Yeah, we're not very good a name shush shrecked. I 84 00:06:31,319 --> 00:06:36,720 don't know how you got shush sharrect. Kurt. If you see Tim, 85 00:06:38,399 --> 00:06:42,560 God give him trouble for that. I mean, Kurt shush erect. I 86 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,120 can't wait till he tells you that you got it right and I got it 87 00:06:45,199 --> 00:06:47,360 wrong. But anyway, continue on. So we sold Kurt earlier this week. 88 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,399 He's like, any has I'm like, no coming coming. Um He's 89 00:06:50,399 --> 00:06:54,079 like, okay, I'm playing tomorrow or something. Came back today. It 90 00:06:54,199 --> 00:06:57,199 was first break of the main event, Jos. The break just went started. 91 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,560 He comes over to our kind of area and he says, hey, 92 00:07:00,639 --> 00:07:03,480 Tim, have you got those hats? And I say, oh, actually 93 00:07:03,519 --> 00:07:06,319 they came in today. I'm gonna I can walk to the shop after this 94 00:07:06,399 --> 00:07:10,879 break and get one, and he goes, please do I only have twenty 95 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,600 thousand? Break ended went to the shop, got the bucks, the hats, 96 00:07:14,639 --> 00:07:16,360 brought it back, walked past his table. He told me, you 97 00:07:16,399 --> 00:07:19,720 know I'm on this table, delivered him a hat. He puts it on 98 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:24,040 straight away, just puts it on, and someone of the table, as 99 00:07:24,079 --> 00:07:26,959 I'm walking away says, is that the lucky hat? So he's obviously had 100 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,399 told them this stought some kind of story. So he had twenty thousand, 101 00:07:30,439 --> 00:07:33,439 what do we start the day at? Well, the starting level in day 102 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:40,360 two, um, it was it's four hundred eight hundred. He had twenty 103 00:07:40,439 --> 00:07:42,680 k, so he already lost half his stack. Gave him the hat. 104 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:48,800 This guy bagged two hundred and eighteen thousand. Every time I walked around, 105 00:07:49,199 --> 00:07:53,040 the hat was on his head. He didn't take it off. From twenty 106 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,920 k to two hundred and eighteen thousand, that's a damn lucky hat. And 107 00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:01,160 I spoke to Kurt, asked Hi about his day and and the whole hat 108 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:05,519 situation than the luckiness behind it. Now, Kurt, they say that a 109 00:08:05,639 --> 00:08:07,839 lucky hat is worth a thousand dollars, But to you, I think it's 110 00:08:07,839 --> 00:08:11,680 worth two hundred and eighteen thousand, because you just put two hundred and eighteen 111 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:15,439 thousand in your day. Two D chip bag. But I want to start 112 00:08:15,519 --> 00:08:18,120 with You came over to me in first break. You said, I've already 113 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,560 seen you earlier this week, I believe. You said, have you got 114 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:24,439 any of the lucky hats? I said no, but it is break, 115 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,800 I'm going to run to the shop get some, and I gave you one. 116 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,839 And what did you tell me? How many chips did you have at 117 00:08:28,879 --> 00:08:31,920 that point? I told you I was down to twenty thousand chips and I 118 00:08:31,039 --> 00:08:35,519 needed the hat quickly before I ran out. So I went and got the 119 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:39,000 hat. I came over, I delivered a hand delivered to you, and 120 00:08:39,039 --> 00:08:41,799 then I think I heard the table say something like, oh, is this 121 00:08:41,919 --> 00:08:43,639 the lucky hat you've been talking about? So I'm assuming you've been talking about 122 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,120 it. Yeah, I was saying I needed the lucky hat, and it 123 00:08:46,279 --> 00:08:50,759 showed up. You gave me the lucky hat. And in that first hour 124 00:08:50,799 --> 00:08:52,440 and a half after I got the hat, I went from twenty to eighty 125 00:08:54,799 --> 00:08:58,480 and then went back down to forty at some point later, but worked my 126 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:03,320 way all the way back up to one six and then um and then just 127 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:07,240 two minutes before the end of the session, I ended up getting all in 128 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,120 against somebody else ace King versus Queens, and the ace King came through for 129 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:15,600 one hundred K pots, so that got me to two hundred. I think 130 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,799 it's safe to say that this hat is very lucky. I'm gonna guess that 131 00:09:18,919 --> 00:09:22,039 you are not taking it off when you come back tomorrow, and I'm wearing 132 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:26,519 the hat the rest of the series. Definitely. How else did everything go 133 00:09:26,639 --> 00:09:28,080 for you today? You know, a pot from obviously those few hands you 134 00:09:28,159 --> 00:09:31,600 discussed. But it's a long day. Just sit here and play poka. 135 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:33,440 You know, ten hours of poker play, It's it's tough on anyone. 136 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:37,120 Yeah, it was a long day. It was. It was the the 137 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:41,039 group was good that we had um. I think most people were playing pretty 138 00:09:41,039 --> 00:09:43,840 straightforward. We didn't have anybody today that was like bombing pots left and right 139 00:09:43,879 --> 00:09:46,960 and stuff. So it was mostly just if you had cards, and if 140 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,519 you had lucky cards that they came through for you, and most importantly a 141 00:09:50,639 --> 00:09:52,679 lucky hat. If you had the lucky hat, well that brought you the 142 00:09:52,759 --> 00:09:56,320 lucky cards. I mean, the hat's just the hat runs hot. I 143 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,480 don't know. I think I'm gonna have to wear it, wear it tomorrow 144 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,799 because I haven't been running hot for the first two days, but I think 145 00:10:01,799 --> 00:10:03,759 I'm about to throw the hat on. Did you wear the other hat you 146 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:07,639 bought? I did on day one? How was your Day one? What 147 00:10:07,759 --> 00:10:11,200 do you give the hat? Out of ten? That hat? I mean, 148 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,559 it was fine, it was fine. Well, you know the thing 149 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:18,440 is, remember your hat got stolen. It did get stolen. Now you 150 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:22,240 actually get a new hat. So maybe the new hat you get is the 151 00:10:22,399 --> 00:10:26,159 new lucky hat. I think I'm gonna wear the hats im and we'll see. 152 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,639 We'll see. You could just you know, take them on and off. 153 00:10:28,799 --> 00:10:31,799 Yeah, I'm definitely well. The Day one hat that I was wearing 154 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:35,840 it was a corduroy World Series of Poker hat with a cool logo. I 155 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:39,360 liked the hat. It did cost me forty six dollars, but whatever, 156 00:10:39,759 --> 00:10:43,840 I kept flipping it frontwards and backwards, you know, I mean, listen, 157 00:10:43,879 --> 00:10:46,039 I made it through and I'm moving on to day three. Basically you 158 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:50,480 can say it's lucky your bag chips, I know, so you know, 159 00:10:50,519 --> 00:10:52,120 actually went to this kind to complain. I went to the store today because 160 00:10:54,039 --> 00:10:56,039 you know, as you recall, I finished fifth in the WSP Media event 161 00:10:56,080 --> 00:11:00,759 for one hundred and fifty dollars in rewards credit's amazing. But I remember the 162 00:11:01,039 --> 00:11:03,600 remember the gentleman with the hoodie, I mean called him out on the podcasts. 163 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:05,519 Yeah, it's the same I wanted. I was like, oh, 164 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,840 I was in the tournament today. By the way, let's see how much 165 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:15,200 this hoodie is or whatever it's called a police Yeah, they only have double 166 00:11:15,399 --> 00:11:18,320 XLS or triple XL so I was like, all right, that there goes 167 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:22,240 that dream. So how much was it? I didn't even look at the 168 00:11:22,279 --> 00:11:24,799 price because they only had the triple xls, so they're kind of useless to 169 00:11:24,919 --> 00:11:28,919 me.

