words and then translated to you the student. I enjoyed the little mini series.
I think ule too. Again. That's over on the Octopi Poker YouTube
channel. All Right, news and happenings. First things first, Scott sever
your boy, Tim your boy winning the fifteen hundred dollar Rats Tournament his second
gold bracelet this series six overall, he topped the field of five hundred and
forty seven entries. I believe with fourteen left was it he called a shot
or said I'm closing this thing out. And that's what I heard. That's
what I heard out there, is that when when there was fourteen left,
he said, from here on out, I'm going wire to wire and I'm
gonna win this damn thing. He did win the damn thing one hundred and
forty one thousand dollars in his bank account. For the win, he topped
Brandon Shaq Harris in heads up play. Ingo Klausen took third for sixty five
thousand dollars. Shaq Harris got ninety four k for second place. Max Coleman
took fourth forty five thousand. Sauner Osmond fifth place for thirty two thousand,
Akihiro Kawaguchi sixth place for twenty three thousand, and then Brad Lindsay finished in
seventh place four seventeen thousand dollars. He won his second goal bracelet of a
single WSP. How many times does that happen? One hundred and five?
So Scott seevers the one hundred and fifth player to do that. How many
people have done three? I gotta pull out my Dogssandro Ted Forrest? Who
else? Danza? Did he? Wait? You ain't three in like one
world series? I have three in one world calendar. Yeah, I do
calendar. Now, the hell with that. I'm not doing that. It's
what I do too annoying, Ivy, I got I gotta find the duck.
I got too many wsp Stott Dugs. Listen, the reason why I
like a single world series is because the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas
is like, that is the one, Okay, so like you get how
many in? That is what we're looking ready, PUCKI pas In nineteen seventy
three, fill Helm with Ted Forres nineteen ninety three, side no Ted Forres
three bracelets, three days hot at phil Ivy two thousand and two, Jeffrey
Lessandro three in two thousand and nine, George Danza Asterix two in Vegas,
one in Asia Pacific. It counts to me three trying to count for me,
No, my stats accounts doesn't count for what we're trying to do here.
What counts? That's fine? But you know I'm saying three in Las
Vegas in the summer, Well yeah, Lassandro Ivy Helm with Ted Forrest Puckey
Pearson because I mean he's Puggy. Pearson also included the main event. Very
cool. I mean, listen, Scott Zever has as good a chance as
anyone to win three in a summer, just just given the fact that one,
how damn good the guy is, right yep. Two he's now he
has these bracelet bets or these poy bets or fancy points bets, whatever bets
he he made coming into the summer, he's obviously trying to crush on those,
and I would guess that he's on his way to doing so. And
who the heck knows how much money he can win, but seems like,
you know, he's well on his way to winning a lot of extra cash
from that side action. There's a ton of the World Series of Poker still
to go. You know, we just mentioned earlier that the forty third event
of this year's twenty twenty four WSP he kicked off. There's ninety nine live
Gold bracelet events, so there's still more than half of the live gold racilet
events are still to come. A lot of those, Scott's gonna be a
favorite in the field, you know, a lot of those ten k championship
events, the fifty k PPC is on there. He can obviously play Nolan
and hold him and Piolo with the best of them. So you know,
there's gonna be a lot of stuff for Scott sever that makes it available for
him to go on to win number three. And listen, no one's done
for right, but I mean Scott severs. Not that he's a favorite to
do four, but in terms of like liking anyone's chances, I think,
you know, he's got a decent chance. It's not an overwhelming favorite that's
going to happen, but just with so much that's left and knowing how much
he has riding on it and how much he's actually trying to win bracelets this
year, you know, I feel like he could really push towards getting four
and that would be pretty cool and you know, pretty historic to see.
Yeah, I know we're going to play the interview soon, but he's not
going to be satisfied with four. He's gonna be four. Well, that's
just inside I think you're hearing the interview. It's a pretty fun one.
I had to look. I interviewed him, what thirteen days ago when he
won his first brace Every thirteen days a year is gonna have to interview Scott's
fever. According to him, I'm gonna have to interview him about four days
when he wins the ten k hoss. So okay, you know I had
to mix it up. I didn't. I tried to have some fun with
it. So yeah, hopefully you guys enjoy it. It's been two weeks.
He couldn't you know. I didn't want to wait a little the longer
to win. The second just came out, you know, straight away.
Well, because each tournament takes three or four days, I figure, with
my plan of winning like seven or eight, I have to win at this
speed. Other worse thing, we run out of time. I really thought
you were gonna say, know, Robin m Israi, he he got to
five. Nick Shuleman, he got to five. And fuck those guys,
I gotta say, no, I love them. I just was planning on
winning five at least this summer. So now Sick, you're tied with ras
Nagran or Osmas deep Aria. What's it like to be among those company?
For now? It feels great. I mean you just rattled off, you
know, truly some of the greatest poker players of all time, and it's
really humbling and great to be in that company. But honestly, I don't
view it like that. I genuinely defeat This says a stepping stone towards more.
Obviously, there are some online results not out, but I believe my
stats could be wrong, but they're probably not because I'm pretty good. You
are the one hundred and fifth player in WSP history to win two Bracelests in
a calendar year. What that means is you actually extend the streak to twenty
five years. So I think that's kind of pretty cool, Like that's now
you can own that. He's really cool. I know, no idea,
that's awesome. Points are still pending, but you are most likely very far
ahead of Nick Shulman twenty five hundred points. You know, obviously there's still
some catchup actually, had Yeah, how do you feel at this point?
