All right, This episode basically we
sourced listener questions from everyone far and

17
00:01:32.200 --> 00:01:37.640
wide regarding THESIP. Some are serious, some are funny, some are somewhere

18
00:01:37.680 --> 00:01:41.319
in the middle. We're gonna answer
all of them, trying to the best

19
00:01:41.359 --> 00:01:46.319
that we can, putting our knowledge
to use. And yeah, you want

20
00:01:46.319 --> 00:01:48.040
to just get right into it,
like do you have anything else? Do

21
00:01:48.079 --> 00:01:49.680
you have any intro that you want
to do? Like, no, I'm

22
00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:53.120
coming, I'm ready, I'm ready
to answer some questions. Okay, good,

23
00:01:53.239 --> 00:01:59.680
good. So first question, we're
coming out hot Sharon Helldorfer via a

24
00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:01.680
Google will form that we put out
there for our listeners to make questions.

25
00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:07.920
Sharon said, do you think WSP
would ever have a buying option to have

26
00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:13.240
a comfortable office like chair in lieu
of the inquisition like ones they offer Now,

27
00:02:13.919 --> 00:02:19.479
I'd pay extra. What do you
think, Sharon? You out of

28
00:02:19.520 --> 00:02:23.919
your mind? Those chairs are so
comfortable. I love him nice high back,

29
00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:27.840
straight back, you can lean back, crack you back and win.

30
00:02:27.879 --> 00:02:30.800
You're a little little time. I
love the WSP chairs. I don't know

31
00:02:30.800 --> 00:02:34.159
what anyone I mean, the team
team to Graner, we both love these

32
00:02:34.240 --> 00:02:38.960
chairs. I like the chairs as
well. I liked the old chairs better.

33
00:02:38.840 --> 00:02:44.319
Um that said, I still like
these chairs. Honestly, I think

34
00:02:44.599 --> 00:02:47.879
I think that people that don't like
these chairs, but the slouches, Yes,

35
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:52.120
you have you sit upright, like
you have to sit upright. You

36
00:02:52.159 --> 00:02:53.479
have to have good posture. You
know, you have to have like your

37
00:02:53.560 --> 00:02:58.080
your your legs on the floor,
both both feet on the floor. Um,

38
00:02:58.159 --> 00:03:00.800
you kneed spent ninety degrees like sitting
upright. You know. I think

39
00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:04.479
that that's how you sit in these
chairs, and if you start to slout

40
00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:07.919
or you bend over or whatever it
is, that's how you start to get

41
00:03:07.960 --> 00:03:10.680
the back pain. At least that's
my experience from from sitting in them and

42
00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:14.960
playing in them, and not only
playing them, but like we work in

43
00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:16.520
these chairs. You know, we
sit in them all the time. So

44
00:03:17.120 --> 00:03:21.560
um, maybe it's just something that
we've gotten accustomed to. That said,

45
00:03:21.599 --> 00:03:25.280
remember that year when Ellie Lesbe showed
up with an office chair at the Rio.

46
00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:30.719
Yeah, he not brought an office
chair into the Rio into the pavilion

47
00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:34.199
room and was like sitting and playing
with it. I think he was claiming

48
00:03:34.240 --> 00:03:36.759
that he had a bad back,
and you know, people were looking at

49
00:03:36.840 --> 00:03:38.199
him like he was crazy. Some
people try and take dealer chairs with a

50
00:03:38.199 --> 00:03:42.599
lot of people, and they always
take them away. Some people will stack

51
00:03:42.639 --> 00:03:45.159
two chairs on top of each other
if they're a little bit on the shorter

52
00:03:45.199 --> 00:03:47.879
side they want to or they just
want to sit higher, all that sort

53
00:03:47.879 --> 00:03:51.759
of stuff. So I don't think. I don't think peopill ever do this.

54
00:03:52.240 --> 00:03:55.960
Um that said likes money. I'm
assuming as a business all businesses like

55
00:03:55.960 --> 00:04:00.000
money. Maybe this is the way
to get some extra money. Yeah,

56
00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:02.719
get a nice you know, Herman
Miller comes in and sponsors the entire WSP

57
00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:08.599
and supplies three thousand chairs or whatever
is needed. I didn't ever see it

58
00:04:08.639 --> 00:04:11.919
happening. So if you don't like
the chair, which I know a lot

59
00:04:11.960 --> 00:04:15.520
of people don't, we might be
in the minority here. You can a

60
00:04:15.560 --> 00:04:16.879
lot of cushions, you can.
The only thing that I don't like about

61
00:04:16.879 --> 00:04:21.160
the chair is how easily they tip
over. They do. They need to

62
00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:27.879
be like front weighted and waited on
the bottom, so that especially in a

63
00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:31.000
poker setting where everyone's hanging a backpack
or something on a chair and as soon

64
00:04:31.000 --> 00:04:33.120
as you stand up, that chair
is going over. Yeah, exactly,

65
00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:35.920
And it's always kind of awkward,
like you just lost a hand, you

66
00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:40.160
might have busted out of the tournament, you stand up to leave, your

67
00:04:40.240 --> 00:04:43.399
chair falls over and makes a loud
noise. People think you're making a commotion,

68
00:04:43.480 --> 00:04:46.160
but you're really just trying to exit
the tournament quietly. But then the

69
00:04:46.160 --> 00:04:49.160
attentions on you and it's always kind
of awkward at that moment with them all

70
00:04:49.240 --> 00:04:55.720
right, Moving on, Mike Berger
asked, still very disappointed in the inaugural

71
00:04:55.759 --> 00:04:59.319
PGT mix games. We're not on
Poker Go. Come on, Mike.

72
00:05:00.480 --> 00:05:05.079
With that being said, will there
be more mixed game broadcasts this year versus

73
00:05:05.160 --> 00:05:10.800
last year? We feel like in
an orphaned subset at times justified or not.

74
00:05:11.480 --> 00:05:15.399
Well, mister Burger, looks like
we're planning to live stream eight mixed

75
00:05:15.399 --> 00:05:18.319
game events this year. Now,
that could be give or take because we're

76
00:05:18.360 --> 00:05:23.680
keeping things very flexible, but internally
that's kind of what we have, which

77
00:05:23.720 --> 00:05:27.639
is I think around like twenty percent
of the events that we're streaming, So

78
00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:30.959
it's not just eight events, it's
eleven days because we're doing Day three of

79
00:05:31.040 --> 00:05:35.959
the ten K Horse Championship. We're
also doing Day three and Day four of

80
00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:40.600
the Poker Players Championship, so eleven
days of mix. Obviously, yes,

81
00:05:40.759 --> 00:05:43.959
schedules may change, but at this
stage that's a good amount of mix and

82
00:05:43.959 --> 00:05:47.519
if you want to include Omaha like
PLO in that, we're pushing, you

83
00:05:47.560 --> 00:05:50.800
know, and there are some days
on the schedule where we're going to be

84
00:05:50.839 --> 00:05:56.720
streaming on the main feature table and
then also the secondary Horseshoe table is what

85
00:05:56.759 --> 00:06:00.639
we're calling it, and then that
secondary horseshoe table will probably be a mixed

86
00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:02.240
game setup. So you're gonna get
two stuff that day. You know,

87
00:06:02.319 --> 00:06:05.480
the Noloman Hold Him people can go
watch the Noloman Hold Him invent or whatever

88
00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:09.600
events running on the main feature table, and then the mixed game people can

89
00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:13.000
come watch a second event, So
you know, we're giving you two things

90
00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:15.800
to watch that day. So I
think that we've done a pretty good job

91
00:06:15.839 --> 00:06:18.759
for the mixed games. And I'm
not just saying that because I'm a company

92
00:06:18.800 --> 00:06:23.639
man. Tim and I love mixed
games. We love putting them out there

93
00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:26.959
as much as possible. Totally hear
you on the PGT mixed games not being

94
00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:30.319
streamed, and that's something we're trying
to work towards doing next time around.

95
00:06:30.759 --> 00:06:35.560
So yeah, So I would say
that if if Tim most importantly is happy

96
00:06:35.639 --> 00:06:40.240
with the mixed game schedule, that
we're putting out there because he's like the

97
00:06:40.279 --> 00:06:44.279
mixed game guy in the company.
Then I think we're in a good place

98
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:48.040
all right. The next the next
three questions are kind of all on the

99
00:06:48.079 --> 00:06:51.120
same vein, so I'll just kind
of hit on them all together. Chris

100
00:06:51.240 --> 00:06:54.879
Stott said, how do you register
for an event? I went out to

101
00:06:54.879 --> 00:06:57.560
the WSB three years ago to play
in a couple of cheaper events, couldn't

102
00:06:57.560 --> 00:07:00.160
figure out how to register, said
he saw crazy long lines, waited for

103
00:07:00.199 --> 00:07:04.160
a couple hours, didn't have the
patients. Do they allow online registration?

104
00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:10.240
Andy Gold said, first time going
to the WSP playing in several events,

105
00:07:10.240 --> 00:07:13.240
what's going to be the quickest way
to register for a tournament and get my

106
00:07:13.319 --> 00:07:16.600
seat to avoid the long lines?
And then Joe Diastolfo said, can you

107
00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:19.560
talk about the best way to register
tournaments? Are you able to pre register

108
00:07:19.879 --> 00:07:25.959
online before arriving in Vegas? So
first things first, the old fashioned way

109
00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:30.600
is to head on over to the
registration area at Paris that's connected to the

110
00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:33.199
Horseshoe So Paris, Las Vegas out
on the Las Vegas Strip, with your

111
00:07:33.199 --> 00:07:36.319
money, make sure you have an
ID with you, go to the registration

112
00:07:36.360 --> 00:07:40.240
line. Make sure you have your
Total Rewards card too, Yes, so

113
00:07:40.279 --> 00:07:42.759
you're gonna need a Total Rewards card, you're gonna need your ID, and

114
00:07:42.759 --> 00:07:46.360
you're gonna need whatever money you're you're
planning to buy in for the tournament.

115
00:07:46.480 --> 00:07:51.000
Go through the registration line. Sometimes
the registration line is two people, sometimes

116
00:07:51.040 --> 00:07:55.199
it's two hundred. Okay, inform
the teller when you get up there,

117
00:07:55.199 --> 00:07:58.000
which event you'd like to register.
Hey, I'm going to play the classes.

118
00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:01.639
I want to play Day one.
B cool. You pay the entry

119
00:08:01.639 --> 00:08:03.439
fee, you collect your ticket,
you're often running, you're on your way.

120
00:08:05.000 --> 00:08:09.319
Just quickly on that in terms of
times when I was I like registering

121
00:08:09.600 --> 00:08:11.680
the old fashioned way, because I
don't know, I was talking about Jeff

122
00:08:11.680 --> 00:08:16.519
Platt with this. There's there's something
about like waiting in the line, that

123
00:08:16.519 --> 00:08:20.959
that anticipation, that excitement going up. They're actually handing them your cash getting

124
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:24.199
the ticket back, Like it just
feels like you're buying a ticket to the

125
00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:26.839
game and you're gonna get into the
day. Like that's what I like.

126
00:08:28.240 --> 00:08:31.720
I'm probably kind of over that now
that I've done it a bunch of times.

127
00:08:31.039 --> 00:08:35.000
That said, I totally understand if
people want to do it, let

128
00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:37.679
me just add to that that you
know we're gonna have two hundred people in

129
00:08:37.679 --> 00:08:41.840
the line sometimes. And if you're
playing the Colossus the millionaire making somebody with

130
00:08:41.960 --> 00:08:46.639
multiple flights and you're trying to register
for a flight, maybe it's tomorrow,

131
00:08:46.720 --> 00:08:50.840
maybe it's in two day's time.
Make sure you communicate I want to register

132
00:08:50.919 --> 00:08:52.399
day one C. Once you get
the receipt, you know, these guys

133
00:08:52.399 --> 00:08:56.399
have been working eight hour shifts.
Just make sure that you it does say

134
00:08:56.519 --> 00:08:58.519
day one C because otherwise when you
turn out, that's going to be a

135
00:08:58.559 --> 00:09:03.240
headache. So just double check your
ticket, double check everything, double check

136
00:09:03.279 --> 00:09:07.360
the event number, because you don't
want to go through that line once more.

137
00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:11.480
Yeah, definitely. To my point
of what I was saying is I

138
00:09:11.600 --> 00:09:15.440
found that like going kind of later
at night if you can do it,

139
00:09:15.600 --> 00:09:18.080
you know, midnight, one am. You know, Tim and I were

140
00:09:18.120 --> 00:09:20.679
always there working, So if I
was going to play an event the next

141
00:09:20.759 --> 00:09:22.200
day or whatever, I would just
wait till that night and do it and

142
00:09:22.240 --> 00:09:26.080
then not have to show up extra
early the night before, not knowing what

143
00:09:26.120 --> 00:09:28.000
the line would be. Sometimes there
would be a line at night, but

144
00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:33.039
it was never really too bad.
You would generally get through in twenty minutes.

145
00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:35.039
They were so max u sometimes you
would just walk right in and get

146
00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:39.399
it right after the front. So
if you're doing it live and in person,

147
00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:41.679
that's what I would suggest is do
it in like the off hours.

148
00:09:41.679 --> 00:09:45.440
So if you're a morning person.
Let's say you're from the East Coast,

149
00:09:45.480 --> 00:09:46.960
you're out here. Now you're here, and you wake up at you know,

You can utilize the self service kiosks

163
00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:50.639
Las Vegas, and then those will
allow you to print c cards before you

164
00:10:50.679 --> 00:10:54.600
head into play. If you follow
Daniel Lagron you on Twitter, you'll know

165
00:10:54.679 --> 00:10:56.039
that he does this. He did
it a couple days ago. He talked

166
00:10:56.039 --> 00:10:58.960
about it. I think you did
it. I did it yesterday. There

167
00:10:58.000 --> 00:11:03.240
you go. How easy was It
was incredibly easy, except for the fact

168
00:11:03.320 --> 00:11:07.679
that Champagne Ballroom is not open currently, so it will be people listening exactly

169
00:11:07.919 --> 00:11:11.200
open on Monday, but you can
if not, if you're listening to this

170
00:11:11.360 --> 00:11:13.919
today Friday, just and you want
to go do it. It's the main

171
00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:18.600
cashier in Paris. But give them
your money. There is for people out

172
00:11:18.639 --> 00:11:22.679
there. There's a minimum twenty five
hundred dollars deposit per transaction. And you

173
00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:26.600
know, if you're only playing two
events and they're both fifteen hundred dollars and

174
00:11:26.679 --> 00:11:30.879
you want to use this fast track, remember there is a three dollar fee,

175
00:11:30.919 --> 00:11:35.440
so don't just deposit three thousand,
deposit three thousand and six dollars to

176
00:11:35.559 --> 00:11:39.679
cover the Bravo fee. Um but
yeah, man, I think and then

177
00:11:39.720 --> 00:11:41.840
you if you have any money left
over, and then you can get it

178
00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:43.039
back at the end of the series
or the end of your trip or whatever,

179
00:11:43.080 --> 00:11:46.159
you just go cash in the following
year. Even Yeah, well you

180
00:11:46.200 --> 00:11:50.039
don't risk that. But no,
I do have a friend that did that.

181
00:11:50.039 --> 00:11:52.480
They waited a whole year to take
their money out and they had no

182
00:11:52.559 --> 00:11:56.399
issues. Yeah. So um so
yeah, Bravo Poker Live dot com if

183
00:11:56.399 --> 00:12:00.440
you want to do the online registration
stuff before you head on into Vegas.

184
00:12:01.159 --> 00:12:03.720
I think I'm going to take advantage
of that this year. I know it

185
00:12:03.759 --> 00:12:05.559
comes with the three dollar fee.
Some people might fret at having to pay

186
00:12:05.600 --> 00:12:09.120
the three dollar fee. Personally,
I just want to skip the line.

187
00:12:09.159 --> 00:12:11.799
So that's what I'm going to do, especially for events like you know,

188
00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:16.879
three hundred dollar Gladiators, four Hunt
It dollar Closus, etc. But as

189
00:12:16.919 --> 00:12:20.200
Tim mentioned, twenty five hundred minimum
deposits would just be aware of that.

190
00:12:22.559 --> 00:12:24.600
Sam Cosby who works for us,
but he's a listener to the pod so

191
00:12:24.639 --> 00:12:28.200
he can write in a question,
he said, who is the top pick

192
00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:31.440
for the twenty five K Fantasy Draft? This year. If you guys missed

193
00:12:31.440 --> 00:12:35.279
it, yesterday, we did a
whole episode about the twenty five K Fantasy

194
00:12:35.320 --> 00:12:39.039
Poker League. We had Daniel lagron
you on Tim and I talked a lottle

195
00:12:39.039 --> 00:12:41.960
bit about it, and we also
had Matt Clark on. Matt Clark is

196
00:12:41.039 --> 00:12:46.440
my draft partner for this year's draft. So who was the top pick for

197
00:12:46.480 --> 00:12:48.399
the twenty five K Fantasy Draft this
year? I'm not going to answer it

198
00:12:48.440 --> 00:12:50.799
on this one. That's fine,
that's you can answer it. I did

199
00:12:50.799 --> 00:12:54.799
some talking yesterday on the episode,
so if people want to go back and

200
00:12:54.840 --> 00:12:58.120
listen to a little bit of tidbits
that I was dropping here and there,

201
00:12:58.120 --> 00:13:01.320
fine, but I'll let you answer
this one here. Number one pick,

202
00:13:01.399 --> 00:13:05.159
it's always Daniel Olgroner. Ah,
he is going to be by himself in

203
00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:11.679
Tier one. Tier two, you've
got Sean Deep Dan Zach. Normally you'd

204
00:13:11.720 --> 00:13:13.000
have a Steven Shiitwick in there,
but not this year. I don't think

205
00:13:13.000 --> 00:13:16.720
he's arriving on time. Maybe I
should have said that because I'm just giving

206
00:13:16.720 --> 00:13:22.039
away crucial information. So, yeah, it's always Daniel olgrender But the best

207
00:13:22.080 --> 00:13:24.440
part is that I can just delete
that. Yeah, but then then leave

208
00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:28.000
in this part where I'm saying that
I deleted it, so people are out

209
00:13:28.039 --> 00:13:30.120
there wondering what the heck is going
on, which I think is what I

210
00:13:30.200 --> 00:13:33.759
mean. You should put a fake
name in name of fake name. M

211
00:13:35.080 --> 00:13:39.320
Yeah, do a whole podcast on
rankings and just have totally fake names and

212
00:13:39.440 --> 00:13:41.799
rankings and throw everything out there.
What's wrong with that? That sounds like

213
00:13:41.000 --> 00:13:45.960
the great idea. It sounds like
games some ship to me. Yeah,

214
00:13:46.039 --> 00:13:50.320
easy number one, pick conq wroung
if you pick him? Alright, Next

215
00:13:50.440 --> 00:13:54.759
question, Andy Heidelberg in the Bounty
events, when you pull your prize,

216
00:13:54.840 --> 00:13:58.799
is Jeff Platt also going to give
you a packet of mayo or hot sauce?

217
00:13:58.320 --> 00:14:01.679
This, of course, horse is
alluding to the no gamble, no

218
00:14:01.799 --> 00:14:07.799
future wheel of pain when one of
the things is you have to like drink

219
00:14:07.840 --> 00:14:09.720
a pack of mayo or hot sauce
if you spin it. Yeah, so

220
00:14:11.279 --> 00:14:16.039
I don't think so. Although if
Jad is Jeff Jeff sorry is doing the

221
00:14:16.159 --> 00:14:18.200
MC duties, maybe he should have, you know, a packet of mayo

222
00:14:18.279 --> 00:14:22.080
and one pocket of a suit a
packet of hot sauce and the other one

223
00:14:22.080 --> 00:14:24.360
and he should give it to you. If I was Jeff Platt, and

224
00:14:24.440 --> 00:14:28.799
I'm assuming Jeff's gonna play five or
six eventsment of him this year. I

225
00:14:28.840 --> 00:14:33.240
would in my pocket have a pack
of Mayo, pack of hot Sauce and

226
00:14:33.240 --> 00:14:37.720
a no gam Win no Future patch, and if he gets busted, give

227
00:14:37.799 --> 00:14:41.320
that patch and give that Mayo packet
too. He's a partner kind of like

228
00:14:41.360 --> 00:14:43.759
you know, a fossil man.
He's just signed the fossil No, this

229
00:14:43.879 --> 00:14:46.240
is the the Jeff Platt motion.
No, no, Jeff's not doing that.

230
00:14:46.360 --> 00:14:50.159
There's no way we could get some
custom Mayo packets with no gam win

231
00:14:50.200 --> 00:14:54.559
A future. That's what we needed. Okay, that's that's different. Yeah,

232
00:14:54.600 --> 00:14:58.799
that's we should work come out.
UM all right? John Friends wrote

233
00:14:58.840 --> 00:15:03.159
in what is the best day to
go in the event flight ABC or D.