The previous record that stood 180 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:11,639 for seventeen years eight thousand, seven hundred and seventy three entries from two thousand 181 00:12:11,639 --> 00:12:16,360 and six, the year that Jamie Gold won it, So it's been a 182 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:20,360 while. Last year I think was eight thousand, six hundred and sixty three, 183 00:12:20,039 --> 00:12:22,559 so it was a right an it was one hundred off the record, 184 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,480 or right around one hundred off the record on hundred and ten, whatever it 185 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:28,159 is, so they got very close, ultimately didn't do it this year. 186 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,840 Absolutely ridiculous how big this thing has gotten. As I mentioned, more than 187 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:39,360 ninety three million dollars in the prize pool. It's pretty pretty ridiculous to think 188 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:45,320 how big this tournament has gotten. They also released the payouts. So ten 189 00:12:45,399 --> 00:12:50,559 thousand and forty three entries I think it's ninety three hundred dollars goes into the 190 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:54,759 prize pool. Seven hundred all rake I think, yes, right, or 191 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,360 it's ninety four and six. I can't remember one way or the other. 192 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,639 That's what it is. So there was ninety three million, three hundred ninety 193 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:07,279 nine thousand, nine hundred dollars in the prize pool. The top one thousand, 194 00:13:07,399 --> 00:13:15,399 five hundred and seven places will be paid first place twelve point one million 195 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:20,879 dollars, second place six point five million. How would you like to play 196 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,720 heads up for five point six million? Ten? As I keep putting in 197 00:13:24,759 --> 00:13:28,919 a group, you do keep putting this. It's really a six point one 198 00:13:28,039 --> 00:13:31,480 million heads so much because supposedly this bracelet is worth half a million dollars. 199 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:37,960 I'll say this, the bracelet is the best wistmin event bracelet I've ever seen. 200 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:45,240 It's the same as last the horseshoe element to it looks so awesome. 201 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,240 It looks so good. I mean, it's it just looks so sexy. 202 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:52,759 Can I have a quick quick tangent? Go ahead? Following on from yesterday's 203 00:13:52,759 --> 00:13:54,919 podcast The Dinner the serving Plate, Well, I tried to tip away one 204 00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:00,360 hundred dollars. I showed you. We found it, We found the serving 205 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,399 play it's fifty dollars. There you go. So you're gonna save yourself money 206 00:14:03,399 --> 00:14:07,279 by just buying it online or whatever? Yeah, exact course, all right, 207 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:11,039 So let's let's go ruts run through the main event final table payouts. 208 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,840 As I mentioned at the top, fifteen hundred and seven are going to pay 209 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:18,919 out, so I'll go bottom to top, so ninth place, nine hundred 210 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:22,639 thousand, eighth place, one million, one hundred twenty five thousand, seventh 211 00:14:22,679 --> 00:14:26,840 place, one million, four hundred and twenty five thousand, six place, 212 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:31,399 one million, eight hundred fifty thousand, fifth place is two point four million, 213 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:37,720 fourth place in even, three million, third place also in even number 214 00:14:37,919 --> 00:14:43,600 four million per third, six point five million per second, and twelve point 215 00:14:43,919 --> 00:14:48,480 one million buckaroos up top. There's been a lot of talk about the payouts. 216 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:52,000 I have some issues with it. Yeah, I mean you have some 217 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,360 issues with it. I mean, we're not going to really get into it. 218 00:14:54,799 --> 00:15:00,480 It's it's whatever one easy is. It's it's obvious to see that this 219 00:15:00,879 --> 00:15:05,360 right. They wanted to make first place more than the Jamie Gold year because 220 00:15:07,399 --> 00:15:11,080 they want to double record basically, yeah, exactly, And there's been a 221 00:15:11,159 --> 00:15:13,759 lot of pushback on that, to be honest. You can see it on 222 00:15:13,919 --> 00:15:18,120 social media talking with some players throughout the tournament, talking with players around the 223 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:22,279 industry or people around the industry, that's where the biggest pushback seems to come. 224 00:15:22,559 --> 00:15:26,399 That looks worse than it does compare to two thousand and six, is 225 00:15:26,399 --> 00:15:28,759 because in two thousand and six, I think they paid ten percent. Yeah, 226 00:15:28,879 --> 00:15:31,600 now they pay fifteen percent. Yeah, so you have to they're trying 227 00:15:31,679 --> 00:15:35,759 to basically thread a needle here. They're trying to pay more to first place, 228 00:15:35,879 --> 00:15:41,320 but then also pay way more spots, right, so it gets tricky. 229 00:15:41,519 --> 00:15:43,559 You know a lot of things that people are pointing out is that you 230 00:15:43,639 --> 00:15:46,039 make the found table, you're not getting a million dollars. That's something that 231 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:50,600 people are pointing out. But you know, whatever I mean, So it 232 00:15:50,759 --> 00:15:52,840 is what it is to touch on your point. Eight hundred and seventy three 233 00:15:52,879 --> 00:15:58,039 people cash and Jamie Galzia nearly double for this year fifteen hundred and seven. 234 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:02,679 So even it's not double to percent, no I know, but like don't 235 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:06,120 forget, we're going from eighty seven hundred plays for ten thousand, so that 236 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:11,720 five percent is very sufficient to you know, and we're only actually gaining and 237 00:16:11,879 --> 00:16:15,440 eleven million dollars in the prize pool. Obviously, there's a lot of talk 238 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,039 about the million dollars, sorry, the not being a million dollars For ninth 239 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:22,120 easy Solution, you take twenty five KFF eighth and seventh and the fifty k 240 00:16:22,279 --> 00:16:26,960 off six that gets you to a million. But then obviously all the payout 241 00:16:27,039 --> 00:16:30,919 jumps below that are a little wonky. But yeah, it would have been 242 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,759 cool to have everyone makes the final table wins a million dollars. But we 243 00:16:34,799 --> 00:16:37,799 talked about two thousand and six before. Yeah, I think it's the top 244 00:16:37,879 --> 00:16:42,360 twelve made a million or more in two thousand and six. Of course, 245 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,080 listen, you're not paying out an additional five percent of the field, so 246 00:16:45,519 --> 00:16:48,320 there's a lot of money that comes from that. When you add it all 247 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:56,120 up, the first six figure payout will be eightieth place I believe, one 248 00:16:56,200 --> 00:17:00,360 hundred and nine thousand, four hundred dollars. I think it's in the in 249 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,240 the ninety thousand rained or ninety something thousand before that's um. And then you 250 00:17:03,359 --> 00:17:07,400 hit into six figures and you get to the top haiti um. If you 251 00:17:07,599 --> 00:17:11,480 bubble the final table seven day nine, Yeah, seven hundred K will be 252 00:17:11,559 --> 00:17:15,559 the payout there. Um, if you make the final two tables, so 253 00:17:15,759 --> 00:17:19,599 top eighteen, that'll be three hundred and forty five thousand dollars. A min 254 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:23,599 cash is worth fifteen thousand dollars, and then I think gets right around two 255 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:30,559 hundred and fifty spots before there's a pay jump. What yes, it's like 256 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,680 fifteen or seven. Then there's about two hundred fifty spots, twelve forty four 257 00:17:33,759 --> 00:17:37,359 or something, twelve forty nine, something like that. They go up to 258 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:41,839 seventy thousand, five hundred. Okay, I'm reading the you're shaking my head. 259 00:17:42,039 --> 00:17:45,759 No, because he said the milestone pay as a thousand and fourth was 260 00:17:45,799 --> 00:17:49,319 twenty. They they skip the number. No, they skip the number and 261 00:17:49,319 --> 00:17:53,960 there. But I will say that if you went min cash to that one 262 00:17:55,039 --> 00:18:00,160 thousand and fourth place, so a min cash is like the top fifteen percent 263 00:18:00,279 --> 00:18:03,240 of the field, and then if you just took that that five percent chunk 264 00:18:03,279 --> 00:18:07,400 from fifteen percent to ten percent and just that was all one payout instead of 265 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:11,440 having an additional paoud in between. Um, I think you save like six 266 00:18:11,599 --> 00:18:15,799 hundred and ten k M. You could put that in a few spots exactly. 