On this episode, we are going to talk about the final twelve players in the fifty thousand dollars Poker Players Championship led by Chris Brewer. Seventy eight thousand dollars up top. In that one, we got the Millionaire Maker down to the final forty five players Super Seniors. Looks like one hundred and nineteen players are remaining in that event. We got the three thousand dollars Nolman hold them to hit on. Looks like right around one hundred players are advancing to day three. The twenty five hundred dollars Omaha Hi Low slash Stud High Low is down to the final twenty one. We have the six hundred dollars Poker News Deep Stack Championship that drew the opening field size. Very good number there we'll let you know what it is, and then the fifteen hundred no limit deuced to seven single draw kicked off will also hit on.

Again, they are all vying for that one million, one hundred and seventy eight thousand dollars first place prize. They're all in the money. The top fourteen spots paid in this one. We lost Hell Rotholtz in fifteenth place. Hell was short on the bubble, kind of an extensive, lengthy bubble. He was short in that one, and so he bubbled the tournaments. There was an interesting hand that he played where he had believe it was jack jack ten to seven in plo, and he raised Negranu defended it came I think ten high. If I remember correctly, and ended up folding. So a very interesting spot there where just given how short Rowtholts was, you would assume he would have just got his money in after raising with the jack Jack ten four, but he didn't, you know, He elected to go the survival route and then ultimately was too short to come back from and that was that he was out the door in fifteenth place later on and the unfortunate Bubblah boy sucks to be a bubble boy. I've been a bubbla blay. I'm sure many of you have, and it's just it's brutal, I'm sure, especially brutal in the fifty k PPC. But I'm sure we'll see Hell back in, you know, this event and some other big championship events. After Hell went out, everyone's in the money guaranteed a little bit over one hundred and two thousand dollars. Max Coleman went out first in the money. He scored fourteenth place, and then it was Phil Huey, a former champion of this event, falling in thirteenth place after Coleman and who he went out played for the rest of the night without busting anyone. There were some big pots the chips were swinging. It ultimately resulted with Chris Brewer finishing with a pretty large chip lead five million, three hundred and forty five thousand. Chris Brewer is making his second cash in this event. He took fifth place in twenty twenty one for two hundred and eleven thousand dollars. Closest to Brewer on the leaderboard David ben Yamen with three million, one hundred and ten thousand, so you can see that gap. There is more than two point two million. Benyamin took fourth place in this event back in twenty thirteen. Phil Ivy third place on the leaderboard three million and fifty thousand. Don't look now, but the goat is coming for number twelve. Ivy has had plenty of success in this tournament over the years, but he's never won it. Sixth place in twenty twenty three, eighth place in twenty nineteen, ninth place in twenty eighteen, twelve in two thousand and eight, and his best finish was a third place finish way back in two thousand and six. He is going to be three out of twelve heading into day four. Bryce Yacki, who has previously had a fourteenth place finish in this event that came in twenty twelve, and then in twenty nineteen, the year when he took that insane insane bad Beats, he took fourth place that year. Yaki's fourth on the lead aboard with two million, six hundred and sixty five thousand. Jal Vieira next up two million, six hundred and twenty thousand, first ever cash in this event. Then it's Jeremy Osmas. We've heard that name before plenty of times. At the twenty twenty four World Chis of Poker, two point five million in the bag for mister Osmas. Summer of Ozmas continues. It is his first cash in the fifty k PPC. It's just kind of fitting that it comes this year when he's just having huge score after huge score, deep run after deep run here at the World Series of Poker. I think he's won already more than three million dollars. If he ends up, you know, going on to this one, goes up over four million dollars. I mean, just an absolutely massive, massive summer so far for Jeremy Osmas. And he's done it all. You know, he's had all this success and he hasn't actually won a tournament yet you know, he's won a boatload of money, He's had a lot of final tables, a lot of deep runs, et cetera, but hasn't actually grabbed another bracelet. But it seems like it's only a matter of time at this point. For Jeremy Osmas, Dylan Smith one million, seven hundred and fifteen thousand, like jaw Vieira Smith making his first cash in this event. Then we have James Ops with one million, six hundred and forty thousand. He took fourth in twenty twenty three, fifteenth in twenty seventeen, and tenth in twenty fourteen. So Ops making his fourth cash in the