Yeah, a 34 00:02:53,639 --> 00:03:00,280 WPT champion, a w SOOP Circuit main event champion, now a World Series 35 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:08,520 of Poker gold bracelet crown, not the triple crown. Canniff won the five 36 00:03:08,599 --> 00:03:15,319 thousand dollars Champions Reunion, his first gold bracelet. He topped the field of 37 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:20,439 four hundred and ninety three entries to take home four hundred and eight thousand dollars 38 00:03:20,479 --> 00:03:25,400 in prize money. This was the first live streamed final table, first live 39 00:03:25,439 --> 00:03:31,759 streamed event by poker go at the twenty twenty four WSOP kicks off our live 40 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:37,000 stream coverage. We are now going to be going every single day, but 41 00:03:37,159 --> 00:03:39,520 one because the WSP manament has a day off. Yeah, I mean, 42 00:03:39,719 --> 00:03:43,599 maybe we'll do something on that day. Maybe maybe we won't, but we'll 43 00:03:43,599 --> 00:03:47,199 see. That's what fifteenth of July long way ago. Three hundred plus hours 44 00:03:47,199 --> 00:03:53,240 of live stream broadcasts are going to be coming your way all summer. But 45 00:03:53,319 --> 00:03:58,120 this was the first one on the way to the winner circle. Caniff made 46 00:03:58,479 --> 00:04:05,599 two very very big important hero calls to get the job done. The first 47 00:04:05,639 --> 00:04:13,400 one came against Uzau Yin, where I guess I'll just recap the action quickly 48 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,439 because because I'm looking at it right now. Yin raised on the button to 49 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:20,399 four hundred thousand. Blinds were one thousand, two hundred thousand. Caniff defended 50 00:04:20,439 --> 00:04:25,720 from the big blind. Caniff had King eight, Yin had King ten. 51 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:31,439 Flop came down Ace eight five rainbow. Canniff check called a bet of two 52 00:04:31,519 --> 00:04:36,079 hundred thousand, so minimum bet there what quarter pot a little less than quarter 53 00:04:36,079 --> 00:04:41,240 pot? Three on the turn brought a second diamond. Caniff checked. Yin 54 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:45,240 went for another bet to three hundred and fifty thousand, this time keeping it 55 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,319 small. Kniff made the call Ace of diamonds comes on the river, so 56 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:55,040 pairs the board with an ace again. It's Ace eight five three ace, 57 00:04:55,560 --> 00:05:00,360 and it brought in backdoor diamonds. Caniff checks he's got one point two million 58 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:06,920 behind when he checked. Yin puts them all in Coniff tanks for quite a 59 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:15,000 long time. Eventually finds the call with two pair. Yin is bluffing, 60 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:17,360 of course, with the King ten. The King high and that was a 61 00:05:17,399 --> 00:05:21,399 big, big double up, a very important double up for Asher Canniff. 62 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:29,680 And then during heads up play, Caniff was up against Khalil Tests Eurak and 63 00:05:29,879 --> 00:05:33,480 he made a big call on the ten to five deuce two spades. On 64 00:05:33,519 --> 00:05:41,040 that flop ten five deuce six three, Canniff checks the river tests Yourek bets 65 00:05:41,079 --> 00:05:46,759 one point eight million. Caniff tanks for several minutes, eventually makes the call 66 00:05:46,879 --> 00:05:53,759 with just Ace high Ace jack high Test each showed eight seven of spades, 67 00:05:54,079 --> 00:06:00,279 so missed draws for the Turk and Canniff took the chip lead in the heads 68 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:05,120 up match. Canniff started the heads up match at a pretty pretty big chip 69 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:11,079 disadvantage. Test Eurich had twenty point nine million, Caniff had three point seventy 70 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:15,319 five million. They battled it out. Eventually Kindiff took the chip lead. 71 00:06:15,439 --> 00:06:19,759 Eventually he finished it off if the final hand were or sorry was his tens 72 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:26,720 holding up against Testsirix jack nine of diamonds and that got the job done for 73 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,079 Asher Canniff. After it was all said and done, big rail for Asher, 74 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,839 by the way, a lot of people on his rail, twenty maybe 75 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:36,639 thirty people were on his rail. Tim got in there and talked with Asher, 76 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:42,079 so let's play that interview for you right now. Asher, congratulations, 77 00:06:42,079 --> 00:06:46,720 first WSFP bracelet, I want to talk to you about a few big scores 78 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:48,600 you've had in your career. Let's start with a WPT Bold Championship nine to 79 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:54,399 seventy three k WSB circuit win here at Bally's when it was called. And 80 00:06:54,439 --> 00:06:57,160 then of course the tenth place finish in the main event. And now we 81 00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:00,639 have this bracelet of those full, you know, fairly iconic results of yours. 82 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:04,040 Does it stand out the most? Now, I'd say the main event 83 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,560 in a sense probably stands out the most, just because that was like, 84 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,800 that felt like a dream the whole way through this was this was awesome, 85 00:07:11,839 --> 00:07:14,680 but it felt like a like a regular tournament. But obviously getting the race 86 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,160 that is just so awesome. And yeah, I'm so thankful. Twenty twenty 87 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,399 two main event, you did finish tenth place, six hundred and seventy five 88 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:24,360 k I believe it was. You know, it's it's been a little while 89 00:07:24,439 --> 00:07:27,680 now, but can you remember that the emotion that you were feeling when you 90 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,600 were eliminated them? Oh? Yeah, yeah, I mean it's it's no 91 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:35,199 as emotional as you know a game could make me very intense. It was. 92 00:07:35,879 --> 00:07:40,040 It's a beautiful experience, but yeah, it was. It was tough 93 00:07:40,079 --> 00:07:44,879 at the end, but I appreciated the ride. Yeah, it was exciting 94 00:07:44,879 --> 00:07:46,519 though I loved it that year. You had two cashes, last year, 95 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:50,839 seven cashes at the WSB this year first event. Gotta win. What does 96 00:07:50,879 --> 00:07:56,120 this mean for your series going forward? I mean, just the fact that 97 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,879 I get to have a winning summer by a lot, no matter what, 98 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,439 is awesome. Obviously it feels really good. Yeah, it gets just kind 99 00:08:01,439 --> 00:08:03,120 of chill. I mean, I'm still gonna play a lot, but just 100 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:07,920 not have to worry about how my summer is gonna go. And I'm very 101 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:09,360 appreciative of the fact that, you know, most people are gonna have losing 102 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:13,079 summers and I'm not one. I don't take that for granted. And I 103 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:13,959 know there's a ton of luck involved, and I'm just happy about it. 104 00:08:13,959 --> 00:08:16,519 You say you're gonna be pretty chilled going forward, But does a win like 105 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,040 this kind of drive you to want to, you know, work a bit, 106 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,040 how to play a bit more? Maybe hey here, why do something 107 00:08:22,079 --> 00:08:26,959 like that? Totally I'm more I mean, not even the validation of self, 108 00:08:28,079 --> 00:08:30,160 right, to like prove, you know, because we're constantly trying to 109 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:31,799 prove that we can get it done and we still know how to play almost. 