267 00:18:15,039 --> 00:18:18,279 Listen, the payouts are going to get a lot of conversation. Um, 268 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,839 there's been a lot of pushback on it, but you know ultimately that 269 00:18:22,039 --> 00:18:26,599 this tournament, you know, agree or disagree with the payouts, it always 270 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,559 is a spectacle at all. It becomes a talking point, and you know 271 00:18:29,599 --> 00:18:30,920 that's what we have here. We know what they're doing here. You know 272 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,960 the record with the twelve point one as well. But my thoughts are next 273 00:18:36,079 --> 00:18:38,559 year, looking ahead, what happens next Listen. Well, first of all, 274 00:18:38,599 --> 00:18:45,039 I think next year is I'm going to say bigger field size for sure, 275 00:18:45,039 --> 00:18:48,119 you know, and then let's say it's let's say it's not bigger. 276 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,559 Let's say it's the same size, well like one player more do they have 277 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:56,400 to go like twelve point two million like themselves in a way, You're you're 278 00:18:56,400 --> 00:19:00,880 setting that precedent. Yes, So Pandora's Box of payouts. I understand. 279 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:03,680 Listen, I'm with you. I mean, I think it's it's tricky. 280 00:19:06,559 --> 00:19:10,759 You know, it's not you're you're gonna you're gonna miss on something. I 281 00:19:10,799 --> 00:19:14,079 don't know what you're gonna miss on. You have to sacrifice something, That's 282 00:19:14,079 --> 00:19:18,000 what I'm trying to say. So are you going to sacrifice that first place 283 00:19:18,039 --> 00:19:22,799 prize not being the largest? Are you going to sacrifice you know, making 284 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,680 the players in the community of a little bit annoyed with this? Are you 285 00:19:25,759 --> 00:19:30,160 going to sacrifice I don't know, payouts elsewhere on the payout table you're gonna 286 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:34,279 have to sacrifice something to make this all work. Right, Looking at it 287 00:19:34,319 --> 00:19:37,839 to next year, I think the field tide gets bigger. So that'll make 288 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:42,079 it easier to do what they did this year again next year, is what 289 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:45,640 I'm saying, meaning if they want to again have a bigger first place prize, 290 00:19:45,799 --> 00:19:49,960 because if they let's say they have ten two hundred players next year, 291 00:19:51,079 --> 00:19:52,920 so about one hundred and fifty two hundred and sixty more players. Well, 292 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,720 with how they did it this year, they can carry it over next year 293 00:19:56,799 --> 00:20:00,240 and it'll at least be the same as what they did this year, right, 294 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:03,000 so that that that would make sense, the trend would continue. But 295 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:06,440 I mean, listen, I mean twelve point one million for first place. 296 00:20:06,599 --> 00:20:08,400 You know, if you guys have opinions, let us know. You can 297 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,279 email them in, you can tweet at us whatever. You know. We 298 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,359 love to listen. We love to hear what people are saying out there. 299 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,920 So so yeah, let us know what you think. You got some statistics 300 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:22,279 here. I saw you tweet some of this stuff out, which is cool. 301 00:20:22,559 --> 00:20:26,440 I liked it. I mean, yeah, obviously I'm a nerd for 302 00:20:26,519 --> 00:20:32,000 stats, a stat nerd with this inclusive of this main event. Over one 303 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:36,440 point three billion dollars in prize money awarded in the WSB main event. That's 304 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:41,400 just bananas. That total of seventeen thousand, three hundred and sixteen players have 305 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:47,000 cashed, not unique, just cashed. That's including some of those you know 306 00:20:47,319 --> 00:20:51,759 times where they three people bubbled and they split, you know, they took 307 00:20:51,799 --> 00:20:53,799 five k each, stuff like that, will include the times when they voted 308 00:20:53,880 --> 00:21:00,720 for the winner. Well yes, because I'm joking, all the world champs 309 00:21:00,279 --> 00:21:04,000 take all their money. You pull it together, one hundred and ninety four 310 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:10,559 million dollars have been awarded to the winners in the WSP main events. So 311 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:12,640 that's just kind of staggering numbers when you put it all together. Wild. 312 00:21:12,839 --> 00:21:18,000 So next next year that's gonna e clipse two million dollars for sure. Two 313 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:22,279 million. Ye sorry, yeah, that's gonna be that's freaking wild. I 314 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:25,920 mean Jesus, that's kind of cool. You know, next year is going 315 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:30,200 to be a big year for some milestones at the WSP with all these like 316 00:21:30,319 --> 00:21:33,880 numbers. But yeah, we'll save that for another day. Man, this 317 00:21:33,519 --> 00:21:40,119 millivent is just absolutely crazy. I can't imagine playing heads up for five point 318 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:45,599 six million dollars I mean six point one. Um, here, you can 319 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:48,839 have the bracelet. I'll take the five point six million. How about that 320 00:21:48,599 --> 00:21:52,440 deal? Deal? Okay, cool, because you seem to be all about 321 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,000 this bracelet. I like the bracelet too, but I want to wear it 322 00:21:55,039 --> 00:21:59,759 as a belt buckle for the next with my cowboy hat and my boots, 323 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,400 So wheat the bracelet is absolutely no. I just think I just think the 324 00:22:04,079 --> 00:22:11,599 bracelet, a bracelet like this being worth so much, you know, is 325 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:15,000 we have to consider it in these kind of discussions because the other bracelets are 326 00:22:15,079 --> 00:22:19,079 worth nothing, nearest. Yeah, but I mean I understand what you're saying 327 00:22:19,599 --> 00:22:23,640 to consider in the in the financial discussion, but I'm not sure you're ever 328 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,599 selling that bracelet ever, So I don't think it even matters I have this 329 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:30,640 discussion you. Let's say you in the main event in twelve days. Congrats 330 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,319 to you. You've just quit poker go. I'm left to do all your 331 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:38,079 emails.

You have the 333 00:22:41,839 --> 00:22:45,559 bracelet. I have two percent of you. I don't expect two percent of 334 00:22:45,599 --> 00:22:48,400 the bracelet, right of course, it's yours where you can do it where 335 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:51,119 I can't wait to find out where this is going. No, but Daniel, 336 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,160 are going to ask for more money. Listen, let me finish. 337 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,039 You're gonna ask Let me cook. You're gonna ask for what hunter k Let 338 00:22:56,079 --> 00:22:59,559 me cook. I'm not No, I'm not gonna ask for any of the 339 00:22:59,599 --> 00:23:02,880 bracelet oviously se price you want a friends But now he said, I don't 340 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:06,000 want this thing. This thing is ugly. I'm gonna sell it. There's 341 00:23:06,079 --> 00:23:11,480 no shots. Guy decides I'll give you two hundred K for it undemoket value. 