Hello everyone, Welcome back to a brand new episode of the Poker Go Podcast.
My name is Donnie Peters. I'm joined as always Timothy Duckworth. How
are you, sir? Wow? Full first name today full first name.
Can't say the rest of your name, only first and last. That's all
I got. I'm doing good. I'm doing good. Great. It is
Monday, May. First. We are back at the Poker Go office here
in fabulous Las Vegas, where it seems like they are paving every single road
in the city. I'm Henderson, Summerland. It is wild out there,
so they are. They are fixing the Tropican Overpass on the fifteen, which
is an absolute disaster. I mean, this is a two year fix something
I don't understand why. I can see videos on social media of like towns
in the Netherlands fixing bridges in forty eight hours, and these idiots out here
like it looks like they haven't done anything except create more congestion. That's all
they're doing. It's ridiculous. And like I saw the plan of like what
they're doing with like the actual Tropicano like off ramp once you get onto trop
like how it's supposed to weave and you kind of like crossover to go on
the other side of traffic. It's really weird. There's no way American drivers,
especially those in Las Vegas, who are a disaster to begin with,
are going to be able to figure this out and navigate it correctly. They
can't figure out the rain if it rains. Yea. Then we have right
outside our office they're they're paving this road, which I don't really know why,
but they are. And that's isn't this The Grand Prix is close to
our office but not here? Okay, this is a disaster outside. Yeah,
um, I feel like this complaint. It's just had like a surplus
of money, and I was like, what can we do with it,
Oh, let's pay I don't know. Um, And then of course you
brought up the the F one. The F one has started the paving for
various parts of the Las Vegas Strip and then around the Las Vegas Strip where
the race is going to go. When they're doing it in these big sections.
So now like when we come to work, at least when I come
to work, I get off the fifteen on Flamingo, go over across the
strip and then find our office up there. A little bit past the Horseshoe.
But when you get to like Las Vegas and Flamingo right in front of
like the Cromwell and Caesars on the left hand side, like that whole part
of the strip is or that whole left hand side of the strip is closed
right now because it's gone because they took it out so they could, you
know, put more pavement down, make it all smooth and all that sort
of stuff. So it's basically two way traffic on one side of the strip,
which is just absolute disaster. The airport bypass. I'm going to start
doing that. Yes I did. I did um last week, but it
wasn't that much better because I think everyone's just going that way, so it's
still the disaster. I mean, it's just a disaster everywhere, it really
is. I mean, getting out of the High Stakes Poker Live this week
was it was a mess. On what was that Friday night? Thursday night?
I can't remember Thursday night. That was a mess. But anyway,
that's too much on that, All right, what are we talking about on
this episode? We have an addition of community cards. We are going to
be talking about the High Stakes Poker Live stream, the special Edition Live streaming

So that's gonna pay for your wife's flowers, gonna pay for your upcoming
trip. So congratulations, thank you, thank you. It was It was
a lot of fun. I think I pretty much maxilate redged and then had
pretty smooth sailing to the final I would say three tables and then head kind
of a big bump in the road at the final two tables, but it
was able to come back for it. I ended up rivering trips against a
guy who turned a straight in a blind verse blindhand. After that we get
to the final table. Fountable was hella awkward because you get some big names
on that final table. Yeah, so Giseppie Pantalato won the tournament. Cole
Ferrara Finnish the second. Anthony Spinnell finishes third. Anthony Spinnell was on my
direct left at the final table and Cole Ferrara was on his left and they
had a lot of chips to start, so it was hell. But also
when we got to the final table, I can't remember if it was eight
or nine handed in this tournament, but there was one player that had like
two to four big blinds and he somehow made it through like three rotations.
It was it was unreal. I ended up busting that player. He shoved
the cut off with ACE ten. I reshoved on the button with I think
he shoved three or four big blinds. I reshoved with like ten or eleven
big blinds from the button with ace king suited held up against his ACE ten,
and off we go. Then we get down to like six handed,
and then two guys had like three to five big blinds, and it was
just again, I'm just like stuck in this weird middle ground of like ten
to fifteen bigs, like and it's just hell. So people are kind of
waiting for them to bust. They're not busting, like it's just this whole
thing. Eventually we get down to five. I've handed and Anthony Spinella is
the chip leader and he has twenty two bigs and then the rest of us
have between like ten and twelve. It sounds like the south Point, the
south Point. I know this was just for a WSP circuit ring is what
we're doing here. I end up going out in fifth place, take home
a little bit over sixty three hundred dollars, so not a bad showing.
It was twenty two kap top really wanted that, really wanted that ring,
really wanted to get into the WSP Tournament champions all that sort of stuff.
But the way that things kind of played out, Um, I feel really
good about it. Overall. Thought I played well. There was one time
when I my friends were sweating me um from the well they were watching online
because you know, most of them live here in Nevada or in Las Vegas
specifically, And there was one time when I think Anthony Spinella raised under the
gun, which he had been doing like ninety percent of the time that he
was under the gun. He would just min raise UM. Really felt like
he was just abusing my Big Blind. I jammed on him one time with
uh I think Ace Jack maybe can't remember exactly, but he had King four.
I remember that he called it off. That gave me a double up.
And then later on, when we were five handed, I ended up
jamming heat minrays under the gun. I jammed Big Blind with King Jack off,
but before I clicked like the all in button. I sent to my
friends. I said, this might be a mistake, but I'm doing it
anyway, Like I don't know for whatever reason, like it just felt like
given the situation, like given the chips, like I could not go all
in here because there was there was two people shorter than me, not so
much shorter than me like before, but they were short enough. Of course,
spin All snaps it off with two aces, but I flopped two pair
and get there finally finally got there. Um so yeah, and then I
I went out later on. I forget it how I busted exactly, but
whatever it is, what it is. I think I jammed um small blind
against Spinella's big blind. He snapped it off with like Ace eight or something
and busted me. I think I had King I can't remember exactly what happened,
but that's that, so good score for me. I'm happy. I've
had like four fifth place finishes in a row now. That kicked off a
nice run to fifth place finishes, So you know, here we are and
uh yeah, hopefully manymore to come. I'll take fifth place in every tournament
I play. That'll be greater. That's the plan. All right, We're
gonna get into this High Stakes Poker live stream. So just to kind of
set the table for how this played out, this capped off five previous days
of filming four Season eleven. This live stream that many of you saw.
