, he had he had the
bucket hat and the Gucci shades.

537
00:35:49.920 --> 00:35:51.719
I have no idea if they were
a Gucci or not, but they look

538
00:35:51.840 --> 00:35:54.840
like Gucci shades. Yesterday, Um, he went away from it. Today

539
00:35:54.880 --> 00:36:00.519
he went with his baseball hat that
said Stork on it, um and then

540
00:36:00.599 --> 00:36:05.519
he had product glasses on. But
they looked like they looked a little bit

541
00:36:05.559 --> 00:36:08.679
different than the Gucci shades. They
are Prada, they are whites m but

542
00:36:08.800 --> 00:36:13.599
you know they didn't work today.
The Bible wasn't there yesterday he crushed.

543
00:36:13.679 --> 00:36:15.920
Today he went the other way.
He was up and down today, so

544
00:36:15.960 --> 00:36:20.840
he could have certainly crushed, but
he ultimately finished down from where he was.

545
00:36:20.920 --> 00:36:22.960
So, you know, I think
he's got to go back to the

546
00:36:22.960 --> 00:36:25.920
bucket hat and the Gucci shades.
You know, I'm all in on the

547
00:36:27.159 --> 00:36:30.559
bucket hat. Yeah, yeah,
And I think you know, I think

548
00:36:30.679 --> 00:36:32.960
Nick Griegby is great. You know, he gives hope to I guess the

549
00:36:34.000 --> 00:36:37.039
everyman poker player, the guy I
know his I know his Twitter handle is

550
00:36:37.079 --> 00:36:40.280
gto underscore diaper. That man does
not play gto. Okay, you know,

551
00:36:40.360 --> 00:36:45.880
he gives hope to all the regular
poker players out there that are playing

552
00:36:45.000 --> 00:36:47.559
nightly. He's playing these home games
and you know, going to the locals,

553
00:36:47.599 --> 00:36:50.679
you know, playing one two,
one three, noem and hold him

554
00:36:50.679 --> 00:36:52.440
all that sort of stuff. Those
are the Nick Griegby's of the world.

555
00:36:52.519 --> 00:36:54.960
Yeah, you know. And if
he can do it, you can do

556
00:36:55.000 --> 00:36:59.079
it if you save up ten k. That's my marketing pitch for Nick Rigby.

557
00:36:59.199 --> 00:37:02.519
Okay, So those are my three, my top three for the you

558
00:37:02.559 --> 00:37:07.639
know what's best for poker rankings?
Who do you got? I'm right there

559
00:37:07.679 --> 00:37:09.920
with you, to be honest,
you know that's right. Hot to argue

560
00:37:09.920 --> 00:37:15.039
with Nikita, hot to argue argue
against Masato Rigby. You could. It

561
00:37:15.079 --> 00:37:19.719
could go either way. I'm not
sure what it may do for will it

562
00:37:19.800 --> 00:37:22.280
really pull a new amount of players
into the into the mix. I'm not

563
00:37:22.360 --> 00:37:25.000
quite sure yet. You know,
like we said, it's stay five,

564
00:37:25.320 --> 00:37:30.119
there's several more days before the storylines
can develop. We may find something deep

565
00:37:30.159 --> 00:37:34.880
in this list of one hundred and
forty nine players that you know what actually

566
00:37:34.960 --> 00:37:37.760
might be. Who knows it could
be better than Nikita. Unlikely, but

567
00:37:37.079 --> 00:37:39.559
you just never know. Yeah,
I mean, and listen, we're not

568
00:37:39.599 --> 00:37:43.920
trying to slate the other players that
are still in UM. You know,

569
00:37:43.960 --> 00:37:46.800
we'll realize some more stories. We'll
see how this thing all plays out as

570
00:37:46.880 --> 00:37:51.000
we go, and we're looking for
some characters. That's what we're trying to

571
00:37:51.039 --> 00:37:53.679
do, trying to find find little
diamond in the rough. So we're so

572
00:37:53.920 --> 00:37:58.760
used to like being you know PGT
Bass and being in the studio with all

573
00:37:58.760 --> 00:38:01.360
these hi rollas, being a very
stoic poker player, you know, in