You know, you know, with three weeks in the World Series, at
where you are with the goal to hey, I want to win Player with
the Year. I mean, obviously it feels beyond amazing. I set this
goal. It's something I've never really done before, and obviously I'm really exceeding
my expectations obviously, but I feel great. But I'm not going to slow
down or anything. I really this was more of a challenge to myself to
see what can I really do if I push? So I'm not stopping at
all. If I said the word unstoppable, is that something you feel or
is that maybe too strong of a feeling when it comes to you a poker
game right now. I would say it is accurate for how I feel,
but it's too strong for what reality is. But so much of poker is
confidence, and people that tell you otherwise are wrong. Being able to feel
at the top of your game lets you play better because you trust yourself.
So I feel that I am at the absolute top of my game right now,
So I feel unstoppable. Got it? Phil Ivy, he just won
his eleventh rice that you know, we have feel howmessy I was seventeen.
He always says, I'm gonna win twenty four races. If we were to
fast forward twenty thirty years and you take a look back on your legacy,
what would you hope that braces number be for you? Realistically? I mean
realistically, I would want, you know, twenty. If I was going
twenty years at like this rate and actually playing them, I would want twenty
race. Let's you know we've talked about in the last interview we had.
You know, you do have some prop bets, side bets, et cetera.
You have goals to kind of crush this one series. Do you feel
like a little bit of maybe regret that over the last few years you kind
of dedicated some time, you know, playing in Bobby's room and playing the
cash games instead of being here winning all these races. Yes and no,
it's so complicated. I actually had this thought this morning when I woke up.
The brain will always regret the thing we don't do, because we'll always
say what could have been? And I feel no matter what choices we make
about anything in life, we could always look back and think what if,
And it's just kind of unhelped. So of course I can think and be
like, wow, these last seven eight years, I really played a lot
of torments. What would I have? But also if I did that,
then I could think, wow, these last seven eight years, what could
I have experienced in these cash games or whatnot? Like I've made so many
important memories. I got to play with Doyle Runson every day for years,
something that like I'm blessed to have been able to do and very few people
have, And those memories I wouldn't trade for anything. So I try to
just look forwards and be happy with every choice I make every day. Yeah,
great answer, final one for me. A lot of people like to
throw that word manifestation about out what grace that are you winning next? Oh,
good question. It's funny because I really truly, like looking at the
schedule, thought the ten k horse would be like the one I win,
But that one's tomorrow. So now feels weird to be like, oh,
I'm just gonna win the next event I play. But like I kind of
was thinking I was gonna win the ten k horse like at the start of
the series. So I guess I'll stick with that, and yeah, I'm
just gonna win the next next turn. There there it is breaking news.
Got Saber wins the ten k horse. First brace out of this all right,
there was Scott Sever and if what he said is true, we'll hear
from him in like five days, So you know, don't get get too
worried, because it seems like we're just gonna have weekly check ins now,
weekly gold brasilet check ins with Scott sever sounds like that's the plan again.
His second gold racelet this year sixth overall, his second RAS bracelet. He
won the ten thousand dollars RAZ Championship in twenty nineteen. In addition to this
year's fifteen hundred dollars RAZ bracelet. That Sever just one. Here are his
other five bracelets he won the ten thousand dollars Omaha High Low Championship earlier this
summer. He won in twenty twenty two the twenty five hundred dollars Nolan that
Hold Him Freeze Out. I just mentioned the twenty nineteen ten k RAS Championship.
In twenty eighteen he won the ten k limit Hold Him Championship, and
then his first bracelet came back in two thousand and eight when he won the
five thousand dollars Nolan at hold Him event for I believe like seven hundred and
twenty thousand dollars or something something like that. I think he's also the fourth
player to win two RAS bracelets. Look at that, I haven't gone that
deep. Is like sixty two of them, sixty two resumes. It's not
that many RAZ. There's not that many RAZ bracelets. Yeah, you know,
sixty two. So that's why I asked you, you know, to
look that up before we hopped on the air here. But yeah, I
mean, listen, good good for Scott Seever, certainly bet On himself went
out to crush, and here he is crushing. He also takes the Player
of the Year lead. As long as my math is correct. He picks
up I believe nine hundred and sixty po y points for this victory, so
that jumps him out in front of the leader board ahead of Nick Schulman.
Nick Shulman was on top with I think eighteen hundred and sixty or eighteen hundred
and ninety points, sever had about sixteen hundred, so Siver will go from
sixteen hundred to about twenty five hundred or so, so a little bit of
a cushion there atop the leader board. But you know, it's still it's
still prett very early on in the series, with a lot of big stuff
still to come. So yeah, well we'll see how that all shakes out,
and of course we'll keep up with it as we go. Moving on
to the fifty thousand dollars no limit hold them high Roller, Tim and I
have talked about this event for the past couple of days. Huge field one
hundred and seventy seven entries, up quite a bit from last year's one hundred
and twenty four. Sergio Ido the Spaniard taking down the event more than two
million dollars for the win his first WSFP goal bracelet. He topped Chance Corneth
in heads up play. Ido got two million twenty six thousand dollars. Chance
Corneth got one million, three hundred and fifty one thousand dollars for his second
place finish, Victor blom aka Isilder taking third place nine hundred and fifty one
k. Adria Matteos, one of the best friends of Sergio Iido, took
fourth place for six hundred and eighty one k. He was actually busted by
Ido. Jesse Lonis got fifth for four ninety six. John Jeffy took six
for three sixty seven, Johann strav took seventh for two hundred and seventy six
thousand, and the voice of the UFC, mister Bruce Buffer, taking eighth
place for two hundred and twelve thousand dollars. After the win by Sergio Ido,
I caught up with him for a brief interview. And here is that
now? All right, Sergio first bracelet win feels like it's been a long
time coming. What does this moment mean to you? I know surely it
was feeling like that because I just had a fifth fifth position one time,
I just made second final table, so it was not that close anyways.