I'm guessing a large portion of the audience that is listening out there has seen
the High Stakes Poker livestream that took place on Thursday, April twenty seventh.
It was like what six hours, seven hours something like that. So that's
gonna be cut up into episodes and also featured in season eleven. But we
kind of wanted to pull back the curtain give people exposure to what High Stakes
Poker is like when we're filming it. When it comes out, people see,
you know, a forty to fifty minute episode and it's all edited down.
A lot of stuff is cut out, you know, obviously keep the
big stuff in, try and tell a storyline over like those forty five minutes
all that sort of stuff. This was just let turn the cameras on and
let's go. And we had a cast of characters that had been like really
chomping at the bit to just get after it. Burkey, Dug Pole,
Nick Airball like chief among the group that was there. We added LINGI in
a little bit of fuel to the fire. So yeah, so this is
this is what happened. I mean it it got a lot of flak were
before we talk about it. What did you expect from the stream? I
expected exactly what happened, honestly, Like you get these you get these,
for lack of a better term, keyboard warriors, then they get into like
a live setting and not nothing really happens. So like you got a little
bit of um like toughness I guess at the beginning, right at the beginning,
and then it like it really dissipated. Yeah, and like then it
didn't it didn't happen again till the very end when Nick Araball got hammered.
Yeah. I mean that's probably what we should all expect to happen. I
kind of thought maybe there was gonna be a bit more, a bit more
boxing from everybody, but it didn't. Yeah, it didn't turn out the
way I thought. But yeah, I mean, I yeah, I didn't.
I thought that we played eight handed. Ultimately eight handed. Yeah,
it started six handed, and then Rob Young showed up, and then after
he showed up late, Jean Ribera Baloon showed up late as well. So
we ultimately got to eight hand to play with it. And I don't know,
a half hour forty five minutes of starting things. But um, it
should have probably been six handed because that would have forced more action at the
table. Um really would have you know, ramped things up. Um.
It was. It was a lot tighter than I would have expected. Um,
but that's just kind of the nature of the beast. Um. I
think with all the drama involved, I think that actually hinted being, you
know, a loose game that everyone probably wanted. You know, there was
the bounty on Burkey's heads that would have, you know, automatically forced him
to play a little tighter. If we didn't have that part of it,
and maybe if it wasn't even live streamed, it could have been a more
loose game. I mean, I've heard some stories about Burkey playing in some
super high stakes games around Las Vegas, specifically at Aria a Lot, and
how he's kind of an action player and willing to really gamble it up.
But those games are different than this game, and that those games tend to
have some sort of whale in them. Yeah, the whale prefers you to
gamble. That's how you kind of get to play in these high stakes quote
unquote private games. A lot of these games, you if you're a good
player, you have to bring a whale, yeah, or like you're not
going to get in if you don't show that you're going to give action as
well, you know. So like, but this wasn't that game, Like,
there was no like whale in the mix. This was just a bunch
of people that we're having it out on the internet on social media, and
then Brent Hanks wrangled them all together to put him into the setting and put
them on on a livestream and on probably the biggest brand in televised cash game
poker. Yeah for sure. So yeah, So we got Doug Polke,
we got Eric Person, we got Lynji, we got Matt Burkey, Jennifer
Till, Jean Berbalon, Nick Airball, Rob Young. They're playing two hundred
four hundred. There is a five hundred dollar big blind antium. Early on.
We're gonna get into some hands now, just just quickly. So if
you've if you skip that first spoiler warning, I'm giving it to you again
because we're gonna talk about the hands that actually happened. Um So, Doug
Polk, he gets pocket threes. It's a three bet potu and it's seven
four three two diamonds. Tillie abouts twelve k. She's got ace seven,
so she's got top pair, top kicker. Polk MIxS the call with pocket
threes. Nick Airball was also in the hand. He had ace jack,
but he folds. The turn is the ten of hearts, so now it's
seven four three two diamonds. Turns the ten of hearts. Tilly bets twenty
k. Polk calls the river is the ace of diamonds, so it does
bring those diamonds in possible straight draw was completed. Five six was completed on
the flop, and then you know, if for whatever reason he's in there
with the deuce five or somebody's in there with the deuce five, then that's
completed as well. Tillie makes two pair aces up aces and sevens. She
checks Polk bets forty six point three k. Tilly mauls it over for quite
some time. You know, she's doing her whole Tillie thing. She's got
the chucky doll on the table, like it's the whole Jennifer Tilly experience.
It's amazing. She ultimately calls and Doug Polk shows her the set of threes,
and Doug Polk is off and running and like, while this was happening,
Nick Airball, who started with five hundred k like added up five hundred
k more right like, because then they showed the chip counts and it's like,
all of a sudden, he has a million. I'm like, but
he didn't play hand. What's happened? Well, he played this one hand.
I'm wondering if he's thinking. He sees the threes, he sees the
the A seven, He's like, oh, these guys are fools. I'm
putting it on the five hundrek on the table, even though he had everybody
covered as this. Yeah, so I mean, but hey, I think
it's a little flex. Of course, it's a flex. It's Nick Caraball.
But I'm all for it, right, I'm all for it. Um.
Then a big hand comes up where Burkey gets aces and he goes up
against Nick Araball. So Burkey, it folds to Burkey in the small blind.
This is like this hand starts off like how I would not expect,
like folding around the table. Yeah, Like, what's what's going on?
What's going on? Eric person? Yeah, so it folds around the thing.
Funny thing about Eric Person is that it quickly became a parent that.
For as loud and boisterous as Eric Person usually is, he was like fourth
fifth wheel at this table. He mightn't even need a talk everyone else I
know here and he barely did talk. Yeah, um okay, So this
one folds around to Matt Burkey in the small blind. He limps in with
pocket ace. He's got acespays ace of diamonds. Nick Araball checks the eight
four of diamonds. The flop is Jack Sevan deuce with two diamonds. Jack
and deuce were the diamonds on the board. Burkey check raises uh Airball's one
thousand dollars bet to thirty five hundred. Airball makes the call with his flush
Straw turned as the King of Clubs. Burkey leads for ten k, which
was an overbet. Airball makes the call River is the five of diamonds.