234
00:15:05.759 --> 00:15:09.519
First of all, he's forgetting two
flights. How about how about day

235
00:15:09.519 --> 00:15:13.600
two ABC and two D? Yes, because you can late register into the

236
00:15:13.679 --> 00:15:16.000
day twos. I think it's one
level. I thought it was. I

237
00:15:16.039 --> 00:15:20.320
can't remembers three levels. No,
I have no idea. You you can

238
00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:22.120
be basically look it up on WP
dot com. But you can register into

239
00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:28.720
um day two either Day two what
it's ABC and the day D or Day

240
00:15:28.720 --> 00:15:31.639
two D. If I play this
year, I'm registering the latest I possibly

241
00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:35.799
can because I'm the worst player in
the field. Um, you know,

242
00:15:35.879 --> 00:15:39.840
it depends what your goal is here, John, Do you want to play

243
00:15:39.919 --> 00:15:43.600
against the most players and have the
potential to accumulate the biggest chip stack,

244
00:15:43.879 --> 00:15:46.399
Then you're going to choose Flight D. But a lot you know this is

245
00:15:46.440 --> 00:15:50.879
going to fall around, you know, July fourth, So it's really up

246
00:15:50.879 --> 00:15:54.519
to you how you want to schedule
out your next kind of basic basically weak

247
00:15:54.559 --> 00:15:58.000
because if you play Flight A,
you have three days off, then you

248
00:15:58.039 --> 00:16:00.279
play your flight, then you play
Day two, then you have a day

249
00:16:00.320 --> 00:16:03.720
off, and then you play day
three. So that's a nice lot of

250
00:16:03.759 --> 00:16:06.480
rest for some people. Some people, if they're coming into town, maybe

251
00:16:06.519 --> 00:16:08.559
they want to just do the day
two or they want to do day one,

252
00:16:08.639 --> 00:16:11.919
Day one, day off, play
Day two, and then straight into

253
00:16:12.000 --> 00:16:15.639
day three. So it's really it's
always going to be a personal choice.

254
00:16:15.679 --> 00:16:18.360
I don't think there's any right answer
in this. Yeah, I mean,

255
00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:23.360
I think the best day from an
EV standpoint is just probably Day one D.

256
00:16:23.679 --> 00:16:26.639
I mean, that's just going to
be the biggest field. That's when

257
00:16:26.679 --> 00:16:32.159
people will be coming in from out
of town who are looking for like the

258
00:16:32.159 --> 00:16:36.080
shortest trip, you know, that's
what That's the day they're gonna play,

259
00:16:36.759 --> 00:16:38.000
just coming as late as possible so
they don't have to spend you know,

260
00:16:38.039 --> 00:16:41.000
an extra night or two on room
nights all that sort of stuff. So

261
00:16:42.639 --> 00:16:48.679
that's the day that I would play
if I didn't have other things to think

262
00:16:48.679 --> 00:16:51.080
about. I think about like work
stuff, So I might play like,

263
00:16:51.120 --> 00:16:53.200
Okay, I can do one C
because then I can do something else on

264
00:16:53.200 --> 00:16:56.399
one day, like stuff like that. You know. So you know,

265
00:16:56.519 --> 00:16:59.200
it does all that up to be
an event. Is good because all these

266
00:16:59.200 --> 00:17:02.799
starting flights in also the option to
come in on day on the day twos.

267
00:17:02.840 --> 00:17:04.559
You know, it does allow some
flexibility like let's say you've got stuff

268
00:17:04.599 --> 00:17:07.559
going on on day C and D
okay, well you come in for flight

269
00:17:07.640 --> 00:17:10.960
ay and then you go take care
of that stuff on those days and then

270
00:17:11.000 --> 00:17:11.960
you can come back for the day
two if you make it that far.

271
00:17:12.119 --> 00:17:17.960
So someone pitched me a really good
idea. What's Lasia one of our close

272
00:17:18.039 --> 00:17:22.079
friends, and he said that there
should be seven seven day one seven.

273
00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:26.599
Yeah, why are we limiting it
to a four day window? You know?

274
00:17:26.640 --> 00:17:29.119
Some people, well, day one
day is gonna have twenty seven people

275
00:17:29.519 --> 00:17:30.799
might be a good day to back
some chips. No, it's not.

276
00:17:32.039 --> 00:17:34.319
What do you mean you're gonna bag
what two times starting stack be the chip

277
00:17:34.440 --> 00:17:37.240
leader of the main event. If
you told me right now that I could

278
00:17:37.240 --> 00:17:41.759
play Day one for the rest of
my life and bag two times starting chips

279
00:17:41.759 --> 00:17:45.920
on day one, I would take
that. That's pretty good on day one

280
00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:51.799
when you're ten billion big, You're
ceiling is capped. Hey man, you

281
00:17:52.160 --> 00:17:55.759
I'm fine with that starting stack.
No, we're not doing it. We're

282
00:17:55.759 --> 00:17:57.759
not going a week of the starting
days. We're not doing that. Okay,

283
00:17:57.839 --> 00:18:00.000
well, I know it's not a
deal. But in a perfect I

284
00:18:00.000 --> 00:18:03.200
thought what I thought you wonder,
what I thought you were gonna say,

285
00:18:03.480 --> 00:18:06.960
was like, you have a starting
flight every weekend throughout the whole World Series.

286
00:18:07.000 --> 00:18:08.960
I thought you were gonna says,
that's a good idea too, But

287
00:18:10.000 --> 00:18:17.480
it's not. Okay, okay,
it just kind of flights. Here we

288
00:18:17.519 --> 00:18:21.279
go. Yeah, I'll actually like
that idea. No. The only thing,

289
00:18:22.279 --> 00:18:26.880
the only thing that I think needs
to be adjusted as it pertains to

290
00:18:26.960 --> 00:18:36.160
the starting flights is the final starting
flight I believe should be on Saturday,

291
00:18:36.279 --> 00:18:41.319
so you start Wednesday for a so
it goes Wednesday, Thursday, Friday,

292
00:18:41.359 --> 00:18:47.799
Saturday. I mean that's just the
Bay completely disagree with that's the best Those

293
00:18:47.839 --> 00:18:51.960
are the best one days already,
the biggest Why are we putting it on

294
00:18:52.000 --> 00:18:53.880
the best day to play? Day
one? Him in the best day to

295
00:18:53.920 --> 00:18:57.799
play, that's when most people are
available to play. That's my points.

296
00:18:57.880 --> 00:19:03.160
That's why one auld be Saturday,
so we can get that that field bigg

297
00:19:03.160 --> 00:19:07.240
off so it's a bit more balanced
throughout the throt. I don't think that

298
00:19:07.279 --> 00:19:11.000
works to have the flight bigger.
I think the only way that you can

299
00:19:11.839 --> 00:19:15.839
that you can control how big the
earlier flights are is that that you force

300
00:19:15.079 --> 00:19:18.240
satellite winners to play earlier flights.
Yeah, we will always say that,

301
00:19:18.279 --> 00:19:22.559
but but the tricky part with that
is that if you're giving away satellite packages,

302
00:19:22.680 --> 00:19:27.599
then you're likely going to have to
offer more money for accommodations and stuff

303
00:19:27.599 --> 00:19:32.240
like that. So it's it's tricky
overall. That said, I think you

304
00:19:32.279 --> 00:19:34.039
start, if you're a four starting
flights that this, you start out on

305
00:19:34.160 --> 00:19:38.920
Wednesday, you finish it on a
Saturday for the for the day one flights,

306
00:19:38.920 --> 00:19:45.880
and then you go from there.
Anyway, moving on Connor uh ts

307
00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:49.279
ts, I hope I'm saying your
last name somewhat correctly. Connor. Um,

308
00:19:49.359 --> 00:19:53.640
Will Daniel Legrand you be playing in
the Colossus this year? Connor says

309
00:19:53.720 --> 00:19:57.880
the Colossus will be my very first
WSP event. Congratulations on that, and

310
00:19:59.400 --> 00:20:03.160
I am curiou to see if any
of the big guns will plan it.

311
00:20:03.559 --> 00:20:07.519
So, Daniel Lagron, you responded
to somebody on Twitter a bit ago,

312
00:20:07.599 --> 00:20:14.279
and he posted basically his entire schedule
of events over on poker steak dot com.

313
00:20:14.279 --> 00:20:18.039
He listed a package worth one point
eight million dollars that people were able

314
00:20:18.079 --> 00:20:22.319
to get action of. He sold
out pretty quickly there. He posted all

315
00:20:22.359 --> 00:20:26.599
the individual events then, or at
least what he's planning, on his Twitter

316
00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:33.720
feed a week or two ago.
I did not see the Colossus listed on

317
00:20:33.920 --> 00:20:37.759
that schedule. Um didn't do too
much digging into what exactly is going on

318
00:20:37.839 --> 00:20:40.880
that day. There's probably other stuff
going on that day. I'm pretty confident

319
00:20:40.920 --> 00:20:44.519
in saying that Daniel will be playing
every single day at the World Series of

320
00:20:44.559 --> 00:20:51.440
Poker. That said, not the
Colossus, at least according to the only

321
00:20:51.440 --> 00:20:55.519
way he's in the Cossus if everything
on that day has kind of failed.

322
00:20:55.559 --> 00:20:59.680
But even then it's it's such a
commitment to play these multi flight four hundred

323
00:20:59.680 --> 00:21:03.000
dollars. It's for someone like him, I mean, And maybe there's some

324
00:21:03.160 --> 00:21:07.279
sort of possibility where like he's in
some running, some heated battle for a

325
00:21:07.279 --> 00:21:10.400
Player of the Year, and um, he wants to, you know,

326
00:21:10.480 --> 00:21:12.279
get a bullet or two in that
to be able to hopefully try and get

327
00:21:12.319 --> 00:21:15.960
some points or something. I don't
know, but at least as of right

328
00:21:15.000 --> 00:21:18.000
now, I don't think. So
that said, you asked if any big

329
00:21:18.000 --> 00:21:21.279
guns are be playing it. Yeah, of course there's gonna be plenty of

330
00:21:21.359 --> 00:21:22.559
big guns in it. I'm assuming
Sean Deeve's gonna be out there. He

331
00:21:22.559 --> 00:21:25.960
plays everything. You know, he's
gonna be out there playing. He's a

332
00:21:26.000 --> 00:21:29.599
big gun. UM don't know if
Phil Helms play, does he play the

333
00:21:29.640 --> 00:21:34.599
Colossus. I feel like Max Max
Max late reds of the Colossus. No

334
00:21:34.599 --> 00:21:38.880
one knows what feels read and Butter
is big field, no limit holding.

335
00:21:40.359 --> 00:21:45.960
So we'll have some tweet about sleep
and that's why he's gonna sleep till two

336
00:21:45.000 --> 00:21:52.000
pm and then two six pm.
I'm just saying that there's gonna be plenty

337
00:21:52.000 --> 00:21:55.480
of big names in the classes.
Yea. The field is so big they

338
00:21:55.559 --> 00:21:59.200
might not get to your table.
But Connor, I'm assuming you're gonna sea

339
00:21:59.279 --> 00:22:02.839
someon people in your You're going to
see some people walking around even just being

340
00:22:02.880 --> 00:22:06.200
out at the World Series of Poker, like just walking around the venues,

341
00:22:06.200 --> 00:22:07.480
You're gonna see big names. You're
gonna be able to see them. You're

342
00:22:07.480 --> 00:22:11.200
gonna be able to you know,
talk to them, introduce yourself, you

343
00:22:11.200 --> 00:22:14.279
know, ask them for a photo, whatever is. You know, most

344
00:22:14.279 --> 00:22:18.200
of the big stars are certainly willing
to do all of that sort of stuff

345
00:22:18.200 --> 00:22:22.640
for the fans out there, So
so yeah, that's good stuff. Alan

346
00:22:22.720 --> 00:22:27.279
Taylor wrote in super crunch Time mode, probably more crunch time now since it's

347
00:22:27.279 --> 00:22:30.960
been a couple of days since you
submitted this question, I need help deciding

348
00:22:32.000 --> 00:22:36.000
if I should pursue this dilemma.
Alan writes, I love poker, and

349
00:22:36.000 --> 00:22:40.400
I absolutely love the main event.
In fact, I've been binge watching all

350
00:22:40.440 --> 00:22:44.000
of them for the past month as
a Poker Gros subscriber. Shout out Poker

351
00:22:44.000 --> 00:22:45.759
Grow subscriber. Love it. If
I were to compete this year, it

352
00:22:45.759 --> 00:22:49.119
would be my first time with little
to no turney experience, and I would

353
00:22:49.160 --> 00:22:53.519
love to get a shot at a
bracelet. Okay, the problem is that

354
00:22:53.599 --> 00:22:56.599
I'm in the middle of trying to
secure a buy in with my work as

355
00:22:56.680 --> 00:23:02.519
a delivery driver and security guard,
and it sucks because I feel like this

356
00:23:02.599 --> 00:23:06.960
year would be my year, especially
since my daughter turns four and my favorite

357
00:23:07.000 --> 00:23:11.559
number is you guessed it four.
My question for you, guys is would

358
00:23:11.559 --> 00:23:14.720
you try and make the push to
travel to the desert and compete with little

359
00:23:14.839 --> 00:23:18.720
time and no reservation or would you
wait till next year when you're guaranteed to

360
00:23:18.759 --> 00:23:22.640
have funds for a buy in,
room reservation, etc. Thanks guys,

361
00:23:22.759 --> 00:23:27.240
enjoy the pod. I would say
wait. My reason is that the WSPUM

362
00:23:27.319 --> 00:23:32.880
event isn't going anywhere, I mean, pending a global pandemic like we had

363
00:23:32.880 --> 00:23:34.839
in twenty twenty, you know,
and even in that case, it's coming

364
00:23:34.880 --> 00:23:40.799
back. So I know there's a
lot being made of the fact that the

365
00:23:41.400 --> 00:23:45.519
main event is likely going to have
a record field size this year. That

366
00:23:45.680 --> 00:23:48.440
said, it's probably gonna be bigger
next year than I mean, you know,

367
00:23:48.559 --> 00:23:53.400
So I don't think you need to
over extend yourself if that's what you're

368
00:23:53.440 --> 00:23:57.519
asking us here, to get out
there and play this thing, because it

369
00:23:57.680 --> 00:24:00.640
is going to be around. I
know it might hurt a little bit in

370
00:24:00.640 --> 00:24:04.000
your heart. Daughter turning four,
lucky number being four, I get it,

371
00:24:04.440 --> 00:24:08.480
But get a new lucky number of
her of five. Then when she

372
00:24:08.519 --> 00:24:12.400
turns five next year, you're in
there. But I wouldn't go crazy over

373
00:24:12.440 --> 00:24:18.759
extending myself. I've personally always told
myself that when I do play the US

374
00:24:18.039 --> 00:24:22.079
event for the first time, and
my first time was last year, I

375
00:24:22.160 --> 00:24:26.119
want to do my absolute damnedest and
be set up where I can play it

376
00:24:26.200 --> 00:24:32.079
every single year. And that's my
goal now going forward. So you know,

377
00:24:32.519 --> 00:24:36.160
I wouldn't go crazy trying to do
it this year if it's going to

378
00:24:36.359 --> 00:24:40.519
set you back going forward or overextend
yourself. Like I said. Again,

379
00:24:40.559 --> 00:24:42.039
like I said, it's always going
to be there. It's only going to

380
00:24:42.079 --> 00:24:45.319
be another year, way not that
long. This will allow you to you

381
00:24:45.319 --> 00:24:48.400
know, if you've been working to
kind of save some funds to play some

382
00:24:48.480 --> 00:24:52.119
poker with in your eye and the
Wan event, well you can still continue

383
00:24:52.160 --> 00:24:56.640
to save those funds targeting next year, but then maybe you have a little

384
00:24:56.640 --> 00:24:59.319
bit more funds. Maybe instead of
saving of ten thousand and you have twelve

385
00:24:59.359 --> 00:25:02.599
thousand or third teen thousand, So
then you're able to be a little bit

386
00:25:02.599 --> 00:25:06.279
better off getting those accommodations, or
you're able to fire the one thousand dollars

387
00:25:06.319 --> 00:25:07.720
mini main event in addition to the
main event, so you're able to do

388
00:25:07.839 --> 00:25:11.839
kind of more things with your money. That would be my suggestion. I'm

389
00:25:11.839 --> 00:25:15.039
not sure he's saying to play the
main event though. I think he's saying

390
00:25:15.119 --> 00:25:18.400
to come out and play out event. Well, so he said, I

391
00:25:18.440 --> 00:25:21.640
know he used to love the main
event, so I'm assuming it was the

392
00:25:21.640 --> 00:25:26.039
main event. Well, Alan,
if you don't, maybe you can come

393
00:25:26.039 --> 00:25:29.839
out and just play the eight hundred
you know, deep sack Championship. Yeah,

394
00:25:29.960 --> 00:25:33.200
especially if if you, like Alan
said, he has little to no

395
00:25:33.359 --> 00:25:37.319
Turney experience, maybe you want to
come out for the first year, play

396
00:25:37.359 --> 00:25:40.079
a couple of side events, play
the Colossus, the Mini main Event,

397
00:25:40.160 --> 00:25:41.799
etc. Get that out of the
way, get a feel for it,

398
00:25:41.839 --> 00:25:45.759
get a feel for the tournaments.
You know, get a little bit accustomed

399
00:25:45.759 --> 00:25:48.759
to playing in the World Series of
Poker, because a lot of people if

400
00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:52.799
they if they come in and they're
playing for their first time and it's main

401
00:25:52.880 --> 00:25:56.039
event, I mean that can be
full on like center court at the NBA

402
00:25:56.160 --> 00:26:00.640
game, the water in a smaller
event, And I want to touch on

403
00:26:00.799 --> 00:26:06.480
his comment about room reservations. You
know, it's technically we're only a few

404
00:26:06.559 --> 00:26:10.039
days away from the World Series,
but you know, the roommates are not

405
00:26:10.119 --> 00:26:14.480
astronomical. If you pick the right
week, the right hotel, you're okay

406
00:26:14.599 --> 00:26:18.599
walking, you know, ten minutes
to get to the horse Shoes slash Paris.

407
00:26:18.599 --> 00:26:22.000
Yeah, the room roommates are definitely
not going to kill you, even

408
00:26:22.039 --> 00:26:25.680
if it's this late in the game. So just yeah, do some research.

409
00:26:25.920 --> 00:26:30.079
Maybe find an event that interests you, whether it's maybe the six hundred

410
00:26:30.079 --> 00:26:33.839
deep Stack or a flight of the
Colossus, and you know, do some

411
00:26:33.960 --> 00:26:38.920
research on rooms and maybe come out
for the weekend. Just don't be all

412
00:26:40.000 --> 00:26:45.319
in. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we definitely enquire against being all rich.

413
00:26:45.440 --> 00:26:49.880
Ryan, our buddy wrote in when
reporting deuce, he's referring to douce

414
00:26:51.000 --> 00:26:55.119
to seven. Do you need to
include suits? This goes back to the

415
00:26:55.160 --> 00:26:57.240
fact that when I was live reporting
manager at Poker News, I got mad

416
00:26:57.359 --> 00:27:03.119
the guys for not reporting not reporting
suits induce and everyone kind of got mad

417
00:27:03.160 --> 00:27:06.880
at me. So it was the
whole thing. You say, no suits,

418
00:27:07.039 --> 00:27:11.000
You wrote some expletives on the sheet
here. Um, no, suits

419
00:27:11.039 --> 00:27:15.799
in raz no suits in low ball
games unless they matter. So if someone

420
00:27:15.839 --> 00:27:18.799
has a flush induce, it's obviously
bad. You can mention that. But

421
00:27:18.960 --> 00:27:25.359
that was that was my point is
that yes, they they don't matter,

422
00:27:25.440 --> 00:27:27.519
but they also do matter because induced
flush is kind of against you. So

423
00:27:27.720 --> 00:27:32.319
the chance of you having a flush
induce is like, no, I understand,

424
00:27:32.440 --> 00:27:36.160
But what I would what I was
getting at my angle was let's say

425
00:27:36.240 --> 00:27:38.119
you have four cards, you're drawing
one yea, and they're all spades.

426
00:27:38.279 --> 00:27:42.039
That then then you were trying to
put it there. And then their argument

427
00:27:42.160 --> 00:27:45.200
was like, yeah, but they
didn't make the flush. Show doesn't matter,

428
00:27:45.480 --> 00:27:47.920
but but it would, it would
make sense. And then if you

429
00:27:47.960 --> 00:27:49.119
see the other person's five cards,
you're like, oh, well that person

430
00:27:49.160 --> 00:27:52.519
only has one space, so there's
more spades in the decks. Like that

431
00:27:52.640 --> 00:27:56.240
was kind of my whole point that
My thing was this, if you're trying

432
00:27:56.319 --> 00:28:03.160
to be perfect, you do everything
as perfect as possible, which includes suits.

433
00:28:03.519 --> 00:28:06.519
I think it's just whether they matter
or not reads about from a lot

434
00:28:06.559 --> 00:28:10.519
of reporting perspective. Okay, you
know that's okay, whatever. Anyway,

435
00:28:10.599 --> 00:28:15.400
we're along past that in our lives. But thanks for the question. Jake

436
00:28:15.599 --> 00:28:18.000
Kim I one day want to play
in the main event. I was wondering

437
00:28:18.480 --> 00:28:22.599
what should one do for hotels if
they want to play it, because it's

438
00:28:22.680 --> 00:28:26.039
so long and you could be knocked
out immediately. Yeah, this one's this

439
00:28:26.160 --> 00:28:30.079
one's a really tough one. I
would suggest that if you're planning to play

440
00:28:30.119 --> 00:28:34.160
the main event, you have to
prepare for worst case and best case scenarios.