110 00:08:33,519 --> 00:08:35,679 But yeah, it definitely is gonna push me to want to keep playing 111 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:37,840 and get more results and see where I can go with it for sure. 112 00:08:37,879 --> 00:08:41,960 Final question for me. We had a pretty big rail for you guys. 113 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:45,159 Yeah, a bunch of well known high stakes poker places. What is it? 114 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:46,759 How does that feel? Winning in front of your friends and you know, 115 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:52,360 it's super cool? Man, It's yeah, it's exciting having them all 116 00:08:52,399 --> 00:08:54,679 here. They were all just screaming ridiculous shit the whole time. I'm playing, 117 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,320 trying my best to stay focused. But I loved it. And another 118 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,240 thing I take for granted, having all the sport and all the friends here 119 00:09:01,279 --> 00:09:07,919 and yeah, talking to awesome. It kind of feels good to see someone 120 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:13,440 who had I guess what would what I would best classify it as heartbreak. 121 00:09:13,799 --> 00:09:18,480 Tenth place in the WSP main events, you know when his pocket tens. 122 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,840 Interesting that he won this tournament with pockets, by the way, because he 123 00:09:22,919 --> 00:09:28,679 had pocket tens up against I believe it was Mickey Dueck if I remember correctly, 124 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,559 who had Ace King and the flop, just king, King, King, 125 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:33,080 Yes, you're just dead. See you later, Like what are you 126 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:39,759 gonna do? So very interesting that Asher Koniff ends up winning this tournament with 127 00:09:39,799 --> 00:09:46,039 pocket tens after he went out in tenth place with pocket tens to very interesting 128 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,879 that he said that, you know, he's the you know, big victories 129 00:09:48,879 --> 00:09:52,000 that you mentioned, you know, World Championship, second Maine, w p 130 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:56,360 T World Championship, w T World championshiry uh this Bras and then the tenth 131 00:09:56,360 --> 00:10:00,919 place that you know, that tenth place still you know, staying there. 132 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,559 He got a million bucks, right, six seventy five. Six, that's 133 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:05,039 it. I thought you got a million. That's it. I'll take six 134 00:10:05,039 --> 00:10:07,279 to seventy five right now. But I don't know why I thought he got 135 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:11,240 a million for it six seventy five. I mean it's good, of course, 136 00:10:11,279 --> 00:10:13,240 but I was just under the impression he got a million. I don't 137 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:18,840 know why. But anyway, continue on that. Yeah, the main event, 138 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:22,360 heartbreak, as some may say, stands out as being a bit more 139 00:10:22,399 --> 00:10:26,639 memorable to him over these big victories that he's you know, had in his 140 00:10:26,759 --> 00:10:30,519 career. Yeah, I mean I can only imagine you get to that point 141 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:35,000 going through such a large field in such a grueling event, over so many 142 00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:39,120 days, it just has to take so much out of you. But then 143 00:10:39,279 --> 00:10:43,120 ultimately, you know, you're just you're on this adrenaline high the entire time, 144 00:10:43,279 --> 00:10:48,240 for essentially two weeks straight. You get to this point where the final 145 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:52,840 table is within reach, and then it just all comes crumbling down. So 146 00:10:52,519 --> 00:10:56,159 you know, that's where I sort of describe it as heartbreak. I mean, 147 00:10:56,320 --> 00:11:01,240 poker players dream every single day of their lives of making the main event, 148 00:11:01,279 --> 00:11:03,679 final table, you know, winning that event. I mean, in 149 00:11:03,759 --> 00:11:05,720 order to win it, you have to get to the final table. Of 150 00:11:05,759 --> 00:11:09,120 course, that's that's a winning in and of itself in a lot of ways. 151 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,840 And Asher Koniff was so close. Made up for it here, you 152 00:11:13,879 --> 00:11:16,440 know, maybe not the twelve million that he could have won in that event 153 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:20,440 or whatever it was. Was it twelve, no? Ten? Ten million? 154 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:24,200 That was espens here, Yeah, four hundred and eight thousand dollars. 155 00:11:24,279 --> 00:11:26,840 He got the bracelets. It's very early in the summer too. This is 156 00:11:26,879 --> 00:11:30,080 you know, this is event number one on the schedule. We're only a 157 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,720 couple of days in, so there are still plenty of poker left to be 158 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:39,399 played, and we'll see if Asher can make any more noise. Speaking of 159 00:11:39,799 --> 00:11:45,399 noise, a player who is certainly not one to hold back when it comes 160 00:11:45,399 --> 00:11:48,279 to talking. You can often hear him chatting and laughing from across the room. 161 00:11:48,279 --> 00:11:52,120 But he's also making noise on the felt that is Daniel on the ground, 162 00:11:52,279 --> 00:11:56,080 that is kid poker. He's two for two, where he was two 163 00:11:56,120 --> 00:12:00,039 for two until he went and injured the fifteen hundred dollars dealer's choice, and 164 00:12:00,039 --> 00:12:01,480 then he busted out of that one, so he's two for three. Still, 165 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:05,360 that's pretty damn good when it comes to poker tournaments. In the event 166 00:12:05,399 --> 00:12:09,799 that Asher won, Neigranny finished in forty ninth place for ninety one dollars, 167 00:12:11,039 --> 00:12:16,120 and then he hopped into the five hundred dollars kickoff tournament that drew three thousand, 168 00:12:16,279 --> 00:12:20,960 four hundred and eighty five entries. Negron, you busted in sixteenth place 169 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:26,799 for eighty five hundred dollars. You know, not the biggest score dollar wise, 170 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:33,720 especially for Daniel, but seventeen times the buy in, which is pretty 171 00:12:33,759 --> 00:12:37,600 damn good. You know, sixteenth place out of a massive field of nearly 172 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:41,120 thirty five hundred runners got us the field bonus. In twenty five K Fantasy, 173 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:46,360 Lets go Daniel, so that allows us to you know, move up 174 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:50,639 the leader boarder. But I think we're sitting in third place right now in 175 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:54,759 twenty five K Fantasy, so feeling good early on, he did have to 176 00:12:54,840 --> 00:13:00,320 skip the twenty five K heads up. He called Tim and I in Saye 177 00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:05,240 Knuckleheads that we even thought that he would entertain multi tabling, but he was. 178 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:11,480 He was highly focused in the five hundred dollars kickoff and made a really 179 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:16,159 good run at it, you know, ultimately falling short of a seventh w 180 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:20,360 SP Goald bracelet. But still very early, as I mentioned when I was 181 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:24,559 talking about Asher kind of you know, it's still very early here in the 182 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:28,320 twenty twenty four World Series of Poker, and I think Daniel's going to do 183 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:31,120 it. I think he's getting number seven at some point. I think he's 184 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,480 getting seven and eight. And I mean he's doing it, man, Like 185 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:37,399 listen, he's feeling good, he's playing well, he's running well in spots 186 00:13:37,399 --> 00:13:41,120 when he needs, he's going deep. So he's basically knocking at the door. 187 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:45,279 So I'm looking at Daniel Legrando and I'm going to say, yeah, 188 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:48,600 he's going to get the job. Done at some point this summer. I 189 00:13:48,639 --> 00:13:52,200 don't really know what event it's going to be, but you know, he's 190 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,440 getting there and being two out of three, you know, so far, 191 00:13:54,519 --> 00:13:58,519 so good. I would imagine taking the night off tonight, going to come 192 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:03,600 back to for the five thousand dollars PLO the start of that one limit. 