Burke bets fifteen thousand. He's got eighty five eighty six thousand behind. I
think he started with a hundred, right yeah. Um, So Airball shoves
Burke, goes into the tank for a while, ultimately calls and he and
he, you know, Airball shows his flush and bust Burkey. So then
there's like this situation where Burke's Burke. I think he threw in one chip
to call, like yeah, he's bet out there, and he threw in
he threw in like an extra one kit to make the call. But then
like he so he's gonna reload, so he starts like reaching into his backpack.
But like he was basically going to take chips out of his backpack and
give them to to Airball because he wanted like the denominations, the smaller denominations
in his stack. And then he was gonna take like all cranberries and be
like and he because he asked how much is it like, and they were
like it's eighty you know, you have eighty six, So He's like okay,
and he was gonna pay it that way. But Airball like starts yelling
about like getting the chips, and he's just like those are my mother f
and chips, and just like reaches over and just grabs Burkey stack and throws
like throws him into his own stack. Yeah, and that's when I was
like, here we go, Yes, this this was we were ready for
this. Yeah, he was. He had pulled out one hundred K and
he was obviously just gonna make some change and uh Abe was like, not
these in mine, you can get changed somewhere else. Let's play. Yeah.
So that's when I thought, you know, things were gonna just go
crazy. Um there. But there was a fun hand nonetheless, I mean,
you know there there was definitely. I think that was the first time
I didn't know what to expect from the audience, okay in terms of like
who they were rooting for, and I think there was I think there was
people coming into this on in both camps. There was the Burkey camp and
there was the Airball camp. I think once you saw this hand and saw
how Airball acted towards Burkey, like in the flesh, a lot more people
became Burkey fans and we're like, I want Burke to win a crap ton
of money off these idiots out there. Like I think that's what the thinking
was. And like reading the YouTube chat like that was like people were like,
I'm rooting for Burkey. I'm rooting for Burkey. I want him to
crush these people, Like that's what he was saying. When I think some
people it was it was Airball, it was Doug Polk and it was Lynji
that was like the group that was like against Burkey even like a little bit
of person online but not so much as the other ones. Um so yeah,
so that's what happened there, and we thought we were like off and
running. We're like here we go, you know. But yeah, um,
then we get a Burkey's got a top two pair against Jennifer Tilly's top
pair also with a flush draw. This is a single race pot. Burkey's
got the ace nine on the ace deuce nine flop. There was two diamonds
on the board. Um it was it was Aca clubs nine of diamonds,
deuce of diamonds. Tilly has ace seven of Simon's Tillie bets one k.
Burkey makes it four K Tillie makes it fifteen, Burkey calls turn is the
four of heart, so a blank. Burkie checks till he bets fifteen K.
Burkey shoves for eighty three K till he calls. But she thought for
a little while. For a while, she thought, for a while.
She put she put her hand up like in front of her face, was
holding it up in her person is sitting right next to her, and person
sees her hand and like immediately slams his hands on his head and is like,
oh my god, what is she doing, like because he obviously sees
top pair in the nut flush draw and he's like, is she really gonna
fold? What the hell's going on? I mean, her instincts were right
here because she was beat you know, and she ultimately calls it off.
They run it twice, Burkey scoops and often running we go Burkey's I mean,
he's about even now on the match after he lost that hand earlier.
This is when Jean Arbert Balonde arrives. He's in seat one then. And
it was also funny. I know I skipped this at the beginning, but
the seat drop they drew. Listen if people were thinking this is fake I
watched the draw happen. Yeah. Paul Campbell puts all the seats down in
the middle of the table. The players walk up one by one, they
pull the seats and John Robert Blonde he ended up in seat one because that's
what was drawn for him, but he wasn't there at the start, so
it started with Doug polking seat two, then Matt Burkey in seat three,
then Nick Airball and seat four. So Burkey sam it felt. It was
like yeah, and everyone was like, this is rig this is Rag.
People are seeing the photos they're seeing obviously watching the live steam like this is
Rag. Nice and then and then right next to Airballs Lynch and it's like
this is Ray. And it's like no, like I watched it happen,
Like this is not rigged, you know. So so yeah, then another
hand comes up where Doug Polk flops another set. He flopped like six or
seven sets, like it was on and later, much later on, he
was bemoaning the fact that he was losing in the game despite the fact that
he flops so many sets. He's like, how am I losing when I'm
flopping all these sets? Because if you're flopping sets, it's a really really
good good day for you at poker, and you should be winning a lot
um. He ends up this one, though, He ends up folding the
river to who made the nut flush, so he defended the strata with pocket
fives. Linji had opened it up with ace. Nine of diamonds becomes jack
five deuce, two diamonds, Polke checks, Linn bets three. K Polk
raises to eleven. Lynn calls the turn is the king of diamonds. Polke
bets nineteen. K Lynn makes the call, rivers the seven of spades,
Polk check. Lynn shoves for double the pot. Polk ends up folding Lyndji.