441
00:28:36.160 --> 00:28:40.400
Best case obviously making the fountable bit. A more realistic best case would

442
00:28:40.440 --> 00:28:44.640
be, let's say, making day
five, if I would book my hotel

443
00:28:44.920 --> 00:28:47.799
through to a day five, because
you know, if you're still in the

444
00:28:47.839 --> 00:28:52.960
main event, that means you're probably
making five to ten thousand dollars at that

445
00:28:52.039 --> 00:28:56.720
point, so it's worth you can
just extend your trip. But you also

446
00:28:56.039 --> 00:29:00.960
have to prepare for the worst,
and that is busting one of the main

447
00:29:00.920 --> 00:29:03.640
but you should know that, Hey, look, I got five more days

448
00:29:03.640 --> 00:29:07.960
in Vegas. I have this on
my schedule. I can play the Lucky

449
00:29:07.039 --> 00:29:11.000
sevens, I can go to the
Win, I can play this five hundred,

450
00:29:11.319 --> 00:29:14.480
I can go to the Venetian play
this four hundred. So give yourself

451
00:29:14.559 --> 00:29:19.200
some backup options and just pray to
God that you don't need to, you

452
00:29:19.279 --> 00:29:22.400
know, follow through with us.
Yeah, I think that's the way you

453
00:29:22.480 --> 00:29:26.640
approach it is. I would probably
if I was coming in from out of

454
00:29:26.680 --> 00:29:30.000
town to play the main event,
that's kind of the anchor point of what

455
00:29:30.079 --> 00:29:33.599
I was doing. I would plan
to stay three nights, and then I

456
00:29:33.680 --> 00:29:38.400
would have backup plans, as Tim
said, for if I were to bust

457
00:29:38.440 --> 00:29:41.799
out on my day one of the
main event, to have something else to

458
00:29:41.920 --> 00:29:48.119
play on the day two or the
day three. Ideally you don't need to

459
00:29:48.160 --> 00:29:51.160
play those events. You're still in
Las Vegas, because you're still in THESM

460
00:29:51.279 --> 00:29:52.480
event, and you can go from
there. You know, you make day

461
00:29:52.519 --> 00:29:56.400
four, you can find a combinations, you can continue to go on from

462
00:29:56.440 --> 00:29:59.240
there. That's how I would do
it. I don't think that I would

463
00:29:59.279 --> 00:30:00.960
come out and just be like,
I'm only gonna play the main event,

464
00:30:02.000 --> 00:30:03.640
because then it's tricky. Should I
book two nights? Should I book three?

465
00:30:03.680 --> 00:30:07.359
Should I book two weeks? You
know, I'm still like so it's

466
00:30:07.440 --> 00:30:11.400
kind of it depends. Also,
coming from you can probably just drive hunt

467
00:30:11.480 --> 00:30:14.119
well, if you're flying from say
Boston, Yeah, you definitely have to

468
00:30:14.160 --> 00:30:17.200
do some planning. Yeah, and
then and then of course I mean check

469
00:30:17.279 --> 00:30:21.400
with hotels that you're going to book
on cancelation policies. You know that way,

470
00:30:21.440 --> 00:30:23.519
if you come out and you are
only going to play the main event,

471
00:30:23.599 --> 00:30:26.960
and you you know, you book
three nights initially, you know what

472
00:30:27.119 --> 00:30:30.960
happens if I want to leave early? Can I get those nights refunded to

473
00:30:30.039 --> 00:30:34.960
me? Just just make sure that
you have, like the the rules for

474
00:30:36.200 --> 00:30:38.440
for what's allowed and what's not allowed, so you know you're not caught by

475
00:30:38.519 --> 00:30:45.640
surprise in any sense. Evan Price
writes what documentation is required to play Event

476
00:30:45.759 --> 00:30:51.079
number one, the Casino Employees event? Have you ever played this? Um

477
00:30:52.720 --> 00:30:56.759
no? I played a different casino
employees event at the win last year,

478
00:30:56.880 --> 00:30:59.799
but I've never played the one at
the I played this once. I took

479
00:31:00.039 --> 00:31:06.480
I at the time Poker News media
badge there. But in that experience and

480
00:31:07.400 --> 00:31:11.880
other people's experience, they really don't
check anything. But sounds like you're,

481
00:31:12.079 --> 00:31:15.440
you know, coming from maybe you're
you're already in the casino industry. I

482
00:31:15.480 --> 00:31:18.680
would just bring your you know,
your badge or your casino ID, just

483
00:31:18.839 --> 00:31:23.440
in case there's not too many people
out there, hopefully zero people out there

484
00:31:23.519 --> 00:31:27.839
trying to sneak into the casino employees
event that is not a casino employee.

485
00:31:29.319 --> 00:31:33.160
Um, you know this is put
on for a select pool of players,

486
00:31:33.400 --> 00:31:36.519
so there's not too many people out
there ruining that. But yeah, bring

487
00:31:36.599 --> 00:31:40.839
your badge. You shouldn't have any
issues. Yeah, it shouldn't shouldn't be

488
00:31:40.880 --> 00:31:44.039
too hard. Um, you know, I would bring everything I have.

489
00:31:44.359 --> 00:31:47.440
You know, if I have look
an employee ID something like that, an

490
00:31:47.440 --> 00:31:48.680
employee card, whatever it is,
I would just bring it with me and

491
00:31:48.720 --> 00:31:53.039
just to just to be safe for
getting in there. Uh. Dean Marino

492
00:31:53.319 --> 00:32:00.799
rates in why are all the draw
poker games at the WSP lowball games where's

493
00:32:00.839 --> 00:32:05.680
five card draw high? Five card
high actually is in dealer's choice. I

494
00:32:05.720 --> 00:32:07.480
was about to say he's wrong.
Well, I mean yeah, but you

495
00:32:07.519 --> 00:32:09.880
don't see that because you only see
dealer's choice. You don't look at all

496
00:32:09.920 --> 00:32:17.000
this twenty um high games. And
it's not Texas, it's not nineteen eighty

497
00:32:17.160 --> 00:32:22.960
three anymore. People don't really enjoy
playing draw high or variants of draw high.

498
00:32:24.200 --> 00:32:28.960
Lowball is the preferred way. Bedoogi, but ac beduci you know,

499
00:32:29.039 --> 00:32:32.079
duce to seven as five, all
those just more popular. And you know,

500
00:32:32.279 --> 00:32:37.039
WS we obviously care about the best
numbers in these events, and they're

501
00:32:37.079 --> 00:32:39.319
the ones that are the most popular. So that's why you're going to see

502
00:32:39.400 --> 00:32:45.200
more lowball, then then you do
high I would love to see a five

503
00:32:45.240 --> 00:32:49.960
card draw high I'm in I think
it'd be great. Why do you play

504
00:32:50.000 --> 00:32:52.960
it? I mean maybe I don't
know. You've played the no limit does

505
00:32:53.000 --> 00:32:55.680
before? Right? Yeah? Fifteen
hundred, Yeah, I want to play

506
00:32:55.680 --> 00:32:59.240
that one. Love. I love
that game for sure, all right.

507
00:32:59.359 --> 00:33:04.680
David Inger does play stop on day
two of the Mystery Bounty Turner, which

508
00:33:04.720 --> 00:33:07.400
is the million dollar bounty at the
Dibisity every time someone gets knocked out.

509
00:33:07.559 --> 00:33:13.599
If not. How does the drawing
of bounties work? It was a bit

510
00:33:13.640 --> 00:33:15.279
of a mess last year, Um, I think the first time doing it

511
00:33:15.480 --> 00:33:23.400
and listen fourteen, so it was
it was just insane. You know.

512
00:33:24.000 --> 00:33:28.559
It'll probably be a lot more streamlined
this year, which is a good thing.

513
00:33:28.640 --> 00:33:31.319
But it wasn't like it wasn't horrible
last year, and it was largely

514
00:33:31.359 --> 00:33:35.960
because the players like they were kind
of all over the place, leaving seeds

515
00:33:36.000 --> 00:33:37.599
wanting to draw this time that time, run all like it. It was

516
00:33:37.640 --> 00:33:40.279
just kind of a mess. Um, Yeah, but it'll be a lot

517
00:33:40.319 --> 00:33:44.559
better this year for sure. Yeah, I'm assuming they're gonna streamline everything.

518
00:33:44.759 --> 00:33:49.240
You know, they were doing some
cool stuff with iPads and treasure chests and

519
00:33:49.359 --> 00:33:52.200
reveals. I'm assuming it's going to
be very similar, just maybe a lot

520
00:33:52.319 --> 00:33:57.480
more iPads. I believe actually used
that iPads last year and we only had

521
00:33:57.640 --> 00:34:01.559
something like thirteen to give them.
Hopefully they have thirty thirty iPads for this

522
00:34:01.720 --> 00:34:09.320
mystery bounty reveal. But your play
doesn't stop. It doesn't officially stop,

523
00:34:09.440 --> 00:34:14.119
but people want to turn around.
They want to see if the million dollars

524
00:34:14.159 --> 00:34:16.440
bounty goes off, so it,
you know, kind of stops, but

525
00:34:16.559 --> 00:34:23.800
not really stops. Yeah. Um. Justin Mowatt tips on navigating food and

a fun stab at the gladiator. That's

Poker tournament that he's referring to. What

528
00:34:34.920 --> 00:34:37.800
to bring or not to bring in, how to do dinner break if I

529
00:34:37.920 --> 00:34:40.320
make it? Thanks, Well,
there is a seventy five minute dinner break

530
00:34:40.559 --> 00:34:45.440
on the starting days, which is
approximately six thirty PM. Is when that

531
00:34:46.199 --> 00:34:50.920
that seventy five minute dinner break will
start. Of course, that could be

532
00:34:50.960 --> 00:34:52.360
a little bit later. Than six
thirty, depending on when they kick things

533
00:34:52.400 --> 00:34:55.880
off, but the w B usually
kicks tournaments off right on time, so

534
00:34:57.320 --> 00:35:00.320
approximately six thirty pm on the day
one. If you do make it to

535
00:35:00.440 --> 00:35:04.159
day two. Looking at the structure
sheet says a sixteen minute dinner break on

536
00:35:04.320 --> 00:35:09.880
day two, So plan accordingly.
Listen. Horseshoe and Paris have a lot

537
00:35:09.920 --> 00:35:15.239
of good venues for food, specifically
over on the Parriside there's a lot of

538
00:35:15.280 --> 00:35:19.800
stuff over there. We're also now
located down on the Las Vegas Strip.

539
00:35:19.880 --> 00:35:22.599
Like you can walk I know a
lot of people that were walking over to

540
00:35:22.679 --> 00:35:25.159
like the Cosmo. Yeah, like
food court area, which seventy five minute

541
00:35:25.199 --> 00:35:29.079
dinner break. It takes about ten
to fifteen minutes to walk over there.

542
00:35:29.079 --> 00:35:31.480
If you get up and leave right
away, you can make it all.

543
00:35:31.719 --> 00:35:35.760
You might think like, oh my
gosh, Cosmo, like that's two blocks

544
00:35:35.800 --> 00:35:37.199
down, but no, you can
make it there. You can make it

545
00:35:37.280 --> 00:35:40.440
there. You can eat and then
you can get back, get your steps

546
00:35:40.480 --> 00:35:45.079
in, get some exercise, you
know, avoid that post dinner break lull.

547
00:35:45.360 --> 00:35:51.280
Yeah. You can also walk right
across the street to Blagio. There's

548
00:35:51.400 --> 00:35:57.920
obviously restaurants over there. There's the
little food area right like the pavilion area,

549
00:35:57.960 --> 00:36:00.360
I guess right out front of Horseship, Grand Bizare Shop, the Grand

550
00:36:00.400 --> 00:36:05.039
Bazaar shops. There's a lot of
stuff out there. There's a wall Wallburgers,

551
00:36:05.079 --> 00:36:08.639
there's some other stuff, a dirt
dog, there's a couple of chicken

552
00:36:08.679 --> 00:36:14.199
places, Subway what. First of
all, I'm going to suggest put a

553
00:36:14.239 --> 00:36:16.159
snack in your bag just in case. But if you do have a seventy

554
00:36:16.199 --> 00:36:19.960
five dinner minute dinner break, or
even if you're just on your your twenty

555
00:36:20.000 --> 00:36:23.199
minute, didn't break directly below bottom
of the horse Shoe, there's a food

556
00:36:23.280 --> 00:36:29.199
court, There's Subway, Johnny Rockets, sabaro Um, something else there,

557
00:36:29.280 --> 00:36:32.440
Nathan's hot dog. You've also got
as Donnie mentioned, the Grand Bazaar shops.

558
00:36:32.920 --> 00:36:37.599
There are a lot of options.
Um. Now, if you do

559
00:36:37.719 --> 00:36:39.960
make a dinner break and you have
a car, you know you're ten minutes

560
00:36:39.960 --> 00:36:44.840
from Chinatown, you have five minutes
from all kinds of other places where you

561
00:36:44.880 --> 00:36:47.440
can eat. So there are a
lot more options for players this year.

562
00:36:47.440 --> 00:36:51.639
It just depends if you want to, you know, walk to a different

563
00:36:51.679 --> 00:36:54.480
property, or do you want to
just kind of stay on side and hit

564
00:36:54.599 --> 00:36:59.239
up one of the food courts.
I would. I would get off ste

565
00:36:59.559 --> 00:37:01.480
Um. I mean, if you're
gonna go over on the paraside to one

566
00:37:01.519 --> 00:37:07.840
of those restaurants, I think that's
obviously totally fine. I think I think

567
00:37:07.920 --> 00:37:10.679
one the one out in front of
Paris is Hex. I think it's what's

568
00:37:10.719 --> 00:37:15.280
called Umm, not sure how late
it's open, but you can obviously check

569
00:37:15.320 --> 00:37:19.039
that online. The Cosmo option seems
like a good one. Jumping over to

570
00:37:19.119 --> 00:37:22.880
the to Bellagio is another good one. So yeah. One other trick is

571
00:37:23.960 --> 00:37:28.239
have a friend, go get a
table, or go get a reservation or

572
00:37:28.320 --> 00:37:30.559
whatever. That's always like an elite
move. You know, you say,

573
00:37:30.639 --> 00:37:35.039
hey, so and so, I'm
gonna have dinner break in an hour and

574
00:37:35.159 --> 00:37:37.639
forty minutes. Can you head on
over there and get a table? That

575
00:37:37.719 --> 00:37:39.679
way, you when you get there
and it's the start of your dinner break

576
00:37:39.719 --> 00:37:43.079
and you're already into your dinner break
because you had to walk there, you

577
00:37:43.159 --> 00:37:45.480
just walk right into the restaurant,
find him at their table, and sit

578
00:37:45.559 --> 00:37:47.559
down. You know, that's that's
the best move. Man. If there's

579
00:37:47.559 --> 00:37:51.880
a group of you going, you
know, have one person, you know,

580
00:37:51.960 --> 00:37:53.840
head on over there. I've even
seen people if if you're can afford

581
00:37:53.920 --> 00:37:57.320
to do this and you're willing to
this, they'll leave the tournament ten minutes

582
00:37:57.360 --> 00:38:00.679
early, or you know, one
person in the group of five, we'll

583
00:38:00.760 --> 00:38:04.440
leave the tournament ten minutes early and
get over there. Um, So if

584
00:38:04.480 --> 00:38:07.119
that's something you want to do,
certainly take advantage of that. But I'm

585
00:38:07.159 --> 00:38:09.400
definitely pro like every time we've even
gone out like so, somebody will go

586
00:38:09.480 --> 00:38:13.159
ahead and get the table, you
know, and then we'll all show up

587
00:38:13.960 --> 00:38:15.760
and do that. Because you know, the media people that reporters all that

588
00:38:15.840 --> 00:38:19.920
sort of stuff, they're also operating
on the seventy five minute dinner break.

589
00:38:19.920 --> 00:38:21.559
You know, they got to get
back and do their work. So,

590
00:38:22.360 --> 00:38:23.559
um, that would be our option. You know, don't just uh,

591
00:38:24.079 --> 00:38:28.119
don't just hit up the poker kitchen. There's a lot of good options around

592
00:38:28.440 --> 00:38:31.280
and sixty minutes seventy five minutes.
It does allow you to get to those

593
00:38:31.440 --> 00:38:37.239
venues within the immediate area and do
so within due time. And always set

594
00:38:37.320 --> 00:38:38.880
a time on your phone. That
is obviously something that you have to do

595
00:38:39.039 --> 00:38:44.519
so you always know when the dinner
break ends, all right, Joe Brian,

602
00:39:15.800 --> 00:39:23.239
Oh, come watch everything, that's
right. Arnie Rod writes in who would

603
00:39:23.239 --> 00:39:27.840
be victorious in the Heads of Poker
game between daniel Le Grandnew and Jonathan Little.

604
00:39:28.519 --> 00:39:30.719
I mean, I'm taking Daniel.
I said it all this week.

605
00:39:30.840 --> 00:39:35.039
It's the year of Daniel. It's
gonna be Daniel. So I'm doing it.

606
00:39:35.480 --> 00:39:37.559
That's what I got. I mean, you're on board with me?

607
00:39:37.639 --> 00:39:40.679
Yeah, of course? Okay,
good, all right? These next looks

608
00:39:40.679 --> 00:39:45.920
like four questions are all about the
unfortunate passing of Doyle Brunson and like kind

609
00:39:45.920 --> 00:39:50.599
of what the DOSP is gonna do? So Dustin Thomas wrote in I'm sure

610
00:39:50.639 --> 00:39:52.360
I won't be the first to mention
this, but with the passing of Doyle,

611
00:39:52.480 --> 00:39:57.639
thoughts on what slash how the deva
speciou commemorate the godfather of poker?

612
00:39:58.119 --> 00:40:02.079
Aaron Middlebrook rode in will there or
should there be a special to honor Doyle

613
00:40:02.119 --> 00:40:07.199
Brunson, He said, I would
like a tournament where tens and twos are

614
00:40:07.280 --> 00:40:12.000
wild the Doyle Brunson Memorial Tournament,
starting at ten after two or something like

615
00:40:12.159 --> 00:40:14.840
that. I don't think there are
any w s. Would be events with

616
00:40:14.960 --> 00:40:19.920
wild cards anyhow, and there needs
to be. Andy Heidelberg wrote in should

617
00:40:20.039 --> 00:40:24.079
it be named the Doyle Brunson Main
Event? And then Jeremy wrote in what's

618
00:40:24.320 --> 00:40:29.960
your favorite Doyle Brunson moment from the
debas? So I guess let's tackle first

619
00:40:30.039 --> 00:40:32.800
like what sort of uh, what
sort of things should they do to commemorate

620
00:40:32.880 --> 00:40:38.360
Doyle. I'm not sure what they're
gonna do. Um, I'm obviously sure

621
00:40:38.400 --> 00:40:42.199
there's gonna be something. I just
don't know exactly what. I think.

622
00:40:42.239 --> 00:40:46.280
I've heard that they could be some
kind of you know, memorial service in

623
00:40:46.400 --> 00:40:49.599
one of the theaters. Yeah,
that would be, you know, kind

624
00:40:49.639 --> 00:40:52.679
of like a tribute to celebration of
life type of stuff. Obviously, Doyle

625
00:40:52.840 --> 00:40:58.800
was you know, very much ingrained
in the poker community, very much touched

626
00:40:58.840 --> 00:41:00.679
a lot of people out there.
So they're gonna definitely be doing a lot

627
00:41:00.719 --> 00:41:07.039
of stuff. The wild cards thing
probably a gaming regulation violation at some point

628
00:41:07.519 --> 00:41:09.280
down before they used to run an
ace to five tournament with a joker.

629
00:41:09.400 --> 00:41:15.039
Yeah what year before we were born. Yeah, exactly. So yeah,

630
00:41:15.079 --> 00:41:16.519
it's a gaming thing. I don't
think we'll see that, although that is

631
00:41:16.599 --> 00:41:20.679
kind of a fun that seems like
a great home game idea. Yeah,

632
00:41:20.719 --> 00:41:23.199
and then you know, the renaming
it to the Doel Buntson main event.

633
00:41:23.559 --> 00:41:27.320
I mean, how about the player
of the year. You could name the

634
00:41:27.360 --> 00:41:29.599
player of the year off the door, you could. I mean, there's

635
00:41:29.599 --> 00:41:31.400
gonna be a naming, image and
likeness thing that has to be worked out

636
00:41:31.480 --> 00:41:35.199
there, you know, and you
can't just do it like yeah, obviously

637
00:41:35.239 --> 00:41:38.159
give the approval that's said. I
mean it might be something where the Bruntson

638
00:41:38.199 --> 00:41:40.320
family is like, yes, like
let's do that. You know, it'd

639
00:41:40.360 --> 00:41:45.280
be a great way to commemorate um
Doyle. Um. So, so we'll

640
00:41:45.280 --> 00:41:49.239
see. There's there's gonna be stuff, you know. It's obviously the timing

641
00:41:49.400 --> 00:41:52.000
is very unfortunate that it happened in
the week leading up to the World Series

642
00:41:52.000 --> 00:41:54.679
of Poker, So it's gonna very
much be at the top of everyone's mind.

643
00:41:55.159 --> 00:41:59.440
And Doyle was that big. He
was truly the godfather of poker.

644
00:42:00.480 --> 00:42:04.480
So he's going to be thought about
a lot of times. And there's gonna

645
00:42:04.480 --> 00:42:07.639
be a lot of tributes that go
on throughout the World Series of Poker.