fifty k PPC. Johnny Becker one million, three hundred and sixty five thousand in the bag. For mister Becker, he had a runner out finish in this event back in twenty seventeen. Ellier Cion won the tournament. That year, Becker took second. Daniel Negron, you is on today, four boys and girls. Let's go team DPMC. Let's go listen. Daniel keeps on knocking at the damn door, and one of these days he's just gonna kick that damn door down and he's gonna burst on through. He's gonna put an end to this bracelet. You're out, and he is going to get number seven, and hey, why not it be his favorite tournament of the year, one of the most prestigious tournaments in all of poker right there, you know, right behind it's like the one beach to the wsp Man EVENTWSB Man event is the best, of course, yes, but one bee the fifty thousand dollars Poker Players Championship Negron. You is tenth out of twelve players remaining. But you know, he mentioned to me while I was out there running around the floor for a little bit, just how good the structure is. It allows you to really grind, grind, grind, And that is true. So he has one million, one hundred and five thousand that he put in the bag, but it's kind of plenty of chips because this tournament is just such a good structure. It really is. Mgrandey previously has had a ninth place finish in this event in twenty twenty one, fifth place in twenty seventeen, twelfth in twenty sixteen, and thirteenth in two thousand and eight. Next up, eleven out of twelve on the leader board. I mean, this guy, this guy, and this tournament is it's like not even believable at this point. Michael the Grinder is rocky. He's back. Yes, the Grinder, three time champion of this event. He's previously cashed in it four times. He had those three wins, he had another final table, another top four finish, finishing in fourth place in twenty sixteen. He's got eight hundred and thirty thousand in the bag. I mean, listen, I know he's short on chips, but for whatever reason, the Grinder just does it in the fifty KPPC. He won his first fifty KPPC back in twenty ten, then he won again in twenty twelve. He had that fourth place finish in twenty sixteen, and then in twenty eighteen he won this damn thing again for his third title. It's unreal how well he performs in this tournament and now here he is in the money advancing today four He's at least gonna get a twelfth place finish, if not better. And we'll see if the Grinder can spin up some chips and really really really make some noise. And then we have Renon Brushki rounding out the pack. Twelfth place for him right now on the leaderboard, but you may get to day four, you can do some damage. So he's making his first cash in this event, and he has eight hundred and twenty thousand in the bag, so only ten thousand behind Michael Mzeraki. The plan is to have these players return on Wednesday, June twenty sixth at two pm, and I believe we will be streaming starting at maybe four, maybe five. I don't know exactly what time the stream starts, but it'll be on poker Go so you can watch all these you know, superstar poker players battle to make the final table. This is a five day event, so it's not gonna end tomorrow. The plan is tomorrow these twelve players will return. They'll play down to I don't know five players, six players, seven players, something like that at one table. It is a seven handed tournament, so you know, official final table would be seven if you're about that sort of thing. But yeah, play down to the final table and then they'll come back on Thursday to finish it out. Final table on Thursday will also be streaming on PokerGO dot com. All right, let's move over to the Millionaire maker. It's it's hard to imagine that they're down to forty five players from a field of ten thousand, nine hundred and thirty nine. That's just ridiculous. Martin Mathis and Max Neugebauer are tied for the lead. I believe it's thirteen million and twenty five thousand in chips exactly for both players, which is pretty crazy that they ended with the exact amount of chips each players are guaranteed thirty three hundred dollars. This was a fifteen hundred dollars buy and it did have three starting flights and you could play two bullets on each flight, so the maximum that you would be in for is nine thousand dollars, So you are more than tripling your money if you've made it this far and you happen to fire all six bullets in this one. There are a few bracelet winners still alive. Jason Wheeler, Sean Troja, Jaspel Brawl are all advancing to day four. Have to give a special shout out to Alex Kim who is also moving today four. And the reason why I bring up Alex Kim is because he attended the first ever Poker Goro MTT Strategy Workshop back in April. That was something that we did in partnership with Andrew Lucky Chewie Lichtenberger and Andrew Moreno, the two Andrews aka Pocket Aces aa No. But they were out of the studio. They held a seminar for a group of people. Alex was one of them. So hopefully he's taking some of that knowledge that he learned from those brilliant minds Lichtenberger and