But yeah, feels very good. Barbtina unexpected. I'm very happy for the
totle mam, and yes you had to bust one of your good friends along
the way. Smart. Yeah, that's shit, of course. It will
be very very fun to play up against a very tough but Betty and it
will be amazing if we get first and second. But I take the first
and fourth of course. In addition to Adrian Chance, Cornered, Jesse Lonas,
Victor Blom, I mean, Jonathan and Jeffy, very very tough final
table, tough event overall. Does it feel extra special to get your bracelet
in the fifty k high Roller? I guess yes. Yeah. For me,
I think bracelet's be under the valley Because there's so many events online and
everything. I think it's very easy to get some bracelet at some point.
But at least I think this is one of the best events to have it,
so I'm happy for that. How do you think you played overall the
final table? Are you happy with everything? I think was pretty easy because
I was. I was lucky with my holdings. I don't think I played
nothing very especial, but yeah, it was very smooth for me. What
is it about this year in general? You're having a great year overall,
you know, what is Is it just everything finally working? I don't know.
Probably I'm doing something a a little bit better, but nothing crazy.
For sure is going to be more running good? Iihuis take it for sure?
Were just about what two three weeks into the World Series of Poker.
What does this do for your confidence going forward for the rest of the summer.
I don't know. Yeah, it's I've been confident lately. I mean
the tournaments had good anyways, Yeah, I will. I will tell my
vest in the next tournaments, for sure. So on twenty twenty four,
Sergio Ido has now won more than five million dollars this year. I believe
it's more than five point two million dollars, his best year ever, twenty
five percent of his all time money. I think, well, he's won
twenty one million in his career, so it's like twenty five percent of the
largest career tournament score, his third seven figure score. In twenty twenty four.
He had two second place finishes in Trienton Poker Series events, his fifth
top three finish in a twenty five K buying or higher. This year,
he was drafted by Team PMZ. What I just added reading that, I
was like, oh my god, what it's like. No, it's a
great line. I love it. I mean that that just shows like how
hot he is. The reason why I put those in how you guys are
okay, it's a tooth both things. Yeah, one. I put it
in there because just the showcase. You know, how how good he's running
this year, you know overall, which sometimes in poker, that's kind of
all it takes. You know, you play, play, play for so
long, you try and get so good and you do, and then you
know, eventually things can kind of all just come together and it can just
work. What you heard Sergio speak a little bit too in the interview,
right, you know, yeah, he's doing his tricks this or that,
but like sometimes it kind of all just comes together. And that seems to
be what's happening right now, just looking through all of the stats and doing
all the research that we do for twenty five K. I mean, that's
also one of the reasons why we had him on our list. You know,
he's been crushing, he's he's a very good player in general, and
he's done well for a while overall, but this year everything has really started
coming together and and most specifically as it pertains to the high Roller events,
so he was on our radar, you know, Matt Clark and I my
co owner of our team team DPMC. In twenty five K Fantasy, we
basically coined Sergio Iido as Adrian Mittato's light. Adrian Mittato's costs forty five dollars.
We got Sergio Ido for one dollar. I mean they play, they
play extremely similar things. They are extremely similar players. I mean maybe Adrian
Mitteos maybe the forty four dollars more is like he has some sort of crazy,
crazy Adrian Miteo's juju that he just works. I mean, Adrian Mitteos
is, you know, a fucking god when it comes to poker. He's
really really fucking good. But Sergio is really really fucking good too. Yeah,
and they're like they are best friends, so you know you think that
they're probably talking hands and doing all this stuff always, right, So ye,
very similar. So either either we got Sergio Ido for super cheap or
people overpaid for Adrian Mittaeos. We listen. We also went into twenty five
K. We also went into twenty five K one Adam Mitao's We wanted him,
and it was always like, you know, if we can get a
jiam Mitatol's for like up to twenty bucks, great, we'll take him.
If not, we're gonna get a jim Mitaol's light Sergio Ido. Like that
was that was our plan looking at what Sergio Ido has played for the last
you know, six months to a year. You know, he's playing all
the Triton stuff, all the big buying stuff. So we figure he's gonna
be here blasting all of the big buying stuff, even up to the two
fifty K. Now that he's won this fifty k for more than two million
dollars, I would only imagine that this locks him into playing the two hundred
and fifty k super high Roller, which is great. You know, So
we're gonna get him in all the big buy and stuff. There's still plenty
of that to be had. And then of course he can he can make
some noise in a smaller buying big field. Nolan and Holdham hit a field
bonus here or there. So let's freaking go Sergio Aido. You know,
I expect a big summer out of him, and it feels great that he
got us on the board. So as it pertains to Team DPMC, the
defending twenty five K Fantasy Champions. It's time to get hot. Boy.
He's okay, let's make it happen. Very very slow start to the summer,
but it's time to get fucking hot. Okay, let's go. We
also got Dario Alioto out there doing work in the fifteen hundred dollars nolanan Holdham
slash Polo bomb pot. Hopefully he's still in. He has hit the field
bonus in that I know that. I also know that he's aware of the
field boness. I love when these guys like are aware. Basically, he
fucking three bet jammed on some guy with the field bonus for that one is
twenty seven players, there's twenty eight left. I'm standing on the rail,
you know, kind of just checking in on what's going out there. Plus
we're streaming at tomorrow, so I wanted to see, you know, what
was happening in the field. And he three bet chams on this guy.