646
00:42:07.760 --> 00:42:12.280
So we don't know exactly what's coming, but there is certainly going to be

647
00:42:12.400 --> 00:42:16.159
stuff that is coming. Yeah,
and just kind of stay tuned for everything,

648
00:42:16.239 --> 00:42:20.800
stay glued to everything to be able
to, you know, see what's

649
00:42:20.880 --> 00:42:23.199
what's going to be coming. What's
your favorite door runs a moment from the

650
00:42:23.239 --> 00:42:27.440
dibsity. I mean, there's been
a lot of fun stuff. Oh you

651
00:42:27.519 --> 00:42:30.079
go first. I mean mine,
I already talked about it when we did

652
00:42:30.119 --> 00:42:35.760
the Doyle episode on Monday earlier this
week. Just like him and this could

653
00:42:35.800 --> 00:42:37.239
just be totally recency biased, but
me, but I don't know. It

654
00:42:37.320 --> 00:42:40.000
just really spoke to like kind of
who I've always thought Doyle was, and

655
00:42:40.079 --> 00:42:44.119
that's a gambler through and through.
Is that he comes in he doesn't play

656
00:42:44.159 --> 00:42:46.440
tournaments much at all, you know, in the later stages of his life.

657
00:42:46.480 --> 00:42:51.960
And on the fifteen twenty minute breaks, he's coming into the production room

658
00:42:52.079 --> 00:42:57.320
to play Chinese poker against Morey because
he just wants to continue to gamble through

659
00:42:57.320 --> 00:43:00.519
the breaks to like stay sharp,
stay active, stay awake, whatever whatever

660
00:43:00.639 --> 00:43:06.840
may be. So like that's just
kind of my favorite Thingum. I thought

661
00:43:06.880 --> 00:43:09.639
there was a great story shared by
Gary Gates, friend of the pod on

662
00:43:10.320 --> 00:43:15.000
Twitter at Gary Gates Gary with two
rsum. He talked about working on the

663
00:43:15.039 --> 00:43:20.119
Poker Stars Big Game several years ago
and how I believe it was at South

664
00:43:20.199 --> 00:43:23.760
Point that year is where the Poker
Stars Big Game was being filmed, and

665
00:43:24.840 --> 00:43:28.760
Doyle was in the game, and
Gary brought his dad along, who was

666
00:43:28.760 --> 00:43:32.159
also named Gary Gates, and uh
got to just talking shooting the ship with

667
00:43:32.280 --> 00:43:38.239
Doyle. Doyle asked him for his
address and later on made good on you

668
00:43:38.320 --> 00:43:42.920
know, getting his address and sent
him a signed copy of every book that

669
00:43:43.000 --> 00:43:45.239
he wrote that which is just like
super cool because Doyle is the biggest thing

670
00:43:45.280 --> 00:43:47.840
in the game, right, So
that's just that's really awesome. I Mean,

671
00:43:47.880 --> 00:43:51.440
there's a lot of fun moments,
the scooter race with the Amarula slim

672
00:43:51.559 --> 00:43:52.400
like, you know, stuff like
that, like it's just yeah, my

673
00:43:52.559 --> 00:43:57.159
mine, you know, touches on
on the sign book. By twenty one,

674
00:43:57.360 --> 00:44:00.559
wsp I was helping Doyle a lot
get to his tell you know,

675
00:44:00.719 --> 00:44:02.559
helping him get some snacks and stuff. And day he played the main event

676
00:44:02.639 --> 00:44:07.559
that year, he bagged his chips. I've you know, filled out his

677
00:44:07.679 --> 00:44:10.280
chip bag, et cetera. And
I've been helping him all day, you

678
00:44:10.360 --> 00:44:15.480
know, to help him to the
bathroom, bring him Reese's pieces and bags

679
00:44:15.519 --> 00:44:19.920
of chips and pepsis and stuff.
And he reached to give me like five

680
00:44:20.000 --> 00:44:23.440
hundred dollars like a tip, and
I said no thanks, and he goes,

681
00:44:23.480 --> 00:44:25.079
no, take it, take it, take it. And I'm like,

682
00:44:25.519 --> 00:44:29.800
no thanks, and then he yelled
at me, like yelled, he

683
00:44:29.840 --> 00:44:32.119
says, take it. Said no, I don't want it. I'm just

684
00:44:32.360 --> 00:44:35.559
helping, you know, Maury's friend. He goes, okay, well,

685
00:44:35.639 --> 00:44:37.079
thank you so much, and he
left. You know, he came back

686
00:44:37.119 --> 00:44:39.760
for his day two, and Maury
text him. He's like, hey,

687
00:44:39.800 --> 00:44:43.480
he's here, can you help him. I met him, you know,

688
00:44:44.039 --> 00:44:46.880
halfway down the hallway and he was
in the old pavilion room at the Rio

689
00:44:47.599 --> 00:44:52.400
and we're waiting outside the door.
I asked security, can you help us?

690
00:44:52.880 --> 00:44:53.559
Can we get in a little bit
earlier, do you mind? He

691
00:44:53.599 --> 00:44:55.599
get yeah, no problems, he
guys in. He goes, well,

692
00:44:55.599 --> 00:45:00.920
you didn't accept my money yesterday's So
I brought this book. Will you accept

693
00:45:00.239 --> 00:45:04.039
accept this book if I sign it? And it was like the second edition

694
00:45:04.159 --> 00:45:07.360
of Super System. So he wrote
a lot like a lovely note in there,

695
00:45:07.440 --> 00:45:09.559
you know, to Tim, a
bunch of other things, and gave

696
00:45:09.599 --> 00:45:16.079
it to me. So that's my
very personal favorite moment from Doyle. I

697
00:45:16.159 --> 00:45:20.440
mean, there's a ton of Doyle
stories out there, um, a lot

698
00:45:20.480 --> 00:45:22.079
of good stuff. So so yeah, and as I said, you know,

699
00:45:22.519 --> 00:45:25.920
gonna be some tributes to Summer Long, so stay tuned for those.

700
00:45:28.119 --> 00:45:31.360
Michael Larimer wrote in it looks like
two kind of a two part question.

701
00:45:31.440 --> 00:45:35.920
Here are two different questions, so
we'll get to both of them. Michael

702
00:45:35.960 --> 00:45:39.079
said he unfortunately had to skip the
twenty twenty two WSP So Paris slash the

703
00:45:39.159 --> 00:45:43.760
horseshoe are foreign to me. Can
you give me a rundown on the basics,

704
00:45:43.960 --> 00:45:46.679
best place to relax, best place
to get food, bathrooms to avoid

705
00:45:46.760 --> 00:45:51.039
any tips would be greatly appreciated.
So we just covered the food aspect.

706
00:45:51.239 --> 00:45:53.719
A lot of options within the immediate
area, probably even up to like a

707
00:45:53.800 --> 00:45:59.199
ten to fifteen minute walking radius,
not only at those venues, but as

708
00:45:59.480 --> 00:46:02.559
I said, you can get all
the way down to Cosmo, fifteen minutes

709
00:46:02.559 --> 00:46:06.119
there, fifteen minutes back. That
sort of stuff. So a lot of

710
00:46:06.199 --> 00:46:10.760
food options available. The basics are
that it's two different venues. Okay,

711
00:46:12.039 --> 00:46:14.760
Horseshoe is on one side, Paris
is on the other side. If you

712
00:46:14.920 --> 00:46:20.880
like big flight day ones, you're
likely gonna be in the Paris side,

713
00:46:21.000 --> 00:46:23.199
okay. And that's also where the
registration is. That's where you got to

714
00:46:23.199 --> 00:46:27.800
go if you register online to do
the verification. That's where the payout area

715
00:46:27.920 --> 00:46:31.039
is. All that sort of stuff. Day two's, Day three's final table,

716
00:46:31.119 --> 00:46:36.360
mainstage, all that sort of stuff
that's over at Horseshoe. There is

717
00:46:36.400 --> 00:46:39.840
a casino some some casino floor between
the two. It's about I don't know

718
00:46:39.840 --> 00:46:44.519
what was the walk seven minutes like, it's not not that bad to walking

719
00:46:44.599 --> 00:46:47.719
from one to the other. So
yeah, parking is you know, I

720
00:46:49.000 --> 00:46:51.719
know, coming into the World Series
of Poker, a lot of people is

721
00:46:51.719 --> 00:46:52.840
coming into the World Series of Poker, moving to the strip, a lot

722
00:46:52.880 --> 00:46:57.039
of people were working about getting in
and out. The parking all that sort

723
00:46:57.039 --> 00:46:59.760
of stuff. Not that bad at
all. You can get in and out

724
00:47:00.000 --> 00:47:02.519
pretty easily. You can obviously park
at Paris. You can also park at

725
00:47:02.599 --> 00:47:07.800
Horseshoe. UM, either venue works, uh, you know pretty well.

726
00:47:07.559 --> 00:47:14.880
Um, quick walk across the the
like the UM, like the overpass walkway

727
00:47:14.960 --> 00:47:16.719
to Blagio to get over there.
That I'll take you into some of those

728
00:47:16.840 --> 00:47:22.079
MGM properties over there, because Belagio
is connected to city Center area all that

729
00:47:22.199 --> 00:47:24.480
sort of stuff. Caesar's is dagonally
across the street, Cromwell is across the

730
00:47:24.519 --> 00:47:29.320
street. So a lot of stuff
right in that area. Very well situated.

731
00:47:29.920 --> 00:47:32.639
Best place to relax. I mean, I'm a walker. I like

732
00:47:32.800 --> 00:47:37.480
to walk on my brakes, so
and you know, you can walk lots

733
00:47:37.480 --> 00:47:39.320
of places. If you're on the
Horseshoe side, you can walk all the

734
00:47:39.360 --> 00:47:43.639
way over to Paris, go down
that hallway, kind of walk all the

735
00:47:43.719 --> 00:47:45.239
way back over to where you're at
a horseshoe. You can do the same

736
00:47:45.360 --> 00:47:49.760
thing. Um from the Paris side. UM, a lot of people just

737
00:47:49.880 --> 00:47:52.559
kind of sit in the hallways,
stretch, you know that sort of stuff.

738
00:47:52.599 --> 00:47:55.400
You can head outside. You know, there's a lot of different outside

739
00:47:55.440 --> 00:47:59.920
areas where you can get in and
out um to uh you know, get

740
00:48:00.119 --> 00:48:01.639
some fresh air, get some sun, all that sort of stuff. So

741
00:48:01.719 --> 00:48:06.239
that's kind of what I do on
the brakes. Um, I don't make

742
00:48:06.320 --> 00:48:13.320
breaks. There's there's massage you give
massages though, lots of massage chairs around.

743
00:48:13.360 --> 00:48:15.760
If you want to quick you know, fifteen twenty minute massage, you

744
00:48:15.800 --> 00:48:19.440
can do that as well. Um, So yeah, bathrooms, I don't

745
00:48:19.440 --> 00:48:22.119
know if there's any bathrooms to avoid. Probably the only bathroom that I would

746
00:48:22.119 --> 00:48:29.480
avoid is the bathroom in the main
Paris hallway on break. That one gets

747
00:48:29.559 --> 00:48:34.400
jammed up a little bit. The
other bath the Horseshoe side has like infinite

748
00:48:34.440 --> 00:48:37.880
bathrooms, Like they both have an
infinite bathrooms compared to the Rio. Oh

749
00:48:37.960 --> 00:48:40.320
for sure, compared to the Rio, but the Paris one, I feel

750
00:48:40.320 --> 00:48:44.760
like it's a little bit smaller and
gets really jammed up. But you also

751
00:48:44.840 --> 00:48:49.159
have to factor in that it gets
jammed up because the Paris side houses more

752
00:48:49.239 --> 00:48:52.280
players at one time, so it
gets jammed up that way. These bathrooms

753
00:48:52.320 --> 00:48:55.199
on the Horseshoe side, you go
into them and it's like they're like a

754
00:48:55.360 --> 00:49:00.159
football field long. I'm like,
where does this even go? Like it

755
00:49:00.199 --> 00:49:04.159
just keeps going and going and going. So I really wouldn't avoid too many

756
00:49:04.199 --> 00:49:07.199
bathrooms. And there's a lot of
bathrooms around, you know, so like

757
00:49:07.320 --> 00:49:08.880
if one you think is kind of
jammed up. You could easily make it

758
00:49:09.000 --> 00:49:12.559
like to the other side to the
horseshoe, to go to the bathroom and

759
00:49:12.639 --> 00:49:16.280
come back. So a lot of
bathrooms around, which is very, very

760
00:49:16.360 --> 00:49:21.840
welcome because they weren't the best over
at the rio, all right. Michael

761
00:49:21.880 --> 00:49:24.280
then continues, this is more of
a philosophical question. He writes, I

762
00:49:24.440 --> 00:49:28.239
used to be okay at poker,
still winning at low stakes live, but

763
00:49:28.320 --> 00:49:31.760
I imagine I've fallen behind your average
wisp field. You might be surprised.

764
00:49:31.840 --> 00:49:35.960
Michael. He has an eleventh month
old at home, so he doesn't get

765
00:49:35.960 --> 00:49:37.920
to play as much as he used
to. He's been doing a bit of

766
00:49:37.960 --> 00:49:43.519
studying to at least become more familiar
with modern concepts, but confronting the fact

767
00:49:43.599 --> 00:49:45.880
that I'm kind of bad is painful. My plan is to come out the

768
00:49:46.000 --> 00:49:50.599
first weekend fire a few bullets in
the million dollar bounty, possibly the Sunday

769
00:49:50.639 --> 00:49:53.400
Deep Stack. Here's my question.
Should I grind hard on the study because

770
00:49:53.440 --> 00:49:57.679
I have ten plus years of experience
and used to be solid and I can

771
00:49:57.719 --> 00:50:00.880
get over this hump, or should
I keep the study light except the fact

772
00:50:00.960 --> 00:50:06.199
that I that any improvement to my
Roy will be negligible and just embrace my

773
00:50:06.280 --> 00:50:09.480
new found role as the fish.
Do never embrace that your new found role

774
00:50:09.480 --> 00:50:13.039
as the fish. First of all, you're probably not as much of a

775
00:50:13.119 --> 00:50:16.840
fish as you might think, and
you might even be overestimating a lot of

776
00:50:16.960 --> 00:50:23.119
theseusp fields. I understand going into
the USIP and thinking this is the World

777
00:50:23.199 --> 00:50:27.760
Series of Poker, like this is
the super Bowl of Poker, right,

778
00:50:27.880 --> 00:50:31.039
so everyone's gonna be good. Right, No, people are coming out there,

779
00:50:31.360 --> 00:50:36.119
they're taking shots, they're firing,
they're from home games, they're heroes,

780
00:50:36.199 --> 00:50:37.960
all this sort of stuff, Like, you're gonna get a lot of

781
00:50:37.000 --> 00:50:40.679
players that aren't that good. Okay, it's just how it is. You

782
00:50:40.760 --> 00:50:45.440
know, the average player is more
of just an average player. Yeah,

783
00:50:45.480 --> 00:50:49.159
you know. They're not out there
grinding a salver like a Jason Coon or

784
00:50:49.199 --> 00:50:52.480
a Stephen Chidwick like that. That's
just and then they're not as experienced and

785
00:50:52.559 --> 00:50:54.079
been in the game for twenty five
thirty years like a Dan and La Grani

786
00:50:54.119 --> 00:50:58.280
River for helmet, Like that's just
not what you're going to see on average.

787
00:50:58.320 --> 00:51:01.599
So I think you'll be fine.
That said, I don't think you

788
00:51:01.639 --> 00:51:08.119
should become complacent, and I think
you should study because it does help you.

789
00:51:08.320 --> 00:51:10.920
You can learn some modern concepts.
You know, you don't have to

790
00:51:12.039 --> 00:51:15.400
get to the point where you're an
expert using pile Solver, you're an expert

791
00:51:15.519 --> 00:51:20.559
using gto Wizard. Shout out to
gto Wizzard the sponsor, you know,

792
00:51:20.840 --> 00:51:24.920
but you can get some concepts down. You can understand how things work because

793
00:51:25.639 --> 00:51:29.639
at times you're going to run into
better players, as you would anywhere,

794
00:51:29.679 --> 00:51:30.880
not just at the world serios of
poker, whether it's your home game,

795
00:51:30.960 --> 00:51:34.920
whether it's a you know, a
weekly tournament, your local casino, whether

796
00:51:34.960 --> 00:51:37.400
it's a cash game, whatever,
maybe you're going to run into better players

797
00:51:37.400 --> 00:51:40.079
at time, and it's good to
know how they're thinking, understand the concepts,

798
00:51:40.079 --> 00:51:44.920
and then be able to apply them. So I would, you know,

799
00:51:45.039 --> 00:51:47.159
kind of do what you're doing now
where you're juggling your real life.

800
00:51:47.239 --> 00:51:51.679
Sounds like you're a family man.
You got eleventh month old at home.

801
00:51:52.079 --> 00:51:53.519
You know, I'm kind of similar. I'm trying to play a lot of

802
00:51:53.519 --> 00:51:55.599
poker, but I got a two
year old at home, like you know,

803
00:51:55.679 --> 00:51:58.920
it's it's kind of tricky. You're
trying to juggle a lot of things

804
00:51:59.079 --> 00:52:04.360
right, um, but take some
time as much as you can to work

805
00:52:04.440 --> 00:52:07.800
on your game, because studying does
help, and I wouldn't become complacent with

806
00:52:07.880 --> 00:52:10.320
it and be like, you know, I can't learn this, because you

807
00:52:10.480 --> 00:52:14.320
can learn it, you know.
And if you go into everything with an

808
00:52:14.360 --> 00:52:16.400
open mind, even even though you've
been playing for a long time, it

809
00:52:16.480 --> 00:52:21.480
might be easy to say, hmmm, no, I know how to play

810
00:52:21.519 --> 00:52:23.280
this game. Like this is how
it is. No, Like it sounds

811
00:52:23.320 --> 00:52:28.559
like you're already very much have an
open mind because you want to become familiar

812
00:52:28.559 --> 00:52:30.239
with modern concepts. As you said, well, you know, take time.

813
00:52:30.519 --> 00:52:34.199
It only takes half hour an hour
a day to kind of do that,

814
00:52:34.320 --> 00:52:37.079
and then that'll all build up over
time. It'll snowball and next thing

815
00:52:37.119 --> 00:52:40.320
you know, you'll be at a
WSP final table and probably winning a bracelet.

816
00:52:42.000 --> 00:52:45.519
That's how it is. What's up? I'm thinking the complete other way.

817
00:52:45.639 --> 00:52:49.800
I say, embrace, you'll role
as a fish an idiot, have

818
00:52:49.960 --> 00:52:53.480
some fun, just enjoy yourself.
You can have some fun. No one's

819
00:52:53.480 --> 00:52:58.719
saying not have fun. But you
know, it sounds like Michael cares about

820
00:52:58.760 --> 00:53:00.360
his game. And if he does
care about out his game, don't give

821
00:53:00.440 --> 00:53:04.480
up on if head he's playing the
million dollars bounty in the Sunday Deep Sack.

822
00:53:04.679 --> 00:53:07.840
Michael, my advice is to you
is it's a ba C. It's

823
00:53:07.880 --> 00:53:09.360
like riding a bike. It's gonna
be pretty basic. You don't have to

824
00:53:09.559 --> 00:53:13.400
worry about Jason Coon on your left
and Steven should we on you right.

825
00:53:14.000 --> 00:53:16.440
Just just play straight up. You
do fun and enjoy yourself. Yeah,

826
00:53:16.440 --> 00:53:19.719
but you should don't put the pressure
on. You should still, you know,

827
00:53:19.840 --> 00:53:22.679
brush up on some modern concepts.
I was bad. You know what

828
00:53:22.760 --> 00:53:25.679
I would do. You know what
I would do? Become a subscriber to

829
00:53:25.760 --> 00:53:30.079
poker, go watch some of the
final tables. That way, It's kind

830
00:53:30.079 --> 00:53:32.559
of like two things. It's entertainment
because you're watching poker, right, and

831
00:53:32.719 --> 00:53:36.199
you're also learning from some of the
best players in the world. You're not

832
00:53:36.280 --> 00:53:39.679
just like diving into a solver,
you know, diving into a study course

833
00:53:39.719 --> 00:53:43.599
and it feels like homework, you
know, So you can do that as

834
00:53:43.639 --> 00:53:46.519
well. All right. Uh,
Matt Foist said, I'm stoked you are

835
00:53:46.519 --> 00:53:50.000
starting out the daily podcast for the
series. Heck, yeah, we are.

836
00:53:50.119 --> 00:53:52.639
We're stoked as well. I will
be going to Vegas for to play

837
00:53:52.679 --> 00:53:55.480
in the Mystery Millions Bounty terament.
This thing is gonna be huge. I

838
00:53:55.519 --> 00:54:00.360
mean, it's gonna have to play. It's absolutely main. He's gonna be

839
00:54:00.360 --> 00:54:04.760
playing on Saturday, June third.
Can't freaking wait, says Matt. My

840
00:54:04.920 --> 00:54:07.280
question is around parking. He's staying
at Paris. He has a Caesar's Reward

841
00:54:07.360 --> 00:54:12.320
credit card, which to his understanding
allows him to get free parking because it

842
00:54:12.400 --> 00:54:15.639
did last year. But he says
there's a problem. Last time when he

843
00:54:15.760 --> 00:54:20.679
checked out of Paris using the kiosk
and no line, it automatically charged him

844
00:54:20.719 --> 00:54:22.159
for the parking than he had to
go wait in the long line to check

845
00:54:22.199 --> 00:54:25.599
out in person and get reimbursed with
the parking. Do we know a better

846
00:54:25.719 --> 00:54:30.199
way to do this? Am I
supposed to do something prior to checking out?