Moreno and is applying it here in his deep run. Also during that seminar, at the end of it, included in the seminar package you got to play a live satellite at Aria and there was two five thousand dollars seats up for grabs to compete in the first event of the US Poker Open. Alex Kim was one of the players who obviously participated in that satellite as part of the seminar package and then won one of the seats. So it seems like his the knowledge that he gained, you know, is possibly getting put to good use, and that's the best test case for what we're trying to do with those strategy seminars. So Alex Kim is down to the final forty five. He is moving on today four and you absolutely love to see it. The Super Seniors looks like they have one hundred and nineteen players remaining. It is Gregory Peterson up on top leading the field intoday three. They are in the money guaranteed a little bit over three thousand dollars as well as a one thousand dollars buying, had more than three thousand entries in the field. It was up year over year versus last year. Still, you know, a bit of a wayte to go with one hundred and nineteen players remaining. But of course you get down to this point in the tournaments you're moving today three. You know, you're really starting to feel it. And there is more than three hundred and sixty eight thousand dollars up top and the coveted World Series of Poker gold bracelets. So I'm sure that all these one hundred and nineteen players are very much like you know, I on the prize. Now, focus, focus, focus, let's go Manny Manaya, Kevin O'Donnell, Kevin Song, Bill Edler. Kind of crazy there. Bill Edler is, you know, I haven't seen him around playing poker in forever. Tom Lee, Larry Wright, Lee Markol, Barry Greenstein, and Vince Burgio are among the players to bag up chips and head into Day three. Funny story about Bill Edler quickly. So when I when I first got started in poker, back in two thousand and eight, I had an interview with Poker News with it was with Gary Gates, right, so I have an interviewed get Gary's like putting together the team. He was in charge of the Poker News Live reporting team at the time, and the biggest thing that the Poker News Live reporting team did was the World Series of Poker coverage, so he was busy putting together the team for that summer. In two thousand and eight, I was coming out of college. I ended up getting an interview with Gary hop on the think it was a skype call that we did. Hop on the skype call, you know, he's running me through questions, doing the whole interview thing whatnot. One of the questions, one of the portions of the interview was to test your poker knowledge. So asked me a few different questions, you know, I remember, I remember the first question that he asked me was kind of a silly one, and I like, I probably laugh, like, but without him knowing that I was laughing. He asked me how many outs you have if you flop an open end straight draw, and I was like, yeah, okay, eight, like like is this kind of you know, it's kind of funny, like is this a trick question? You know whatever. Anyway, so sore there was that. There was some other questions about, you know, some various things that had to do with poker. Then he asked he gave He's like, I'm gonna give nicknames of players, and you know, I would like you to name that that player. I think one was Jesus, uh, you know who's Jesus whatever. Forget a couple of the other ones, but I remember one of them was the stunning one, and it's the one I didn't get, and it was Bill Edler. Bill Edler's nickname was the Stunning One. I did not know it at the time, and I was I was bummed out because I felt like, I felt like I did extremely well in the interview. I remember, like you know, I was, I came back home from college. I was at my parents' house. I remember coming back downstairs telling my mom, like, I thought I did great in the interview, but I was like I missed this one question. I didn't know who this person was. I didn't have the answer to Bill Edler, but I guess it didn't matter because I got the job anyway, and that was all she wrote. The rest is history, of course, and here I am. I guess I'm just a lifer in this industry, all because I guess I passed that interview back in the day, even though I didn't know who the stunning one was. But yeah, Bill Edler is moving on to Day three in the Super Seniors tournament again. Three hundred and sixty eight thousand dollars up top. We have the three thousand dollars, no limit hold them. I played this one, didn't advance, of course, but they're moving to day three. It looks like we have one hundred and six players remaining, Sir Levy out of Israel leading the way into day three. Levy's got seven hundred and ninety three thousand dollars in winnings ahead of this event, so the players are guaranteed a little bit over seven thousand dollars in prize money. It looks like looking at his Henden mob, it looks like he took nineteenth in the WSP Main Event in twenty twenty two for three hundred and twenty three thousand dollars, which is pretty crazy field set at seven