193 00:14:07,039 --> 00:14:09,919 Yeah, No, I think he's I think he's kind of just avoiding those 194 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,360 terms. I mean, what he's told you, he's gonna avoid the fifteen 195 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,200 better. Yeah, and he did. I mean, he did fire into 196 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:20,320 the Dealer's Choice, but he was here. It's got some big bets in 197 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:24,080 there, I know, and he loves dealers Choice, he has talked about 198 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,799 it plenty of times. But but I would imagine he skips there, or 199 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,240 I mean, at least for the time being, as long as he's in 200 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:33,480 the PLO, I think. I don't. I don't get the sense that 201 00:14:33,639 --> 00:14:39,960 Daniel is known as a PLO player, but I think he's extremely good at 202 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:43,639 it, you know, for whatever reason. I think a lot of people 203 00:14:43,679 --> 00:14:48,480 look at Daniel and they obviously know his success playing hold them, and then 204 00:14:48,519 --> 00:14:50,600 I think they think of him as kind of like a mixed game guy, 205 00:14:50,639 --> 00:14:52,799 and they don't think of him as a PLO guy. So I mean, 206 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,159 for me, every time I see him play pot lim in Omaha, I've 207 00:14:56,159 --> 00:15:01,159 seen him have a lot of success at it. I'm not a PLO expert, 208 00:15:01,279 --> 00:15:05,240 but it seems to me like he very much understands like what to do 209 00:15:05,279 --> 00:15:09,120 and how to play that game, especially in the tournament format. You know, 210 00:15:09,159 --> 00:15:13,159 we've seen a lot. We've seen a lot of him play PLO at 211 00:15:13,159 --> 00:15:16,240 the World Series of Poker and then also at the PGT PLO series. So 212 00:15:16,879 --> 00:15:20,639 you know, don't don't sleep on Daniel mcgroney with with how well he's coming 213 00:15:20,639 --> 00:15:24,320 out of the gate. Here at the twenty twenty four World Series of Poker 214 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:28,440 in that five thousand dollars pot limit Omaha event, just quickly on the five 215 00:15:28,519 --> 00:15:33,519 hundred dollars kickoff that Negron you ended up busting in sixteenth place. They are 216 00:15:33,559 --> 00:15:35,840 down to the final eight. They have stopped play for the day. They 217 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:41,519 will be coming back tomorrow one pm start time is it? And then in 218 00:15:41,559 --> 00:15:46,879 the one pm streams dots at three pm PO Yes, we are streaming this 219 00:15:46,919 --> 00:15:50,720 one Poker gro and the Poker Goro YouTube channel. Sean Smith is up on 220 00:15:50,879 --> 00:15:56,000 top of the leaderboard with sixteen point one five million, thirty two big blinds. 221 00:15:56,799 --> 00:16:03,039 Biggest name remaining at the finals. I would say Michael Wang. Michael 222 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:07,279 Wang a bracelet winner. I have to correct you. Then Daniel Willis is 223 00:16:07,279 --> 00:16:10,799 the chip let twenty three seven million. Oh sorry, Daniel Willis is the 224 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:12,440 chip leat I was gonna say the sixty million that I was reading. It's 225 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:17,039 because I thought this was in chip order, and it's in seed order on 226 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:21,919 the updates, so that's my fault. Yes, Daniel Willis from the UK 227 00:16:22,039 --> 00:16:25,360 twenty three point seven two five million, forty seven big lines. And then 228 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:30,159 Sean Smith is in second place, Michael Wang bracelet winner twelve point six two 229 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:36,360 five million, he's doing it twenty five big lines for him. So these 230 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:40,600 players are all guaranteed just over twenty two thousand dollars in prize money they will 231 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:44,320 be playing for. Of course they coveted gold bracelet, and then there is 232 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:48,360 one hundred and seventy five thousand, five hundred dollars that comes along with its. 233 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:53,480 Again, as we said, three pm tomorrow, Vegas time for the 234 00:16:53,519 --> 00:16:57,799 live stream two hour delay, extended delay so that we can chop out those 235 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:04,839 breaks as we go and just can keep this stream continuous throughout the one thousand 236 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:11,319 dollars Mystery Millions kicked off, as did the twenty five thousand dollars Heads up 237 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:18,599 here at the twenty twenty four WASB Mystery Millions. Looks like it's gonna get 238 00:17:18,599 --> 00:17:21,799 more than last year, at least judging by what happened here on Day one 239 00:17:21,839 --> 00:17:25,960 A. So last year, day one A of the Mystery Millions drew twenty 240 00:17:26,079 --> 00:17:30,920 and twenty three entries. This year it's up two hundred and twenty three with 241 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:37,119 two and forty six entries, So that's a very good sign. Tim and 242 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:41,480 I walked through that field not too long ago. Who do we see over 243 00:17:41,519 --> 00:17:45,799 there? So Andrew Marino for sure saw who is the chip leader? Wing 244 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:52,119 Po Lou. Suppose one of one of Team Lady Gagay's people has the chip 245 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:55,559 leader. So Danny Seppiel. Danny Seppiel was over there, you know, 246 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:59,680 WPT World Championship winner. I can't even remember who else I saw. I 247 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:03,200 saw Alex Foxen over there. He's got a new haircut, by the way, 248 00:18:03,519 --> 00:18:07,720 like she buzzes his head. Oh yeah, it was a hat, 249 00:18:07,759 --> 00:18:10,720 so wouldn't I. Yeah, he buzzes his head. We'll be tracking that 250 00:18:10,759 --> 00:18:14,640 one. Of course, as we go tomorrow would expect the field to grow 251 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:18,000 even larger. They did play down into the money and then they're continuing to 252 00:18:18,039 --> 00:18:23,680 play through to a bag today. Day one b will be tomorrow. Can 253 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:27,559 only imagine they get what three thousand entries in that one, and then we'll 254 00:18:27,599 --> 00:18:32,319 see how it matches up with last year. But looking like it's up, 255 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:37,240 you know, about ten percent or so a year over year, which if 256 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:41,279 that holds up, that'll be a nice boost to that field. Last year, 257 00:18:41,319 --> 00:18:45,799 believe he got eighteen thousand was the number, so absolutely enormous field. 258 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:52,720 It does have starting flights tomorrow, Saturday and Sunday, So I can only 259 00:18:52,759 --> 00:18:55,640 imagine what Saturday and Sunday are gonna look like in here. It's gonna be 260 00:18:55,680 --> 00:19:00,000 a freaking madhouse. So yeah, looking forward to seeing how that one plays 261 00:19:00,079 --> 00:19:03,200 out. Of course, you know we'll be talking about, you know, 262 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,319 who pulls the million dollar bounty, Maybe two of them if they do that 263 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:10,839 again, maybe three maybe that would be pretty how many how many answers that 264 00:19:10,839 --> 00:19:12,319 they need to get? Three? Like twenty four thousand? Probably? Yeah, 265 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,559 I think so, I do kind of like you know what you were 266 00:19:15,599 --> 00:19:19,920 saying, you know, just have one big prize and then have other bigger 267 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:25,480 ones, you know. Second. So yeah, so yeah, twenty five 268 00:19:25,559 --> 00:19:30,680 k heads up that kicked off sixty four entries, which is the cap. 269 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:36,400 I believe, as mentioned Daniel Legrand, you did skip it. You know 270 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:40,279 who else skipped it? And you know what, I have not looked at 271 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:44,240 anyone but the current list. I couldn't tell you. Well, phil Ivey 272 00:19:44,279 --> 00:19:48,319 wasn't in there. He's rushed up. I mean heaby Jason Kun's champion. 