847
00:54:30.239 --> 00:54:34.199
Before I let you answer, because
I certainly think you're more well versed

848
00:54:34.239 --> 00:54:37.079
in this than I am. I
would say, when you check in,

849
00:54:37.360 --> 00:54:39.920
tell them this, like, yes, say I have a credit card.

850
00:54:40.519 --> 00:54:45.679
Can I check out via the express
checkout via the kiosk and not get built

851
00:54:45.679 --> 00:54:47.079
because this is what happened last time. Just be upfront with it and whatever

852
00:54:47.360 --> 00:54:50.440
they might tell you, like no, you have to check out in person,

853
00:54:50.480 --> 00:54:52.519
but I don't know what they're gonna
tell you, but I would say

854
00:54:52.559 --> 00:54:54.280
it at the beginning, not wait
till the end. By the way you've

855
00:54:54.519 --> 00:55:00.840
you've wrote this question, I'm wondering
if you upgraded you'll actual season rewards card,

856
00:55:01.440 --> 00:55:07.159
because I think getting the season Reward
credit card gives you an automatic upgrade,

857
00:55:07.159 --> 00:55:09.440
but you still have to physically go
upgrade your season reward card, and

858
00:55:09.639 --> 00:55:14.239
that's where you may have the issue
with the parking. So my suggestion will

859
00:55:14.280 --> 00:55:17.119
be do that first, leave the
garage, come back in with your Diamond

860
00:55:17.159 --> 00:55:21.320
status or whatever if it is the
seven Stars or whatever it ends up being,

861
00:55:22.440 --> 00:55:23.960
and then you should have no issues. But yeah, you know,

862
00:55:24.760 --> 00:55:28.079
clear up the headache. Maybe you
just have to wait in line again.

863
00:55:28.159 --> 00:55:30.280
It kind of sucks, but I'd
rather wait in line for thirty minutes and

864
00:55:30.440 --> 00:55:37.360
have to pay an exorbitant parking bill. Definitely. Sean Isquay rode in for

865
00:55:37.480 --> 00:55:40.559
those out of towners coming to the
WSP for only a few days and staring

866
00:55:40.800 --> 00:55:45.480
staying at or near the strip without
a car, what are your recommendations for

867
00:55:45.639 --> 00:55:51.559
and you list three things pre event
breakfast slash lunch, dinner, break spot,

868
00:55:51.920 --> 00:55:54.679
and post bust out spot to wind
down. He also said, if

869
00:55:54.719 --> 00:55:58.639
you can, please also let us
know which spots to avoid for all three.

870
00:55:59.039 --> 00:56:00.840
My spot to avoid for three is
a poker kitchen. Yep, always

871
00:56:00.840 --> 00:56:05.760
a spot a second. Um,
so that's what I would avoid, um

872
00:56:05.920 --> 00:56:12.360
pre event breakfast slash lunch spot.
So breakfast slash lunch. I would do

873
00:56:12.880 --> 00:56:19.920
the pool cafe at the Blagio.
And it's not only because and it's not

874
00:56:20.039 --> 00:56:24.239
only because my wife is the general
manager over over there. You had some

875
00:56:24.280 --> 00:56:27.800
of the food last year. I
walked my house all the way across.

876
00:56:28.880 --> 00:56:30.960
I think I walked ten thousand steps
there and ten thousand steps back. But

877
00:56:31.239 --> 00:56:34.480
it was very good. It's good. Yeah, yeah, it's very good.

878
00:56:34.599 --> 00:56:36.719
It's outside. You get some fresh
air. There is you know,

879
00:56:36.840 --> 00:56:38.360
there is a roof on it,
but it is outside, so you know,

880
00:56:38.400 --> 00:56:42.320
you get some fresh air. It's
a short walk from the Horseshoe.

881
00:56:42.760 --> 00:56:47.079
UM. I like hecks over at
um uh Paris Um. I've eaten brunch

882
00:56:47.199 --> 00:56:51.159
there a few times. I like
that spot as well. Um, if

883
00:56:51.199 --> 00:56:53.159
you can make it over to Cosmo
if you're in that area. Ach slut

884
00:56:53.679 --> 00:56:58.000
is a spot that everyone loves.
Everyone loves you. Got a friend in

885
00:56:58.119 --> 00:57:00.199
town visiting. His girlfriend was here. I said, you got to go

886
00:57:00.239 --> 00:57:02.320
to egg slot. He did.
He went. Now, the line will

887
00:57:02.360 --> 00:57:06.880
be long, okay, but it
moves pretty quickly, so don't get deterred.

888
00:57:07.400 --> 00:57:10.880
Okay. But that's another good spot
to go as well. So that

889
00:57:10.920 --> 00:57:15.679
would be like my you know,
pre event breakfast slash lunch spots. Let

890
00:57:15.760 --> 00:57:17.920
me give my versions those ones.
Here's a sneaky tip. We should have

891
00:57:17.960 --> 00:57:22.719
mentioned it in one of the questions
earlier. Ten minutes from Paris is plane

892
00:57:22.760 --> 00:57:25.519
of Hollywood, and you know what
they have there. They have a Chick

893
00:57:25.559 --> 00:57:29.280
fil A. Now a lot of
people know that. Yeah, a lot

894
00:57:29.280 --> 00:57:31.039
of people are big fans of Chick
fil A. So maybe the breakfast spot

895
00:57:31.159 --> 00:57:37.280
is the Chick fil A breakfast because
it's actually not horrible compared to another to

896
00:57:37.400 --> 00:57:40.199
other fast food outlet breakfasts. So
that's a good you know, pre event

897
00:57:40.280 --> 00:57:45.400
breakfast spot. For dinner. You
know, I'm a I kind of like

898
00:57:45.599 --> 00:57:49.800
going to the food court at the
Horseshoe getting a little SOB sandwich. When

899
00:57:49.840 --> 00:57:53.159
he says food court, it's downstairs, you have to take like the stairs

900
00:57:53.199 --> 00:57:57.159
at the escalator downstairs, right,
it's pretty much right next to if you

901
00:57:57.199 --> 00:58:00.960
see the entrance to the Jack Binion
Steakhouse, which is new. Um,

902
00:58:00.280 --> 00:58:04.079
kind of like if you're looking at
it, kind of look left a little

903
00:58:04.079 --> 00:58:06.519
bit, you'll see like it goes
down. That's where you go. That's

904
00:58:06.559 --> 00:58:08.239
what he's talking about. He's not
referring to the poker kitchen. So the

905
00:58:08.360 --> 00:58:13.639
reason I like, obviously subway is
whatever you can. There's other options there.

906
00:58:13.880 --> 00:58:15.599
I just said subway because that's an
easy choice for me. But it's

907
00:58:15.679 --> 00:58:19.639
quiet. There's not many people down
there. I feel like people don't know

908
00:58:19.719 --> 00:58:22.519
about and I can just relax,
you know, you can just you know,

909
00:58:22.719 --> 00:58:24.920
check your arcade down there, right, Maybe that could be a diner,

910
00:58:25.159 --> 00:58:28.719
a mini golf. There's a minigolf
down there. Sounds like a good

911
00:58:28.960 --> 00:58:31.519
dinner. Bak spot. Yeah,
but um, when are we talking post

912
00:58:31.599 --> 00:58:35.800
bust outs. I'm a big fan, and I know you are a big

913
00:58:35.880 --> 00:58:37.519
fan. A little bit of All
you can Eat sushi? Well, yeah,

914
00:58:37.679 --> 00:58:40.840
of course, so I'm gonna put
my all you can Eat Sushi spot.

915
00:58:42.039 --> 00:58:45.599
It's sushi Spring Mountain and Decata.
You're blowing up our spot. Fine,

916
00:58:45.760 --> 00:58:50.880
Look we we blew up Uma and
then it went south. I fear

917
00:58:50.960 --> 00:58:55.320
we might be doing this and south. I fear we might be doing the

918
00:58:55.400 --> 00:59:00.199
same. So hopefully, hopefully we
gave you um a lot of options there

919
00:59:00.360 --> 00:59:04.239
overall, as we talked about earlier, there's a lot of options around,

920
00:59:05.760 --> 00:59:08.480
mostly on the paraside for food that
you can find that you can go hang

921
00:59:08.559 --> 00:59:14.400
out. So that's what we would
do. Yeah, Henry Conrad, I've

922
00:59:14.440 --> 00:59:15.679
never been to the USP, but
would love to come in the next few

923
00:59:15.760 --> 00:59:21.480
years as I'm coming from England and
would be playing smaller buying events. What

924
00:59:21.639 --> 00:59:25.440
sort of schedule would you recommend?
You can pretty much pick any weekend and

925
00:59:25.559 --> 00:59:30.679
you're gonna get a good chunk of
stuff to play, like a Thursday through

926
00:59:30.760 --> 00:59:32.840
a Monday trip, that sort of
stuff. There's you know, most coming

927
00:59:32.880 --> 00:59:36.079
from England, don't you want to
come for a little longer than a week

928
00:59:36.159 --> 00:59:37.719
Well, I don't know. I
don't know what the schedule is, but

929
00:59:37.800 --> 00:59:40.199
it sounds like, you know,
he's he would want to target the best

930
00:59:40.280 --> 00:59:44.039
time period for like some smaller buying
events. If he's coming for like a

931
00:59:44.159 --> 00:59:46.960
longer period of time and he can
do it, then I would say probably

932
00:59:47.159 --> 00:59:52.559
start your trip for with either the
like the Monster Stack or the Millionaire Maker,

933
00:59:52.920 --> 00:59:55.960
and then lead into that weekend you
can play some of the smaller stuff

934
00:59:57.000 --> 01:00:00.719
throughout the weekend as well. So
that's kind of what I would do,

935
01:00:00.199 --> 01:00:04.079
you know, if I was coming
in and listen. Also, I've always

936
01:00:04.119 --> 01:00:07.880
I always think now that like that
kind of that weekend like right before or

937
01:00:08.000 --> 01:00:12.440
that that week or weekend right before
the Doubs Beamin events, UM has the

938
01:00:12.519 --> 01:00:15.800
mini main events, has some other
stuff going on. Then, UM that's

939
01:00:15.840 --> 01:00:17.760
obviously when the live satellites will pick
up. You know. So yeah you

940
01:00:17.880 --> 01:00:21.440
might you know you're saying you're gonna
play the smaller buyans. You might not

941
01:00:21.480 --> 01:00:23.280
play the Doubs be main event,
but maybe you play a five hundred dollars

942
01:00:23.320 --> 01:00:25.639
mega, a one thousand dollars mega, and then you get into the main

943
01:00:25.719 --> 01:00:29.760
event. You know. Yeah,
so that that's um, that's what I

944
01:00:29.800 --> 01:00:32.280
would target. But pretty much any
weekend. Um, it sounds like this

945
01:00:32.440 --> 01:00:37.039
opening weekend now with this mystery millions
up front, if they keep it that

946
01:00:37.119 --> 01:00:40.320
way going forward, UM, sounds
like a weekend you really can't miss.

947
01:00:40.440 --> 01:00:45.760
So maybe that's another weekend that you
target, But UM, I think pretty

948
01:00:45.840 --> 01:00:49.440
much any weekend. Like there was
a guy on a Twitter space the other

949
01:00:49.519 --> 01:00:52.960
day that I was on with keV
Math and you know he was. He

950
01:00:52.400 --> 01:00:58.320
was saying that he hoped um that
the schedule came out earlier because his work,

951
01:00:58.400 --> 01:01:00.880
he had to lock in his time
off much earlier than Like, when

952
01:01:00.920 --> 01:01:06.679
the schedule comes out in January February, they're not going to release the schedule

953
01:01:06.719 --> 01:01:08.679
in September. Like that's just not
gonna happen. There's too many moving parts,

954
01:01:08.760 --> 01:01:13.480
you know. Whatever that said,
What I suggested was, I said,

955
01:01:13.480 --> 01:01:16.840
you can pretty much book any weekend
blind from June to to you know,

956
01:01:17.119 --> 01:01:21.679
July tenth, right, and you're
gonna get good stuff, Like you

957
01:01:21.760 --> 01:01:24.519
know you're gonna have like the Millionaire
Maker, the Monster Stack is gonna fall

958
01:01:24.599 --> 01:01:28.360
somewhere in one of those things that
you can find. You're gonna have all

959
01:01:28.400 --> 01:01:30.119
these deep stack events now that you
know there's fifteen hundred, no limits,

960
01:01:30.159 --> 01:01:34.400
etc. Like you're gonna find stuff
if you just blindly book a weekend,

961
01:01:34.719 --> 01:01:37.000
you know, from a Friday through
a Sunday, you're gonna find stuff at

962
01:01:37.039 --> 01:01:39.639
the lower price point to play.
Sp has done a really good job in

963
01:01:39.840 --> 01:01:45.920
recent years of catering to the lower
buying players, So you will find stuff

964
01:01:45.400 --> 01:01:51.079
every single weekend out there. So
that's what I would do. You got

965
01:01:51.119 --> 01:01:54.920
anything to add no, okay,
moving on. These next three questions all

966
01:01:55.000 --> 01:02:01.519
grouped together. So Rolando Quinonas writes, if players prereg and pay online for

967
01:02:01.599 --> 01:02:06.159
an event through Bravo, is your
stack in play immediately or do you receive

968
01:02:06.239 --> 01:02:09.199
a full starting stack? Steve Pollen
wrote what will the rules be for whether

969
01:02:09.239 --> 01:02:12.920
stacks will be in play if you
register before the start of a tournament?

970
01:02:13.760 --> 01:02:16.679
Dave Ritchie David Richie wrote in when
you pre register, are your chips in

971
01:02:16.719 --> 01:02:21.000
play at the start of the event
or will you arrive asking about the mystery

972
01:02:21.039 --> 01:02:27.599
million specifically, so, chips I
believe will be in play from the start,

973
01:02:28.280 --> 01:02:31.840
and I checked with some people out
there to verify that this would be

974
01:02:31.880 --> 01:02:36.000
true, and everyone seems to believe
that, yes, chips will be in

975
01:02:36.039 --> 01:02:38.119
play from the start. There is
a likelihood that in the multi flight events,

976
01:02:38.199 --> 01:02:43.039
because things are so big and crazy, that stacks don't go out until

977
01:02:43.039 --> 01:02:45.960
you sit down. But if you
pre register, is very likely that your

978
01:02:46.039 --> 01:02:50.159
chips will be in there from the
start. So you should show up on

979
01:02:50.280 --> 01:02:52.599
time ready to go, or if
you show up a little bit late,

980
01:02:52.719 --> 01:02:57.280
you should you know, be aware
that your chips will probably be blinded or

981
01:02:57.280 --> 01:03:02.239
antied out a little bit, So
just consider that overall. If you're coming

982
01:03:02.280 --> 01:03:07.199
out, I know, you know
David Richie here asked specifically about the Mystery

983
01:03:07.239 --> 01:03:09.840
Millions, which is one of the
very early events in the series. If

984
01:03:09.880 --> 01:03:13.960
you're going out for a little bit
of later event and this is something that's

985
01:03:14.519 --> 01:03:17.280
a concern to you, you can
probably pay attention to the chatter online on

986
01:03:17.360 --> 01:03:21.840
social media, and you know you'll
get a sense of like what's happening throughout

987
01:03:22.480 --> 01:03:24.719
because you know there is a lot
of moving parts. There are adjustments that

988
01:03:24.840 --> 01:03:29.000
made on the fly. But I
would plan that your chips will be in

989
01:03:29.039 --> 01:03:31.000
the play from the start if your
pre register, So if your event starts

990
01:03:31.000 --> 01:03:35.280
at noon, if your event starts
at eleven, be there at eleven or

991
01:03:35.320 --> 01:03:37.320
noon. You know, I told
one about our mutual friends was asking these

992
01:03:37.360 --> 01:03:42.280
exact questions. I was like,
if you're going to be there on time,

993
01:03:42.480 --> 01:03:45.760
just register the not before. If
you're not sure if you're going to

994
01:03:45.800 --> 01:03:49.039
be there on time, just wait, wait, you know, make sure

995
01:03:49.039 --> 01:03:51.280
your fast tracks lad it up and
you can do it when you get there,

996
01:03:51.960 --> 01:03:53.559
just so you don't run this risk
or have you know, a couple

997
01:03:53.679 --> 01:03:58.199
hundred or a couple of thousand,
even chips blinded off, so kind of

998
01:03:58.280 --> 01:04:00.079
have a feel of how you're gonna
pro the event you're gonna play, if

999
01:04:00.079 --> 01:04:02.280
you're gonna if you know you're gonna
be there on time, you know,

1000
01:04:02.400 --> 01:04:05.760
register the night before and make sure
you're there a couple of minutes earlier.

1001
01:04:05.840 --> 01:04:11.440
I think that's the easiest way.
Yep, Scott Evans, Is David Tuckman

1002
01:04:11.519 --> 01:04:15.360
going to be providing live stream commentary? I'm not sure, to be honest,

1003
01:04:15.440 --> 01:04:18.679
I don't even know who's providing the
last We are not part of the

1004
01:04:19.039 --> 01:04:24.440
cool kids to be told who's commentating
except for the ones that you're commentating.

1005
01:04:25.000 --> 01:04:29.320
UM, I'm going to assume most
likely, but I actually don't know.

1006
01:04:29.880 --> 01:04:32.159
I think he is on some um, but don't hold us to that,

1007
01:04:32.280 --> 01:04:36.280
Scott, because you know, we're
living in a different world than the production

1008
01:04:36.320 --> 01:04:39.760
team a lot of times, and
we're not you know, in all those

1009
01:04:39.840 --> 01:04:44.920
conversations. Yeah, exactly. Jeff
Linton wrote, what's the bounty range for

1010
01:04:45.000 --> 01:04:49.199
event number three? That is the
Mystery Millions event? Obviously they have the

1011
01:04:49.599 --> 01:04:54.559
million dollars top bounty prize, but
is the balltom going to be a thousand?

1012
01:04:54.679 --> 01:04:58.599
Which is the buying twenty five hundred
or something else. Um, so

1013
01:04:58.719 --> 01:05:01.599
yeah, probably twenty five, it
would be. They would be the It

1014
01:05:01.599 --> 01:05:04.719
would probably be a mean cash right, surely. I mean I have no

1015
01:05:04.800 --> 01:05:09.880
idea too, Yeah, I mean
yeah, I don't know. I mean,

1016
01:05:09.960 --> 01:05:14.360
I'm would they go as low as
five hundred, like, would they

1017
01:05:14.440 --> 01:05:16.119
do that? I don't, I
don't know. You know, that's going

1018
01:05:16.199 --> 01:05:19.360
to depend on I can't remember what
they did last year. I didn't really

1019
01:05:19.400 --> 01:05:24.079
follow that one that much. But
they're they're I mean, the bounties are

1020
01:05:24.239 --> 01:05:27.679
all over the place. I mean
they're from whatever the lowest is. Let's

1021
01:05:27.679 --> 01:05:30.320
say it's a thousand, let's say
it's two thousand, whatever it might be.

1022
01:05:30.960 --> 01:05:33.239
But then you know, there's five
thousand, there's ten thousand, there's

1023
01:05:33.840 --> 01:05:36.800
you know, twenty five thousand,
and fifty thousand, like I don't know

1024
01:05:38.000 --> 01:05:42.400
exactly how many they're gonna do in
between whatever, like kind of that next

1025
01:05:42.480 --> 01:05:45.519
highest is and then the um the
million up top, you know, but

1026
01:05:45.679 --> 01:05:49.960
there's a ton and the lower ones
there's obviously more volume of them available,

1027
01:05:49.960 --> 01:05:54.400
Like there might be twenty twenty five
K bounties available, you know, all

1028
01:05:54.440 --> 01:05:57.280
that sort of stuff. So there's
there's a whole bunch of different tiers,

1029
01:05:57.320 --> 01:05:59.639
and I believe, you know,
going back to a tim of sint earlier

1030
01:05:59.639 --> 01:06:01.880
about the iPads, I think when
you do it on the iPad, if

1031
01:06:01.920 --> 01:06:04.039
you get one of the really low
ones, it just shows it on the

1032
01:06:04.079 --> 01:06:06.480
screen. It just shows like,
Okay, you want two thousand dollars,

1033
01:06:06.920 --> 01:06:10.320
but if you have like a bigger
one, it gives you. It shows

1034
01:06:10.320 --> 01:06:12.760
you like a chest and then you
have to go to the treasure chest and

1035
01:06:12.800 --> 01:06:15.719
actually draw. So if you get
if you play this, you pull a

1036
01:06:15.800 --> 01:06:17.719
bounty, you tap the iPad or
do whatever you gotta do, and it

1037
01:06:17.800 --> 01:06:20.960
shows you like that treasure chest or
whatever they're doing this year, you know

1038
01:06:21.119 --> 01:06:26.159
you're gonna get like minimum whatever it
is, like minimum twenty five k,

1039
01:06:26.280 --> 01:06:28.360
minimum ten k, like you know
you're gonna get You're like, okay,

1040
01:06:28.480 --> 01:06:30.320
like I'm gonna get a good chunk
of money here because I gotta go to

1041
01:06:30.400 --> 01:06:32.559
the bin and pull. And the
only people that go to the bin and

1042
01:06:32.599 --> 01:06:36.159
pull are bigger prizes. And then
they also have a shot at the million,

1043
01:06:36.360 --> 01:06:39.960
right, Like you're never gonna pull
the million on the iPad, at

1044
01:06:40.000 --> 01:06:42.920
least if they did it like they
did last year. Right, So so

1045
01:06:43.079 --> 01:06:47.960
yeah, that's that's our talk there
on the Bounty Ranges, and war Woods

1046
01:06:48.000 --> 01:06:53.440
said, will THESP main event have
more satellites this year? I mean,

1047
01:06:53.599 --> 01:06:57.559
yeah, I think so. They
had. They had their main event Mania

1048
01:06:57.639 --> 01:07:01.360
Weekend that they qualified I believe over
one hundred, probably around one hundred and

1049
01:07:01.400 --> 01:07:08.440
fifty people for that gig poker slash
CLUBGG is putting in six hundred people.