hundred, seventeen hundred, excuse me, seventeen hundred and seventy three entries according to Little Entries thing here on WSP dot com, just under six hundred and seventy seven thousand dollars up top for the win. They are all in the money. They are moving on to Day three. Noel Rodriguez is third chips. It looks like Rodriguez finished second to Nick Schulman in the twenty five k that Shulman won. If you remember, Rodriguez had the ace king Shoulman had the quan when they had that massive clash blind down blind for like all the chips in play very early on, the Queen held for Shulman. He went on to steamroll the final table. Rodriguez was left super super short after losing that massive flip, but much to his credit, he battled all the way back and was able to secure second place in that event. Nick Seward, who won a bracelet earlier this summer, he's still alive with the big stack. Kristin Foxen also still alive with the big stack. You got Kyle Julius in there, you got Vanessa Caid, Ignacio Moron, Anthony Zeno, Andrea Cary. Looks like Adam Friedman's out there. I mean, this is a pretty fun field again. You know, six and seventy seven thousand dollars up top. This is the three K no limit hold them. It is scheduled as a four day event, so they're moving forward to Day three, play down to the final table or as close as they can get, and then return the next day on Thursday to finish it out. And we'll have more on this event as we go. The twenty five hundred dollars mixed Omaha High Low slash Stud High Low has twenty one players remaining, that is from a field of five hundred and seven players, two hundred and twenty two thousand dollars up top, and it looks to be David Williams leading the way, not by much. David Williams two thousand and four wisby main event runner up. One million, eight hundred and ninety thousand for David Williams and the chip Ley Darios Sammartino is just twenty thousand chips behind him. Joe Coudin is third chips. You got Matt Vangren sitting fifth, So tough field here and yeah, this this is a This is a pretty fun tournament overall. I mean, I know, I know, you know, Oe gets gets a fair amount of flak because it's kind of a boring game that no one likes. Our boring mixed that no one likes. If you ever, like, have covered this tournament from at least I have, And it's you feel like you're just in quicksand like you're just not moving because all the pots are split pots. You're like, we're not going anywhere. Like, how am I supposed to write this up? Oh? Great action? Oh but it's chop. Oh great action. Oh but it's a chop. You know. It's just it's kind of surprising that, you know, anyone gets eliminated in this tournament. It somehow gets over in three days. Jeff Mattson is also in there moving forward. Nick cost In there as well. We did lose right before the end of the day on day two. Benny Glauser, I think he went out in twenty third. Aaron Coopan going out in twenty second. Again, this is a twenty five hundred dollars Omaha Hi Lo Slash Stud High Low Mixed Tournament. The six hundred dollars Poker News Deep Stack Championship kicked off today and boy did a kickoff five thousand, one, one hundred and ten entries. It looks like I'm seeing a little bit of discrepancies there. I saw in the updates, like as the actual post it said one hundred and ten here on WSP dot com, I see one hundred and twenty six. Whatever. It's pretty close. Doesn't matter. But this event, this year, renamed it does have the title sponsored Poker News. Last year six hundred dollars Deep Stack Championship drew four three hundred and three entries, so a boost of about eight hundred entries, which is really good. In this event, Hideki such Hashi is leading the way, but not by much, only head by about a one hundred and twenty five thousand or so ahead of Martin Cabrel. Didn't think Martin Cabrell would be in there battling in a six hundred dollar buying tournament, but hey, here we are. I think there's a little bit under eight hundred players remaining in this tournament. Two hundred and eighty three thousand dollars up top. Seven hundred sixty seven players found a bag. They all are in the money. That is how many people cash guaranteed twelve hundred and one dollars. Jamie kurse Stutter is out there with chips moving on ben U Wannie Huey. That's why she wasn't rouling. Phil Huey at the fifty K. I didn't see her on the rail when I was up there, and I was like, I wonder where she is. She must be in a tournament. Well, there she is. She's a bag chips in the six hundred dollars Poker News Deep Stack Championship. As always, you know, we'll follow this tournament as we go. It's early. It's a huge, huge, huge event. So more to come on the six hundred dollars Poker News Deep Stack Championship, and then the last event that was playing today, we have the fifteen hundred dollars Nolamant duced to seven single draw lowball oas Ahmed bagged a pretty healthy chip lead here on day one. As this event through four hundred and fifty three entries, looks like there are sixty eight players remaining. Six hundred and thirty three thousand in the bag