273 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:52,039 He should have played, right, did he? I Mean? The thing 274 00:19:52,079 --> 00:19:56,279 is those two guys that you mentioned, Sean Winter who's on our team, 275 00:19:56,319 --> 00:20:02,000 he didn't play did so those three players all went to Trenton Montenegro. So 276 00:20:03,319 --> 00:20:06,920 I don't know if they're back or not. So they could still be like 277 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:08,400 they could have done the thing where like hey we'll stay a few extra days 278 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:12,279 kind of vacation. Yeah right, you know before the summer grind because Tridon 279 00:20:12,319 --> 00:20:15,839 Montenegro was like, you know, two weeks of pretty intense poker. I 280 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,559 get it could have done that. They could also be back and the whole 281 00:20:19,599 --> 00:20:22,200 like travel Jet Lake stuff. You know, they're just like, you know 282 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:25,519 what, I'm just gonna chill out, not a big deal and not kind 283 00:20:25,519 --> 00:20:30,039 of jump into you know, the super intense heads up battle where you know, 284 00:20:30,079 --> 00:20:33,960 heads of poker is different than anything else. You're focused on every single 285 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:37,279 hand. You can't just like you know, fold from middle position and chill 286 00:20:37,319 --> 00:20:41,119 out for like three minutes. No, you're You're in every single hand on 287 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,519 every street. You are battling, especially at the twenty five k price point, 288 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:49,039 especially against the experts that you see in that field. But those sixty 289 00:20:49,039 --> 00:20:56,240 four entries are down to sixteen. So tomorrow when they return, that first 290 00:20:56,319 --> 00:21:00,000 match for everyone will be the bubble match. I think it's eighty six thousand 291 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:04,559 dollars for getting into the money and then five hundred thousand dollars up top. 292 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:11,359 Let me run through the names who are still in it right now. Marco 293 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:17,359 Gruccic, Archer, March Rosian, Matthew Wantman, Owen Massiri, Patrick Kennedy, 294 00:21:17,519 --> 00:21:22,079 Joseph Miller, James Gorum, Darius, Samuel Faraz, Jaka Kane Kallus 295 00:21:22,079 --> 00:21:27,799 SAMs Overall, Weston, Mizumo, Tu, Michael Steele, Nikolai Mamout, 296 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:33,440 Carrie katz l Fa himself, and then I left this one last because of 297 00:21:33,519 --> 00:21:40,720 course the one the only John freakin' Smith. I mean, come on, 298 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:45,440 this guy the best, This guy and the wzippy Heads Up Tournament is just 299 00:21:45,519 --> 00:21:48,640 like the most impressive thing. Can you look up here? I'm right, 300 00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:52,839 look alright, ready, here we go. It's just wild. Twenty seventeenth 301 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:57,000 runner up finished two hundred thousand dollars, twenty sixteenth second place, one hundred 302 00:21:57,039 --> 00:22:00,240 and ninety eight thousand dollars. It's enough. I don't even need to go 303 00:22:00,279 --> 00:22:06,519 through anymore. But twenty fourteenth, eleventh place, twenty six thousand dollars, 304 00:22:06,559 --> 00:22:10,720 Like, come on, eleven second second, He's the He's the best. 305 00:22:11,039 --> 00:22:15,480 He is the best. Everyone loves John Smith. In the twenty five thousand 306 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:21,839 dollars Heads Up Championship. We'll see if he can finally get the job done. 307 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:23,960 It would be, you know, great, it would be that nice 308 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:29,240 little feather in the cap of all his success in this tournament to finally go 309 00:22:29,319 --> 00:22:32,720 on to win it. You know, we don't see much of John Smith 310 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:37,240 at all outside of this tournament, so it was actually I think he plays 311 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:41,240 a comas all the back a bit. He made one of those final tables 312 00:22:41,279 --> 00:22:45,480 a few years ago, one of the lay WBT final tables. I believe. 313 00:22:45,519 --> 00:22:48,119 I mean, I hope he wins the check out. I hope he 314 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:52,160 does well. It would be great casino employees event wrapped up. That was 315 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:59,400 actually the first bracelet one of this summer. It wrapped up second. What 316 00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:04,960 do you mean WSPC TC that doesn't count? Why you said of the summer. 317 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:08,839 I don't even think it's four days ago. I don't think it's summer 318 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:12,039 yet. I first saw then you should have said someone you know what I 319 00:23:12,079 --> 00:23:18,680 mean? Okay. Jose Garcia, a poker dealer, won the event for 320 00:23:18,799 --> 00:23:25,240 just under eighty thousand dollars seventy nine thousand, one hundred and thirty four dollars. 321 00:23:26,599 --> 00:23:32,000 Good on him was eleven hundred and I believe eighty nine entries in that 322 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:37,079 one. Garcia beat Richard roth Meyer, who took fifty two, seven hundred 323 00:23:37,079 --> 00:23:42,599 dollars for second place. We talked about the dealer Ginger. I did look 324 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:47,880 on his Instagram, No mad chronicles. It did say Ginger on his name 325 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:52,680 tag. Christopher Keem. He busted an eighth place for eighty one and seventy 326 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:57,720 one dollars in that tournament. Good tournament. It's good to see the uptick 327 00:23:57,759 --> 00:24:03,160 there. Looks like we're going to see in uptick overall a lease if things 328 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,160 continue on the trend that they are in the Mystery million, So you know, 329 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:11,440 good good sign overall, which is uh, which is good. Event 330 00:24:11,519 --> 00:24:15,920 number four, the fifteen hundred dollars Omaha high Low. Tim and I talked 331 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:21,359 about that one actually declining in numbers. I believe it got over eleven hundred 332 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:25,279 last year nine to twenty eight. This year, at the time of recording, 333 00:24:25,319 --> 00:24:29,519 it's eleven forty five PM on Thursday, May thirtieth, twenty eight. 334 00:24:29,559 --> 00:24:33,200 Remain, as a reminder, just about two hundred and nine thousand dollars up 335 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:41,000 top. At one point, I looked at the chip counts right before we 336 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:45,240 came on to record this podcast, and I saw James Chen and James Chen 337 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:52,359 co leaders, James ten Us, James ten Taiwan. So yeah, it 338 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:57,200 looks like James ten Us is still doing well. Alexi Philotov also doing well, 339 00:24:57,279 --> 00:25:03,319 Jamie, James, Ashton Griffin's out there. No, no, so 340 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:08,039 many times. Actually, wait, I now that now that he's been sitting 341 00:25:08,039 --> 00:25:11,079 around this area. But now that I see that we walked by him in 342 00:25:11,079 --> 00:25:18,240 the hallway, I know Ashton Griffin has a certain walk to him, and 343 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,079 when when walking by him, I was like, I recognized that walk, 344 00:25:21,079 --> 00:25:25,359 but I didn't recognize him, but he kind of looked at me like he 345 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,119 knew that I kind of recognized him. But yeah, anyway, so yeah, 346 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:37,039 Ashton Griffin here, what else is going on? How that? How? 347 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:40,359 What's that? That's what? That's not? That doesn't finish today? 