342 00:23:11,559 --> 00:23:14,279 But you know whatever, you're like, that's a good deal. You 343 00:23:14,319 --> 00:23:15,880 sell the price of a two undrek Do I get two percent of two hundred 344 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:19,279 k? Now? No, No, I don't get two percent. I 345 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:23,359 do. I'll see your asmall claims called buddy, what if? What if 346 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:26,599 I can? What if I can? I mean No, We're not even 347 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:30,200 going down this world. This is just stupid. No, we're not doing 348 00:23:30,279 --> 00:23:32,960 this. This is what we do. We talk about ship stuff. So 349 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:44,440 people were not doing well. All right, let's get into some of the 350 00:23:44,559 --> 00:23:48,640 nitty gritty details of a day two D. So if the board is correct 351 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:52,960 that I'm staring at right now, it says that there's three thousand, five 352 00:23:52,079 --> 00:23:57,440 hundred and seventy three chies remaining, which is combined across both of Day two's. 353 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:02,640 Okay, so that was to ABC that took place yesterday and then Day 354 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:06,680 two D that took place today. So there's you know, three thousand, 355 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:08,680 five hundred and seventy three. I'm not sure if that's exactive. It might 356 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,599 tick down a little bit, you know, overnight, but it's it's probably 357 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:15,359 pretty darn close, okay. I mean, they kept that that number pretty 358 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:18,200 dialed in at the end of the night because they're breaking tables, they're moving 359 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:21,920 people to other rooms, all the sort of off all the floor men and 360 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,319 women are on walkie talkies, you know, they got from runners all around 361 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:29,839 grabbing seat tickets like it's a It's a pretty efficient operation overall, so I'll 362 00:24:29,839 --> 00:24:33,559 trust that that number is pretty darn close, if not accurate. Maurice Hawkins 363 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:38,160 leading the way nine hundred and forty one thousand. So last year, I 364 00:24:38,279 --> 00:24:41,480 can't remember the gentleman's name, but he did bag over a million. There 365 00:24:41,559 --> 00:24:45,640 was a chip leader with over a million heading into day three. So this 366 00:24:45,839 --> 00:24:49,039 year, uh, Maurice Hawkins is the closest to a million, but not 367 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:56,000 quite there nine hundred forty one k second place. The Nicholas Rigby Show has 368 00:24:56,039 --> 00:24:59,799 been on full display. Came into today with the chip lead with I think 369 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:04,400 four hundred and eight thousand more than doubled his stack, put nine twenty one 370 00:25:04,839 --> 00:25:10,640 five hundred in the bag. An absolute animal at the table. This guy 371 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:15,400 plays I think eighty percent v Pip beautiful, maybe higher. It's out of 372 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:18,680 control. We all know about the diaper and the dirty diaper, the three 373 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:25,279 Duce and the three Duce offsuits. We also got to see him play against 374 00:25:25,319 --> 00:25:30,799 Phil Hellmuth, which he ended up busting Phil Hellmuth in a pretty wild hand 375 00:25:33,039 --> 00:25:34,960 early on in the day when they were on the Horseshoe feature table that was 376 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:40,880 on the YouTube stream where Remco and I were doing commentary alongside Kane Callus. 377 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:45,599 Helmuth and Rigby are talking to each other, you know. Helmuth asked him 378 00:25:45,599 --> 00:25:49,359 how many times Rigby thought he would bluff Hellmuth, and Rigby said nine times. 379 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:55,559 I think he got up to four before he busted him. So there 380 00:25:55,680 --> 00:26:02,839 was that. We met Ben Parent, who was interesting, who was I'm 381 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:04,839 going to say this with all the love in my heart, the most annoying 382 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:08,039 kid in the room. Wow. And I listen. I thought it was 383 00:26:08,079 --> 00:26:14,640 great entertainment, But I know what the audience and what the viewers were sitting 384 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,680 in the chat, people on social media. I mean, it was this 385 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:19,960 kid Okay, I think he said he was twenty three years old, he's 386 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:25,720 in he's in school to be a dentist. Basically said that I just don't 387 00:26:25,759 --> 00:26:26,759 want to. I just don't want to embarrass myself so much that I get 388 00:26:26,839 --> 00:26:33,200 kicked out identist school. He did not stop talking for like thirty minutes, 389 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:37,440 like it was legit, not stop talking. It was unbelievable. And it 390 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:41,359 got to the point where they basically told him that he couldn't talk for a 391 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:45,960 certain period of time and then he could only ask Phil Hommy with a certain 392 00:26:45,039 --> 00:26:49,519 number of questions, which I think was five questions. Helmy put his headphones 393 00:26:49,599 --> 00:26:55,880 on. They literally started ignoring him at points, like just just flat out 394 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:59,680 of not answering his questions. People were people were on social media and in 395 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:03,079 the chat saying that they were saying, well, three things, one, 396 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:07,759 holy crap, this kid is annoying, or maybe they were saying four things. 397 00:27:07,079 --> 00:27:11,359 Then they said you need to mute this guy's mic. Well, we're 398 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:14,000 not muting his mic, Like, I guess it's not happening. Why because 399 00:27:14,039 --> 00:27:17,960 he's talking a lot. He was his his talk was innocent. He was 400 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:22,240 just literally talking all the time. The next thing that they were saying is 401 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:25,680 you need to move him off the table. Well, we don't have control 402 00:27:25,759 --> 00:27:27,599 of that. That's random, so we're not. No one's gonna do that. 403 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:32,039 And then the fourth thing, which was the most insane thing was people 404 00:27:32,039 --> 00:27:37,119 were people were legit telling us that he needs to get a penalty. Can 405 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,599 you get penalties from the commentator's booth? No, but they were saying, 406 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:41,640 like, he needs to get one. Like they weren't for that, they 407 00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:47,960 weren't coming to us, but for what excessive took chatter. I mean, 408 00:27:48,079 --> 00:27:52,160 it's happened before. He swore once. I think he said the word asshole 409 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:56,000 and he immediately apologized afterwards because he felt so bad and was like my mom's 410 00:27:56,039 --> 00:27:57,200 watching him, sorry, like I didn't mean to swear, you know, 411 00:27:57,599 --> 00:28:00,680 hexent blah blah blah blah. Like he was just like he was like your 412 00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:04,279 annoying little brother that just like NonStop. Now do you pull on your shirt? 413 00:28:04,599 --> 00:28:07,880 Asked you a billion question, what's that? What's that? What's that? 414 00:28:07,039 --> 00:28:08,680 What's that? What's that? What's that? You know, like over 415 00:28:08,759 --> 00:28:11,480 and over and he's like, my two and a half year old daughter, 416 00:28:11,519 --> 00:28:15,039 like that's exactly what he was. So when he when he came to the 417 00:28:15,079 --> 00:28:17,759 feature table today, and by the way, it was it was hilarious that 418 00:28:18,079 --> 00:28:22,559 he was next to Helmuth because Helmuth is someone who obviously like he'll have his 419 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:25,640 moments, he can get annoyed, whatever, But Helmuth is also a dad, 420 00:28:26,039 --> 00:28:30,400 so help me, probably very well knows what this type of personality is 421 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:32,640 like, having bid a dad. I mean his kids are much older now, 422 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:36,079 of course, but like, you know what it's like dealing with kids 423 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:37,880 like that. So it was just funny that it was Helmy next to him. 424 00:28:38,039 --> 00:28:41,160 When he came up to the Whole Street table today, he asked, 425 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:44,799 the deal is this? He's like, I think I'm at this table and 426 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:47,319 the deal is like, is a six forty one? He's like yes, 427 00:28:48,119 --> 00:28:49,799 He's like, yeah, you're a PSC three and he just canna ask you 428 00:28:49,839 --> 00:28:53,039 a question that there's like show no problems. He goes, is it okay 429 00:28:53,079 --> 00:28:56,680 if I shit my pants on stage? Because I'm about to be playing with 430 00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,400 Phil helm With so I immediately thought this this kid was kind of like be 431 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:03,400 sucking up to fail and just being like no, I go an actual pretty 432 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:07,920 fun