for Ahmed, he's ahead of David Odb Baker. Shout out my guy, ODB. Four hundred and eighty thousand in the bag for Odb. He begged. That's that's a pretty good stack, to be honest. Jen Harmon third, Patrick Moulder, who just won a bracelet the other day. I think it was mixed triple draw if I remember correctly. And then Dario Alioto looks like he's fifth in chips three hundred and thirty five thousand, and that's important because team DPMC. That means we got two decent shots tomorrow. At least we got Daniel Nigranu in the final twelve of the fifty thousand dollars Poker Players Championship in the money in that one, you know, on the shorter side compared to the field on chips, but still plenty to work with for Negraniu. And now we have Dario Alioto here fifth in chips entering day two of the fifteen hundred dollars no limit Duce to seven single draw. So two good shots overall. Would love to see us get the victory in both of these. In this fifteen hundred dollars. No limit duce to seven single draw more than one hundred and twenty three thousand dollars up top. Everyone is guaranteed three thousand and forty dollars. Right now, let me see who else is on the leader board. Ryan Depolo bagged a lot of chips, David Funkhouser, Ben Wang, Marcel vonk Patrick, Leonard aka Pads, Chance Corneth, Robert Campbell, former Player of the Year, Steve Zolatau, Brian Yun bagged Well, David box in there, Brad Rubin. I mean, yeah, there's there's a lot of star park on this one. You got Calvin Anderson down there, Ryan Lang, justin Saliba, Heather Elkhorn High Park. Yeah, this is this is a pretty pretty good field overall. But as far as I'm concerned, I'm looking at Dario Alioto and I'm expecting him to make a run. So let's go Dario tomorrow at the World Series of Poker. It is going to be Wednesday. Well today, for those of you listening, I got to get better at that. I got to get better at saying today, because when the audience is listening, it's today. So today at the World Series of Poker Wednesday, June twenty six Let's see what we got. We have another deep stack event, same buy in as the Poker News Deep Stack Championship. This one is a six hundred dollar nola at hold them deep stack, so pretty simple, should draw a really really good feel. It's kind of like one of those things where come out, you play the six hundred dollar Poker News Deep Stack Championship and then you can also fire this six hundred dollars deep stack. On Wednesday, June twenty sixth. We also have a very very fun event, something that I'm very much looking forward to following seeing how it performs, who turns out for it, all that sort of stuff. Event sixty five five thousand dollar Seniors high Roller. That's gonna be a fun one. I'm very interested to see how this goes. At the WPT World Championship Series in December at the WIN they had a Seniors Championship or sorry, a Senior's high Roller event, I should say. So, let's see how it goes. I mean, I think this is a great addition to the schedule, kind of a you know, a long time coming. I think it'll be massive. I mean, I mean, it's been seniors a week here. It's been pretty crazy that that senior's high roller that was at the win that was a ten k. This is a five K. So if you came out for the seniors event, you know, the one K Seniors Championship did massive numbers. I think just under eight thousand. Uh, the one thousand dollars Super Seniors got over thirty three hundred. You know, I think this one's gonna be just gangbusters pretty I know it's a high roller. I know the price tag is a little bit larger than you know, one K Seniors and the one K Super Seniors, but still five ks is fairly accessible for people that want to take a shot in a World Series of Poker Gold Bracelet event. You know, if you're coming out and you're firing a couple of bullets in either the Super either the Seniors Championship or the Super Seniors, then you can probably also get into the five K. So I'm very much looking forward to what this one draws. Kind of have no idea what to expect from numbers, but I do think it's pretty awesome that they have this on the schedule. So let's see how it goes. We also have the ten thousand dollars Pot Limit Omaha Championship. That is the afternoon event kicking off on Wednesday, June twenty sixth As for Poker Girl, we will be streaming Day four of the fifty k PPC as mentioned, leading into the final table of that event on Thursday, and then also on Thursday, we will be streaming the final table of the fifteen hundred dollars Millionaire Maker. I'm gonna keep it short and sweet. It's just about three am here in Las Vegas. I want to get home and try and get some sleep, so I'm gonna call it here. Hope you guys enjoyed the solo podcast. Hopefully I get Tim back soon, because you know, I can't keep talking to myself like this. I don't. I'm not gonna sit here and do crazy rankings just to fill the air. I'm gonna run through the news and i'm gonna get on with it. It's also very late, so yeah, I'm going to bed. My name is Donny Peters. I appreciate you guys for listening, and I'll talk to you on the next one. Jenny