574
00:38:01.360 --> 00:38:06.239
front of us at all the tables, and it's it's refreshing to be here

575
00:38:06.280 --> 00:38:08.000
at the World Series, especially during
the main event, where the money is

576
00:38:08.039 --> 00:38:13.440
just as big as it is in
the studio, and we have these characters

577
00:38:13.440 --> 00:38:16.480
like Massado, We have people we
don't see it all throughout the year,

578
00:38:16.840 --> 00:38:21.519
you know, mixed with some really
good poker players, you know, Tony

579
00:38:21.599 --> 00:38:25.159
Dunce, Ryan Tassik, you know, Christian Harder like people we've known for

580
00:38:25.239 --> 00:38:29.440
many, many years. So it's
kind of it's great to see new face.

581
00:38:29.519 --> 00:38:32.199
It's great to see old faces and
you know, trying to find the

582
00:38:32.239 --> 00:38:37.239
next the next person to to cheer
for as an industry. And there's a

583
00:38:37.239 --> 00:38:40.639
little bit of a story within the
story brewing, and that is I would

584
00:38:40.639 --> 00:38:45.440
say a rivalry between Daniel Vampin and
Nicholas Rigby, because they got into it

585
00:38:45.920 --> 00:38:51.679
heading into the dinner break today.
So Rigby had been up and down all

586
00:38:51.760 --> 00:38:55.960
day, but he had been losing
a bunch of parts and kind of losing

587
00:38:55.960 --> 00:39:01.519
grip on everything in like the half
an hour or twenty minutes heading into when

588
00:39:01.559 --> 00:39:05.559
the dinner break was going to be. So a hand comes up where he

589
00:39:05.599 --> 00:39:09.639
played it against. I believe it
was Jacob Sacks who jams the river with

590
00:39:10.039 --> 00:39:15.599
a straight he had the wheel.
Nick Rigby's got ace seven high right,

591
00:39:15.679 --> 00:39:20.440
and he starts tanking hand tanking an
tanking. He's like, he's like five

592
00:39:20.559 --> 00:39:23.679
six minutes into the tank. And
Vampin, who I believe, if I

593
00:39:23.679 --> 00:39:29.039
remember correctly, was relatively new to
the table. He hadn't been there the

594
00:39:29.039 --> 00:39:31.599
whole day. He had moved there
relatively recently, I think, if I'm

595
00:39:31.599 --> 00:39:36.960
getting that correct. He calls the
clock, okay, so floor comes over.

596
00:39:37.079 --> 00:39:38.719
They say it was you know,
it's been enough time, So they

597
00:39:38.760 --> 00:39:43.159
issue the clock. You know,
the clock starts going down. Rigby folds

598
00:39:43.159 --> 00:39:46.880
his hand. But then I believe
it was Sacks who first said something.

599
00:39:47.000 --> 00:39:52.199
He said something to vamp In about
like him calling the clock, because my

600
00:39:52.280 --> 00:39:59.400
impression was that Vampin thought that he
might have got called if the clock wasn't

601
00:39:59.679 --> 00:40:05.039
called. Got it. Then then
Vampon said something, Then Nick Rigby said

602
00:40:05.079 --> 00:40:07.280
something, and it was a whole
thing where Riggby was like, well,

603
00:40:07.280 --> 00:40:08.599
I don't know what why you're calling
the clock on me. I'm the fastest

604
00:40:08.599 --> 00:40:10.760
fving player in this whole tournament.
I have been the whole time, like,

605
00:40:10.800 --> 00:40:14.599
I don't know what you're doing.
Um, you know, Vampin's like

606
00:40:14.719 --> 00:40:17.639
I wanted a couple more hands before
dinner. You know, Sacks is saying

607
00:40:17.639 --> 00:40:23.079
stuff. They're going back and forth. Eventually Vampin says something like you took

608
00:40:23.079 --> 00:40:27.679
eleven minutes or something, and and
Rigby's like, snap under, how much

609
00:40:27.679 --> 00:40:30.719
you want to beat? Like anything
you want like? And then and then

610
00:40:30.800 --> 00:40:32.480
so they have a little bit more
back and forth, and then Vampin says

611
00:40:32.880 --> 00:40:36.679
you took fourteen minutes, and Rigby's
like, oh, it just keeps going

612
00:40:36.760 --> 00:40:38.480
up by three minutes. I just
think it's hilarious how mad you are,

613
00:40:38.760 --> 00:40:42.360
Like you got five hundred k on
the river. The guy was never calling

614
00:40:42.400 --> 00:40:46.599
you. You fucking bink the fall
suit four and you're like so tilted on

615
00:40:46.719 --> 00:40:51.400
me calling clock. Bro, You're
like so tilted on me calling club.