for the show. And then it went completely the other way that that 433 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:15,640 feature table was our best of the summer. You had that dynamic with Ben 434 00:29:15,799 --> 00:29:21,799 Parent, then you had um Nick Rigby playing every f in hand. There 435 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:23,759 was a lot of fun hands at the table. Um, you had the 436 00:29:23,799 --> 00:29:26,880 whole Helmew thing. There was also this guy Moden's at the table who was 437 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:30,799 like kind of going back and forth with Phil like all this sort of stuff, 438 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:36,640 like Phil got lucky in one hand hit the river and like it was 439 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:40,200 a smallish pot, nothing big, but like you know, they saw afterwards 440 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:41,880 that Phil got lucky and like they everyone was like, oh, you get 441 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:45,759 lucky too. And the film because like these idiots don't even understand like that, 442 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,359 you know, all it was all this, It was the film. 443 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:49,960 It's experience. It was great. Then they got then they go on break, 444 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:52,920 they get moved up to the main set because the main poker girl feed 445 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:57,880 is going to start. I don't know, six hands in Nick Rigby busts 446 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:03,000 Phil Helmy two pair to two pair on an ace ten nine douche board. 447 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:08,039 Um, So that happened, um, And I mean yeah, the whole 448 00:30:08,119 --> 00:30:11,599 it was just the day was great, It really was. Nick Rigby runs 449 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:15,480 it up. He was a huge hand late of course, he gets it 450 00:30:15,559 --> 00:30:18,680 in three ways. With the worst of it, he's got ten eight of 451 00:30:18,759 --> 00:30:26,599 spades on a ten xx board flop against aces and Jack's he just rivers the 452 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:30,160 flush for to knock out two players. So there was that. Um. 453 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:34,519 Yeah, and Nick Rigby ends up going up to bag nine hundred. Nick 454 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:40,160 Nick Rigby twenty twenty one took I believe it was fifty second place, and 455 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:44,880 that's what really put him on the poker map. Guy from Pittsburgh comes out 456 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:47,680 here. You know, we got all his friends, both on the rail 457 00:30:47,799 --> 00:30:49,880 and from afar Um are telling us that, like, you know, we 458 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,000 need to look out for this guy Rigby. You need to look out for 459 00:30:52,039 --> 00:30:56,440 this guy Rigby. He gets on the main set and he did not disappoint. 460 00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:00,200 He's playing the dirty diaper like just like an animal out there. He's 461 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,519 making all these crazy plays. He's doing everything. Ultimately, you know, 462 00:31:03,759 --> 00:31:06,160 lived by the sword, Die by the sword type of thing. And he 463 00:31:06,319 --> 00:31:10,799 got got in fifty second place. But it looks like he's setting himself up 464 00:31:10,839 --> 00:31:17,599 for another run, and boy is it fun to watch Nick Rigby play some 465 00:31:17,759 --> 00:31:22,920 other big stacks on Day two d Jeff Shapiro eight hundred and thirty two thousand, 466 00:31:23,079 --> 00:31:29,880 Jacob Mitch six hundred and sixty thousand, We got Joe Palma five hundred 467 00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:33,319 and six thousand, five hundred. Kathie Liebert had a successful day four hundred 468 00:31:33,319 --> 00:31:40,440 and seventy seven thousand. Chance Corneth four in forty nine thousand, five hundred. 469 00:31:40,519 --> 00:31:44,559 So the Year of Chance Corner, or the Summer of Chance Corneth continues. 470 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:51,400 Tom dwan Fourer twenty six five hundred, Yeah, Joseph Liberta four hundred 471 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:56,920 and eight thousand, five hundred, Daniel Lahi three hundred and fifty three thousand, 472 00:31:57,079 --> 00:32:00,319 five hundred, Pouna Punt three three hundred fifty three thousand, Christian Harder 473 00:32:00,359 --> 00:32:07,519 three hundred and forty nine thousand, Chris Moneymaker one of two champs back sacks 474 00:32:07,599 --> 00:32:10,079 today. Who was the other one was Johnson day two inch and is okay? 475 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:14,559 Johnson and Chris Moneymaker bag three hundred and seventeen thousand. Looks like Barry 476 00:32:14,599 --> 00:32:20,440 Greenstein two hundred and sixty three thousand, five hundred. George Holmes, Yeah, 477 00:32:20,559 --> 00:32:22,240 second place to cry Aldemere a couple of years ago, two hundred and 478 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:25,960 seventy four thousand. UM. I see Johnson is at two hundred ninety seven 479 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:32,160 thousand, five hundred. JC Tran two thirty one five. Cliff Josephie one 480 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:37,160 hundred and ninety nine thousand. I spoke with Cliff Josephy after I was walking 481 00:32:37,279 --> 00:32:42,240 this silver section, couldn't really find anyone to interview, and then I like 482 00:32:42,359 --> 00:32:45,000 kind of turned around and like Cliff was like right there. I was like, 483 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:46,200 all right, let's go. You're already bag. Let's let's make it 484 00:32:46,319 --> 00:32:51,359 happen. So I quickly talked to him afterwards. Of course, Cliff has 485 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:53,440 had some deep runs in this event, so he knows a thing or two 486 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:57,720 about him, and I asked him about it. All right, Cliff Joseph 487 00:32:57,759 --> 00:33:00,920 the end of day two, d I heard you just now it was a 488 00:33:00,039 --> 00:33:02,400 miracle that you put one hundred ninety nine k in the bag. Tell me 489 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:05,920 about it. I had. I had a decent start. I went from 490 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:09,759 twenty nine thousand. Day one was tough from twenty nine thousand to seventy five 491 00:33:09,839 --> 00:33:13,960 thousand, and then I lost Ace King to Kings. It left me with 492 00:33:14,119 --> 00:33:16,200 thirty five hundred. You want the details, so you want the details of 493 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:20,839 the spin up. Then I had I was under the gun, and I 494 00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:23,640 stuck my thirty five hundred and with King two suited, bigline called Jack two 495 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:29,400 suited, I doubled. Then I doubled Jack ten suited versus Ace, queens 496 00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:32,559 suited, And then I doubled Ace jack suited versus tens, And then I 497 00:33:32,599 --> 00:33:39,440 got to play poker again, made some hands, had some hands busted a 498 00:33:39,519 --> 00:33:45,279 couple of short stacks queens against four is a six suited against kings um and 499 00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:47,759 just you know, and chipped up in general. But yeah, so it 500 00:33:47,839 --> 00:33:51,880 was a miracle. But from thirty five hundred under the gun to one hundred 501 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:54,079 ninety nine thousand will take it. So I'm through the dubs re main event 502 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:58,039 is obviously much more of a marathon than it is a spring. You know 503 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,960 that more so than a lot of players. How four and his patience throughout 504 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:05,519 this whole thing when a couple of people who hadn't played it before or haven't 505 00:34:05,599 --> 00:34:08,480 succeed haven't been successful in it. Asked me this week, you know, 506 00:34:08,599 --> 00:34:12,639 heading into it, what the most important thing is I'm gonna just be patient. 