348 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:41,480 That place, Well, it's supposed to play onto a foul table today, 349 00:25:41,759 --> 00:25:45,839 have the Dealer's Choice. That's not going to happen. Ah. Yeah, 350 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:51,880 Dealer's Choice kicked off today, you know, is it? I mean, 351 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:53,240 I don't know, you're the numbers going to have nine? You know? 352 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:56,960 You know, I pull up the updates, first thing I see is Deep 353 00:25:57,039 --> 00:26:02,240 gets scooped. So you're gonna like you're gonna like that one. We went 354 00:26:02,279 --> 00:26:03,799 over to the Dealer's Choice today and I thought Sean d was going to fight 355 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,680 Tim like legit, he said fire, Yeah, he was changing him to 356 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:14,680 a fight. That would be funny, he would probably. I mean, 357 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:22,440 he's he's crushing this, he's crushing this tournament. Okay, there are some 358 00:26:22,519 --> 00:26:26,720 people playing in this tournament. I saw some people playing in the Omaha eight 359 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:32,839 that I didn't think had any idea how to play these games, which is 360 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,000 interesting to me. I mean, people are out there blasting. I would 361 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:38,920 have never guessed that Justin Saliva is going to play a Dealer's Choice event yep, 362 00:26:40,039 --> 00:26:42,160 never in a million years. But there he is. I didn't think 363 00:26:42,279 --> 00:26:45,480 Eric Baldmon played Omaha eight. There he did not know. I didn't think 364 00:26:45,559 --> 00:26:48,759 Upeshka Da Silva played Omaha eight. But there he is, Like, you 365 00:26:48,799 --> 00:26:51,640 know, just like stuff like that. I'm just like, I don't know 366 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:55,160 any of these guys did any of this stuff, but hey, here we 367 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:57,000 are. Oh, it looks like the prize pool was confirmed. Five hundred 368 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:00,319 and thirty entries. Would they get last year? Look? Get up? 369 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:06,319 I have no idea. I think off on my head, Dyl's choice the 370 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:14,720 fifteen hundred. Who knows Adam Friedman, Chad Evesledge, Come on, I 371 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:18,920 thought he won the fifteen hundred, but Duke or something? That was Michael 372 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:22,759 Rodriguez. That was Michael Rodriguez last he was four fifty six. Oh so 373 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:26,640 big uptick. Five hundred and thirty entries mixed, samsy, Hey, buddy, 374 00:27:26,759 --> 00:27:29,240 let's go, baby, let's go. It's going to be a great 375 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:33,160 f in Summer Price Pool seven hundred and seven thousand dollars. Top eighty places 376 00:27:33,279 --> 00:27:37,599 are going to pay out three thousand dollars and a little bit of change to 377 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:41,799 get into the money. Champions are going to take home more than one hundred 378 00:27:41,839 --> 00:27:48,319 and thirty eight thousand dollars. So a couple of days still to go in 379 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:52,839 that one. So, I mean, I guess that's pretty much the news 380 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:56,200 so far and anything specific you want to talk about as it relates to the 381 00:27:56,319 --> 00:28:00,440 WSITV news wise. No, No, I mean, how you on about 382 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:04,279 today? Like it was good to turn the cameras on. It was good 383 00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,920 to turn the cameras on. I had some issues. I wish we would 384 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,480 have turned them on early. What were the issues? We didn't have a 385 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:15,160 shuffle We forgot forgot a shuffler. I had to run to the back. 386 00:28:15,279 --> 00:28:18,680 We don't have a dealer. Dealers, Well, the whole tournament's you shuffle 387 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:22,359 machines. Yeah, but it's one table. Who cares, well, you 388 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:26,480 shuffle the cart. That's what the TV was like, It doesn't matter, 389 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:30,119 but you know, I felt that we needed to do it, so I 390 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,279 ran and got it. The you know what, the box that holds the 391 00:28:33,279 --> 00:28:36,960 shuffler in brought it out, We got some lifestyle wives. We cleaned it 392 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:37,920 up, we put the shuffle on, we made sure we plugged it with 393 00:28:38,039 --> 00:28:41,759 to lift the table up, which is a little scary when there's chips on 394 00:28:41,759 --> 00:28:45,200 the table, but lifted it up to slide the power cord underneath. But 395 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,640 we kicked off that. You guys are all running around on Yeah, I 396 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:49,680 was like, what the hell is? What is going on? Stuff happens 397 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:53,039 that you forget about and you just solve it, You just figure it out. 398 00:28:53,160 --> 00:28:56,920 But well, I did a one hour preview today that I didn't know 399 00:28:56,000 --> 00:29:00,000 I was doing until an hour or two beforehand on what I think was like 400 00:29:00,039 --> 00:29:04,839 a thirty dollars USB headset microphone. I honestly thought that it was gonna break 401 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,400 if I touched it. It was very weird. Where are the good headphones? 402 00:29:08,359 --> 00:29:14,599 They weren't set up for today anyway. Something interesting that David Coleman, 403 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:19,680 who made the final table busted six six. He was like, he was 404 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:25,200 mentioning, how they don't I'm just so used to what we do in the 405 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:27,519 studio on the PGT that like it got to the end of the level and 406 00:29:27,559 --> 00:29:32,160 he's like, so weird. They don't draw her hands, which is a 407 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:36,880 thing that like we just do. They had no shot clock. It was 408 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:41,160 soft hand for hand at ten. It was so much stoling yesterday, it 409 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:45,240 was fucking unbelievable. Why them? I mean, what we do on the 410 00:29:45,279 --> 00:29:48,200 PGT is what should be done everywhere. I'm sorry, I have a ride 411 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:52,839 it's yeah, but it's other places like Triton does stuff very well, you 412 00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:56,839 know. Yeah, Like I'm assuming the EBT does a lot of stuff very 413 00:29:56,839 --> 00:30:00,200 well as well. I don't know about the BPT. I would have to 414 00:30:00,319 --> 00:30:03,720 see Matt Savage's PowerPoint, but I saw part of it and I don't want 415 00:30:03,759 --> 00:30:07,920 to see any more of it. But yeah, I mean, if we 416 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:11,720 got to get a Savage dig in at some point, don't we Sure, 417 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,799 Yeah, we'll get one into my I'm just annoyed that they're not live streaming 418 00:30:14,799 --> 00:30:17,599 these final tables that's going on. Some results from those I have, Like 419 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,440 I feel like I feel like these events are just non existent. They don't 420 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,640 exist. Yeah, I mean it's like why, I don't know why, 421 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,720 Like speaking of turning the cameras on, turn the damn cameras on, Savage, 422 00:30:25,799 --> 00:30:30,079 they have them on. You just did not pressing send to YouTube button. 