616
00:40:51.440 --> 00:40:53.400
We waited eleven minutes for the hand, like you guys are both out of

617
00:40:53.440 --> 00:40:55.840
line, actually, like I wanted
to get I wanted to get a couple

618
00:40:55.880 --> 00:41:01.199
of hands eleven minutes a minute though, God do we have to go on

619
00:41:01.199 --> 00:41:04.840
the dinner break now? Things right? I should be thanking you. I

620
00:41:04.880 --> 00:41:07.519
think you said, yeah, I
think you saved his life exactly that.

621
00:41:07.599 --> 00:41:09.800
Why why would I not be upset? Like the most absurd thing I've ever

622
00:41:09.800 --> 00:41:13.679
seen? I guess it's just crazy
to want to get four more hands.

623
00:41:14.800 --> 00:41:17.079
He got two more hands, sorry, man, Like, don't take fourteen

624
00:41:17.119 --> 00:41:20.360
minutes in the fucking hands, Like, oh, it just keeps you keep

625
00:41:20.400 --> 00:41:23.639
that in. Three minutes was the
whole fucking Literally, were thinking, I'm

626
00:41:23.679 --> 00:41:27.159
not angry, he's with you.
And then they're like they're standing up and

627
00:41:27.159 --> 00:41:30.039
they're still yelling at each other,
and they're going back and forth and it

628
00:41:30.119 --> 00:41:32.280
kind of looked like like Vamping gave
like this hand gesture, which I think

629
00:41:32.280 --> 00:41:37.119
he gave like the hang loose han
hand just or I don't know. It

630
00:41:37.159 --> 00:41:40.280
was just wacky. It was funny, um, it was obviously entertaining,

631
00:41:40.280 --> 00:41:44.280
It was dramatic, it was all
of those things. So yeah, and

632
00:41:44.320 --> 00:41:47.280
then they come back from dinner and
Vamping proceeds like flop like four full houses

633
00:41:47.360 --> 00:41:52.519
like against Rigby, and it was
just the whole thing was crazy. So

634
00:41:52.599 --> 00:41:58.760
yeah, Vamping later on ran this
absolutely insane bluff against Toby Lewis where he

635
00:41:58.800 --> 00:42:05.039
had he had a high against Lewis's
nut flushed, but the board had paired

636
00:42:05.039 --> 00:42:09.920
on the river. So Lewis like
tanks forever and then folds. And that's

637
00:42:10.039 --> 00:42:13.239
one of the like if you look
on social media, you'll see a bunch

638
00:42:13.280 --> 00:42:16.599
of videos like Pads had one,
Bona fide Anna had one, Shane Schlager

639
00:42:16.719 --> 00:42:21.400
had one, maybe David Baker had
one. But a video of the Paris

640
00:42:21.480 --> 00:42:35.719
room when that fold was made,
the room erupted. This day. This

641
00:42:35.800 --> 00:42:37.719
day was absolutely wild. It was
absolutely wild. Yeah, But I don't

642
00:42:37.760 --> 00:42:43.480
I don't think Toby Lewis like he
knew that this guy could just absolutely blast

643
00:42:43.519 --> 00:42:45.760
off like that, which is just
crazy. That's gonna do it for our

644
00:42:45.800 --> 00:42:51.480
talk about the WISP main event again
moving towards Day six tomorrow, you guys

645
00:42:51.480 --> 00:42:55.119
can watch it on Poker Grow absolutely
cannot wait for that. The seven hundred

646
00:42:55.159 --> 00:42:59.920
and seventy seven dollars Lucky sevens NOLM
and Hold Him seventy three hundred entries show

647
00:43:00.039 --> 00:43:04.639
on. Daniels takes it down for
seven hundred and seventy seven thousand and seven