And he looks at the guy and he goes, we're on the field bonus
bubble, and I'm just like what. And the guy he was against,
the guy he always had no fuck was talking about. But John Rearden hurt
him at the other table and started laughing because he was also in John Reardon
was well aware of, you know, where the field bonus bubble was.
So basically Daria was like, this is very important. You should know how
strong I am because there's a fucking field bonus bubble. I mean, listen,
Dario has no like skin in our team whatsoever. I don't even know
if he knows who the fuck I am, but who cares. He's well
aware of the fact that he got drafted and he knows the points where he's
got to get it. So I just I love that that about these players.
And maybe he fired a bunch of ODB teams. You know a lot
of times I think that's what a lot of these guys do. They probably
kind of know that he's on your team. Does he know who you are?
It was probably yeah, Does he know who I am? I don't
know. Does he know who runs team DPMC? You should? You should
introduce you? No, I don't care to do that. I don't.
I just I'm, you know whatever, I don't like to be involved.
Okay, But like these guys probably play ODB, right, yeah, and
then then if you you know, you're just playing ODB anyway, maybe and
then you get drafted in twenty five K Slyn, you're in the ODB field,
so maybe you do a little bit of and you're like, fuck it,
I'm just gonna put myself on all my A teams whatever. Still like
that, So I just think it's a I think it's fun overall, you
know, the little like the inside baseball aspect of it also. So yeah,
hopefully Dario continues to do well in that one. He's been grinding pretty
much every single day trying to do the thing for us, So we got
him for a dollar, so hopefully he can continue to make a run.
I guess, just speaking on that event. Thirteen hundred and twelve entries total
two hundred and seventy thousand dollars first place prize. They are down to sixteen
last I checked, which means that not only did Dario Alioto hit the field
bonus for us, he got another five point bonus for hitting the top eighteen.
Do think that we need to twenty five K and ODB scoring needs to
be adjusted. I know that Daniel mentioned one specific scoring thing earlier, which
was about the large fields and most specifically the Mystery Millions tournament, because that's
the one where it gets so many damn entries right that you know you need
to cap the field bonus at some point, and I think he meant to
cap it this year and he didn't, so you know, it skewed things
a little bit, but whatever, I mean, everyone gets the same skew,
so no big deal. But for next year he did mention I think
that it's going to be capped at eighty the top nine tables, so eighty
one entries, which right now everything sub one thousand dollars buying is capped at
the top eighty one, but this one has a thousand dollars buying. So
for next year, I think, I believe I remember correctly, Daniel said
it'll be one thousand dollars buying and lower. So for that, what I
would say is that there needs to be another thing. Is that? So
it was originally the field bonus was the top eighteen, right, and then
for every one thousand players of field got, it'd be an additional nine players
that got the bonus. So for example, this Nolan that Holdham slash Plo
double Board bomb Pod got thirteen hundred entries, which means, you know,
hit that one thousand player mark. So in additional nine entries or nine players
would get the field bonus. So it goes from the top eighteen getting the
field bones to the top twenty seven getting the field bonus. Now, what
I'll say is that twenty seven is a weird number for this because they're playing
eight handed. You know, like the stud tournament for example, it's the
top eighteen, but they're playing seven handed. You know, there's six max
tournaments, there's seven handed tournaments, there's eight handed tourterams, there's nine handed
terms, you know what I mean. Like, so it's obviously when twenty
five K first started, everything was like nine handed max. Now it's it's
different. Everything is all over the place, right, So I think it
should be more specific to each tournament. Doesn't make it too complicated, though,
I mean I don't think so. I think it's pretty easy. I
mean, you know, on every structure sheet, what's the max for everything,
it's it's gonna be somewhere between six and nine. Actually not on every
structure sheet. It tells you how many players are. Okay, then we'll
fucking define it ahead of the time. It's not that hard. I mean,
the six handed tournaments are obviously six the deuce to seven tournaments are seven,
Like you know, it's it's not it's not really that hard to figure
out, you know. I just think it's it'd be kind of cleaner that
way overall. I mean, I'm not I don't, I'm not too particular
on it. We don't absolutely need it, but I would like to see
it happen. So yeah, and I think honestly, I mean, how
many even like the Monster Stack for example, Like I would think at some
point they moved to eight handed? Do they? I mean they should.
I think that the law buying no limbits wi always be nine for the majority,
so excluding the ones that are called eight handed. But yeah, it
gets a little tricky. And I mean the fifty k, for example,
is that's the fifty k Norman hold of me. It says no title eight
handed. Yeah, some say it eight hand. No, but that's what
I'm saying, is that, like it's not top eighteen, so it's not
the final two twos. It should be it's tools whatever. Yeah, So
you know, that sort of stuff I think would just be pretty easy to
figure out. So I don't know, that's what I would I would like
to see happen, you know, it's more of a nice to have than
I need to have. But yeah, just throwing that out there. The
double board bomb pots. So, as I mentioned down to sixteen, we
are planning to stream this tomorrow on Monday, June seventeenth, or today when
you guys are listening to this June seventeenth on poker Go and on the poker
gro YouTube channel. Remco Rinkima and myself will be out there battling. It
looks like we have a pair of Chinese players leading the way, Xijiang Luau
and Kwan Zhao leading the way. Your boy is a third Oh Kangaroo crew.
Oh Daniel hash Hasham, son of Joe Hasham, pass a streak and
Shuka to the baby boy. He's over there crushing, doing very very well.
Looks like Dario Aliotto is still in as things stand right now, but
back, I have no idea what David Funkhauser is in there. Gabby Livschitz
I mentioned Daria Alioto. DJ Alexander is also out there as well. William
Kopp in the mix as well. So again, this one will be live
streamed on Monday on poker grow dot com and the poker Goro YouTube channel.