It sounds like the players viewed her as playing pretty tight overall. You
know, if you listen to the software Y podcast or the Only Friends podcast
Sorry with Matt Burkey Um, and you know, just hearing some of the
other chatter going around the industry, it seems like a lot of the players
felt like Lyndji played pretty tight. So maybe that was, you know,
going into two Ducks thinking, but good on Doug here for for being able
to get away from a set that's not easy. Then you have JRB and
Airball. They get into a big hand. JRB ended up five bet shoving
with pocket queens. Seat him, get it all with the queens. That's
what you do with him? Yeah, did you win any money? No
airball calls with Ace King, they say once, but I also said we
were watching this live, and I also thought they said once. I was
really confused, but they might have said twice, and we just all misunderstood
that. They definitely as once. And then the next time we watched,
they ran out of a flop and then they're running out the second boarders,
so they end up running it twice. JRB wins the first nick Airball wins
the second quick sidebar. Here, I think running it twice should not be
allowed, Okay. I think it should be only odd number times and it's
one, three or five. That's the options, because there needs to be
a winner, okay, And if you want to reduce variants, then go
three times. But somebody's still gonna come out ahead. Likely it's gonna be
two to one in a lot of spots, right, I mean sometimes it'll
be three to zero, you know that sort of thing. But I want
like some blood the chop pot thing like this is like, yeah, it's
a great hand. They put a lot of money in, but ultimately it
just goes back to the same people. So like, what's the point,
you know, I want blood. I think we should make a rule in
Pokego it's one, three or five. That's the rule. Okay, that's
the rule. You could come play on. No Gamblino Future, no gaminow
future. For sure, there should be blood. I mean that's the nature
of the show. Should we just no gamble, no future? Okay,
yes, I agree, Like that's what has to happen. I know they
instituted the Wheel of Painting and all that sort of stuff, where like if
you run it twice and you're ahead technically by the odds, then you have
to go spend the wheel whatever. But no one, three or five that's
my choice. So yeah, then you have Jennifer Tilly doubling up with run
or Runner full house versus Matt Burkey. It was a single race pot on
five four deuce rainbow till he bets two thousand with pocket kings. Burkey check
raises to six thousand. Burkee was in the small blind or sorry in the
big blind. On this hand, he checked race to six thousands, so
three x her bet with jack three so he's got a gutter Linji folded ace
Queen till he makes it seventeen K. Burkey calls turn is the King of
Clubs, putting two clubs on board. It goes check check rivers the four
of clubs so that pairs the board also gives Matt Burkey with the jack three
clubs a backdoor flush. Burkey bets thirty k Linn Sorry, Tilly shoves for
eighty five. Burkey makes the call, sees the bad news full house for
Gentilly ship the pot to her. Chucky is happy. Gentilly was great this
whole episode. Yeah, I like, she's just she's amazing. In every
episode I see her on. It's super fun. This one she brings out
the chucky down she's got, She's got a flag, a five hit chip
in the chucky. It was a lot of fun having her there. Then
you have Doug Polk flopping a flush against Nick Airball's aces. It's twenty seven
K in the middle on a four way flop of King six five all clubs.
Airball's got the Ace of Hearts, Ace of Clubs, and Polk's there
with the Queen ten of Clubs. As we said, flopping a flush airball
bet thirteen K. Polk made the call. JRB and Jennifer Tilly both got
out of the way. Turn is the four of diamonds. Polk check calls
fifty thousand dollars, which was about a pot size bet. River is the
seven of spades. It goes check check Polk obviously looking to pick off airball.
Um some sort of bet there on the River, maybe a check shove.
Polk ends up winning the pot, takes that one down. Polks had
a good day so far. I think he was up like two. I
mean, he lost the one earlier against Lynn when she she had a flush
and he ended up folding. But you know he saved some money on there,
though, no for sure. And then here Doug Polk turns a set
against Burkey's aces and all the set yeah, and ace is just not working
out for Matt Burkey. Um, Burkey's got to acea spades, asa hearts.
He raises on top of Doug Polk's straddle. Polks got four four.
Jrb's in there with the nine five of spades. I don't know why because
it's JRB, and you know he's just having fun. Um. The flop
comes six six three. There's one spade on there. It checks around the
turn is the four of hearts, so that gives Doug Pole a full house
fours over sixes or he bets a four point two k. Burkey calls Jervy
obviously gets out of the way. River is the nine of clubs. Polk
comes out with twenty two thousand. Burkey makes the call, loses with pocket
ass once again, just not his day with the pocket ass. Then the
this is the biggest pot of the stream that comes up. It involves Rob
Young and Doug Polk. But first Rob Young he sat down and he was
kind of like, so Gentilly is wearing this tierra that says the instigator of
chaos. But it was really like Rob Young was the instigator of chaos because
he starts like he starts kind of asking questions about like the feud and stuff
like that, but then he just like goes in on Doug Polk, Like
he goes in on him for the coin flex thing, he goes in on
him for the wearing the patches and all this sort of stubb. He's just
going in on him, And then it was it was hilarious. Rob is
hilarious, right, And I thought that m I thought that Matt Burkey put
it pretty well on the Only Friends podcast that just happened, the post live
stream Only Friends podcast, where he was saying that, you know, Doug
Polk like kind of clowns on this world of high stakes poker, live high
stakes poker, and he's not really in those streets like a Matt Burkey or
Rob Young, a JRB is like those guys are playing these super high stakes
games a lot of times off streams, like we don't see him. We
obviously see these guys on a lot of streams, yes, but they're also
like they're in Ivy's room, they're in Bobby's room, etc. Like you
know, Doug isn't really in that these days. I mean, he was
obviously a very big fixture in the high stakes poker world, don't get me
wrong. But so I think that's like Rob Young was like in a way
trying to like get back at Doug, like, yeah, I'm gonna come
at this guy like see what he's really made of. And you know,
Doug can obviously hold his ground, he's not scared to back down, and
he's got a lot of thick skin that goes on. But but Robin Robkin,
you know, throw him with the best of him, and he was
so he was given it to to Doug Well in like a you know,
a friendly way, but it was it was a lot of fun. So
then this hand comes up between the two of them and Rob Young's got King
Queen of Hearts and Doug Polk ends up having two pair with the jack ten
of hearts. Polk four bet the jack ten of hearts the thirteen k.
Rob Young was in the straddle with the King Queen of Hearts. He ends
up making the call airballs in there with pocket nines. Jrb's got seven six
of hearts, so just hearts everywhere. The pot's fifty three thousand go into
the flop. It's ace ten seven with one heart the ace of hearts on
the board. Polk bets seventeen thousand. Rob Young makes the call, the
other two players get out of the way. Jack is spades on the turn
that nails two pair for Doug Polk, but gives broadway to Rob Young.
Um, it goes check check, and then the rivers the three of diamonds
or the river just blanks off. Rob Young checks, getting a little sneaky
sneaky there. Polk bets fifty thousand, five hundred. Young comes in with
a race to two hundred thousand hulk, molds it over for quite some time,
ultimately makes the call, sees the bad news, and that's like this
is the big pot that changed the entire night for Doug Polk because he had
been winning up until this point. Then he loses this pot. I mean
he lost what two hundred and fifteen to twenty on this hand alone. Yeah,
so that really set Doug Polk back. I mean, listen watching when
Rob Young played the no gamble in the Future million Dollar Cash Game. I
think you got to fold the river here, like, I mean, it's
he plays pretty close to the vest overall. Yeah. So I mean there's
there's a lot of two pairs that beat you. Obviously set some sets,
and then the straits it was like a snapcheck, like instant. Yeah.
I mean, I but this this also probably goes back to, you know,
maybe Doug thought that there was some kind of additional dynamic because Rob had
been coming at him, So maybe he's gonna try and bluff him and then
you show him the bluff and it's this whole thing, or who knows.