648
00:43:04.760 --> 00:43:08.880
hundred and seventy seven dollars his first
World Series of Poker Gold bracelet. Congratulations

649
00:43:09.440 --> 00:43:14.079
mister Daniels. The twenty five hundred
dollars No Him and Hold Him is down

650
00:43:14.119 --> 00:43:19.960
to the final twenty four players.
Yesterday, Seth Davies was leading. Today,

651
00:43:20.320 --> 00:43:22.480
Seth Davies is leading. He just
seems like he's just gonna go wire

652
00:43:22.519 --> 00:43:25.360
to wire in this hope. So
he's crushing. He's got a massive lead.

653
00:43:25.480 --> 00:43:30.599
Yeah he not double, but it
feels like it's double. Yeah,

654
00:43:30.599 --> 00:43:34.360
he's he's really busting this one.
Yeah, he's absolutely crushing. More than

655
00:43:34.400 --> 00:43:37.760
six hundred and eighty two thousand dollars
for first place. Seth Davis got a

656
00:43:37.760 --> 00:43:40.760
bracelet. I say no he's got
a WPT title. I know that.

657
00:43:40.760 --> 00:43:43.480
I don't know if he has a
bracelet. If he does, it's like

658
00:43:43.519 --> 00:43:45.280
in some it's either or a fifteen
hundred or five K is my guess.

659
00:43:45.480 --> 00:43:47.599
You should look that up. I
will look at it. I'm gonna say,

660
00:43:49.039 --> 00:43:51.039
no, he doesn't have one.
Yeah, that's what I think.

661
00:43:52.039 --> 00:43:54.880
But I definitely know that he does
have a WPT title. Zero. No.

662
00:43:55.000 --> 00:44:00.679
The first profile that comes up is
one result. Well that's on him.

663
00:44:00.760 --> 00:44:02.480
That can't be it, right,
Um, will you look at that?

664
00:44:02.519 --> 00:44:06.440
I'm going to run through a couple
other notables that are still in ruy

665
00:44:06.440 --> 00:44:08.920
Ferrara four point three million, Nick
Palmer eight hundred and twenty thousand, and

666
00:44:08.960 --> 00:44:13.760
Galen Hall seven hundred and five thousand. They're all in the money. With

667
00:44:13.840 --> 00:44:16.719
those twenty four players left guessing,
they're gonna try and play it out tomorrow,

668
00:44:16.719 --> 00:44:20.719
play it down to a winner again, six hundred and eighty two thousand

669
00:44:20.800 --> 00:44:23.239
dollars up top for the winner of
that one. Does he have a bracelet?

670
00:44:23.280 --> 00:44:25.840
He does not? Okay, we
solve that problem. So he's going

671
00:44:25.880 --> 00:44:30.679
first first. That is Seth Davies
sucker Ring. Sucker Ring is not a

672
00:44:30.760 --> 00:44:35.519
race, okay, twenty five thousand
dollars horse one hundred and twelve entries.

673
00:44:35.519 --> 00:44:39.320
They had ninety eight yesterday, so
fourteen more players jumped in before the start

674
00:44:39.360 --> 00:44:45.199
of Day two. Seven hundred and
eleven thousand dollars first place. Wow,

675
00:44:45.679 --> 00:44:52.159
that's crazy, really big down to
the final eighteen players on the bubble.

676
00:44:52.480 --> 00:44:55.400
Seven they're still six hours still on
the bubble. Oh my gosh, that's

677
00:44:55.400 --> 00:44:59.840
just crazy. Seventeen are in the
money. Javiera two point four or five,

678
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:02.480
Allan Matt Grape and Theme one point
six. Alan Kessler's out there battling

679
00:45:02.559 --> 00:45:06.119
Scott Bowman. Of course, all
those ship of guns are going to change

680
00:45:06.159 --> 00:45:08.719
before they come back tomorrow, So
this one we'll just leave it as it

681
00:45:08.800 --> 00:45:12.599
is. Eighteen left, they're on
the bubble. We'll talk about it again

682
00:45:12.639 --> 00:45:16.960
tomorrow as they either have a winner
or have much fewer players in the field.