So tune on in if you want to watch some double board bomb pot action.
They're gonna start play. They're gonna play down to a final table,
and then once they get to the final table is when we'll fire up the
cameras and put it on. So that should happen at some point tomorrow.
Stay tuned to the poker gro social media channels for specific start times on that.
Another tournament playing down towards day three is the ten thousand dollars seven Card
stud Championship. President of Poker Girl Maries Candani did not make it. According
to Tim, he busted out pretty early on day two, bummer because I
thought he was going to make a run. I mean it looked like he
chipped up pretty nicely on day one, but ultimately fell short. So this
tournament had one hundred and seven entries one hundred and thirty one last year,
so you know, given the field size, I think that's that's somewhat noticeable
that that it dropped that much. Two hundred and sixty thousand dollars first place
prize, top seventeen finished in the money in this one. They didn't make
the money till eleven o six pm. So finally, I know. I
know that the short time because I was out there when it happened eleven o
six pm on day two. I mean, what are we doing here?
What are we doing? I really don't know. They got up, but
they got up many even was killos. But they also like they play shorter.
On day one they started to they ended like ten forty five, Like
can't they won that extra level the next day, so they can't figure out
late red stuff. Like, Okay, we'll figure out late red stuff.
It's not that hard, Like everyone else in the universe has late red figured
out, Like I mean, it's not I don't think it's that complicated to
figure out. I mean it's not like this is like, you know,
a brand new game that they just came up with yesterday and they need to
like teach the dealer. Like it's just just they got to sort something out
with the late reg I don't know what it is. You would know better
than me. You know, you're in the studio all the time dealing with
like these types of fields and late red and like how it works. I
mean, I don't know. It just seems like it's it seems like it's
more complicated than it needs to do the biggest difference here and is without doubt
the size. We're talking two casinos, people parking in different spots of valeting
at different casinos. You gotta go to register at Paris, you gotta walk
over to the whole shoe committed to the studio where you're wear what two hundred
feet from valet to registration, you know, And there's not much more to
do in ad Ari. So it does run a lot smooth. We are
a little more flexible with if you're coming in a minute or two minutes off
to that buzz, don't you have to? Don't you have to? Shouldn't
you just factor all those things in like the poker players man like they aren't.
But it's not necessarily the poker players versus like some of it is how
the operations. I mean, it makes sense what you said, like,
yeah, so you play this ten case study because we're talking about so this
is the example we're going to use. You play this day one, you're
in the back corner of Paris. Then you come for day two in your
back corner corner of Horseshoe. You're literally the total opposites in terms of possible
away from not further to be further away from where you are, but you're
like you're asking there's registration on both days, so it's like tricky. I
mean, at least you and I have talked about this many times this year.
Both on the podcast, we've mentioned it, we've also mentioned it off
the podcast. Is that we're in this horseshoe room and it just feels quieter
than normal, which would tell me that all these ten K plus events could
just start in here, and this is where they are, definitely, and
then you also put a cage in here. Well, the K issue is
hot to understand. It's something to do with that Paris can only accept.
They only want Paris accepting the bigger buying money due to accounting reasons, while
horseshoe you know you can't really, so that sounds like a reason that's like
a fake reason, like they someone somewhere made it up, when it like
shouldn't be that way, because you can accept if I want to go buy
in for the month, rebuy the month, a stack in the next five
or something, I can do it from the Grand ballroom just below us.
But why can't I buy and buy the ten k here? Doesn't quite make
sense to me, but I understand. But also, like I mean I
saw it a little bit the other day when they're playing the fifty k.
You know, some people bust it out and you got to walk pretty far
even to get to a Bravo Kiosk. Like yeah, like there should just
be that you should literally be able to turn around and fire into a Bravo
Kiosk and get the heck back in the tournament, right, I mean,
why, like why why we haven't been will go all over the place.
It just seems like that stuff is, you know, needs to be fleshed
out a little bit more and made a little bit more efficient overall. It
is all that I'm gonna say. I mean, you know so, and
also like having stuff in here, I think that bigger buying stuff starting here
and finishing here, like all the ten k plus players they know they're going
to one place. Yeah yes. And then also we could stream some stuff
so you know, you know, we can do some day one stuff whatever.
That would be some that would be fun. But anyway, one hundred
and seven entries in the ten k stud they got into the money. I
believe it was Ryl Denzick who bubbled and then Brad Rubin multiple time bracelet when
a Brad Rubin busted in seventeenth place. Looks like Paul Volpi is one of
the big sacks. Robert ms Rocky trying to join Scott sever and getting both
his second gold bracelet this year six and his sixth overall, which would kind
of be interesting because he just one his five or his fifth. Sorry,
so he you know, Rob ms Rocky would be would get number two of
the summer and number six should he go on to when he's out there battling,
looks like he has a big stack. I see Mike laying with chips
here, he's Avileski, Alex Livingston is out there, Ken callis your boy.
James hopst aka Kangaroo cuu a j Kelsol out there battling as well.
So was originally had a plan to stream this one. Don't know if we're
going to now just giving the length of it. But you know, as
always, as we say all the time, stay tuned to the poker ro
social media account. Somebody just stuck a piece of paper in my face.
Shout up producer Aiden that said final table streamed on Tuesday. Is that the
plan? Tim? We'll see Tim goes, we'll see. Yeah, stuff
is ever changing. Okay, it's ever changing. So it's definitely not streaming
tomorrow, we know that, but possibly the next day, so we'll see
how that one goes. What we do know is that Maries Candani busted out,
so we can't stream it. So ye worry more more. He just
walked in to the he said he busted himself out. Well that's no good.