507 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:15,400 Don't play like you're play in a cash game. You know, it's 508 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:17,719 all about the patience, and you don't have If you lose some chips, 509 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:21,199 you don't have to get them back right away. And it's very important and 510 00:34:21,599 --> 00:34:23,800 the people with the best composure have the best chance. I think. You 511 00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:27,199 know, obviously there's a lot more that go into the game, but yeah, 512 00:34:27,199 --> 00:34:29,480 I think patience is very important. As good point for you. How 513 00:34:29,519 --> 00:34:32,360 do you feel about the record breaking number? I haven't Today was the first 514 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:36,679 day I started looking at the poker news updates. No, no offense to 515 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:38,400 any any of the press or anything. I've been trying to just to focus 516 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:43,039 on my stuff. Yeah, I'm very I'm very happy. There seems to 517 00:34:43,079 --> 00:34:46,960 be just a tremendous amount of money around and a tremendous amount of interest in 518 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:51,000 our game, and for that, I'm very very happy. Right, So, 519 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,280 yeah, it's awesome. The man formerly known as Johnny Backs, how 520 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:59,000 you interviewed him, I think at the Rio in twenty twenty one, maybe 521 00:34:59,119 --> 00:35:01,320 before that, I can't remember, but he said, Johnny Backs is no 522 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:05,719 more, so we don't call him Johnny Backs anymore. But why I know 523 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:07,239 many people. You know, it's just retired. It's long. No more 524 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:12,280 online poker um. Brittany Stout another person to bag up chips two hundred and 525 00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:15,440 twenty six thousand, five hundred. She actually had bagged less chips today than 526 00:35:15,519 --> 00:35:17,239 she did on day one. I think she came in fourth or fifth and 527 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:22,480 chips overall with three hundred and something thousand, so she puts two twenty six 528 00:35:22,599 --> 00:35:25,519 point five in the bag. Sam silverl bag in one hundred and ninety five 529 00:35:25,639 --> 00:35:30,360 k that's our guy, Sammy baby, do it for the team. Kevin 530 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:34,360 Pollock famous actor, one hundred twenty eight thousand, five hundred, Matt Affleck 531 00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:37,719 one hundred and twenty eight thousand, Jason Mercier's out there ninety nine thousand, 532 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:45,199 one more champion survivor who we got. He passed the sugar today many times. 533 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:50,239 Joe Hash him three twenty eight thousand. Okay, that's pretty good. 534 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:55,159 Famous boxer Ryan Garcia Ye put thirty six thousand, five hundred in the bag. 535 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:58,760 Now I'm looking towards like kind of the bottom of the chip counts. 536 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:01,880 M Carrie, that's the sixty two thousand, James Romo sixty thousand, so 537 00:36:02,159 --> 00:36:07,440 starting sack, David Williams fifty eight thousand, Eric Misserraki fifty six thousand, 538 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:10,159 five hundred, Johnathan a Little forty eight thousand, five hundred, Francis Anderson, 539 00:36:10,199 --> 00:36:15,440 who spent some time up on the feature table with Nick Rigby forty eight 540 00:36:15,519 --> 00:36:19,599 thousand, Michael Missracki forty four thousand, five hundred, Andrew Nimi of course, 541 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:25,760 famous vlogger Donnie Missrahi bag as well, wow forty thousand for Andrew Nimi. 542 00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:30,320 I mean, listen, you can be super short in this thing, 543 00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:36,079 and you can grind your face off. You guys heard Cliff jose if we 544 00:36:36,159 --> 00:36:40,000 talked about it. How you know it's not really like a technical poker thing. 545 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:45,599 But patience is so, so, so so important. I have found 546 00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:50,320 way more ways to be patient in this tournament than I ever thought were imaginable 547 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:53,239 in poker. But you can just continue to do it. You know, 548 00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:57,639 I just ratted off a bunch of chip sacks on the thirty forty and fifty 549 00:36:57,679 --> 00:37:00,320 thousand. None of them are within ten big lines, because the big blind 550 00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:05,519 on day three will be twenty five hundred. So you know, you can 551 00:37:05,599 --> 00:37:08,320 have twenty five k and you got ten pigs. You know, twenty five 552 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:13,480 k feels like nothing, of course, but if you say ten bigs, 553 00:37:13,519 --> 00:37:15,800 okay, it's you know, it's obviously down, but it certainly is not 554 00:37:16,199 --> 00:37:20,440 out, you know, one, two doubles, and you are certainly right 555 00:37:20,519 --> 00:37:24,400 back in this damn thing. So, yeah, three thousand, five hundred 556 00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:28,960 and seventy or so remaining, trying to get down to fifteen h seven. 557 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:32,400 The big question today was are we going to hit the money at the end 558 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:37,599 of day three, which is something that we've become more accustomed to, something 559 00:37:37,679 --> 00:37:39,280 that the players, you know, kind of know that happens. They get 560 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:42,000 kind of close to the end of the day, they say, okay, 561 00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,679 we're gonna extend it, you know, we'll get into the money. I 562 00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,199 don't know if we're going to get there tomorrow. Last year was last year 563 00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:52,280 to coming into day three was two thousand, nine hundred ninety three entries in 564 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:57,559 the top thirteen hundred paid. So this year they got about six hundred more 565 00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:02,559 players coming back, two hundred more spots get paid. It's about the similar 566 00:38:02,599 --> 00:38:07,679 percentage though. Yeah, So I'm just I didn't know that short. I 567 00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:09,519 didn't think we were anywhere near thirty five hundred, So that threw off my 568 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,840 my thoughts. I mean, you were trying to bet people on it. 569 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:17,039 Yeah, I thought we had four thousand people left. But yeah, obviously 570 00:38:17,079 --> 00:38:22,000 I mean the clock and boom. Yeah, we'll see how they go. 571 00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,639 Um, I hope not, because then we hit at four am, three 572 00:38:24,679 --> 00:38:28,800 am. I don't really want to be here. And that's that's of course, 573 00:38:29,039 --> 00:38:31,880 uh, pretty pretty crazy. Yeah, it's gonna be interesting to see 574 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:36,039 if they get there. I also think it. I think it'd be probably 575 00:38:36,079 --> 00:38:40,079 just better just a plan to even if you have to cut tomorrow short by 576 00:38:40,159 --> 00:38:43,039 like an hour or something like that, you know, and then come back 577 00:38:43,079 --> 00:38:46,000 the next day. You know, you definitely don't and then I think the 578 00:38:46,119 --> 00:38:47,960 w C always does a good job of this. You know, you don't 579 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:52,360 want to like go home for the night and come back fifteen people off the 580 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:53,440 money. I mean, that's just kind of shitty for the same people. 581 00:38:53,519 --> 00:38:58,719 Might be no if I get it, but it's still like kind of crappy, 582 00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:00,599 right for those fifteen people, Like you'd rather just get it over with 583 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:04,400 that night. But yeah, it's gonna be a fun day tomorrow, day 584 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:08,639 three. It's it's it's also crazy to think, you know, after all 585 00:39:08,679 --> 00:39:15,639 the different types of tournaments that have been played throughout the summer that the Desman 586 00:39:15,679 --> 00:39:19,039 Event is going on to day three and is really at least right now nowhere 587 00:39:19,079 --> 00:39:22,360 near the money. Look, it's like, you still, you've come so 588 00:39:22,559 --> 00:39:25,800 far. You've played two long ass days of poker. If you played Day 589 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:30,599 one and day two, you played ten hours of poker each day. You 590 00:39:30,679 --> 00:39:32,679 know, it's what eleven twelve hours when you include all the breaks and stuff 591 00:39:32,679 --> 00:39:38,800 like that. Yeah, you still got to play a whole another nine ten 592 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:44,079 hours to get in the money at least, if not longer. I mean, 593 00:39:44,159 --> 00:39:49,199 that's just definitely longer. It's pretty it's pretty pretty wild how slow and 594 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:52,079 methodical this tournament is. But we're here for it, and we're gonna be 595 00:39:52,159 --> 00:39:57,480 here the whole darn way. What is this like stack correction you're talking about 596 00:39:57,559 --> 00:40:01,440 in refer in regards to the coffee bet, Well, day two ABC, 597 00:40:01,679 --> 00:40:05,519 we were told one ninety six. I had the under on two ten. 598 00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:08,239 I have now heard that it could be over two ten, wow, but 599 00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:13,320 not I haven't received confirmation on that. So we still we've got to confirm 600 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:17,400 that. We've got to double checked. One day and then today I had 601 00:40:17,559 --> 00:40:22,440 under four seventy one, so pending where the other stack corrections go, you 602 00:40:22,559 --> 00:40:27,079 might win that one. So we've got three pending. We'll see what happens. 