683
00:45:17.599 --> 00:45:22.119
The three thousand dollars pot limon Omaha
six max one and thirteen entries more

684
00:45:22.119 --> 00:45:27.159
than four hundred and eighty thousand dollars
to first place, about two hundred and

685
00:45:27.159 --> 00:45:30.719
fifty remaining, you know, give
or take. Who knows. Mitchell Watson

686
00:45:31.039 --> 00:45:36.519
leading the way. Dylan Wiseman,
also one of the bigger stacks in the

687
00:45:36.599 --> 00:45:40.079
room. That one's still got a
ways to go. So Watson Australian.

688
00:45:40.960 --> 00:45:45.599
There you go, Ozzy Ozzy Azzi. Oh yo YOI six speaking of Ozzi.

689
00:45:46.000 --> 00:45:50.599
Sorry, yeah, interrupt This last
night we interviewed Joe hash Him.

690
00:45:51.199 --> 00:45:55.079
You remember that This morning the South
of the Tournament, Jeff Platt interviewed Joe

691
00:45:55.119 --> 00:46:00.280
hash Him. He was eliminated.
At that same time, I quote tweeted

692
00:46:00.280 --> 00:46:05.400
our podcast and I and all I
put in the quote was past the sugar.

693
00:46:06.440 --> 00:46:10.239
Joe hash Him responds to the tweet
and says, message me. So

694
00:46:10.280 --> 00:46:14.039
I'm like, oh shit, what
did I do? I go to message

695
00:46:14.119 --> 00:46:16.079
him. It doesn't even follow me, so I can't even sent him in

696
00:46:16.159 --> 00:46:21.280
DM. But I respond back and
said, my dms are open. I

697
00:46:21.400 --> 00:46:24.719
U sell around the horseshoe, and
knowing that Joe was a big omahafan,

698
00:46:25.480 --> 00:46:29.159
I was like, there's a chance
he might have jumped in the three K,

699
00:46:29.880 --> 00:46:32.280
So I decided to go walk over
there. Walked around the three K.

700
00:46:32.519 --> 00:46:35.920
I found him. He's in a
hand. He looked up. He's

701
00:46:35.920 --> 00:46:37.519
like, oh, give me a
minute, plays the hand and he goes,

702
00:46:37.639 --> 00:46:39.400
come come here, come out.
O'm my gosh shit, I'm in

703
00:46:39.440 --> 00:46:43.840
trouble. I'm in trouble, and
he goes, hey, can you give

704
00:46:43.880 --> 00:46:46.199
me some Poka goo gear? I
honestly thought I was in trouble and all

705
00:46:46.199 --> 00:46:51.360
he wanted was a couple of freehoodies. You just cashed for thirty thousand dollars.

706
00:46:52.400 --> 00:46:54.719
But I got him some free hoodies
because it's the champ. Yeah,

707
00:46:54.800 --> 00:47:00.400
give him all the free him,
three items, all the freehood that he

708
00:47:00.440 --> 00:47:02.440
wants. If you're a former w
manivent champion, I think you have a

709
00:47:02.440 --> 00:47:07.559
standing offer to come get a free
pover hoodie. I think I'm pretty safe

710
00:47:07.559 --> 00:47:12.679
in saying that six hundred dollar ultrastack
Day one A had a little bit over

711
00:47:12.719 --> 00:47:15.800
a thousand entries. They are down
in the money. Chase Land looks to

712
00:47:15.800 --> 00:47:20.800
be leading the way, Christina Gollins
doing well, Shane Schlager doing well,

713
00:47:20.840 --> 00:47:22.960
Alex Bolton also doing well. That
one's got a bit of a waste to

714
00:47:23.000 --> 00:47:27.679
go? Was it one more?
Starting flight tomorrow? Yeah, So we'll

715
00:47:27.719 --> 00:47:30.760
be talking about this one as the
days come along. Could go podcast fan

716
00:47:30.840 --> 00:47:34.400
Paul Them and bag Chips too.
There are you in the money? He's

717
00:47:34.440 --> 00:47:36.880

was an online one that that is.

736
00:48:57.559 --> 00:49:00.760
That could very well be it.
I just don't remember. Unless someone just

737
00:49:00.880 --> 00:49:04.440
misused the badges I made. I'm
gonna look at I don't doubt them.