423 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,279 Yeah, I was like, I was like, legit pumped to watch 424 00:30:33,319 --> 00:30:36,799 those final tables. Yeah, you know, the first one seminal, massive 425 00:30:36,799 --> 00:30:40,559 field, huge paydays, if you could see if Josh Reicher could go on 426 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:42,839 to to finally get a title. And the second one, you know you 427 00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,960 got Eric Afriott, you got Eric Lingren. I mean it's like, you 428 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:48,559 know, that's great, Like, but I got no idea what's going on? 429 00:30:48,599 --> 00:30:52,240 You can watch them on TV in nine months with the channels we don't 430 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:56,240 have. With the channels we don't have. What else we got to talk 431 00:30:56,240 --> 00:31:02,279 about? You put some like here, we gotta do a segment, producer 432 00:31:02,359 --> 00:31:04,359 Rich Yeah, I mean if you only came here for the news, you 433 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:11,880 can probably just turn off the podcast right now. So Tim wrote as like 434 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:17,480 the subheader here, what random poker player did you see today? And I 435 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:19,200 guess we have a jingle. Oh yeah, that's why we've named it. 436 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:23,680 All right, So here's the jingle. I got no idea what's coming. 437 00:31:25,759 --> 00:31:29,599 It's time for another segment. Tim came up with that. Donnie will try 438 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:33,119 to ignore it as much as possible. It's what random poker player did you 439 00:31:33,359 --> 00:31:40,519 see today? All right, this is your segment, so please leave the 440 00:31:40,519 --> 00:31:44,440 way, sir. We started this the day before and we're gonna, we're 441 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:48,720 gonna, we're gonna see this through. Which random poker player did you see 442 00:31:48,759 --> 00:31:52,200 today? While we walked the halls of the Horseshoe in Paris. My first 443 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:55,960 one was but when I walked by myself, I saw Richard Ashby Chuffty. 444 00:31:56,039 --> 00:31:57,759 I was like, oh, that's a little random, but I got none 445 00:31:57,759 --> 00:32:00,519 and not I can top that. I remember we drafted him once in twenty 446 00:32:00,599 --> 00:32:02,599 five game, didn't show up, and then all of a sudden he showed 447 00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:09,119 up. Thank god. I I'm going to nominate three people as my random 448 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:14,319 poker player. I'll tell you, I'll tell you if they qualify. It's 449 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:17,279 random because of where we saw him. We already touched onone, Justin Saliba 450 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:22,400 in the Dealer's Choice. I'm going to throw two more names. Justine Saliba 451 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:24,279 is not random here, but he's not random for that event. Yes, 452 00:32:24,559 --> 00:32:30,119 this this is specific to this event. Michael Duek and Jesse Loners playing the 453 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:35,240 fifteen hundred Dealers. I don't think Yuek has played anything but four cards since 454 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,160 he finished third in the main event, and Jesse Loaners I'm pretty sure doesn't 455 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:44,400 know what Stard highlow the rules are. So when I saw them playing and 456 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:49,799 then you throw in Saliba, they topped my my random you know, seeing 457 00:32:49,839 --> 00:32:52,880 of Richard Ashby in the whole way, not even playing poker, just sitting 458 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:54,519 in the hall way at the you know, one of those promo boosts. 459 00:32:54,559 --> 00:32:59,640 But then my, then my three random poker players that I saw today, 460 00:33:00,119 --> 00:33:06,480 I was sent an image a photo of the stunning one, the who Bill 461 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:12,319 Edler. Supposedly he's over at speaking of the WPT over at Luxor at the 462 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:17,359 Hyperex Arena. I think he's friends with Eric Lingren so sweating Eric Lingran's run 463 00:33:17,759 --> 00:33:22,640 was Bill Edler last? I haven't seen that name in four ever, I 464 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:28,319 would say his last cash on Hendon. I mean, who knows if he 465 00:33:28,359 --> 00:33:35,519 has like some random cash but like it two thousand got this is random ten 466 00:33:36,279 --> 00:33:39,839 yeah? So yes, Sidlau was January twenty eleven, Yeah, twenty six 467 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:45,799 hundred dollars now live hold him heads up Tournament Southern Poker Championship Biloxi, fourth 468 00:33:47,279 --> 00:33:54,400 and seventy five dollars. So when when I got word of this whole poker 469 00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:59,880 industry craziness that we are now, you know, fully entrenched in and like 470 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:09,360 I remember. I remember I was playing on full tilt someone that I was 471 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:14,599 playing and somehow we started talking. In the chat. I shared with him 472 00:34:14,599 --> 00:34:19,960 my poker vlog. He said, hey, you should email this guy at 473 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:24,199 Poker News, John Caldwell, So I did emailed him. John Caldwell, 474 00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:29,880 who was running Poker News at the time, passed me over to Gary Gates, 475 00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:35,920 who was heading up the live reporting efforts, and I had an interview 476 00:34:36,119 --> 00:34:43,239 with Gary Gates, who is now one of my best friends, and on 477 00:34:43,519 --> 00:34:47,480 the or during the interview, I remember sitting up in my room going like 478 00:34:47,519 --> 00:34:52,119 I remember exactly where I was, I remember how it all went down. 479 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:57,920 One of the questions was, if you flop an open ended straight draw, 480 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:00,760 how many outs do you have? I remember that one. Seven, Yes, 481 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:05,760 that's correct, eleven, Both of those are correct. And but then 482 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:09,239 he gave me he gave me nicknames of poker players, and I had to 483 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:15,920 name the poker player he gave me Jesus. I can't remember who else, 484 00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:17,440 but I know he gave me the stunning one. And I didn't know. 485 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:21,440 I didn't know. I was like, I have no idea who. I 486 00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:22,679 was like, I don't know who you're talking about man like I think he 487 00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:27,199 gave me. The professor was Howard Letter, Like, I mean, yeah, 488 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:29,960 I didn't get it, and he's like Bill Edler. I was like, 489 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,559 oh okay, like you know, acting like I was just blanked. 490 00:35:32,599 --> 00:35:36,719 But no, I had no fn idea what was going on? Anyway. 491 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:42,000 That's my only Bill Edler story for no reason whatsoever. What is Bill Edgat 492 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:49,880 Bill Edlas's biggest skull, biggest score eight hundred k, pretty close enough? 