Well, at least you did it to yourself and someone else didn't do
it to you. You haa helpy in the mix, Andrea car You've all
bronched ten So this could be a really really good final table again. Two
hundred and sixty thousand dollars up top for the winner in the ten thousand dollars
seven cards, still a championship fifteen hundred dollars monster sack. So I wrote
that we have an update, and then I wrote that we have no update.
And my reasoning is because I have no idea what the freaking numbers are
on this event. We've said REGs for two days. They've been wrong.
I guess because nothing is right. I don't understand why we just can't get
solid reporting on what the heck is going on in these tournaments. I just
don't understand. I mean, like, can't we just know what the number
is, especially an event that's like a big event like this. Yeah,
I mean I think this is one of the markey events of the summer every
single summer, and especially when you're getting a fifteen hundred dollars buying you're getting
around, you know, give or take whatever, eight thousand entries. I
mean, it's gonna be huge. It's gonna be a seven figure first place.
Prior is like, why aren't we more on the ball with where this
is so people like us can talk about it. We want to talk about
it. We want to let the people know. Oh my god, they
you know, they had thirty one hundred on the first day. That's thirty
seven percent of the total from last year. There's three starting fights last year,
there was two the years before. So this number looks like it's gonna
be great. Then we got another X on day one, b whatever yesterday.
On yesterday's episode, if you were listening, you know that we were
talking about how many entries they got based on the total chips that were in
the Bravo app. I guess that the total chips in the Bravo app were
actually the total chips for the entire tournament, not just for Day one B.
So that threw us off. So, you know, again just like
why can't everything just be correct. I'm not saying, like I'm not asking
Poke News to go out there and like do a day one coverage for these
big multi flight events like they do day one coverage of like ten k stut,
you know, because obviously they're punting on the day one multi flight coverage.
And I get it, you know, kick people the mystack pick up
with the coverage on day two. It helps their resources, totally understand.
But from the WSP side, you know, even from Poker News as side,
being the quote unquote official live reporting team, I mean, can we
just get some numbers? Yeah, like just you know, just hey,
we just passed seven thousand. Hey we just passed last year's number, like
milestone. Yes, even like end of day one A. This is how
many entries that were at end of Day one B. This is how many
entries that were had. So sometime on day one C. Hey we got
this, Hey we got that. You know, I looked at the end
of day report. That's I was about to say, yeah, I looked
at the end of day report for day one B and it says entries TVD.
So I don't know, we have no idea. What you don't you
know, like, can we have a number? I mean, we we
want to talk about the stuff, but we can't talk about it, and
then when we do try and talk about it, we're wrong. So we
look like idiots. But we're trying to promote and talk about your stuff.
We want to, we really really do. I love this shit, Tim
loves the shit. We want to talk about it. So can we just
have the numbers, like, you know, can we just be on top
of it. I think it's good to have those numbers. It's good to
hit those milestones, and it's good to talk about them, you know.
So I think the milestone should be easy, like, hey, what we
need once we hit X players, let's get a tweet out or something.
And I'm not like, you only should do kind of quote unquote milestone updating
for like a few events, mystery millions, monster sack, millionaire, makeer
stuff like that, like the eight hundred dollars deep sack. I don't care
about milestone updates, like you know, it goes fast enough to the close
of the registration that we'll get there, we'll get the number, we'll move
on, right, But stuff like this, these really big headlining events.
Let's get the numbers. Let's get them out to the media, Let's let
people know, right, let's let's talk about them. Like you know.
Also, you create that fomo, right, you're like, oh my god,
we had seven thousand entries to the first starting flights. We're gonna break
last year's number. Maybe we get up over ten thousand, you know,
come on out for the final starting flight, like you know, like you
you build that fomo. That should be the thing. So I just want
some numbers. So the update on the Monster Stack is that we don't have
an update. Is how I'm bringing this full sit I do. We don't
really know where the number is. So yeah, I would like to mention
that it was pointed it out to us by a trusty bier Rider key and
that he said five or six players have bag chips already in the Monster Stack,
and that's still in the double board bumpot that is resuming tomorrow. We're
gonna say some good luck with that one shown day multi stack good room kind
of thing. Possibly DJ Alexander is one of them. He is currently twenty
eighth in chips in the Monster Stack. So, I mean I love it.
I love the double dipping like that, So I mean that'll be fun.
I have no idea how that's actually gonna work out. I mean,
if you bag the twenty eighth biggest stack in Monster Stack, you can just
afford to miss like a few fucking rotations. But you're so deep still,
Rather, maybe I can play them. You could try and play really quick
and fast in the double bumpops sure, like go back to the month a
second. Yeah, well, it depends where it's located, right, No,
definitely. So I do know that looking at the one b end of
Day report that we can see, you know, who are people that bag
chips? Chang fen Fan bagged one million, four hundred and three thousand.
I mean, hello, that's a lot of freaking chips. Who else we
got? Froz Joka bagged a lot four hundred and thirty nine thousand, Jesse
Cohen looks like he bagged up three hundred and ninety two thousand. James Dempsey
three hundred and sixty seven thousand. Gregory Kelly, we know him, our
former soccer goalie yep three hundred and fifty four thousand. I think he put
on Instagram or maybe Twitter. I don't even know how to play this game,
but he's in the battle that he's going. He normally plays a lot
of mix normally plays a lot of mixed games. Ihr Sok Soka three hundred
and thirty thousand, Brock Wilson three hundred and twenty one thousand, Kathy Liebert
Bag three hundred and fifteen thousand, uh Femi Fashchikin who won the Big fifty.