00:49:28.039 --> 00:49:30.800
good summer saber for someone out there. Okay, this first place prize,

744
00:49:31.800 --> 00:49:38.199
guys, why okay, look at
second place. I'm playing it back

745
00:49:38.239 --> 00:49:44.559
up. Second place is one point
seven four million, one million, seven

746
00:49:44.679 --> 00:49:46.840
hundred and forty thousand got it.
Third place one million, three hundred and

747
00:49:46.840 --> 00:49:51.920
two thousand got it, Fourth place
nine hundred and fifty six thousand. Why

748
00:49:52.039 --> 00:49:54.519
is first place two million, five
hundred and sixty one thousand, four hundred

749
00:49:54.519 --> 00:49:58.400
and eighty dollars. What would you
prefer to do with the four eighty First

750
00:49:58.440 --> 00:50:01.199
of all, just make it two
and a half million, and then you

751
00:50:01.360 --> 00:50:06.519
losing money? Who's losing money?
For the guy who wins two and a

752
00:50:06.559 --> 00:50:09.559
half You just get robbed in sixty
thousand dollars. Who cares? Put it

753
00:50:09.639 --> 00:50:13.440
somewhere else? I'm pretty sure he
kiss. You know what you could have

754
00:50:13.440 --> 00:50:15.159
done is you could have had two
point five million up top, because the

755
00:50:15.199 --> 00:50:17.960
second is one point seventy four.
You could have stuck six point there to

756
00:50:17.960 --> 00:50:22.199
make it and even one point eight
we still got. The next place is

757
00:50:22.199 --> 00:50:27.000
is one million, three hundred and
two dollars. Just make that one hundred

758
00:50:25.960 --> 00:50:30.840
and one point three million and then
put the other money elsewhere. Okay,

759
00:50:30.119 --> 00:50:35.519
the bottom spot, Look at these
seventeen thousand, two hundred. We could

760
00:50:35.559 --> 00:50:39.840
make that seventeen two fifty or something
and seventeen five you know something like that.

761
00:50:39.880 --> 00:50:42.880
You get what you're saying, I
hear you. Yeah, just have

762
00:50:42.960 --> 00:50:46.000
a nice even first place price.
I don't know why people do this for

763
00:50:46.239 --> 00:50:50.519
two point five six is more than
two point five let's just say that.

764
00:50:50.519 --> 00:50:54.599
That's why I understand why you're doing
it for like events that are like a

765
00:50:54.599 --> 00:50:59.920
little bit lower in the scale of
importance. So you know, like the

766
00:51:00.159 --> 00:51:04.039
like this twenty five allar Nolman hold
him at the World Series, he write

767
00:51:04.079 --> 00:51:06.320
the one that set Davis and it's
like, you know, six hundred eighty

768
00:51:06.320 --> 00:51:09.639
two thousand whatever for first place.
That's fine, But the win events,

769
00:51:09.760 --> 00:51:14.840
you know, twelve million, one
hundred thousand, like nice even round number,

770
00:51:14.880 --> 00:51:16.440
whole bunch of zeros at the end
of you know, like because that's

771
00:51:16.440 --> 00:51:20.280
obviously the one that's gonna get picked
up by mainstream media all that sort of

772
00:51:20.280 --> 00:51:22.559
stuff. I think we this WPT
one, you know, could have a

773
00:51:22.559 --> 00:51:25.599
shot of getting picked up by some
mainstream media because it has the charity element.

774
00:51:25.679 --> 00:51:29.239
Yes, like obviously one drop is
gonna be helping push that out there

775
00:51:29.280 --> 00:51:32.920
to as many media outlets as possible. So why isn't it just even two

776
00:51:32.960 --> 00:51:36.960
point five million. Here's the thing. I think we get more concern when

777
00:51:37.039 --> 00:51:39.679
the price the payout is something something
like ninety thousand, and we're like,

778
00:51:39.719 --> 00:51:43.599
let's just fine, ten k moll, Well, we could have done with

779
00:51:43.599 --> 00:51:45.599
this one. You know, you
mentioned the sixty k and putting it on

780
00:51:45.639 --> 00:51:49.719
a second look at fourth place nine
to fifty six. We could have made

781
00:51:49.800 --> 00:51:53.239
four million dollar payouts with a little
bit of tweaking. Maybe he could have,

782
00:51:53.360 --> 00:51:57.400
and that might have been a better
story. The whole the whole payout

783
00:51:57.400 --> 00:51:59.639
thing is just it's just a pet
peeve of mine. So that's why I'm

784
00:51:59.679 --> 00:52:05.400
on it right now. MT everyone
for one drop crowns four new millionaires.