1050
01:07:09.039 --> 01:07:14.480
They're gonna have satellites running at THESP
this year. At the Lives, they

1051
01:07:14.519 --> 01:07:17.280
have a whole bunch of megas that
lead into THESP man events. They obviously

1052
01:07:17.360 --> 01:07:21.760
have the stuff that happens online.
It's already started online for the WSP dot

1053
01:07:21.840 --> 01:07:28.360
com satellites here in the States.
I don't think I've seen the announcement for

1054
01:07:28.599 --> 01:07:30.000
the twenty five seats scramble, but
they did it last year, so I'm

1055
01:07:30.000 --> 01:07:33.599
assuming they're gonna do it again this
year. So yeah. I would also

1056
01:07:33.679 --> 01:07:40.519
say that they're not running the sitting
goes, the single table sitting goes,

1057
01:07:40.599 --> 01:07:45.079
which would tell me that they're kind
of clearing space to possibly have more satellites.

1058
01:07:45.559 --> 01:07:47.840
And honestly, if the UBASC is
making as big of a push as

1059
01:07:47.920 --> 01:07:53.840
it is to break the field size
record from two thousand and six, then

1060
01:07:53.920 --> 01:07:56.599
they should have more satellites, right, Like that would only make sense.

1061
01:07:57.280 --> 01:08:00.679
What can Like they've basically gone out
and all but guaranteed that this is going

1062
01:08:00.760 --> 01:08:03.480
to be a record year, right. You know, everyone's confident in it.

1063
01:08:03.599 --> 01:08:06.440
I'm confident in it. Tim is
confident in it. If you listen

1064
01:08:06.480 --> 01:08:10.679
to our episode yesterday, you know
Daniel Lagron you is confident and everyone is

1065
01:08:10.719 --> 01:08:15.599
confident that we are seeing a record
WSP maniment field size in twenty twenty three.

1066
01:08:15.279 --> 01:08:18.319
So if you're gonna do that,
and you're gonna be like, this

1067
01:08:18.520 --> 01:08:21.119
is gonna be the record year,
and you're gonna say it so often and

1068
01:08:21.239 --> 01:08:26.079
promote it like it's going to happen, then you're probably gonna do your damnedest

1069
01:08:26.159 --> 01:08:29.880
to have as many satellites and get
as many people qualify into this thing.

1070
01:08:30.359 --> 01:08:32.359
So yes, I think that there
will be a crap ton of satellites.

1071
01:08:32.399 --> 01:08:38.000
I would stay tuned top on Twitter, follow kevmathwsip dot com, all that

1072
01:08:38.079 --> 01:08:41.720
sort of stuff, so that you
are aware of what is happening. Andrew

1073
01:08:41.800 --> 01:08:45.520
Venette said, could you walk listeners
through the process of taking notes at the

1074
01:08:45.640 --> 01:08:50.399
table where he says, obviously you're
both very accomplished at live reporting and detail

1075
01:08:50.479 --> 01:08:54.000
the hands you play, so it
would be great to hear about how you

1076
01:08:54.159 --> 01:08:57.840
go about doing that. Andrew said, I personally find it hard to take

1077
01:08:57.960 --> 01:09:01.239
notes on the previous hand while still
trying to follow the action of the current

1078
01:09:01.279 --> 01:09:03.720
one, So any advice you have
would be a huge help. Go ahead.

1079
01:09:04.159 --> 01:09:09.159
Wait, is he s talking from
a playing perspective or I think he's

1080
01:09:09.199 --> 01:09:13.399
basically saying that because we have the
experience on live reporters, it probably helps

1081
01:09:13.439 --> 01:09:16.880
us a lot when we're doing it
when we're also playing. So do we

1082
01:09:16.960 --> 01:09:21.119
have an advice for anyone out there? I am not as good as Donald,

1083
01:09:21.399 --> 01:09:27.039
so I didn't take any notes,
but I have a very decent memory

1084
01:09:27.159 --> 01:09:30.119
when it comes to hand recognition.
I know some people will have a terrible

1085
01:09:30.479 --> 01:09:32.000
and they can't remember any part of
the hand. I can kind of remember

1086
01:09:32.039 --> 01:09:36.039
the whole thing, So I don't
actually take any notes. So I just

1087
01:09:36.119 --> 01:09:40.359
want to put that before you give
us an actual, real reason that will

1088
01:09:40.399 --> 01:09:47.720
help him. I mean, practice
makes perfect. Like we've reported on thousands,

1089
01:09:47.880 --> 01:09:50.199
millions of hand I don't even know
how many over the years, like,

1090
01:09:50.319 --> 01:09:54.479
so it just comes with that repetition, It comes with being able to

1091
01:09:54.600 --> 01:09:59.159
do it right. So I use
the notes on the notes app on my

1092
01:09:59.239 --> 01:10:01.479
iPhone and I just plug the hands
in, you know, And I will

1093
01:10:01.560 --> 01:10:05.680
sometimes see other players doing the same
thing. Um, I do it a

1094
01:10:05.800 --> 01:10:09.520
certain way. I do it kind
of very much like I would write a

1095
01:10:09.600 --> 01:10:14.640
hand if I was live reporting.
Yeah, but but you don't have to

1096
01:10:14.720 --> 01:10:15.640
do like that. You could just
write, you know, like so,

1097
01:10:16.000 --> 01:10:18.680
Like you could write like so and
so raised I call blah blah blah whatever

1098
01:10:18.920 --> 01:10:23.359
you know. And and sometimes it
might just be like you might just want

1099
01:10:23.399 --> 01:10:30.439
to take down a couple of like
quick notes that later on jog your memory

1100
01:10:30.560 --> 01:10:33.079
for exactly what happened. Like it
might be hard to just remember something cold

1101
01:10:33.199 --> 01:10:35.239
much later on if you're driving home
and you're like, oh, I wish

1102
01:10:35.239 --> 01:10:39.119
I could remember that hand. But
if you just write down a couple of

1103
01:10:39.159 --> 01:10:43.800
things like aces versus kings, he
bet seventy on the turn, like you

1104
01:10:43.880 --> 01:10:45.840
know, you can like put something
down like that and then you're like,

1105
01:10:45.880 --> 01:10:46.720
oh, yeah, I remember,
like it was a spot on the turn.

1106
01:10:46.760 --> 01:10:49.359
I was wondering about his bet sizing
like okay, and then that can

1107
01:10:49.399 --> 01:10:55.800
trigger something. So um, I
would say, just practice it, get

1108
01:10:55.960 --> 01:11:00.800
get it down. Um, You
can even do things like um, watching

1109
01:11:00.119 --> 01:11:05.840
hands, watch YouTube, watch poker, go whatever it is and watch hands,

1110
01:11:06.319 --> 01:11:11.119
pause the video and see if you
can recall what just happened, you

1111
01:11:11.199 --> 01:11:15.720
know, Like I do that sometimes
when I'm going into do commentary, just

1112
01:11:15.800 --> 01:11:20.960
so I can kind of get my
my juices flowing a little bit to getting

1113
01:11:21.039 --> 01:11:26.119
that right that right zone for like
what's about to happen. Just like you

1114
01:11:26.199 --> 01:11:29.039
know, an NBA player would take
warm up shots before he goes out and

1115
01:11:29.119 --> 01:11:30.760
plays a game. Just like you
know, an NFL wide receiver is going

1116
01:11:30.840 --> 01:11:33.680
to be catching some passes or running
some routes. You know. Yeah,

1117
01:11:33.680 --> 01:11:38.239
it might not be total game speed
or in a game environment, but you

1118
01:11:38.359 --> 01:11:41.399
still got to get those reps in, get that muscle memory go, and

1119
01:11:41.479 --> 01:11:44.840
get that mind memory going, all
that sort of stuff. So yeah,

1120
01:11:45.000 --> 01:11:47.359
I mean, just practice it honestly
if you have to. Honestly, some

1121
01:11:47.479 --> 01:11:50.119
people use pen and paper. Yeah, I mean, I mean, like,

1122
01:11:50.640 --> 01:11:53.840
if we're being really honest, I
was thos. We mess around a

1123
01:11:53.880 --> 01:11:57.680
little bit, you know, use
the notes app make sure you write down

1124
01:11:57.840 --> 01:12:00.239
you know them bone stuff obviously,
what the blinds, the stacks involved,

1125
01:12:00.720 --> 01:12:04.000
Um, you know, cards and
suits, et cetera. You don't need

1126
01:12:04.079 --> 01:12:08.199
to write down or this guy blinked
a lot, you know, I don't

1127
01:12:08.199 --> 01:12:11.479
think you need to do that.
Yeah, and just yeah, the more

1128
01:12:11.600 --> 01:12:15.199
details you kind of put in relative
to the actual hand um and then you

1129
01:12:15.279 --> 01:12:16.800
can revisit later or in a few
days. It's all there. It's when

1130
01:12:16.840 --> 01:12:20.479
you try, and you know,
you try and remember little details. Are

1131
01:12:20.600 --> 01:12:24.159
I think that it was a diamond
or a club? I'm not short,

1132
01:12:24.279 --> 01:12:27.920
so yeah, just take decent notes. We all have iPhones or androids these

1133
01:12:28.000 --> 01:12:30.079
days with a note app. Just
put it in there. You should be

1134
01:12:30.159 --> 01:12:34.560
fine. Yep, Henry Twoey wrote, where can I find you guys?

1135
01:12:35.000 --> 01:12:40.840
Or the poker real media stand during
the World Series. I mean everywhere rolling

1136
01:12:40.880 --> 01:12:46.520
around Tim o'briby wearing some flashy purple
jacket or pants. He should I get

1137
01:12:46.560 --> 01:12:51.560
matching white pants, matching purple pants. O my god, No, probably

1138
01:12:51.560 --> 01:12:55.680
won't. Donnie's gonna laugh at me. No, We're gonna be everywhere.

1139
01:12:55.680 --> 01:12:58.159
We'll be in Paris, We'll be
at the horse Shoe. You'll find us

1140
01:12:58.159 --> 01:13:00.079
at the coffee place. We're gonna
be on the main stage. We're gonna

1141
01:13:00.079 --> 01:13:02.720
be on the whole shoot. He's
gonna be doing commentary. Yeah, I

1142
01:13:02.760 --> 01:13:05.680
mean, we're we're gonna be walking
around a lot. So if you do

1143
01:13:05.880 --> 01:13:09.840
say this, come say hello.
Yeah, you know we'll have don't be

1144
01:13:09.880 --> 01:13:12.279
shy. We love chatting with the
fans, we love chatting with the listeners

1145
01:13:12.319 --> 01:13:15.560
of the Poker Girl podcast. So
we'll be rolling around and I'm guessing we're

1146
01:13:15.560 --> 01:13:18.600
gonna be there every single day,
so at some point you will probably see

1147
01:13:18.680 --> 01:13:23.119
us. Yes, um, if
you do want to meet us and you're

1148
01:13:23.159 --> 01:13:25.600
there, you can always tweet at
us, ask us where we are,

1149
01:13:25.920 --> 01:13:29.680
what you're doing, that sort of
thing. So so yeah, m Ryan

1150
01:13:30.079 --> 01:13:34.279
Geiss rights, when playing a Saturday
ten am fifteen hundred, is it best

1151
01:13:34.479 --> 01:13:40.680
to make a dinner reservation for about
seven fifteen pm. Yes and no.

1152
01:13:40.920 --> 01:13:45.439
So I looked up on the schedule
some of the fifteen hundred dollar buying events

1153
01:13:45.520 --> 01:13:50.399
that have Saturday start days. We
got the Monster Stack Day one B,

1154
01:13:50.560 --> 01:13:54.560
we got the Millionaire Maker Day one
B, we got the Closer Day one

1155
01:13:54.600 --> 01:13:59.119
B. Those are all going to
be absolutely mammoth poker tournaments at the fifteen

1156
01:13:59.159 --> 01:14:02.439
hundred dollar price points. The Monster
Sacks on Saturday June seventeenth for one B,

1157
01:14:02.640 --> 01:14:08.079
the Millionaire Maker on Saturday June twenty
fourth, and then July fifteenth,

1158
01:14:08.279 --> 01:14:11.920
also a Saturday, the closer.
That's one B for that each of those

1159
01:14:12.000 --> 01:14:15.760
days. Per the structure sheet Ones
dot com, there is a seventy five

1160
01:14:15.800 --> 01:14:20.239
minute dinner break at approximately seven pm. I would make the dinner reservation for

1161
01:14:21.600 --> 01:14:27.199
seven oh five if you can do
that. And I would also take the

1162
01:14:27.279 --> 01:14:30.399
advice that we said earlier, try
and get one of your friends to go

1163
01:14:30.760 --> 01:14:32.520
and get the table. You know, even if you do make a reservation

1164
01:14:32.640 --> 01:14:35.479
and it's under your name, Ryan, you know, have one of your

1165
01:14:35.560 --> 01:14:40.600
friends head on over there and grab
the table. That way you get there

1166
01:14:40.640 --> 01:14:43.319
and you're not waiting extra five to
ten minutes. We're all on a time

1167
01:14:43.399 --> 01:14:45.680
crunch here during the World Series of
Poker, you know, we want to

1168
01:14:45.760 --> 01:14:50.119
allow adequate time to kind of sit
down, decompress, eat some food,

1169
01:14:50.159 --> 01:14:56.520
and not be super rushed and you
know, running tune from the different venues

1170
01:14:56.560 --> 01:14:59.960
on a dinner break. So per
thebesp structure sheet, there is a say,

1171
01:15:00.000 --> 01:15:02.359
any five minute dinner break on those
days for those events that I listed

1172
01:15:02.600 --> 01:15:09.039
at seven pm or approximately seven pm
UM, So try and schedule the reservation

1173
01:15:09.159 --> 01:15:12.000
for I would say, I would
say no later than seven fifteen. For

1174
01:15:12.119 --> 01:15:14.680
sure. You know you're obviously you're
gonna need a little bit of time to

1175
01:15:14.680 --> 01:15:17.079
go over there. But if you
send someone there ahead of time to grab

1176
01:15:17.199 --> 01:15:20.560
that table to sit down, and
then you join right after, that is

1177
01:15:20.600 --> 01:15:25.960
the best way to go about it. Janet Collins, is Phil Hellmuth going

1178
01:15:26.039 --> 01:15:29.119
to win the WSP? Finally?
Phil's your boy? So you answer this

1179
01:15:29.279 --> 01:15:30.720
question, which I don't. I
don't really know, Janet, I don't

1180
01:15:30.760 --> 01:15:34.239
really know what this question means because
he's he's won sixteen Brasits and he's won

1181
01:15:34.279 --> 01:15:39.319
the main event. Let me answer
this is a Player of the year.

1182
01:15:39.359 --> 01:15:45.760
Phil is the He's he's number one
on every list. Are you asking is

1183
01:15:45.760 --> 01:15:49.520
he gonna win a brace It this
year? Yeah, of course he is.

1184
01:15:50.199 --> 01:15:54.560
I can't say no. He's the
god, the legend, the best.

1185
01:15:54.640 --> 01:15:57.479
And you guys, listen to our
WSP Predictions episode. You know I'm

1186
01:15:57.720 --> 01:16:00.800
fading Phil with this year. So
no, he's not gonna win THESP.

1187
01:16:00.880 --> 01:16:04.479
Finally, as far as I'm concerned, Anne Marie Dissidario Hope, I said

1188
01:16:04.479 --> 01:16:09.359
your last name correctly, Anne Marie. I'm coming next month for the first

1189
01:16:09.399 --> 01:16:13.359
time and could use any advice you
have especially about thesp cage. I think

1190
01:16:13.479 --> 01:16:17.720
wiring my money there is my best
choice. I mean that depends on I

1191
01:16:17.800 --> 01:16:21.800
guess your comfort level and how much
money you're traveling with, and then your

1192
01:16:21.840 --> 01:16:26.119
comfort level with how much money you're
traveling with. If you're coming with a

1193
01:16:26.279 --> 01:16:30.039
thousand bucks and you're comfortable traveling with
a thousand bucks in your pocket, I

1194
01:16:30.159 --> 01:16:32.720
think you're fine to do that.
If you're sending over fifty K, I

1195
01:16:32.800 --> 01:16:35.640
mean, yeah, probably don't put
it in your backpack. You might want

1196
01:16:35.640 --> 01:16:41.000
to wire it on over, like
a lot of the higher buying players will

1197
01:16:41.159 --> 01:16:45.039
do. As we talked about throughout
this podcast and earlier, you can take

1198
01:16:45.079 --> 01:16:48.159
advantage of the online registration if you
head on over to Bravo Poker Live dot

1199
01:16:48.199 --> 01:16:51.119
com, get yourself set up there, and then once you arrive you'll have

1200
01:16:51.199 --> 01:16:57.560
to go through that one time verification
process over at the Champagne Ballroom at Paris.

1201
01:16:58.680 --> 01:17:00.800
Larry ingram right, I have been
a subscriber from the beginning. I

1202
01:17:00.920 --> 01:17:04.720
enjoy your covered Thank you, Larry
Love It would it be possible to cover

1203
01:17:04.920 --> 01:17:10.800
more of the tables, especially in
the first few days. It isn't necessary

1204
01:17:10.840 --> 01:17:15.079
to see their whole cards. Sometimes
better not to see them. I think

1205
01:17:15.119 --> 01:17:17.800
we're gonna be doing some of that
this year. Larry Tim kind of hinted

1206
01:17:17.880 --> 01:17:23.439
on it earlier. We are going
to be covering some earlier days before the

1207
01:17:23.560 --> 01:17:27.159
final table for some select events,
So that's going to be out there.

1208
01:17:27.600 --> 01:17:30.439
We're doing that for of course,
we do it for the w SP main

1209
01:17:30.479 --> 01:17:32.479
event, right we start coverage on
day one, it'll go all the way

1210
01:17:32.479 --> 01:17:34.720
through to the final table, so
you're going to see some stuff there.

1211
01:17:35.960 --> 01:17:40.159
Hopefully we'll be bouncing around the tournament
field when we're doing that, you know,

1212
01:17:40.239 --> 01:17:43.720
getting some b roll shots, some
looking I think Jeff Platt's going to

1213
01:17:43.760 --> 01:17:45.359
be on the sideline, Natalie Body's
going to be on the sideline, So

1214
01:17:45.760 --> 01:17:50.800
we'll have them hopefully bringing in some
additional coverage of all the events, everything

1215
01:17:50.840 --> 01:17:54.319
that's happening at the World Series Poker. We got Ben Mints this year,

1216
01:17:54.359 --> 01:17:57.840
who's like kind of a quote unquote
live reporter for us, who the heck

1217
01:17:57.920 --> 01:18:00.279
knows what he's gonna be doing.
We're basically just letting the crazy man Mincy

1218
01:18:00.399 --> 01:18:04.640
loose. The Destroyer is going to
be out there doing whatever he wants content

1219
01:18:04.720 --> 01:18:09.760
wise. So so yeah, I
think our coverage this year is going to

1220
01:18:09.920 --> 01:18:14.560
be better than it ever has been
in terms of providing as much coverage and

1221
01:18:14.720 --> 01:18:16.920
access to the world ties of poker
then you know has been there. So

1222
01:18:17.800 --> 01:18:21.680
um yeah, I think we're gonna
be doing some of that. Dianna Keller

1223
01:18:21.920 --> 01:18:25.800
wondering how I can get a ticket
to be in the gallery to watch.

1224
01:18:26.520 --> 01:18:29.920
Just show up, just show up. Yeah, Well, then is tricky

1225
01:18:30.039 --> 01:18:34.399
the final table. The final table
is tricky because thesp main set, the

1226
01:18:34.880 --> 01:18:41.960
stage around the final table has limited
seating. Of course, Okay, last

1227
01:18:42.079 --> 01:18:45.960
year they had a giant projector screen
and some additional seating set out kind of

1228
01:18:46.000 --> 01:18:49.720
on the outer floor area in the
horseshoe, in the in the main ballroom,

1229
01:18:50.279 --> 01:18:54.600
so there will be that. But
this doesn't require a ticket. Like

1230
01:18:54.680 --> 01:18:57.239
you can show up and you can
watch for the majority of the WSP.

1231
01:18:57.720 --> 01:19:00.359
You know, Phil Halmath makes the
final table and you want to come on

1232
01:19:00.479 --> 01:19:03.199
down and watch, come on down
and watch. That is certainly possible.