I think it was the first year that they had it, three hundred
eleven thousand for him, So yeah, a lot of a lot of big
names overall, I think. I think, yeah, Steven Song two hundred
and thirty nine thousand, let's freaking go, Steven Song, get us that
goddamn field bonus, Buddy, make it happen. So that's the update on
the Monster Stack. We'll have more going forward. I think they're kind of
right around last year's number, give or take. I mean, who knows
exactly, But we'll get all that information tomorrow and we'll be able to talk
about it on tomorrow's episode. The fifteen hundred dollars mixed Omaha High Low eight
hundred and fifty four entries had one thousand and ninety one last year, So
that's a that's a pretty big dip right there, But you know, it
is what it is, no big deal. Some events are up, some
events are down. I think at some point this week maybe we'll do a
little uh recap on the numbers. Yeah, Like I have, I have
a spreadsheet that I've been keeping. I just need to get it up today
with the last couple of days. But once I do that, we can
kind of go through and be like, you know, there's ten events that
are up, there's twelve events that are nowt you know, whatever it is.
I think we're pretty much just like going up and down a little bit,
and like, you know, today this day, this event's up,
today, this one's down. But overall it's just all kind of the same,
which is good, you know, because you know, you just don't
want to see a big dip overall. And things are progressing nicely as we
move forward in the World Series of Poker. One hundred and ninety six thousand,
seven hundred and seventy dollars up top in that mixed Omaha High Low.
The top one hundred and nine, one hundred and twenty nine, excuse me,
top one twenty nine will pay. I guess we could talk about what's
sun tomorrow, what's starting them? Well, well, we got the two
K no limit hold them three day event. I love that event. That's
the only one. And the opfnon event, the ten K Hoss Championship.
So for for for straight nolement hold events, they have three hundred. Trying
to go through the buyings, they have a three hundred. The Gladiators they
have a four hundred. The classes they have five hundred. The kickoffs,
Slue to Warriors, stuff like that. I got six hundred for sure.
For the deep Sex seven seven seven, they got eight hundred. They have
one ks yeah, fiftell they got the missing millions, Yeah, yeah,
they got you know, all that sort of stuff. They got fifteen hundreds,
They got a two k, they got a twenty five hundred eleven eleven
do they No, they don't have that one anymore. They don't have those
no, because remember one Drop is partnered with World Poker Tour, No,
not the WA speak. So they have twenty five hundred, they got three
thousand, they got five thousand. Did you mentioned two thousand? Yep,
five thousand, Then they have ten thousand, then they have twenty five.
Then they have nineteen seventy nine Hall of Fame back that is also in there.
Yeah, that is also in there. Who was it? I was
thinking, I was thinking remember the old triple eight. Yeah, they don't
have to anymore either, So yeah, they got everything for Nolan hold them
by and just thought that was interesting how they have just all those different price
points for everything up. Yeah, you know, so what else the two
K, two K and the ten K Horses Championship starting. That's a four
day of Scott's sever Invitation. That is a Scott's Siva Invitational. He is
already told us he's winning that he's written he's That would be pretty crazy if
he win. If he wins that, I just can't wait for the interview.
That's gonna be a fun interview. I thought the one we played earlier
was I had a lot of fun with that. You know, we did
a serious one with him. We've done a serious one with Dylan Weisman and
Nick Schulman. That was fun. I think it will be off the chain
if he wins this, Like it's it's yeah, no, hold spot.
Yeah, so we'll have that. What else we got is that? It
just those two? That is it? Yeah? Do you have a good
Father's Day? It was Father's dight here in America. It's obviously now Monday
twelve, nineteen am. But Father's Day? Do you do? I guess
so, No, it's the same day. It's get breakfast to get done.
I did a French toast. I wanted a French toast. I got
French toast. So yeah. I almost didn't wake up to come in and
do the one hour free prefew stream because I almost overslept my in my nap.
I was like, you know what, I'm just going to take a
nap, set my alarm for an hour blue right through that thing. Kids
in the house or were they gone? Oh? They were going. Everyone
was gone, Oh that's awesome. Definitely get the knaping. Has anyone won
a This is the point of the podcast where we're just going to talk about
nonsense and have no agenda. So if you guys want to click off,
go ahead. No no, no, no, no, take got big
breaking news coming up? What I didn't know They're just gonna kick them around.
No, I don't really care about that. Has anyone won an online
bracelet like a notable, like do we even know that? I think we're
still waiting for a lot of results. So it's where can I even find
these results they have? I think they have been updating the the online portion
on like WSP dot com. If we look at the opening event, this
article, this one, this is the one by Miguel Hussey. He won
one hundred and six k. He was in some people made Texas. He
was in Texas. He does he was in Texas during our series down there.
Yeah, he like made the final table or ran deep or something.
The PKO was won by Stan Tantanowski for thirty nine k plus bounties. That
was event to Event three was a no limit hold him that was on by
Evan Sandberg. You Richmond sign second, Joseph Habert Hebert he was third,
the one that won the Yeah yeah, the w the fake WS main event,
the fake Robert Stunk won the event for who. I don't know.
I'm trying to see if we get a notable. You had Jason Wheeler in
third place in that one. Roman Harbeck won the trip with trays for one
hundred k. Event six is the ultra deep stack. Russell Brooks Upeshka de
Silva was at that final table as well, and then we're probably not going
to have this result. Yeah, event seven, we do not have.
Event seven is today? No, it was Saturday, so finished Sunday morning.
There's one today. Yeah, there was one well yesterday technically lying for
the one today one thousand dollars, so that one is happening now, all
right? Yeah? I mean I like seeing who won the online brind Hanks
twelfth place in What's Up Online? Event number six for five K. There
we go on the board. Good for mister Hey, which one was that?