I think Rob hadn't really wanted anything any major pots up to that point.
No, he'd done more talking than point and chips for sure. But this
was the biggest part of the night four hundred and eighty seven thousand, and
it went Rob Young's a way. Um. Then there's a hand where Doug
Polk again with pocket threes again makes a set. He forces a fold from
Jennifer Tilly who had top parrot. Was a good fold by her? Um
you had Lynji was going with Ace King up against Rob Young's pocket jacks forever
on that twice and was chop I believe, yes, sleeve that was a
chop. Yeah, they see one three or five, and then we get
some blood and now this like weird thing shows up where Andrew Robol arrives like
so he walks into the set and he says like, I have sorry,
I have to take him away talking about Rob Young to go play another game.
Yeah bring the yeah, but and he says like I can't play in
that game unless I bring rob So Rob has to come with me. So
but then Rob like gets up from the table and robos like, I'm gonna
play your stack for like two hands or something. So he sits down immediately
starts getting in hand. But I think they immediately negotiate like am I playing
your stack? Well no, They're like he's playing the hand. And then
they're like they're like talking to like so is this my money or your money?
Like whose money is it? Like can I just take over? You
know, Everyone's like they're like is this okay? And they're like, yeah,
it's okay. And then immediately like robols like raised like I think he
had jacked. I think he adjacked into it on both hands he played.
I think he you know, I think he's squeezed. He's like squeezed from
like the small blind or something. Yeah, So that was just like a
little funny thing that happened. Um, I think he won the first one
that he played, and then the second one he like checked the river and
ultimately lost it or whatever. But it was still like the King High.
It was just a funny dynamic of how how that happened. You guys can
obviously watch it on the stream. Um, you had person with pocket Jack's
getting involved against Doug Polk who had King ten on the Queen nine eight Jack
nine board. That was a good one to Jereby. Pocket six is doubles
versus Airballs a bass. Let's just run a wine. Okay, So this
hand this is like what the they so something we do when we take high
stakes pokers We draw for hands. Okay. So at this point in the
night, it's like, I don't know what time it wasn't it was pretty
nine forty five or so. Nick Airball is hammering wine absolutely. I mean
he's like three bottles of wine deep chugging wine. Not only is he chugging
his wine, he's chugging Lyn's wine like he he would just chug. He
would literally chug his glass of wine, put it down on the table and
then pick hers up and chug that like it was. It was unreal.
And now you start to see like you're like the wheels are about to fall
off, like here we go ready. You know this is like he's talking,
he's going at Burkey. Then there's this fucking blow up where like he
just starts yelling and screaming at Burkey about like he wants to play bigger,
but Burkey's like, we can play it bigger, like well, you know
all this sort of stuff, and you know, Burkey's like he's being great,
he's being very professional, very like sober, not only because he is
sober, but like sober in his attitude, you know, and like and
then Doug Polks like listen Matt objectively, like you have the best of it,
and Matt's like, I know, okay, Like I know. So
this is also let's remind people that this is fresh off Matt winning three hundred
k off off air Ball a few days earlier. Results world. Yeah,
so so now air Ball is saying he wants to play like five K,
ten K and all this sort of stuff, and you know, then there's
this whole thing about like Matt's like, I'll play you, like we don't
have to play this hour thing, like we can just play, like you
know, when you come into town, you can just call me whatever.
It's this whole thing, and air Ball just like loses his mind, like
absolutely loses his mind. Starts he's standing up, He's screaming at Burkey,
he yells at him. He like storms off the set. He's like,
I'm going to get more f and wine. Like what, it's this whole
thing. So he comes back to the table. They draw off her hands.
I think they drew five hands at the end of the night. Um
the first two or whatever. But then this big hand comes up where I
believe they were also doing a round of straddles, and I want to say
it was it was two four eight sixteen was on, That's what I want
to say. And I was. I was actually on the floor. I
walked out to like see the final hands and not wasn't watching the stream at
the end. So if I'm wrong there, forgive me. So anyway,
Airball like he's got like all his chips are kind of like starting to go
everywhere. Like he's got a lot of chips. He's got over a million
dollars on the table, and like now that he like he's drunk, there's
a wine glass on the table like or on the rail and like he's just
chugging wine. He's got like the chips are kind of falling all over the
place. So there's like this conversation that happens where it involves twenty five K,
and I think that there was like trying to be like some sort of
side bet happening or something. But then Airball like has a twenty five K
chip like in front of him, and so then they're like, so like
are you are you raising a twenty five He's like, yeah, twenty five
k whatever, but like he wasn't like originally on a race to twenty five
K, but then it changed and he did. It was like a weird
conversation. If you listen to it on the stream, you can pick up
on it. And he's obviously got aces, so it's like one of those
things where like I'm just gonna act like a drunk idiot. Yeah, twenty
five K whatever, like not a big deal. Folds to Jrby, who's
got one hundred and forty one hundred and fifty K. Yeah, Jeremy's got
pocket sixes, and Jeremy's like I'm all in, gets back to Airball,
snaps him off like you know, beats him in the pot there. Nick's
like whatever he wants, and then Airballs are sorry. Jereby is like disgusted
that this just happened, like like he got got in a way, and
so he's like just just once, just once, yea, And of course
drills a six on the flop, so then it's like here we go.
So three hundred K goes Jereby's way and air Balls like annoyed. You can
tell he's like extra annoyed, like, you know, I'm drunk, like
this happened, like I can't believe that that I got him where I wanted
him too. And then he just reels of six and of course he wanted
to runner once, so it was even worse. So now I mean,
he still got like a million dollars, right, I think. Then there's
one hand. There's one hand that happens. And then the last hand comes
up and involves Jennifer Tilly and Nick Airball. So Jennifer Tilly's got pogget jacks.
Nick Airball has ace deuce, He's got the Ace of hearts and the
deuces spades duces spades is going to matter, so they get involved in this
hand. The flop is jack nine five, and the turn jack nine five
is spades okay, and the turn is the Queen of Hearts till he obviously
flops top set and doesn't have a spade, and then Airball has just the
deuces spades and then the aces an overcard. On the turn jack nine five
all spades turns the Queen of Hearts, Airball checks Tillie bets fifteen k.