1233
01:19:03.239 --> 01:19:06.800
You know, Just just know that
you need to only go in certain areas

1234
01:19:06.880 --> 01:19:11.720
where you know fans and spectators are
allowed to There are security guards around who

1235
01:19:11.720 --> 01:19:14.560
will sort of usher you in the
right direction. Stay out of the way

1236
01:19:14.560 --> 01:19:16.359
of the cameras of course, don't
bother the players while they're playing all of

1237
01:19:16.439 --> 01:19:20.840
that good stuff. But this does
not involve actually having some sort of ticket

1238
01:19:20.920 --> 01:19:24.119
that you have to pay for it
to come in and watch. You can

1239
01:19:24.159 --> 01:19:27.800
just come on down, um and
walk around the horse you and also Paris

1240
01:19:27.920 --> 01:19:31.479
and uh see the sights as they
say, Jesse Harley, talk to me

1241
01:19:31.960 --> 01:19:34.960
about the dealers. How long are
the shifts? How much are they paid?

1242
01:19:35.439 --> 01:19:39.560
Are they tipped? Are they union? Do they get to party after

1243
01:19:39.680 --> 01:19:44.119
the main events? Uh? Any
answers or insight would be a real treat.

1244
01:19:45.199 --> 01:19:46.840
I don't know. I don't know
how much they get paid. Um,

1245
01:19:48.760 --> 01:19:51.039
well, yeah, I think they
announced it that they announced though the

1246
01:19:51.119 --> 01:19:57.039
rates it's it's it's pretty decent.
I'm just wondering if Jesse's a dealer,

1247
01:19:57.199 --> 01:19:59.399
well trying to be a dealer for
the first time. It just sounds like

1248
01:19:59.439 --> 01:20:01.039
he has some in it, right. Yeah, I don't believe the union.

1249
01:20:01.359 --> 01:20:04.640
Um, you know, some of
them come in from all over the

1250
01:20:04.680 --> 01:20:08.000
world. They come you know,
so like I don't think there's any way

1251
01:20:08.039 --> 01:20:11.039
that you could like organize a union
or it might just be a headache or

1252
01:20:11.079 --> 01:20:13.840
whatever. Yeah, there is.
I think they pulled, there are pooled

1253
01:20:13.880 --> 01:20:16.479
tips. I don't know how much
they get from tips. Is obviously if

1254
01:20:16.479 --> 01:20:19.960
you're doing cash games, you get
to keep all those tips. Um.

1255
01:20:21.079 --> 01:20:25.479
Yeah, I don't really know too
much about it. Party after the main

1256
01:20:25.520 --> 01:20:29.279
event, I don't I don't know
of like any like dealer party that everyone

1257
01:20:29.359 --> 01:20:33.399
goes to. I'm assuming there's probably
something. There's probably something, probably get

1258
01:20:33.439 --> 01:20:35.800
home, yeah exactly. I mean
it's been a long seven weeks all that

1259
01:20:35.840 --> 01:20:41.520
sort of stuff. Um, how
long are the shifts, I'd say they're

1260
01:20:41.520 --> 01:20:44.960
probably right around eight hours. Yeah, you can just sometimes is over time,

1261
01:20:45.039 --> 01:20:47.720
not often. You can obviously do
early outs. Um. So yeah,

1262
01:20:48.680 --> 01:20:51.840
and then they're all like every down
is with thirty minutes. They're in

1263
01:20:51.880 --> 01:20:55.800
the box and then they kind of
get up and move on to the next

1264
01:20:55.840 --> 01:20:58.640
table and go from there. And
then there's some of the bigger break every

1265
01:20:58.920 --> 01:21:01.319
some of the bigger ones you'd kind
of do back to back downs or even

1266
01:21:01.520 --> 01:21:05.119
you know, four consecutive downs.
Yeah, but I mean I think the

1267
01:21:05.199 --> 01:21:09.399
devistity like kind of puts that information
out there so you know, you can

1268
01:21:09.520 --> 01:21:12.399
dig around. At least last year
they talked about how much they would get

1269
01:21:12.399 --> 01:21:15.239
paid per down, all that sort
of stuff. Uh, separate question that

1270
01:21:15.319 --> 01:21:20.039
could get answered together or separate talk
about the most memorable meltdown or tantrums from

1271
01:21:20.119 --> 01:21:24.960
players when they got one outed.
I don't know about one outed exactly,

1272
01:21:26.479 --> 01:21:29.600
but I mean Phil Helmy hasn't meltdown
every year. I mean every year there's

1273
01:21:29.600 --> 01:21:31.239
some sort of tantrum like it is. Yeah, you know, pencil it

1274
01:21:31.359 --> 01:21:34.439
in right, Yeah, yeah it
is. I'm pretty sure we've done a

1275
01:21:34.479 --> 01:21:38.800
compilation. I mean the one last
year was incredible when he was at the

1276
01:21:39.600 --> 01:21:43.159
was it the three KSE six Max
final table with David Jackson, the Chris

1277
01:21:43.319 --> 01:21:46.479
unickon on the rail, that whole
thing he was freaking out. Security wasn't

1278
01:21:46.520 --> 01:21:49.119
it was a whole mess. It
was. It was crazy. I mean

1279
01:21:49.159 --> 01:21:54.680
that was that was wild. Obviously
there's like older stuff that involves Helmeth.

1280
01:21:55.079 --> 01:21:58.560
You don't know how to spell poker, the idiot from Northern Europe. You

1281
01:21:58.640 --> 01:22:02.319
know, he's called people monks on
many occasions. Like there's at least one,

1282
01:22:02.520 --> 01:22:06.119
if not multiple from phil Helmides every
single year. Also last year one

1283
01:22:06.119 --> 01:22:10.159
of the ones that kind of really
sticks out. Remember when the granny through

1284
01:22:10.159 --> 01:22:14.600
the selfie stick he slammed the selfie
I don't know if that was a one

1285
01:22:14.640 --> 01:22:15.600
hour, but it might have been
pretty close. It was like a two

1286
01:22:15.640 --> 01:22:19.760
hour. Yeah, but yeah,
slam the selfie stick that was a whole

1287
01:22:19.840 --> 01:22:26.199
thing. Was that that caused the
whole stir so? So yeah, there's

1288
01:22:26.239 --> 01:22:31.199
been some there's been some fun and
some crazy uh tantrums or meltdowns. I

1289
01:22:31.279 --> 01:22:36.600
don't think anything is like gone too
far. I mean, obviously people argued

1290
01:22:36.640 --> 01:22:42.239
that what Daniel did went too far. I disagree, Um, but I

1291
01:22:42.479 --> 01:22:46.119
you know, I don't think anyone's
gone I don't think it was thrown chair

1292
01:22:46.600 --> 01:22:51.000
like you know, done that like
well actually ground throw a chair, Oh,

1293
01:22:51.119 --> 01:22:55.159
kicked the chair, Oh knocked over
a chair? Remember three handed with

1294
01:22:55.279 --> 01:22:59.399
ozmas Helmouth at the fifty K payload? Yeah yeah, he like kind of

1295
01:22:59.399 --> 01:23:02.239
pushed kicked trip back. Yeah,
but it wasn't like I'm talking about like

1296
01:23:02.359 --> 01:23:06.520
picking it up and like chucking it
like you know, like borderline, you

1297
01:23:06.640 --> 01:23:10.399
know, getting into the assault territory
is what I'm doing. No, like,

1298
01:23:10.560 --> 01:23:14.039
none of that sort of sort of
stuff happens. Um Our guy Mickey

1299
01:23:14.119 --> 01:23:16.680
Daft writes in what's the one event
not on the schedule that you would want

1300
01:23:16.720 --> 01:23:21.199
to see on it? I'm sure
you have one. I mean, yeah,

1301
01:23:21.279 --> 01:23:26.439
you have to have one because you
installed it during the PGTS games.

1302
01:23:26.520 --> 01:23:29.079
That's the one I'm thinking about.
I'm just trying to think if there's anything

1303
01:23:29.119 --> 01:23:32.520
else I've always wanted, like a
triple Stud championship. Yeah, maybe it's

1304
01:23:32.520 --> 01:23:36.960
something we did. I'm the best. Um, maybe it's just a five

1305
01:23:38.039 --> 01:23:41.640
K five K Triple Stud Championship.
That could be I think a popular event.

1306
01:23:43.159 --> 01:23:46.039
So I love that event, but
you can have that one. What

1307
01:23:46.319 --> 01:23:50.840
I want I want like a five
K rebuy, not re entry. I

1308
01:23:50.920 --> 01:23:55.039
want the rebuy back. I want
him to figure it out how to do

1309
01:23:55.079 --> 01:23:58.039
it. Remember when they had like
the was the one that Phil gelf On

1310
01:23:58.119 --> 01:24:01.239
one five K PLO rebuy, Yeah
when like you know, it had like

1311
01:24:01.359 --> 01:24:04.439
one hundred entries, but he won
like eight hundred k or something insane because

1312
01:24:04.479 --> 01:24:09.199
it was a bazillion repeople were blasting
Like remember the time when Negron you had

1313
01:24:09.239 --> 01:24:12.239
to like come in sixth place because
in that one K rebuy or whatever it

1314
01:24:12.399 --> 01:24:15.159
was, he had to break even. Like that was his break even for

1315
01:24:15.319 --> 01:24:17.279
Like, I want to rebuy,
like figure it out somehow, Like I

1316
01:24:17.359 --> 01:24:21.199
feel like we've I understand why they
went away. I get it and and

1317
01:24:21.319 --> 01:24:26.159
everything transitioned to the re entry stuff. I feel like there's now a place

1318
01:24:26.279 --> 01:24:29.640
where, you know, we have
enough technology these days. I think everyone

1319
01:24:29.760 --> 01:24:34.520
is as experienced that we could bring
back a rebuy at some point rebuy plus

1320
01:24:34.560 --> 01:24:39.279
add on, let's go make it
happen like an online of it. Yeah,

1321
01:24:40.840 --> 01:24:44.159
come on, man, like people
just a five K people blasting off

1322
01:24:44.239 --> 01:24:45.680
thirty five K, forty K in
the tournament, like, you know,

1323
01:24:45.720 --> 01:24:48.720
without having to go back to the
registration line like all this sort of stuff.

1324
01:24:48.800 --> 01:24:50.800
Like, Yeah, I agree,
I think it'd be great, Like

1325
01:24:50.840 --> 01:24:54.239
you figure I mean, I think
we could figure it out somehow, right,

1326
01:24:54.399 --> 01:24:57.960
Yeah, we'll figure it out.
Um. Andrew Moreno writes in can

the pizza near the Horseshoe? Uh?

1328
01:25:03.199 --> 01:25:06.880
Yeah, I got a few spots. I think there's a Sabaro downstairs.

1329
01:25:09.159 --> 01:25:13.399
Avoid that unless you're Allen Kessler,
I would avoid. That's not that horrible.

1330
01:25:14.680 --> 01:25:16.840
Better. Look it's better than Little
Caesars. I mean whatever, they

1331
01:25:16.920 --> 01:25:23.600
both they're both horrible. Um.
So my favorite one would be Naked City

1332
01:25:23.680 --> 01:25:27.680
Pizza over on Paradise. So I
don't think you could walk there, but

1333
01:25:28.199 --> 01:25:31.960
probably a five minute drive. Um. It was started from two guys from

1334
01:25:32.000 --> 01:25:35.960
Buffalo, New York. It is
serving Buffalo New York style pizza. So

1335
01:25:36.359 --> 01:25:41.800
it's not like, first of all, it's cutting like a square or a

1336
01:25:41.880 --> 01:25:45.239
rectangle. You can look it up
online. It's been on Guy Fieri Show,

1337
01:25:45.279 --> 01:25:48.359
Diners, Drive Ins, and Dives
twice. I believe. Um.

1338
01:25:49.399 --> 01:25:54.079
It is not like you might look
at it and be like, oh,

1339
01:25:54.159 --> 01:25:57.199
that's Sicilian or whatever, because it's
it looks a little bit thicker and it's

1340
01:25:57.239 --> 01:25:59.800
square, but it's not. It's
it's a little bit thinner. It's more

1341
01:25:59.840 --> 01:26:05.479
like I guess, more Greek slash
Roman than it would be Sicilian. Um,

1342
01:26:05.520 --> 01:26:10.399
but also like thicker than a New
York slice. But it's Buffalo style

1343
01:26:10.439 --> 01:26:13.439
pizza. UM, cup and char
pepperoni. If you get the pepperoni.

1344
01:26:13.600 --> 01:26:15.960
That's that's my spot. I like
it. I'm a bit partial because I

1345
01:26:15.960 --> 01:26:19.079
grew up in Buffalo, New York
till I was fifteen. UM. Shout

1346
01:26:19.119 --> 01:26:23.479
out Buffalo Hanks, Sprent Hanks as
well, UM, my Buffalo guy.

1347
01:26:23.600 --> 01:26:27.560
So UM, that's one spot that's
pretty close. Um. Where it is

1348
01:26:27.640 --> 01:26:32.880
on Paradise is really close to the
horseshoe. Um, there's Metro Pizza on

1349
01:26:33.119 --> 01:26:38.960
Covell inside Ellis Island. Metro Pizza
has a couple of spots around Las Vegas.

1350
01:26:39.199 --> 01:26:42.439
Naked City I think has two spots
at least around Las Vegas. Um,

1351
01:26:42.560 --> 01:26:45.640
but Metro Pizza serves up a lot
of different style pizzas. Um and

1352
01:26:45.760 --> 01:26:49.039
it's it's all pretty good. Um. They got a Sicilian on there that

1353
01:26:49.279 --> 01:26:54.760
is thick. And if you're looking
to like, if you're looking for posts,

1354
01:26:54.960 --> 01:26:59.119
bust out, get into a food
coma type of meal, get the

1355
01:26:59.239 --> 01:27:03.399
Sicilian from the Metro Pizza. You'll
have two pieces and you'll not want to

1356
01:27:03.399 --> 01:27:08.079
get out of bed for forty eight
hours. And then if you can,

1357
01:27:08.439 --> 01:27:13.079
if you can make it good,
pie is my go to pizza in Las

1358
01:27:13.199 --> 01:27:16.159
Vegas. The only issue is that
as it pertains to the Horse Shoe,

1359
01:27:16.199 --> 01:27:19.920
it's about a fifteen minute drive,
twelve to fifteen minutes. It's on main

1360
01:27:20.000 --> 01:27:24.720
Street, it's downtown. So but
you can get there pretty quickly. Um,

1361
01:27:24.840 --> 01:27:28.479
just either just hop on the highway
or you could even probably just drive

1362
01:27:28.520 --> 01:27:31.279
down Las Vegas Boulevard. But ten
to fifteen minutes or so you can be

1363
01:27:31.359 --> 01:27:33.800
down there and back. You can, I mean, you can probably get

1364
01:27:33.840 --> 01:27:36.000
there and back in a dinner break
for sure. Like if you have a

1365
01:27:36.079 --> 01:27:39.600
car, you can go and it's
it's not like a high traffic day like

1366
01:27:39.640 --> 01:27:43.000
a Friday or Saturday evening on the
strip. You can head on down.

1367
01:27:43.079 --> 01:27:46.279
But those would be my spots.
We should also probably mention Giodanos whether you

1368
01:27:46.600 --> 01:27:49.039
love it or hate it, No, I mean I don't. I don't

1369
01:27:49.079 --> 01:27:51.079
like it. I don't think it's
good. Well I want to mention that.

1370
01:27:51.520 --> 01:27:55.800
But if you want Chicago deep dish
pizza, sure, yes, when

1371
01:27:55.840 --> 01:27:59.600
you go to Giodanno's, it's it's
the first shop in the Grand Bazaar shops.

1372
01:28:00.079 --> 01:28:01.279
Two spout says, one at the
top where you go in and sit

1373
01:28:01.359 --> 01:28:05.399
down. If you go down the
escalators, they have pre like what is

1374
01:28:05.399 --> 01:28:10.199
a personal ones ready to go like
only like cheese and pepperoni. But if

1375
01:28:10.239 --> 01:28:13.479
you want to go get a little
personal and head off, that's the quickest

1376
01:28:13.520 --> 01:28:18.760
way outside of Sabaro to get and
okay or decent pizza depending who you are.

1377
01:28:19.600 --> 01:28:23.800
But if you want them, if
you want good pizza, Naked City

1378
01:28:24.560 --> 01:28:29.319
metro pizza or good pie, if
you can make it down there, about

1379
01:28:29.359 --> 01:28:33.119
fifteen minute drive to main Street downtown. Um No, Robert Goldstein, sobar

1380
01:28:33.359 --> 01:28:38.680
is never going to be sponsoring this
podcast after that, Robert Goldstein writes,

1381
01:28:38.720 --> 01:28:42.319
will there be shuttles from the Rio
or other Caesar's properties to the Horseshoe?

1382
01:28:42.319 --> 01:28:45.000
If not, where is the nearest
free parking rio? No, it's not

1383
01:28:45.079 --> 01:28:49.520
a Seson property anymore. Um So
no, I don't think there are shuttles

1384
01:28:49.600 --> 01:28:57.119
anymore. So you can walk from
Caesar's. You can walk from well,

1385
01:28:57.479 --> 01:29:02.760
what was it like, Flamingo yep, Cromwell, Um, his planet,

1386
01:29:02.800 --> 01:29:09.760
Hollywood's Caesar's anyway, Yes, okay, yeah, yeah, obviously you know,

1387
01:29:09.800 --> 01:29:12.119
if you're at Paris, you can
obviously walk to Horseshoe. If you're

1388
01:29:12.119 --> 01:29:15.239
hor at Horseshoe, you can walk
to Paris, etc. Um. I

1389
01:29:15.359 --> 01:29:18.920
think everything is pretty walkable, like
the link walkable, Like everything's like walkable

1390
01:29:19.000 --> 01:29:21.960
within like ten minutes around here,
which is that's like one of the big

1391
01:29:23.000 --> 01:29:26.399
benefits of moving from from the Rio
down to the Strip is that there's so

1392
01:29:26.560 --> 01:29:30.760
much stuff within walking distance. Before
a lot of people out of towners would

1393
01:29:30.800 --> 01:29:33.920
think I'm going to walk to the
Rio and then you're walking three miles across

1394
01:29:34.000 --> 01:29:39.079
a highway over and overpass in you
know, one hundred and seventy degree weather

1395
01:29:39.119 --> 01:29:42.279
and you're ready to kill yourself,
you know so. But down here,

1396
01:29:42.760 --> 01:29:46.520
yes, I don't think there's um
shuttles, but you know, everything is

1397
01:29:46.560 --> 01:29:51.920
pretty walkable. In terms of free
parking, I don't know. I'm trying

1398
01:29:51.920 --> 01:29:54.880
to look at me. I'm trying
to look at up right now. But

1399
01:29:55.239 --> 01:30:00.319
I swove that planet Hollywood was free, but I don't that might not be

1400
01:30:00.439 --> 01:30:04.079
the case anymore. I mean,
the only free place I know that's at

1401
01:30:04.119 --> 01:30:10.600
all close is the Win and that
is not close. Yeah, Venetians probably

1402
01:30:10.640 --> 01:30:12.600
the closest. I mean, can't
you do the trick? You get a

1403
01:30:12.720 --> 01:30:15.960
Caesar's Reward credit card? Like,
isn't that the trick? And you're messing

1404
01:30:15.039 --> 01:30:18.760
with your credit card and stuff?
I mean, okay, but are you

1405
01:30:18.880 --> 01:30:25.880
really Maybe you're building credit technically,
yes, you will abuilding if you don't

1406
01:30:25.920 --> 01:30:30.279
have bad credit. How horrible can
it be to open another credit card with

1407
01:30:30.680 --> 01:30:32.760
finances? Well? Yeah, if
you're fine, then Venetian is I would

1408
01:30:32.880 --> 01:30:36.039
give. If you parked a Venetian, which is free, has like twelve

1409
01:30:36.119 --> 01:30:42.039
levels of parking, I would say
fifteen minutes you could walk to the horseshoe.

1410
01:30:44.000 --> 01:30:46.199
Yeah, you agree, It seems
like a trick. It is,

1411
01:30:46.319 --> 01:30:49.039
but if you really care about the
free parking, then yeah, yeah,

1412
01:30:49.119 --> 01:30:53.359
I mean, yeah, I get
it. Um. Eric Emerson, Hey,

1413
01:30:53.439 --> 01:30:55.720
guys, First of all, love
the show. Thank you Eric.

1414
01:30:56.119 --> 01:30:58.960
My question is I've played poker is
a hobby for on twenty years. I

1415
01:30:59.039 --> 01:31:01.880
study frequently, but my bank roll
has only allowed me to play four hundred

1416
01:31:01.920 --> 01:31:06.760
to fifteen hundred dollars buyings. I've
been relatively successful at those levels. This

1417
01:31:06.960 --> 01:31:11.920
year I sold enough action to play
the event. Well that's pretty sweet.