Uh? The event six? Another one? Hold the ultra deep stack.
What is this the summer of for you? Scot? I know,
I mean that was my answer. Okay, no, no, let's let's
okay. That's right. Is the summer of the pros? The summer of
the pros? The pros pro Maybe it needs to be pros, but we
look at me listening about it. Nick Schulman, Scott Severa, Hennigan,
mis Rahi, Phil Wu all these big name pros that you know getting driveed
in twenty five K fantasy. Everyone knows who they are all winning bracelets.
Phil Ivey obviously forget How do I forget him? Phil Ivy? You can
eat. You know, these guys are winning, like, you know,
their fourth, fifth, sixth, eleventh WSP bracelet. So I could say
that's maybe what the summer is. Maybe we need a couple more winners.
Maybe we needed John Manette to win one. We need a fucking Dan,
and then we need definitely need a fucking Dan, and we need feel Ivy
to return. I mean, we need feel helme with a return from fucking
Montana or whatever. Where's Phil Benn He was a wedding, Yeah, he
said he went to his wedding. I guess today we had our first kind
of crazy wild moment, like truly crazy wild moments. Some woman getting kicked
out of the tournament. I couldn't figure out what's happening, it seemed trying
to watch the video, but I heard she refused some sort of penalty for
a lot of I guess behavioral reasons. And because she refused the penalty,
they fucking just kicked her out on the term and they said see you later.
I mean, fine, you're gonna listen to the rules. You gotta
go. I like it. You gotta go, you gotta go. You
know what what are we gonna do? Twenty five K Fantasy? It looks
like Team Dinkers is leading the way. Had John Reisner, Had Robert Ms,
Rocky Has, David Coleman, Bryce Jackey, Ben Lamb, Brian Raschris
Brewer, and Jerry Wong, all crushing five hundred and fifty seven points for
them. Team Sternheimer second, with what you talk about son him a summer,
he's having to pretty I feel like amazing world serious, he's like running
deepening. He's not anything yet. Yeah, but like did you would you
have expected him to play the fifty K no limit, well, the twenty
five K limit. No, he's fucking Phil Sternheim. But he like he
lives and breathes the mixed games, and now he's like dabbling in a limit
Like I think he just plays whatever. I'm just so surprised, But I'm
surprised that he's playing it. And then he's also making runs in him he's
gonna win one, he's gonna bank one of these really good players. So
I'm not really surprised that he's making runs. You know, sometimes it's just
a volume thing with a lot of players. You know, you just gotta
put the volume in, you know, put the effort in, and you'll
eventually get there. I mean, it could be just kind of a culmination
of everything finally working out in your favor. You know, he does still
play a lot of the high stakes cash games, the high stakes mixed cash
games, you know, two K, four K, three K, six
K, whatever the heck they're playing these days. He did not draft himself.
He was bidding on himself. He was bidding on himself. Yes,
Team Baker is in third and twenty five K Team Lady Gaga in fourth,
Team Sepul in fifth place. We have jumped up. We were in second
to last. We jumped up into the fourteen ooh, and we still have
a result pending or a run pending with Dario Alioto. So hoping for good
things for mister Dario. And if he can go on to rip off that
bracelet, that would be great both for him and for our team because that
would get us up into like tenth or eleventh place something like that. So
would love to see that come through. I'm still pretty bullish overall on Negro,
on you overall and our pick, I mean, most expensive player in
twenty five K Fantasy history. We paid one hundred and thirty two big ones
for him. You obviously watched his log this morning, and man, did
he get screwed in that fifty K? I mean, what the hell I
mean? Can it just work out for Daniel? I mean, what the
hell I mean? It's been it's been forever or since he's won a bracelet,
and then he's playing his ass off in this fifty k and just you
know, nothing is going in his favor on day two. I mean,
what in the world, what is the best event points wise for him to
win exceleting the main I means it fifty k or like the fifty k PPC
or does it? What is it? Like an eight hundred deep steck?
The best thing for him to win would be like us being selfish obviously.
Yeah, Like for for points wise, it would be a it'd be one
of the ten k's. It'd be like either ten K six max. No,
probably the ten K PLO, probably bigger than ten K six max because
it'll get like eight hundred entries, so it'll be it'll be max points because
ten K and highers all and then you'll get the max field bonus of like
eight extra points, got it? So yeah, So like a ten K,
most of the ten k plus are all going to be the same,
Like first place is going to be either one hundred one, one on one
or one oh two because you're never going to get like more than two hundred
entries in most of those tournaments. But but for a select few of the
ten k's, like the ten K six max, like the ten K p
l O, you know you're gonna get several hundred players in those fields.
So that makes the field on us a little bit bigger. So those are
the best, but they're pretty much all the same, to be honest.
So yeah, I mean the only other thing that would be like really really
good for him to win Whip would be like if he won a if he
won like the million Maker, honestly, like that would be like insane because
that would be like I don't know, that could be one hundred and fifty
points for first place type of thing. I mean, not that he he
just wins three races. I told you, I'm bullish on him winning three
bracelets. He's just playing his ass off. He's making noise, he's knocking
at the door. He just a today, He's a monster stack. No
like what, there's nothing going on today. This is why going This is
why no no one cares about that tournament. This is why why going back
to what we talked about yesterday, fifty k every other day. Get these
guys in here. Yeah, I agree, where those guys? What are
they doing right now? Nothing solves at home, That's what I'm saying.
That they could be in here playing a fifty k. Okay, that's what
they could be doing. They could be in here playing the brun section,
could be just the fifty K section. All right, we got nothing else
to talk about today, so we are going to get out of here.