Airball bets fifty k. Then he says something like can I take it back
or something like something like that, and they're like, no, you can't
take it back, like and then but then he like takes back like the
bricks and like puts. He puts chips, so like one of the other
is what he does until he's like in the tank. She's she's like thinking
about what she's gonna do, and then she shoves for one hundred and fifty
seven thousand. So now Airball is like full till drunk air Ball, Like
chips are all over the table, like the chips are on top of his
cards, like you can't see his cards. He turns over the deuce of
spades at one point, I have a flush, yeah, he kept saying,
I have a flush. Yeah, I have a flush. I have
a flush, like over and over and like she's wrong, he didn't.
She's like just sitting there and then and then he says to her, if
you can show me like one card that isn't a spade, I'll call or
something like that. And then she's like, oh, I don't know what
to do, like you know, gen Tilly, you know, she's just
sitting there like, oh, that's kind of weird. And then she's like
no, She's like no, and mind you, Jen Tilly has to go.
She has dinner reservations at Aria, and I guess the reservation is hard
to get and they keep it and you can't be late and all this sort
of stuff. So she's she like wants to be on time. Nick's in
the tank for like multiple minutes, and everyone's like, what is happening.
This is the absolute last hand. So the other players at the table are
like they're standing up. Jereby's like, Jarby walks over like he's got his
mic off. He gives me a fift pound. He's out the door like
he's gone, like his chips are racked up, like you know. Doug
Polk's like walking around. Joey Ingram had shown up and is there and like
you know, Lyndji's coming over, giving Joey a hug, like it's this
whole thing. Mind you. Airball's got one. He got the Dudze of
Spades, Like first he turns it over then like he's he like keeps like
fumbling with his chips and like the Duce of Spades kind of gets covered.
His other card is like buried under his chips somewhere. Then Doug is like
kind of walks off the camera view, but he talks to Paul Campbell and
Paul's like telling him about the Jennifer Tilly dinner thing. And then more he
comes like out this is like behind the scenes, behind the scenes. More
he comes like running out to me. He's like, he's like this is
absurd, like he's been tanging forever, like this is like what's going on
like and I'm like, dude, I don't know what's happening like whatever.
So, now like everyone's standing there, like is an Airball gonna make a
decision? Air Ball says something like she can leave, everyone can leave,
and I think Paul said no, like she can't leave. She has to
play her hand like whatever. So then Doug walks back onto the set and
calls the clock on Airball and he's like, listen, she has a dinner
to go to. Out of respect for her, I'm calling the clock.
It's been way too long, like you know, So this whole thing happens.
He ends up folding. Gent's non flush. Yeah, his non flush.
He's only got the duce of spades. Um. He ends up folding.
I thought he was gonna call Honestly, I really did think he was
just and like if you're if you're gentilly, like, don't you show like
one of the jackson. But I think she might. I think she might
have believed that he did have a flush, like you know, say the
four Duce of Spades or something, and she actually just wants him to fold.
So I don't. I guess, Yeah, it comes down to your
read on if you think he had a flush. I feel like he's a
pretty way. He was playing pretty honest. He's snapping you with a flush,
snapping yeah, yeah, come on, yeah, you have to factory
And how many wines deep busy? A lot? So a lot? Okay,
so she wins that hand. The result is um Eric person somehow wins
one hundred and ninety K despite like not really being involved that much at all.
Lenji one hundred sixty K. Burkey was down twenty two thousand, poked
down thirty four thousand jib he was down one hundred thousand and an airball ended
up down one hundred and twelve thousand, So overall, like, I guess,
what did you think of the game everything that played out? Like obviously
the social media chatter like what are your big takeaways from everything a little underwhelmed
because, like we touched on at the start, I thought there was gonna
be a bit more. You got blood, You're like high Stakes Poker Blood
Edition. Whether it's like actually in the streets with the cords or if it
was just them boxing in each other. Thought there's gonna be something. We
didn't really get that, but we have to remember that, you know there
it was high stakes. You know, people don't want to just stack off.
I thought the game was There was obviously a lot of highlights, some
low lights. We had some big Handsum. Also the first time we ever
did something like this when it comes to the High Stakes Poker brand, so
we weren't really sure what we're going to expect, especially with these players.
Um, if we could run it back again, I'd probably get rid of
JRB felt he felt like the odd man out. I don't know, man,
I think JRP is like a mainstay. No, but we had JRB,
Tilly and Young and they were kind of I think you probably arrit a
LINGI no, but she was part of that whole. She felt like she
came in later. That's fine, but yeah, eight handed made a little
bit tougher. I think I think you mentioned Burkey mentioned on the podcast that
six or seven hand would have been more ideal. I would have forced him
to play more hands. Yeah, you can't just sit there and fall.
But hey, like I think we're going to touch on something else coming up,
but like, this is kind of what the people wanted. I mean,
yeah, this is what the people want. Um. I mean,
listen, there's been a lot of love out there, deservedly so for Hustler
Casino Live. I mean this was kind of our in a way, Hustler
Casino Live version of High Stakes Poker. Now you can try and make the
argument that we tainted the High Stakes Poker brand. I don't think we did,
because one, we don't have to do this again, okay, Two
we're just trying something. I mean again, high Stakes Poker has always been
seen in edited episodes. Yeah, we could have filmed this edited it,
and like you would have never known that it was like what it was exactly,
you know, like we allowed people to go behind the curtain and see
exactly what happens when we film these games. Sometimes they're incredibly boring and we
struggle to make episodes. Yeah, sometimes they're absolutely out of control and we
struggled to make sense of what just happened, like you know, and sometimes
they're just absolutely amazing. Like so, I don't think that we did wrong
there. I think that you know, a lot of people out there,
like the very deadicated poker Go audience, has an idea of what high stakes
poker is, and to them, this wasn't that. I mean, myself
included, like I will say objectively, like this didn't look like high stakes
poker. But we did it and it happened, and I think, you
know, going forward would be changed some things, probably, you know,
I mean, but I think it's worth doing because it's what the people wanted.