1418
01:31:12.680 --> 01:31:15.079
What advice would you give someone how
to best take it all in and get

1419
01:31:15.119 --> 01:31:23.720
the full experience the world's shoos a
poker main event can offer you got feste,

1420
01:31:24.359 --> 01:31:30.079
I mean, just enjoy it.
Yeah, but don't like I think,

1421
01:31:30.119 --> 01:31:35.000
if you want to experience the main
event to the fullest, or you

1422
01:31:35.039 --> 01:31:38.079
know, even if you're out there
and you're taking a shot in your first

1423
01:31:38.119 --> 01:31:42.920
ever WSP event and it's not the
main event, don't get lost in the

1424
01:31:43.000 --> 01:31:45.039
fact that like, oh my god, I'm playing the event or oh my

1425
01:31:45.119 --> 01:31:49.359
god, I'm playing at WSP event, because then it can seem too big

1426
01:31:49.479 --> 01:31:53.439
than it actually is. Not that
THESP is not big, and not that

1427
01:31:53.560 --> 01:31:57.520
it's not special and prestigious and all
of that sort of stuff. But what

1428
01:31:57.640 --> 01:32:01.600
I'm saying is that you don't want
to let yourself get overly anxious, stressed

1429
01:32:01.640 --> 01:32:04.960
out, emotional, feel like there's
too much pressure on you all that sort

1430
01:32:05.000 --> 01:32:10.319
of stuff. End of the day, you're still playing poker in a poker

1431
01:32:10.399 --> 01:32:13.760
tournament. Okay, yes, it's
obviously a bit more important. I totally

1432
01:32:13.840 --> 01:32:17.079
get it, But don't let all
that sort of stuff crowd your mind and

1433
01:32:17.199 --> 01:32:21.319
your judgment. So if you really
want to do experience it and have fun

1434
01:32:21.399 --> 01:32:26.600
with it, you know, try
and not get overwhelmed, is what I'm

1435
01:32:26.640 --> 01:32:28.960
saying. So you know, go
into it with the fact that you know,

1436
01:32:29.119 --> 01:32:31.520
yes, obviously super important, ten
thousand dollars buying us to form an

1437
01:32:31.520 --> 01:32:34.840
event, the absolute pinnacle of poker, the most important vent and poker.

1438
01:32:35.159 --> 01:32:40.880
I get it. That said,
don't freak out, you know, don't

1439
01:32:40.920 --> 01:32:44.199
have a panic attack at the table, like come to the terms heading into

1440
01:32:44.239 --> 01:32:47.640
it that this is great. I'm
fortunate enough to have this opportunity. I've

1441
01:32:47.680 --> 01:32:51.479
had some success in poker, so
I feel confident in myself. Overall,

1442
01:32:51.800 --> 01:32:55.479
there's gonna be a lot of people, you know, that are playing this

1443
01:32:55.560 --> 01:32:59.000
event for the first time that do
get overwhelmed. They do get overcome by

1444
01:32:59.039 --> 01:33:00.720
it, and ultimately that does them
in in the end. You know,

1445
01:33:00.920 --> 01:33:03.359
you make you make a deep run, you might get to day four,

1446
01:33:03.479 --> 01:33:06.800
Day five, and then you freak
out because you're like, oh my god,

1447
01:33:06.840 --> 01:33:10.399
I let it get to me and
this is the main event. So

1448
01:33:11.359 --> 01:33:14.840
don't be like that, you know, so just remember in the back of

1449
01:33:14.960 --> 01:33:17.359
your mind that you're a good poker
player. It sounds like you've obviously had

1450
01:33:17.399 --> 01:33:23.920
a lot of experience playing for twenty
years. That's it's it's it's not that

1451
01:33:24.199 --> 01:33:28.239
far detached when you just kind of
break it down. Okay, So so

1452
01:33:28.359 --> 01:33:31.239
don't let it overwhelm you. What
do you got? I got nothing to

1453
01:33:31.239 --> 01:33:33.439
that. Actually, I think you
nay out everything there, so you go,

1454
01:33:33.840 --> 01:33:38.520
okay. Marcus Bell, can you
talk about the role of sponsorship and

1455
01:33:38.640 --> 01:33:42.520
brandy in the WSP summer tournaments.
How do sponsorship contribute to the overall experience?

1456
01:33:42.520 --> 01:33:45.399
If I run deep in the main
event, might a sponsor ask me

1457
01:33:45.520 --> 01:33:47.720
to wear a patch? I think
the patch stuff is kind of done.

1458
01:33:48.079 --> 01:33:51.279
It might happen, but it's not
as much as it once was. It

1459
01:33:51.359 --> 01:33:55.399
once was, like you made like
you made like day five of the main

1460
01:33:55.439 --> 01:33:58.439
event, you'd have like six people
trying to patch you up. I had

1461
01:33:58.600 --> 01:34:02.680
a friend when we were on day
three of the main event in seven be

1462
01:34:02.880 --> 01:34:08.760
Off at five k by red Bull
Red Bull on day three of the WSP

1463
01:34:08.920 --> 01:34:12.119
main event, where patch he said, no, I was, what are

1464
01:34:12.119 --> 01:34:14.960
you doing? But yeah, that
kind of thing is kind of phase out

1465
01:34:15.000 --> 01:34:18.600
on two you get to the final
table. Um, yeah, it's I

1466
01:34:18.680 --> 01:34:21.600
mean there's obviously sponsors in, there's
brain and it's all over. You'll see

1467
01:34:21.600 --> 01:34:25.520
it everywhere. Um, you'll see
it on the on the table felt,

1468
01:34:25.560 --> 01:34:29.520
you'll see it on signage around,
You'll see it on the TV screens around

1469
01:34:29.560 --> 01:34:33.479
the main feature table set, all
that sort of stuff. Some of the

1470
01:34:33.560 --> 01:34:40.960
sponsors also go as as far as
to have booths which are mostly over at

1471
01:34:41.079 --> 01:34:44.399
Paris and in the big hallway there. Um, you can go over there

1472
01:34:44.439 --> 01:34:46.439
and get a little bit more of
the experience, engage with them, see

1473
01:34:46.479 --> 01:34:49.319
what they might have to offer from
a product standpoint, all that sort of

1474
01:34:49.359 --> 01:34:53.319
stuff. So some of the people
do that. Other people are just there

1475
01:34:53.399 --> 01:34:56.279
to kind of get like that TV
sponsorship or that sort of stuff. So

1476
01:34:57.560 --> 01:35:00.800
it is it is an element of
course as big a as big of an

1477
01:35:00.840 --> 01:35:03.560
event as the WSP is. You
know, it's natural that it has big

1478
01:35:03.640 --> 01:35:08.560
sponsors like it does every single year. Um, there's a lot of sponsors

1479
01:35:08.600 --> 01:35:11.640
that are kind of the same from
year to year. Recent years, gig

1480
01:35:11.760 --> 01:35:15.520
Poker's you know, been top of
mind as a sponsor, but then you

1481
01:35:15.560 --> 01:35:17.119
also get some new ones that come
in here and there. So we'll see.

1482
01:35:17.399 --> 01:35:20.920
We'll see this year. I guess
what sort of sponsors are around.

1483
01:35:21.000 --> 01:35:26.000
But I wouldn't expect, you know, the whole patch thing to happen unless

1484
01:35:26.000 --> 01:35:29.279
you're making a super super deep run
on the main event. That's really you

1485
01:35:29.359 --> 01:35:31.319
know, Other than that, it's
really not a thing anymore. UM would

1486
01:35:31.359 --> 01:35:34.119
love to obviously change that and to
become a thing again, because then that

1487
01:35:34.239 --> 01:35:39.640
means more sponsors are interested in in
having more exposure and branding and spending more

1488
01:35:39.680 --> 01:35:41.680
money at the World Series Bok,
I get it, But that's just not

1489
01:35:41.800 --> 01:35:45.920
the landscape these days, Russell Huff. How can I find a satellite to

1490
01:35:46.039 --> 01:35:53.159
the main events while I am in
Vegas, UM, go to Paris and

1491
01:35:53.239 --> 01:35:56.079
check out the schedule. Yeah,
that see what's being offered. Yeah,

1492
01:35:56.119 --> 01:35:58.039
closer to the main event, they
are going to be doing a lot.

1493
01:35:58.079 --> 01:36:00.960
I would say, before you come, check out dubas dot com to just

1494
01:36:00.079 --> 01:36:03.760
see like what could possibly available,
what's running or on the timeframe that you're

1495
01:36:03.760 --> 01:36:06.600
going to be there, all that
sort of stuff. Yeah, that's pretty

1496
01:36:06.680 --> 01:36:10.159
much it. There's gonna be some
online there's gonna be the twenty five seat

1497
01:36:10.159 --> 01:36:15.079
scrambles, there's gonna be Mega satellites
on you know, the weeks leading up

1498
01:36:15.119 --> 01:36:18.439
to the main event. If we're
talking June third, IM not sure what

1499
01:36:18.600 --> 01:36:24.720
kind of main event satellites they would
have live, so I mean they usually

1500
01:36:24.760 --> 01:36:27.880
have at some point a five hundred
Mega, a one kme Mega, and

1501
01:36:27.920 --> 01:36:30.239
then a two k Mega, so
be on the lookout for those. So

1502
01:36:30.399 --> 01:36:35.359
yeah, and obviously when you if
you're looking for a live satellite, live

1503
01:36:35.479 --> 01:36:39.760
tournament satellite, the best time is
in the days leading up to the those

1504
01:36:39.960 --> 01:36:43.079
main events. You know, if
you come June first, you might not

1505
01:36:43.199 --> 01:36:45.800
find anything. But if you come, you know, July second, yeah,

1506
01:36:45.840 --> 01:36:50.560
you're probably gonna find something. Alex
Heinie, right, this will be

1507
01:36:50.680 --> 01:36:56.239
my first planning, planning, planning
on firing three bolts in the Gladiator if

1508
01:36:56.359 --> 01:36:59.920
necessary? Can I register the day
before the day one flight? I'm going

1509
01:37:00.119 --> 01:37:02.039
to play and walk right into a
fresh stack, even if I'm a few

1510
01:37:02.079 --> 01:37:06.359
minutes late. So we touched on
this earlier. Yes, you can register

1511
01:37:06.439 --> 01:37:10.279
the day before or the night before, you could register a week before,

1512
01:37:10.399 --> 01:37:14.039
you know, all that sort of
stuff. But it also sounds like stacks

1513
01:37:14.079 --> 01:37:17.159
are going to be in play from
the start, So if you show up

1514
01:37:17.159 --> 01:37:20.680
a few minutes late, you might
miss a couple of blinds or aunties.

1515
01:37:20.920 --> 01:37:24.720
Right, it's not going to crush
you if you're like showing up. If

1516
01:37:24.760 --> 01:37:27.199
the tournament starts at I don't know, eleven o'clock and you show up at

1517
01:37:27.199 --> 01:37:30.359
eleven o eight, you're not gonna
have half your stack go okay, Like

1518
01:37:30.520 --> 01:37:32.039
you know, you might miss one
rotation, so it's not going to be

1519
01:37:32.079 --> 01:37:35.319
the end of the world. Also, have either of you played the eight

1520
01:37:35.479 --> 01:37:40.399
sixteen mixed game at Resorts World.
I'm big into non hold the games.

1521
01:37:40.439 --> 01:37:45.479
I've read things get even deeper than
normal Horse Slash eight game mix types.

1522
01:37:45.600 --> 01:37:46.600
There, what do you got if
you played? I haven't played it.

1523
01:37:46.640 --> 01:37:49.119
Yeah, I played it lots.
Yeah, Well there you go. How

1524
01:37:49.239 --> 01:37:54.680
is it is a good game?
Yes, I don't wanna. I would

1525
01:37:54.680 --> 01:37:58.439
say it's a tough fish game.
It's not easy. It's not You're not

1526
01:37:58.479 --> 01:38:01.239
gonna be printing money. If you
would you say, somebody who likes mixed

1527
01:38:01.279 --> 01:38:04.479
games, so they're not like a
brand new player, they have a mixed

1528
01:38:04.520 --> 01:38:08.039
game experience. Would you say,
yeah, that's the good play, You'll

1529
01:38:08.079 --> 01:38:11.359
be fine early, you're fine or
whatever. Um No, I would actually

1530
01:38:11.359 --> 01:38:15.039
suggest playing the four eight mixed game
at Resorts World. They have they normally

1531
01:38:15.199 --> 01:38:17.800
kind of running tandem. It's a
little bit of a different player when thirty

1532
01:38:17.840 --> 01:38:24.039
big bets and move up. No, not at all. So yeah,

1533
01:38:24.079 --> 01:38:28.039
I would suggest playing the four eight. I will also a little a little

1534
01:38:28.039 --> 01:38:31.399
shout out to our fellow media member
Robbie Schozinski. He's doing actually a mixed

1535
01:38:31.399 --> 01:38:36.479
game festival at Resorts World July second
to six. There'll be all kinds of

1536
01:38:36.960 --> 01:38:43.199
four eight games running. Details still
coming, but save those days July second

1537
01:38:43.199 --> 01:38:45.359
to six, Resourts World. So
yeah, don't jump in the A sixteen.

1538
01:38:45.359 --> 01:38:49.640
There's some very good players they're suggest
playing the four eight and you will

1539
01:38:49.680 --> 01:38:51.920
have a lot of fun. I
think. He also writes what the f

1540
01:38:53.199 --> 01:38:57.640
is drama haa zero, All right
here we are education time mixed game people

1541
01:38:57.680 --> 01:39:00.159
out there. Dramaha. It's it's
the newest game on the streets. It's

1542
01:39:00.159 --> 01:39:05.680
a split part game. Half the
part is draw part and the other half

1543
01:39:05.720 --> 01:39:09.720
the part is Omaha high. So
you're gonna have five cards. You're gonna

1544
01:39:09.760 --> 01:39:15.000
use two for the Omaha and then
the Dramaha part is all different variations.

1545
01:39:15.079 --> 01:39:19.479
They have Dramaha forty nine, Dramaha
Doogie, just Dramaha Hi. In his

1546
01:39:19.680 --> 01:39:26.359
question here Alex, Dramaha zero.
You're counting the pips in your five cards.

1547
01:39:26.560 --> 01:39:29.840
When I say pips, you actually
don't want any. So a perfect

1548
01:39:29.920 --> 01:39:33.439
Dramaha zero hand is all paint cards
because paints are worth zero in this A

1549
01:39:33.600 --> 01:39:39.119
ten is you know, ten and
ace is one. The other wrinkle with

1550
01:39:39.239 --> 01:39:42.319
Dramaha, everyone's gonna be dealt five
cards. You're gonna do your betting raising

1551
01:39:42.399 --> 01:39:44.840
in a deal flop, you're gonna
do your betting and raising, and then

1552
01:39:44.880 --> 01:39:48.000
you're gonna discard up to three cards
and then you're gonna continue to turn river.

1553
01:39:48.119 --> 01:39:51.399
So half the part Omaha Hi,
half the part pips in your hand.

1554
01:39:51.479 --> 01:39:55.960
You want lots of paint cards.
Jesus, Okay, I'm glad you

1555
01:39:56.079 --> 01:40:01.880
tackled that. Mika Sitko World in
Will Norman Chad be joining Lawn and Jamie

1556
01:40:02.199 --> 01:40:06.439
Law McCarron, Jamie Cursor this year. UM, I haven't heard different.

1557
01:40:06.479 --> 01:40:09.479
I'm I don't know. I mean
who knows. Yeah, we like we

1558
01:40:09.600 --> 01:40:13.760
touched on before. We unsure of
the talent except for what Donnie himself is

1559
01:40:13.800 --> 01:40:16.840
doing us something we don't really get
involved in. We just turn up,

1560
01:40:16.920 --> 01:40:19.840
we see who's commentary, or we
tune in like you guys at home.

1561
01:40:19.920 --> 01:40:25.239
And a lot of times, you
know, because we just have so much

1562
01:40:25.319 --> 01:40:29.800
going on. Our team is so
big, the production team is so big

1563
01:40:29.880 --> 01:40:30.880
in its own right, and they're
doing their own thing. A lot of

1564
01:40:30.920 --> 01:40:33.079
times Tim and I will tune in
and be like, oh, so and

1565
01:40:33.159 --> 01:40:35.319
so's on the call today, you
know, like that sort of stuff,

1566
01:40:35.319 --> 01:40:39.039
you know, because um, if
there's a lot of moving parts, there's

1567
01:40:39.039 --> 01:40:43.720
a lot of commentators. So so
yeah, UM, last question, we

1568
01:40:43.880 --> 01:40:46.279
made it. This is what question
eight. We've been going. We have

1569
01:40:46.359 --> 01:40:48.640
been going for way too long.
And if you made it to this part

1570
01:40:48.680 --> 01:40:54.840
of the podcast, thank you,
Thank you. M Valentine Vornaku rode in.

1571
01:40:54.960 --> 01:40:58.479
When will Boxes at the Cage for
Rent be available? I know they

1572
01:40:58.600 --> 01:41:00.920
usually sell out quick. At the
beginning of the series, UM, checking

1573
01:41:01.000 --> 01:41:05.760
with some sources. I was told
they'll be available May thirtieth at nine am.

1574
01:41:05.880 --> 01:41:10.159
So that's five days from now.
It's Thursday. Here, it's a

1575
01:41:10.359 --> 01:41:14.640
Friday. Um can't can't figure things
out. Um, so yeah, told

1576
01:41:14.720 --> 01:41:19.800
they'll be available May thirtieth, nine
am. UM suggested that you pay attention

1577
01:41:20.279 --> 01:41:25.760
to dbspi's Twitter account and also keV
math. I feel like keV math is

1578
01:41:25.760 --> 01:41:29.520
always on top of this specific,
this specific thing every single year, always

1579
01:41:29.520 --> 01:41:31.600
talking about the boxes because a lot
of people have questions. UM, I

1580
01:41:31.600 --> 01:41:35.359
would I would pay attention to the
Twitter account, which Kevin math is going

1581
01:41:35.399 --> 01:41:40.119
to be manning again this year,
and then also keV mas twitter acount at

1582
01:41:40.239 --> 01:41:44.119
keV math um for the most up
to date information on this. But sounds

1583
01:41:44.159 --> 01:41:47.560
like May thirtieth, nine am is
when those will be available. And then

1584
01:41:47.600 --> 01:41:53.880
if that's something that you're interested in, UM, the sooner the better because

1585
01:41:54.000 --> 01:41:57.399
you know, as Valentine points out, UM, they usually sell out pretty

1586
01:41:57.600 --> 01:42:01.800
quickly early on. UM. All
right, that's it. I don't know

1587
01:42:01.880 --> 01:42:04.600
how many questions we did total.
I'm pretty sure it was more than fifty.

1588
01:42:05.840 --> 01:42:10.359
But yeah, that was fun.
It was a lot of talking.

1589
01:42:11.000 --> 01:42:15.239
My mouth is very dry. I
need at I do not want a soda,

1590
01:42:15.439 --> 01:42:18.239
but I'll have some water. I

01:44:10.199 --> 01:44:15.600
like it's I'm already like it's already. Yeah. This is I'm picking up

1617
01:44:15.640 --> 01:44:18.880
the kid from school today. Normally
I'm the drop off in the morning,

1618
01:44:18.960 --> 01:44:23.000
wife is the pickup at night.
Um, she asked if I could pick

1619
01:44:23.079 --> 01:44:26.840
up today. I said yes,
And that's it. See, in seven

1620
01:44:26.880 --> 01:44:29.439
and a half weeks, or eight
weeks or whatever it is. Um,

1621
01:44:29.960 --> 01:44:32.760
yep, see you later. My
son is But but listen to be honest.

1622
01:44:32.840 --> 01:44:39.039
And this like might sound insensitive to
like my family and whatever, but

1623
01:44:39.319 --> 01:44:43.760
I don't care. Um nothing if
I'm not honest. For me, this

1624
01:44:43.920 --> 01:44:45.840
is the best time of the year. And I don't care. I don't

1625
01:44:45.880 --> 01:44:48.119
care that I have to work fifteen
hours a day. Sometimes it's also the

1626
01:44:48.199 --> 01:44:50.960
most important time. I don't Yeah, I don't care that. I don't

1627
01:44:50.960 --> 01:44:54.680
care that I don't get that much
sleep after work every single day. I'll

1628
01:44:54.680 --> 01:44:57.720
be there Saturdays and Sundays, you
know, July fourth, whatever it is,

1629
01:44:57.800 --> 01:45:00.239
Like, I love it. I
think it. It's amazing. It's

1630
01:45:00.279 --> 01:45:04.279
so great. I know you feel
very much the same way. So happy

1631
01:45:04.319 --> 01:45:08.039
to be along for the ride once
again. Happy to have all the audience

1632
01:45:08.119 --> 01:45:11.960
members out there tuning in. Tim
and I are gonna aim to do podcasts

1633
01:45:12.199 --> 01:45:15.399
six days a week. Damn it's
a lot. It is a lot.

1634
01:45:15.560 --> 01:45:17.039
We'll be flexible on that, but
we're gonna aim for six days a week

1635
01:45:17.079 --> 01:45:19.720
doing a lot of the same stuff
we've done in the past, where we'll

1636
01:45:19.800 --> 01:45:23.079
try and grab some winners for any
of you. So we'll try and grab

1637
01:45:23.199 --> 01:45:26.279
some random people we see throughout that
might have some interesting stories where we want

1638
01:45:26.279 --> 01:45:29.600
to talk about some stuff. You
know, we'll try and check in with

1639
01:45:29.680 --> 01:45:32.279
Daniel la Grand New Shawn Deep brought
his weight loss bets. We got Ben

1640
01:45:32.399 --> 01:45:35.640
Mints this year on the team,
as I mentioned earlier, so you know

1641
01:45:35.680 --> 01:45:40.079
we'll be doing some check ins with
him. I'm assuming we can wrangle up

1642
01:45:40.119 --> 01:45:44.319
Jeff Platt and Brent Hanks at times, like it's gonna be amazing. I

1643
01:45:44.560 --> 01:45:47.000
can't wait. So I'm looking forward
to it. I know Tims as well

1644
01:45:47.079 --> 01:45:50.640
as I said. And I'm gonna
shut up now because we've been going for

1645
01:45:50.680 --> 01:46:01.119
way too long and we'll talk to
you guys next week. Lee Chain Express