785
00:52:05.639 --> 00:52:07.519
I mean, yeah, there you
go, there's a headline. Write that,

786
00:52:07.679 --> 00:52:10.800
mister pr Man, that would be
good. This determined, I feel

787
00:52:10.800 --> 00:52:14.719
like it's going to take forever,
right well, I think it's there's a

788
00:52:14.800 --> 00:52:16.079
day three, four or five six, right, yeah, so that's gonna

789
00:52:16.079 --> 00:52:21.920
take a while. They also have
the hundred and eleven k yeah, WPT

790
00:52:22.159 --> 00:52:25.840
out for eight for one drop starting
on July fourteenth, so that's this Friday.

791
00:52:27.119 --> 00:52:29.599
Yeah, so those are going on. But of course, you know,

792
00:52:29.679 --> 00:52:31.519
the large majority of our focus is
going to be on the World Series

793
00:52:31.519 --> 00:52:35.039
of Focus, so on the wp
A event. But you know, this

794
00:52:35.159 --> 00:52:37.679
is Tim's baby, soo we'll touch
on it. Every we get criticized.

795
00:52:37.719 --> 00:52:39.840
We do not give all the love, and we're giving all the love.

796
00:52:39.880 --> 00:52:44.519
There's no excuses for our listeners out
there to say, you haven't talked about

797
00:52:44.519 --> 00:52:50.119
the win. I didn't know personally
that we we talked about non WPT main

798
00:52:50.159 --> 00:52:52.119
tour events. I mean, I
didn't know that that was a thing.

799
00:52:52.440 --> 00:52:54.320
Wow, shots fired, huh.
I mean, I'm just saying this is

800
00:52:54.320 --> 00:52:58.280
listed as a special event. So
unless this is a very special event.

801
00:52:58.360 --> 00:53:01.559
It's the WPT Everyone for One Job
where three hundred and thirty five thousand,

802
00:53:01.559 --> 00:53:05.800
two hundred dollars has been raised for
the One Job charity. This should definitely

803
00:53:05.840 --> 00:53:08.039
be a main tour event. Yeah. I don't know why there has to

804
00:53:08.039 --> 00:53:10.840
be a special event. I also
don't understand why you can't just change that.

805
00:53:10.920 --> 00:53:15.119
Right. Does that mean if someone
Okay Darren Elias wins this, yeah,

806
00:53:15.159 --> 00:53:16.440
it doesn't count. It doesn't count, and he doesn't get a seat

807
00:53:16.480 --> 00:53:21.320
into the don't. Yeah, as
far as I know. And let's special

808
00:53:22.039 --> 00:53:24.639
on the WPT. Remember the Bad
Boys of Poker. Yeah, that's a

809
00:53:24.679 --> 00:53:28.599
special event. That's what I'm saying
that you are special events. And that's

810
00:53:28.639 --> 00:53:30.360
fine. First prize one hundred k. You have a two point five million

811
00:53:30.400 --> 00:53:37.239
dollars, But this could be what
top four biggest WPT um first prizes of

812
00:53:37.360 --> 00:53:39.280
the season. Yeah, listen,
that's why I should be. I'm with

00:53:50.880 --> 00:53:53.039

of Poker started several days ago.

817
00:53:53.079 --> 00:53:57.760
We still have several days left.
This thing is a behemoth of a tournament.

day six. It'll be Wednesday,

819
00:54:02.119 --> 00:54:08.280
July twelfth. It ends on July
seventeenth, which is a Monday. I

820
00:54:08.360 --> 00:54:14.719

Sunday and then play play Sunday for the

821
00:54:14.760 --> 00:54:17.760
first day first part of the final
table, and then play Monday for the