603 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:30,960 I'll don't worry. I'll buy you coffees from my tab. That's right, 604 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:34,360 baby. But I think that's it for coffee bets. I think what 605 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:37,440 would they get today? What was it? Sorry? I don't have today's 606 00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:40,480 though. You don't have to. You know, we could work it out, 607 00:40:40,519 --> 00:40:44,360 but we would need the other numbers first. It definitely is over four 608 00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:46,599 seventy one, so you could have ceased coffees or we could have zero coffees. 609 00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:51,880 We don't know. We'll find out, hopefully twelve hours time. Okay, 610 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:53,039 but I think that is that's it for the coffee bets. You are 611 00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:57,639 seems like you're probably gonna smoke me in these, which kind of sucks. 612 00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:00,880 We can bet on the bubble. What do you want to bet? You 613 00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:01,800 name the bet. Listen, you're the one that's in the hole to me, 614 00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:04,960 so you can name the bet and I'll just do whatever. I think. 615 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:07,880 I'm just gonna wave the wi fig. Oh wow, he's just kinda 616 00:41:08,119 --> 00:41:13,599 yeah to surrender, all right. Moving on to the fifteen hundred dollar PLO 617 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:16,519 bounty will run through these relative coally. It looks like there's about seventeen players 618 00:41:16,599 --> 00:41:22,280 left. Daniel mcgron, you had to run at this one but ultimately fell 619 00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:28,159 short, hitting the rail in thirty first place. Satar how Sadoon is leading 620 00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:30,519 the way. There's more than one hundred and seventy one thousand dollars for first 621 00:41:30,559 --> 00:41:36,639 place. Twelve hundred and fourteen entries. We're in this field. Jeff Matson, 622 00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:42,039 Noah Schwartz, Vincent MUSCOTTI, and Dash Dudley all still all live in 623 00:41:42,199 --> 00:41:45,920 the seven hundred and seventy seven dollars Lucky sevens nolamit hold them? That has 624 00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:51,519 a seven hundred and seventy seven thousand, seven hundred and seventy seven dollars first 625 00:41:51,519 --> 00:41:55,159 place prize. That's a mouthful, But I did this tournament also plays seven 626 00:41:55,199 --> 00:41:58,719 handed, yeah, which I think is amazing. I know a lot of 627 00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:01,119 players were like this is awesome. Yeah, you know, space beautiful. 628 00:42:01,199 --> 00:42:06,840 Yeah. It was taking place over in Paris um So this tournament had Day 629 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:12,480 one, A drew fourteen hundred and seventy entries. Sixty four advanced to Day 630 00:42:12,559 --> 00:42:15,960 two. Thomas Blanton was the chip leader from that flight with two point two 631 00:42:16,039 --> 00:42:20,440 six five million, Day one B two thousand, three hundred and eighty six 632 00:42:20,559 --> 00:42:28,360 entries, one hundred advanced step In Vinokorov three point three one five million, 633 00:42:28,519 --> 00:42:31,920 David Peters bagged a big stack two point two seventy five. Alex Livingston bagged 634 00:42:32,039 --> 00:42:37,280 two point two million. There is still is it one or two more? 635 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:43,519 Storm one more starting flight of the That would actually be crazy. There should 636 00:42:43,519 --> 00:42:45,440 be, but yes, that's so, yeah, there should be, and 637 00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:47,800 it should be an accumulator while you're at it, right, how cool would 638 00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:52,199 that be? That'd be badass, um for sure, because that's a way 639 00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:54,920 to like, you know, there's all this other stuff going around town, 640 00:42:55,079 --> 00:42:59,159 like you keep people here for sure, you don't just like you don't just 641 00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:01,280 like bag one A and then you skip like whatever one F you know, 642 00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:04,840 because you're already bagged. Like you play all of them because you want to 643 00:43:05,159 --> 00:43:08,639 run stack simultaneously with the main event because at the buying point and the fact 644 00:43:08,679 --> 00:43:13,639 that you have seven flies, well, I mean probably at that point it's 645 00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:16,119 a space issue to make sure space, you know, But you start on 646 00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:21,840 the day two yeah, correct, um, so yeah, they should do 647 00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:27,159 that started at seven pm while they're at it seventy seven minute levels. No, 648 00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:29,519 no, no, should be seven minute levels. I'm in for seven 649 00:43:29,519 --> 00:43:34,639 middle of it was seventy seven thousand ships and side just super super deep stack 650 00:43:34,679 --> 00:43:38,159 turbo seven minute levels. Now we're getting crazy seven blinds. So that's gonna 651 00:43:38,199 --> 00:43:40,960 be going on day one. C Is there anything else? Yeah, that's 652 00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:45,719 event and day one see the Lucky sevens and that's it, right. Let 653 00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:49,519 me let me double check. I'm pretty sure I did the rundown correctly. 654 00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:52,760 I would hope, so I did do it correctly. For once. We 655 00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:58,199 have two events starting on Monday. Um ti limit hold him? Sounds like 656 00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:02,440 that's right up your alley and the twenty five k horse. I will be 657 00:44:02,559 --> 00:44:06,679 over sweating that one a bit. But yeah, we're about to hit events 658 00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:10,719 seventy nine of ninety five. And it's like you when you say that number 659 00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:14,920 that we're at seventy nine of ninety five, we still have sixteen more events 660 00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:19,719 to go. I mean they're gonna go pretty quickly. Every everything kind of 661 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:24,320 gets swallowed up by the buzz of the WS main event. But it's there's 662 00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:28,639 still so many events. It's crazy. I actually did miss an event, 663 00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:32,559 and the fact that I'm gonna bring it up. Is gonna please one of 664 00:44:32,639 --> 00:44:42,400 our loyal loyal listeners Tomorrow Sunday, July ninth, is the stought of the 665 00:44:42,599 --> 00:44:51,000 WPT ten thousand dollars buying What's it called WPT everyone for wound I was, 666 00:44:51,119 --> 00:44:53,960 I was referring to WSP event out here listening to WPT event. Come on, 667 00:44:54,159 --> 00:44:58,320 let's we can still talk about them. I am curious though, to 668 00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:01,119 see what that event draws. Ten thousand dollars? Is it ten thousand flat 669 00:45:01,199 --> 00:45:07,320 or is it like ten thousand and five with a couple rake and a sort 670 00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:10,719 of stuff? Ten million dollars guarantee? Yep um. I saw something the 671 00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:15,480 other day, I think it was on WPT dot com about how them and 672 00:45:15,519 --> 00:45:20,039 the win are expecting a massive turnout, saying like it could hit twenty million 673 00:45:20,079 --> 00:45:23,639 in the prize pool, which just seems absurd, seems crazy. I mean, 674 00:45:25,599 --> 00:45:30,119 judging by what we saw here at the WP main events, ten thousand 675 00:45:30,159 --> 00:45:32,159 and forty three entries, I mean you could, yes, you definitely could 676 00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:35,960 go on a fifth of the people go over there. I mean, yeah, 677 00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:38,079 