And you know, going to what you were saying, how we're going
to touch on that, Brad Willis for poker dot Org wrote what I thought
was an absolutely great article. I mean, listen, the headline is like
did poker Go just saved Poker TV or something like that, which I think
you can ignore and like actually read the cunts. Yeah you have to read
it. Yeah, you have to read it. I Mean the headline seems
like a little bit of propaganda, but the content within is very true and
like Brad gave a very honest opinion that like it was at times very cringe,
but he also couldn't look away. But at the end of the day,
this is what the market wanted. Yeah, Like people are constantly saying,
like, we want more live stuff from you guys. We want more
live streams, more cash games, more freestuff, blah blah blah. And
we gave all of that, and on top of it, we put the
players in the game that we are at the topic of conversation across every outlet,
every social media thing like all that, Like, okay, and did
it work out? Maybe maybe not. I don't know. That's for you
know, different viewers to decide. I mean, three hundred thousand people have
watched this, I would say, yeah, it kind of has. I
think I think the numbers, you know, kind of stand for themselves.
We had great viewership. You know, people certainly tuned in. You know.
That said, we also kind of understand, like we understand who we
are and we can adjust going forward. But I think it was something that
like I'm happy that we took the risk. I'm happy that we tried it,
you know, tried something a little bit different, tried it with the
High Stakes Poker brand. Like my initial suggestion is like, if we do
something like this, maybe we do it under the no gam in the Future
brand next time, Like maybe, but I would, you know, but
still it's it's still going to be the same bananas shit on TV. I
mean, so I don't know. I mean, I thought it was good,
I thought it was fun, I thought it was entertaining overall, and
and like you know, like Brad wrote in his article, it ultimately comes
down to the market. So while you can have an opinion whether or not
this was a successful live stream that we did, okay, you know,
independent of the views whatever. Like if if you think, like the feedback
is too negative that we failed, okay, fine, that's your own opinion.
I get it. But also understand that, like last week, there
was a massive conversation across all of poker social media, you know, specifically
on poker Twitter, about how like games aren't entertaining enough. We need to
be you know, needs to be more entertaining, you need less justin Bontamo's
and Chris Brewers of the world. And then it was this whole thing,
well you need to pay the players and this whole like it was a whole
thing. So then we give you pretty much nothing but entertainment. It was
like ninety percent entertainment and ten percent actual poker. And then it's like,
no, this is not what we want either, So like, hey,
market, decide what you want. Like you know, you guys can dictate
what you want. So I think it's also the case that like, and
I think if I think if we talked to Hustler Casino Live about this sort
of thing, there is certainly very different audiences between like Poker Go and YouTube,
yes, which we understand, okay, and I bet you that Hustler
Casino Live would understand it, etc. Like I know, social media was
rabbit as all heck, you know, ripping this game and saying that it
was unwatchable on whatever they want to say. The people on YouTube seem to
love it. Yeah, absolutely well, I mean it was you know,
it was madness. So I thought ultimately we kind of needed to give the
people what they want shout out Jalen Rose and then you know, let the
let things fall as they may. I think we did that. So I
thought it was good. And if you haven't read Brad Willis's article over on
poker dot Org, I would highly encourage you to do so and I know
it sounds like that's only coming from me and coming from Tim because we work
for Poker Goro and the title is you know, poker go could have just
saved poker television. I'm telling you skip the headline and read the content.
They also read another one from Lee Jones today, from Chaos to Redemption.
He was in the YouTube street, so he's in eleven premier. Yes,
I haven't read that yet, but I haven't loaded out ready to read.
Yeah. So there's a lot of good stuff out there, um, a
lot of good content that you guys can check out, a lot of good
people that are able to put ideas, thoughts into words. Um Brad Wills's
piece is certainly that. So you know again, I would check check it
out over on poker dot org if you haven't all ready. All right,
sticking in kind of the high stakes world, we got high Stakes Dual four
coming up. We announced it during the stream, had a press release last
week, all that sort of stuff. Friday, May fifth, that's a
few days from now. For the first time ever, we're doing an undercard
for high Stakes Duel for a high stakes duel match. So this undercard is
gonna be kind of just a one and done thing. Ye, kind of
trying to you know, grease the gears a little bit, get things flowing
for the For the main event, the undercard is gonna feature Shaan Deeve and
Mike Madisow. Seems pretty awesome. Ten thousand dollars each, one and done
match winner takes twenty k. Love it. It's gonna be available on poker
Grow and also well, I believe on the pokego YouTube channel for free.
Right, yes, correct, this one's just out there. That's Friday,
May fifth, and then on Monday May eighth and Tuesday May ninth. Round
one and round two Daniel and Grani versus Eric Person. The first one is
one hundred thousand dollars match. Each person puts up fifty k the round two.
So these players have actually agreed to play round one and round two like
you know, not normally where it's like round one the loser has you know,
first right to rematch all that sort of stuff. These guys just said,
no, we'll do both the first two rounds. The second one is
going to be one hundred k a person two hundred k match, and then
depending on how it shakes out, we'll see where we go from there.
We have new rules for high stakes duel where if you win two consecutive matches
at any point during the duel, you are crowned the champion. So let's
say Daniel nagran You wins round one and round two, he's high Stakes Tool
four champion. Done, see you later. He's got the belt. He
can take it home, put it in his trophy case. If Eric person
wins both round one and round two, same thing, he can take that
belt, you know, rocket wherever he goes. If nigran You wins round
one and then person comes back and wins round two, that means nigran You
can rematch four round three. If nigran You does rematch, we'll get person
versus Nagran You again. If nigron You doesn't rematch, then we'll get person
versus somebody else for round three. Okay, so that's how that's gonna work
out. So again, we got Friday, May fifth, the undercard match
ten thousand dollars apiece, Shawndee versus Mike mattis out. I'm sure that's going
to be wild. And then on Monday, May eighth, round one on
Verse person. Tuesday May ninth, round two the grandni Verse person round one
and round two of the actual main card that's going to be on Poker Grow
behind the paywall. Um, so sign up to Poker Grow now. If
you aren't already a subscriber, I'm sure many of you are, and of
course you can get into that uh that dream seat contest if you if you're
an annual subscriber, you you're excited for this, uh, this high stakes
tool. It might be weirdly more excited for the undercard than the Yeah,
it'd be interesting to see Deep versus madis how they have some history some sol
I want to see how much weight has Deep has lost already? Yep.
I want to see, like Mike madisow like, is he gonna be the
mouth? Is he gonna be quiet? Mike? What's he gonna be?
I hope that. I hope he's the mouth, because sure they got some
history where Deep slow rolled him. I'm Poker Night in America, so they
got that whole thing. So the grand person have no history at all with
each other. So that's why you know, I'm gonna be very interested to
see how eric person reacts to the Grander. Is it going to be like
when he took on Phil Helm within the Polkago heads up showdown where he just
wanted to lay you know, he wanted to give him the double birds.