493 00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:52,719 What is it? Nine hundred and four thousand? He won the five k 494 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:58,000 and no themen hold him six macs. In two thousand and seven. A 495 00:35:58,039 --> 00:36:02,239 couple months later, he won the Dumble VPT Golf Coast Poker Championship in Biloxi 496 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:05,639 for seven hundred and fifty K. Yeah, I mean he was. He 497 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:08,320 was a He was a notable face, a big name back in the day, 498 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:13,519 during during the Pom Poker boom days. I mean for sure. So 499 00:36:13,599 --> 00:36:15,360 it was interesting that that, you know, I got that photo sent to 500 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:19,400 me. I mean I didn't The photo was from far away, so I 501 00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:22,679 didn't, you know, fully recognize it. At first, I was, 502 00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:27,760 are you sure that it's him? Positive? It's I mean, I think 503 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:30,800 so I mean, I don't know why you would would help you would send 504 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:32,199 that to me if it wasn't him, Like, why would you send me 505 00:36:32,199 --> 00:36:35,159 a photo and be like, I think this is Bill Idler? Like, 506 00:36:35,199 --> 00:36:38,679 I'm just assuming that that it is. And if it's not, well screw 507 00:36:38,679 --> 00:36:42,199 it. I'm sticking to the story because we've had a fun chat about it. 508 00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:45,079 All right, enough of that nonsense. Let's get into get into more 509 00:36:45,119 --> 00:36:51,880 nonsense, which is the Community Cards segment. Attention Attension, Good morning, 510 00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:55,000 good afternoon, and good evenings of the Poker Radio audience near and far. 511 00:36:55,559 --> 00:36:59,840 It is now time for a brand spanking, spiffy and new shout out to 512 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:02,800 some of our most loyal listeners who likely got a bit too lucky on the 513 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:07,719 way to the spotlight. You're listening to the number one poker show in the 514 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:12,920 land, and it's time for a new edition of the Poker Gough Podcast Community 515 00:37:13,039 --> 00:37:15,679 Cards. All right, what do you got from me? Here? Are 516 00:37:15,679 --> 00:37:17,559 we gonna have the community cards every day? Hell? Yes, Well there's 517 00:37:17,599 --> 00:37:21,920 a poker of course we have to. Well we'll see, we'll see what 518 00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:23,840 happens. But our first thing, Eugene, Paul and Bubble the Omaha High 519 00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:29,280 Lower he was wearing his hat, but he did take a photo with Jeff 520 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:34,000 Platt and post it on Twitter, so maybe the hat is still lucky. 521 00:37:34,039 --> 00:37:37,519 But the Jeff Plat curse continues. I just want to I think nothing in 522 00:37:37,639 --> 00:37:45,000 poker is stupider than the Jeff Platt curse thing. I hate this damn thing 523 00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:49,960 with the passion. Okay, I can't stand it. I think it's beyond 524 00:37:50,039 --> 00:37:53,280 silly and dumb. I don't think it's beyond the silliness yet, No, 525 00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:59,639 I think it's so incredibly dumb and stupid, and I think it undermines Jeff 526 00:37:59,679 --> 00:38:02,599 trying to do his job. I don't even care how Jeff thinks about this. 527 00:38:02,679 --> 00:38:06,239 I don't care if Jeff thinks it's like a cool, fun thing. 528 00:38:06,639 --> 00:38:09,000 I hate it. I think it's stupid. And whenever I see people talking 529 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:12,760 about the Jeff Platt curse, I want to punch them in the face. 530 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:15,440 I can't stand Please don't punch me. But okay, let's move on next 531 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:20,280 one. You know, we mentioned this guy, Andy Gold, We got 532 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:22,320 his name. He was on the rail for a majority of the day for 533 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:29,760 the kickoff. His friend end up making the Kickoff final table. Andy was 534 00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:31,119 wearing his hat the whole time, and I feel like there's a little bit 535 00:38:31,119 --> 00:38:36,360 of lucky Hat by Osmosis here, So I'm going to count this as at 536 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:42,039 first WSSP final table of twenty twenty four. David. I don't really know 537 00:38:42,039 --> 00:38:45,840 how to pronounce your last name Night ring House. Maybe David, that's coming 538 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:52,559 in eighth of eighth at the kickoff final table, but lucky hat one WSP 539 00:38:52,679 --> 00:38:54,679 final table. I'm going to count it. I'm counting it, Okay, 540 00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:58,360 Okay, I mean, I guess we might as well hit on this twenty 541 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:02,559 five k fantasy stuff. I just pulled up the standings here so we can 542 00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:07,360 go over this quickly. You know we did mention earlier. Daniel Negroan, 543 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:15,199 you scored the field bonus in the five hundred dollars kickoff for our team. 544 00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:21,960 We are currently in third place. The Dinkers are up on top with fifty 545 00:39:22,159 --> 00:39:28,159 seven points. That is thanks to David Coleman making the final table of the 546 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:35,079 five thousand dollars Champions Reunion. Coleman scored forty two points there. He has 547 00:39:35,119 --> 00:39:37,679 a he hit a price of three dollars, so pretty good score for Coleman. 548 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:43,800 The Year of David Coleman continues. Guys absolutely crushing it. Team Lady 549 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:49,800 Gaga second with forty points and then Team DPMC third with thirty nine points. 550 00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:52,599 That's us. Last year it was us and Lady Gaga, back and forth 551 00:39:52,639 --> 00:39:54,920 and back and forth and back and forth. And it looks like it's setting 552 00:39:54,960 --> 00:40:00,559 up like it could be that again. Let's go RENLN bring it on. 553 00:40:00,559 --> 00:40:04,719 Did Rent did he draft himself? No, he didn't even draft himself. 554 00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:08,440 We're a loser. Wow, what a baby. I would draft myself if 555 00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:13,239 I played a high volume schedule. Daniel tried to draft himself. We walked 556 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:15,599 through the field and all people do is talk shit to me. That's all 557 00:40:15,639 --> 00:40:19,880 they do. Oh well, you paid one hundred and thirty two dollars. 558 00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:22,760 You pay what's through the one hundred and thirty dollars. Okay, number one. 559 00:40:23,079 --> 00:40:27,599 If you want to talk shit, put up your money and get in 560 00:40:27,599 --> 00:40:30,880 the damn fantasy league. Rich Ryan and I talked shit sitting on a couch 561 00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:35,800 in the hallway at the Rio on the Poker News podcast back in the day. 562 00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:38,000 And you know what, we were challenged by Daniel Legrander to get in 563 00:40:38,039 --> 00:40:40,960 there, and we got in there, and we've been in there okay, 564 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:45,280 and then we won the damn thing last year. Okay, So if you're 565 00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:49,559 gonna sit out there and talk your shit, get in there. Okay, 566 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,079 you can get in there. You don't have to put up the full twenty 567 00:40:52,079 --> 00:40:54,639 five k do what we do, sell action, Get in there. I 568 00:40:54,679 --> 00:40:59,719 don't want to hear this nonsense. Okay. And second of all, I 569 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:02,480 don't think any of these people understand fantasy strategy and stars and scrubs and all 570 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:07,360 that sort of nonsense. Because everyone gets scared, they back off. They 571 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:10,840 probably don't do a lot of research and have a bunch of cheap players and 572 00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:15,199 whatever. But yeah, people just be talking smack NonStop. It's great, 573 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:21,199 Daniel, if you're listening, I want you to know that we believe in 574 00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:25,079 you. I told you, I believe you're gonna win three bracelets this summer, 575 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:29,199 so let's go. I know you're heating up. But I also want 576 00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:32,280 you to know that all these idiots out there, they think that one hundred 577 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:36,679 and thirty two dollars for you is too expensive. I was gonna go to 578 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:40,719 a buck ninety three. I was gonna max out the salary for one player. 