you could hit twenty million. You know, I love I love the 678 00:45:38,199 --> 00:45:43,000 charity aspect. I think that's might Hinda the numbers, though, I think 679 00:45:43,039 --> 00:45:45,280 there's enough people out there that'll be like, oh, I'm not so sure 680 00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:49,079 on that. Um, obviously it's gonna be straked out, you know, 681 00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:54,079 by one c rolls around probably you know, five hundred people that are still 682 00:45:54,159 --> 00:46:00,159 in this event that com flight. So yeah, it'll be interesting to see 683 00:46:00,199 --> 00:46:02,519 how that goes. I mean, poker in general is very alive, very 684 00:46:02,559 --> 00:46:07,440 well crushing everywhere. Of course here at the World Series of Poke, where 685 00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:10,760 the numbers are just absolutely freaking bananas. I still can't believe this guy over 686 00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:14,679 ten thousand, Like I know, like my number coming in it was ninety 687 00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:20,159 four hundred. You know, as we went throughout the summer, I know, 688 00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:23,119 ten thousand got in play much more. I know, we talked in 689 00:46:23,199 --> 00:46:30,400 recent days about the possibility of even like pushing towards eleven thousand, even though 690 00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:35,679 we results in a number over ten thousand, and you know, I started 691 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:39,679 to think that ten thousand was in play. It's still a very pleasant surprise 692 00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:44,679 that it got that big. I mean, it's just wild, you know. 693 00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:49,039 And I think that we the main event probably would have gotten to this 694 00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:52,119 size sooner had it not had to deal with a lot of bumps in the 695 00:46:52,199 --> 00:46:55,400 road, which we've talked about previously. Two thousand and six, I think 696 00:46:55,440 --> 00:47:00,440 it was Uiga towards the end of the year, after Jamie olds thing. 697 00:47:00,039 --> 00:47:02,880 Later on that year, you have the UIGEA that kind of kills everything, 698 00:47:04,039 --> 00:47:07,480 really hinders numbers going forward. Then you know, it's spent time building backup, 699 00:47:07,559 --> 00:47:12,039 building back up. Then you have two eleven, Whack Black Friday. 700 00:47:12,599 --> 00:47:15,360 You know, numbers take another hit, spends time, you know, building 701 00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:17,440 back up, building back up, building back up. You know, online 702 00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:22,639 poker isn't widely spread in the US. Finally it comes back, but it's 703 00:47:22,679 --> 00:47:27,360 on a state by state basis, so you know, more so baby steps 704 00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:30,559 than you know, taking big leaps forward. Then you have to deal with 705 00:47:30,639 --> 00:47:34,760 the whole pandemic year. You know, it's really it was a pandemic year, 706 00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:37,599 but it was more like a pandemic year and a half because they shifted 707 00:47:37,679 --> 00:47:40,719 the twenty twenty one to to you know, much later in the year September 708 00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:45,400 October in November. So the WISP has certainly had to deal with a lot 709 00:47:45,440 --> 00:47:50,119 of wonky obstacles thrown in their path. But the fact that we're here twenty 710 00:47:50,199 --> 00:47:54,320 years removed of you know, the poker boom starting when Chris Moneymaker won the 711 00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:59,880 two thousand and three WIS main event, and we've eclipsed ten thousand entries. 712 00:48:00,400 --> 00:48:07,360 I mean, that's just wild. And listen now going forward, I know 713 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:10,039 we're far from done from this WSP, from this main event, but you 714 00:48:10,119 --> 00:48:14,039 know, just kind of you know, getting ahead of ourselves a little bit 715 00:48:14,119 --> 00:48:17,400 looking towards next year. In future years, I expect the number to continue 716 00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:22,159 to climb, especially if a couple things happen. One more states in the 717 00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:27,119 US come on board for online poker. You know, one to two states 718 00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:30,039 is still a decent boost, and I think it all just helps create that 719 00:48:30,159 --> 00:48:34,440 kind of snowball effect. You know, the snowball isn't exactly flying down the 720 00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:37,480 mountain, but it's moving along slowly but surely, and you can always, 721 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:42,039 you know, pick up a little bit of momentum here and there. I 722 00:48:42,159 --> 00:48:46,400 think when you continue to ramp up your satellite promotions like the WSP did this 723 00:48:46,519 --> 00:48:50,960 year, both the land based satellites and then also the ones that they do 724 00:48:51,079 --> 00:48:54,199 online, mostly in partnership with Gigi Poker and Club Gig, I think that 725 00:48:54,360 --> 00:48:59,440 that's a very big thing. So you know, if all that stuff continues 726 00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:02,960 to happen. Live poker continues to do all right, and you know, 727 00:49:04,159 --> 00:49:07,599 thrive around the world. Then it's only going to benefit the World Series of 728 00:49:07,639 --> 00:49:12,000 Poker. And then they just have to fade some sort of crazy freak thing, 729 00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:15,559 you know, some sort of law thing, some sort of pandemic thing 730 00:49:15,639 --> 00:49:17,159 like you know, just that's what you like, a freak thing that they 731 00:49:17,199 --> 00:49:21,920 can't control. Like, that's what you have to fade because this train right 732 00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:23,840 now seems like it's going down the tracks at two hundred miles an hour and 733 00:49:24,039 --> 00:49:27,880 ain't nothing stopping it. Yeah, agreed. I mean at this point they 734 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:31,800 might need a bigger freaking venue in three years because it's just not a control 735 00:49:32,199 --> 00:49:36,480 here. But that's a very good thing overall. So that's it. Um, 736 00:49:36,559 --> 00:49:38,400 we're gonna get out of here on that note. And uh yeah, 737 00:49:38,599 --> 00:49:42,840 I'm gonna go try and spin up some chips on a day three. I 738 00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:46,039 get eighty two thousand coming back, So you know what's at thirty two thirty 739 00:49:46,199 --> 00:49:51,000 three big blinds something like that. It's plenty, that's all I'm gonna say. 740 00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:53,440 Plenty. Yeah, of course, I mean it's it's obviously easy to 741 00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:58,760 sit there and think oh, you know, I only have eighty two thousand, 742 00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:02,280 you know, because um, you know, so many people had like 743 00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:06,800 you got you got Nick Rabe and Maurice Hawkins. Are you know, approaching 744 00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:08,119 a million like all? You know, I got friends back in five hundred 745 00:50:08,159 --> 00:50:10,400 K, four and a k like all this sort of stuff. And I'm 746 00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:15,679 still sub one hundred k, you know, obviously overstarting, but not by 747 00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:20,960 that much. Like I've never been into one hundred thousand. The highest I 748 00:50:21,079 --> 00:50:23,039 got was eighty six thousand. Then I had to pay the Big Blind on 749 00:50:23,199 --> 00:50:28,199 their pay the yeah, the Big Blind and the ante on the final hand 750 00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:31,480 of the night. So um. But when I say thirty two thirty three 751 00:50:31,519 --> 00:50:35,159 big Blinds, you know, I think it's thirty two point eight exactly. 752 00:50:35,559 --> 00:50:38,480 Um. Then that makes me feel really good because that there's a lot of 753 00:50:38,639 --> 00:50:43,880 play and a lot of maneuverability in that sort of stack. Hopefully I get 754 00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:46,000 a good table draw tomorrow and we'll go from there, one hand at a 755 00:50:46,079 --> 00:50:49,599 time, one level at a time, all that sort of stuff. As 756 00:50:49,639 --> 00:50:52,599 Cliff Joseph, he said, as my friends have constantly told me, and 757 00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:55,840 you know, all of my friends that have made deep runs, I've I've 758 00:50:55,960 --> 00:51:00,480 watched it firsthand from them is patient and this is really paramount, this this 759 00:51:00,679 --> 00:51:04,280 thing, and uh yeah, I'm ready for the marathon, so let's go. 760 00:51:04,880 --> 00:51:07,039 Um. My name is Donny Peters, his name is Tim Duckworth, 761 00:51:07,079 --> 00:51:15,199 and we'll talk to you guys later. Face chanting spre