Is he just gonna come out as the as the High Stakes Steel heal,
So it's gonna be interesting. All these guys are gonna play nice. We'll
see what, uh see what kind of happens with there, and the fact
that we're going to double down straight away and play around to the next night.
He's actually good, I think, yeah, I mean at a lot
of content, um you know, on Poker Go. So I'm excited to
see where this uh where this High Stake Steel foregoes overall. Like I said,
I think I'm weirdly more looking forward to d verse mats up, but
I think is gonna GRANDI Verse person is going to be interesting in his own
right, as you mentioned, like they don't really have any kind of backstory,
so you know, I don't I don't think person's going to go into
this like he went into that first time he played Phil hellmouth and being like
throwing up the double birds, calling this guy a bitch, like all that
sort of stuff. Like, I don't think that's gonna happen here. You
know, it's probably not gonna work on the Granow of course, definitely.
They do have a little bit of experience playing on Season ten of High Stakes
Poker, but they never really got into it or anything. So we'll just
see how this plays out overall that maybe this is the start of kind of
Nagran news, like big turnaround momentum shift going into the summer. We'll see.
Yeah, you know, I've been on record saying I think he's gonna
have a huge summer. I guess if I just say that every summer until
it finally happens, like I'm gonna eventually win, you know, just double
down. But but yeah, all right, so a little bit of a
special announcement here, Tim and I are going to try something. We have
no idea what this is gonna work, but we're gonna try it. We're
gonna do a takeover of a nightly poker tournament in town. And what we
mean by that is we would like all of you listeners out there who are
available might be around Las Vegas in town for the World Series of Poker,
etc. To come out and play with us. You know, we're not
like officially partnered with you know, the venue or whatever. We're just gonna
show up. Hopefully we boost some numbers, we have a good time among
us, Maybe we'll get a last longer, maybe we'll have some merch to
give away. We don't know yet. We'll announce kind of all those details
in the coming weeks. But you guys hear us talk about this tournament all
the damn time. Tim is a champion of this tournament. Correct The South
Point Nightly one hundred and fifty dollars deep stack, So they have this tournament
a couple times a week. But on Wednesday, May thirty first, the
tournament starts at six pm. One hundred and fifty dollars deep stack, fifteen
thousand dollars guaranteed prize pool. You get twenty five thousand and hips. There

going to be their plane. Hopefully we're gonna invite some others from around the

a point. We need to get him in there. Jeff Platt for sure.
I don't know if Brent Hanks slept all the way across town to get

people in there. And of course, most importantly, it's just really for
Tim and I to hang out with the Poker Girl podcast family. Come out,
hang out with us. We'll do some fun stuff, some lasts longers
or whatever. We'll get in there, we'll mingle with the South Point crowd

join Tim and getting the medallion. And I would hope that you don't sell
it if you do win it. So again, that's Wednesday, May thirty.
First, we're basically doing it like the World Series of Poker kicks off
on May thirtieth officially, but the first two days are kind of like,
not much as going on. We don't have to do anything. Our streaming
doesn't start till June one, so maybe with some people coming into town,
some more people can come out and play this tournament. On Wednesday, May
thirty verse again, that starts at six pm. We'll we'll you know,
talk about it, you know, every episode up until then, and yeah,
hopefully that's a lot of fun, So hope we'll get you something.
Hopefully some of you guys there family pot you obviously got something. Play that
music. Okay, we'll play the music. Let's go. It's everybody.
What do you got? School's here in Las Vegas they do this APEX fundraiser.
So mey used to be, you know, you have to run like
thirty six laps and you sponsor your kids per lap. Now it's changed a
little bit. It's it's obstacles, I guess. So my son had his
APEX fund run last week, and you know, I got a lot of
people to donate to him e race, you know, somewhere near like four
hundred dollars. So you know, I sponsored him two dollars an obstacle.
Most I could lose or not lose. Most I could donate was, you
know, seventy two dollars. Anyway, Thursday comes and I go to his
school. I'm going to watch him partake. He was pumped. He had
a headband on. He was practicing the night before, jumping from the couches,
like doing obstacles because he didn't really know, you know, what was
going on. So he's there. Basically, you do a lap and on
the lap there are four obstacles, and once you do one lap, all
the like the volunteer parents mark off on their t shirt four ticks, So
four ticks, four laps, we'll call it four obstacles. Sorry, And
then you know he raised his money. He starts off, he's leading his
class or all the first grades. Actually he does three laps, so he's
earned twelve obstacles. And he comes over to me to get a little little
drink. He hasn't got anything marked off because he gets to the line where
the volunteers are ticking the checkboxes and he can't wait. He just wants to
keep running, so he just runs through them. And I'm like, buddy,
you have to go get the lines crossed up. He say, okay,
okay, okay. Anyway, he ends up running like twenty laps,
but he maxes out of thirty thirty six obstacles. But on one of these
obstacles, there's two racetracks on this On one of these obstacles, it's a
little like climb up the top of a like bouncy castle, then you slide
down. And all the warnings from the host were just like, hey,
when you get to this obstacle, you have to be careful climb up and
then he has to slide down on your butt because you don't want to hurt
people. And I saw some chaos. I saw some heads get sat on
everything. So when Caleb's coming to this first upbstacle, he climbs up,
and you know, he's a good boy, I expect him to slide down
on his butt. No, right, Summers sold down, does this flip,
rolls over, lands on his feet, starts running and I have photos
of this. I posted them on my Instagram. He gets up, he
starts running and he looks at me with a smile, just like, yeah,
I'm not listening to you guys. Anyway, he did his He probably
did twenty laps. He raised, you know, three four hundred dollars one
of these prizes. He absolutely had a ball, loved it, and yeah
he's he's absolutely chaotic six year old. So you've got four years and you're
gonna have the same thing. I mean, I already have a chaotic two
year olds. So I mean, I don't know what do you want me
to tell you? She's out of control, absolutely out of control. But
it's great, it's awesome. Um, So yeah, that's I think that's
all we got. I don't have a family pot um, So yeah,
let's get excited next time. Yeah, High Stakes Duel Friday, Monday and
Tuesday. UM. Tim mentioned the giveaway or sorry. We talked about the