579 00:41:42,039 --> 00:41:45,800 I was doing it. This is Daniel's year. Okay. This is 580 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:50,400 when he says, you know what, I haven't won a bracelet since twenty 581 00:41:50,599 --> 00:41:53,159 thirteen. I haven't won one in Vegas since two thousand and seven. I'm 582 00:41:53,199 --> 00:41:58,639 getting all that crap off my back. We are doing it. Kid Poker 583 00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:04,440 is back. Okay. He is more focused than ever. He's already passed 584 00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:07,880 a million dollars in earnings on the year. He's crushing it on the PGT. 585 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:12,119 He's writing all the wrongs that happened to him last year where he lost 586 00:42:12,199 --> 00:42:15,239 more than two point two million dollars. Daniel Legrandy is back. He's probably 587 00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:21,360 gonna win WSP Player of the Year. Eat at Sean deeb kid poker all 588 00:42:21,639 --> 00:42:27,239 day. Let's go listen you like, no, you you can't. You 589 00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:32,000 can't. I get riled up when these people like they talk smack these people 590 00:42:32,079 --> 00:42:37,400 NonStop. It's part of the game. No, you know, you can't 591 00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:42,039 talk smack. You can't talk smack like it's just not it's just not possible. 592 00:42:42,159 --> 00:42:44,760 I think there was even an article about this. I know I'm pulling 593 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:51,880 this up right now. Yeah maybe, oh no, most over valued pick 594 00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:57,599 TJ. Reid. I love Daniel Legrandu. He's consistently a top performer in 595 00:42:57,679 --> 00:43:00,960 fantasy, but at one hundred and thirty two dollars that just too much in 596 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:07,679 an auction format. Team DPMC was handcuffed after spending most of their money on 597 00:43:07,679 --> 00:43:10,840 one pick. That is, that could not be further from the truth. 598 00:43:12,159 --> 00:43:15,719 We were not handcuffed in any way, shape or form. Okay, we 599 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:19,800 were not handcuffed. In fact, I think we left twenty dollars on the 600 00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:24,039 table like we weren't handcuffed. They still got Steven Shadwick. We still got 601 00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:29,840 Sean Winter. But he thinks the variance is too high. After spending sixty 602 00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:32,320 six percent of their money was locked up on DX. I was willing to 603 00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:37,800 spend basically ninety six percent of my money on d NEX. Okay, if 604 00:43:37,199 --> 00:43:42,400 leave me alone, if you win again this year, If if I win, 605 00:43:43,119 --> 00:43:47,800 you need a bro I am. I will be the receipts king screenshots 606 00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:52,960 on Twitter everywhere, Okay, all over the place. You doubted us, 607 00:43:53,199 --> 00:43:58,440 You doubted us, you doubted us. Let's go. We are on the 608 00:43:58,559 --> 00:44:01,639 d NEX, ride all way back to the winner circle. Let's f and 609 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:05,639 go, and then I might just quit the league, take my two belts 610 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:08,880 and go the f home three, Pep baby, Jordan, No, I 611 00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:12,599 know it's just you gotta walk away. You gotta get in on a wind 612 00:44:12,599 --> 00:44:14,920 to walk away. Maybe just win it twice and get out of there. 613 00:44:15,360 --> 00:44:17,840 You never Yeah, but people just be talking smack. I mean whatever, 614 00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:22,719 A bunch of haters out there. You guys can all you guys can all 615 00:44:22,119 --> 00:44:31,119 get in there. Does it show on on ODB? I don't think it 616 00:44:31,199 --> 00:44:34,960 shows. You know, they don't have everything populated. I think it shows 617 00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:37,400 like ownership. Doesn't it show that? Yeah? Yeah, we should see 618 00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:44,760 the ownership percentage for Daniel Legrando. Let's see what happened exactly. All those 619 00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:47,960 people are sharp, that's what they're doing. Go Daniel, go all right. 620 00:44:49,639 --> 00:44:52,679 Tomorrow on deck, we got day one B of the one thousand dollars 621 00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:57,519 Mystery Millions Again. That event kicked off today. It had two hundred and 622 00:44:57,519 --> 00:45:00,880 twenty three more entries in the opening flight than it did last year, so 623 00:45:01,159 --> 00:45:07,239 very very good sign for that event. We also have event number eight, 624 00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:13,079 five thousand dollars pot Limit Omaha. We are planning on streaming that one starting 625 00:45:13,119 --> 00:45:17,400 on Sunday. We are planning on streaming day three and the final table. 626 00:45:17,519 --> 00:45:22,039 This is a scheduled as a four day event, right, No, but 627 00:45:22,079 --> 00:45:24,599 we're gonna push it. Its scheduled is a three day. We've looked at 628 00:45:24,639 --> 00:45:30,000 some numbers and some previous events, and we think it's gonna need a I 629 00:45:30,039 --> 00:45:32,519 think this I think this event. Have they had a five K plow? 630 00:45:34,119 --> 00:45:37,800 Yeah, this one's gonna blow down. I mean, listen, six we 631 00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:40,239 were wildly off on our predictions for the kickoff. I think this one crushes. 632 00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:45,280 I hope. So. I mean it's a five K pot limit. 633 00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:49,960 Omaha is the hottest thing in the planet right now, right, and this 634 00:45:50,039 --> 00:45:52,000 is a five K I mean this essentially placed the five K half and half 635 00:45:52,119 --> 00:45:57,599 right, the five K half and half k last year. Well, because 636 00:45:57,599 --> 00:46:00,639 they don't have the five K half, they don't have the five K half, 637 00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:04,239 correct, I think it replaces the three K plot they don't have that. 638 00:46:04,599 --> 00:46:07,639 I believe they should have both of those. Maybe they do, but 639 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:12,400 this is structure wise very similar to the three K. So I'll say this 640 00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:19,159 gets six hundred. What do you think five point fifty? Okay? Yeah, 641 00:46:19,199 --> 00:46:21,159 I mean I haven't thought about it at all. That's the same the 642 00:46:21,159 --> 00:46:22,800 same guess as me. Yeah, I hope we're not wildly wrong again, 643 00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:27,360 or we're just gonna have to maybe one of them wildly wrong so that at 644 00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:29,320 least one of us is great, I should say, like nine hundred, 645 00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:31,880 well three hundred, no, don't, don't do that. We also have 646 00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:37,599 day one of the fifteen hundred dollars limit hold Them, the min Bet Mini 647 00:46:37,679 --> 00:46:40,679 Championship. The min Bet Championship is the ten K limit hold Them. I 648 00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:45,159 believe they also have the three K limit hold Them six Max on the schedule 649 00:46:45,199 --> 00:46:51,360 this year, so three straight limit hold them tournaments. Obviously. You know, 650 00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:55,360 the poker community is a pretty small community in the grand scheme of things, 651 00:46:55,360 --> 00:47:00,440 but the limit community, the limit hold them community within the poker community, 652 00:47:00,519 --> 00:47:02,800 is even smaller. So yeah, you know we'll get all the all 653 00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:07,920 the limit hold them specialists. We'll be out there for that one, of 654 00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:12,960 course, but that one usually draws pretty well, so you know, looking 655 00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:15,840 forward to it. All right, that's gonna do it for us. My 656 00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:20,840 name is Donnie Peters, his name is Tim Duckworth, and we will talk 657 00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:28,559 to you guys tomorrow face Express
