bulk of the episode today. I'm not ready unless you have any lingering thoughts.
Do you have anything on predictions or just in general, just in lost
in general, you know, excited, I'm ready. I'm ready for these
predictions. I have not prepped to any of your questions, so it's going
to be fantasy. You could look you gotta come in fresh mind. I
don't want to overthink it too much. I'm gonna get the truth right here
to listen. Okay. The I'm in no way, shape or form like
a good commentator, broadcast or podcast host, whatever, but I have been
doing it for a little while, and what I will say to you is
that preparation is key. Okay, you have to prepare. I spend way
too much time preparing when I'm going on a live stream commentary, when I'm
doing podcasts, any of this sort of stuff, you have to prepare.
I look, I'll be honest, I'm pretty organized most of the time.
Would you agree? My spreadsheets sometimes so then you just fly into the podcast.
Sometimes you're gonna mix it up. Okay, this is me coming in
fresh. Here we go. I'm throwing an audible to my mind and we're
gonna have some fun with it. Maybe we get some hot takes. You
love my hot takes? Oh my god, yeah, the hot takes are
the absolute worst. Should I should have had you prepare hair answers and then
vet them ahead of all Right, First up in the sup predictions question,
which established pro will win their first bracelet in twenty twenty three. I need
you to lay on this one. I got to think about this one.
That's probably gonna go first, all right. I mean I was thinking this
one through. First. Two names that popped into my mind were Chris Brewer
and Sean Winter. And Chris Brewer has been having a really good year.
Shan Winter has also had a really good year. Made his first trip over
to the Triton Poker Series the stop in Cyprus recently. He had some success
there. But I'm not going with either of those two. Oh oh okay,
Shannon Shore nice, that is my guess. Shannon Shore has been grinding
forever, the Alabama kid, and just he's been close so many times.
He puts in the volume every single year he plays like what fifty sixty events.
He grinds every thing, and he just hasn't come through just yet.
So it sounds like you're calling out Shannon Shore a little bit. I'm go
no, no, no, okay, Shannon Show is gonna finally get that
breakthrough WIP win in twenty twenty three. That is the established pro that I
am hanging my hat on. I'm gonna call out my guy. Oh okay,
here we go, and my first this could be the first hot take
the first question. You might not want to call him an established part,
but carry Cats carry Cats, Okay, I mean, yeah, he's Gonnata.
Okay, that's fine. You need a step up. You gotta deliver,
and you gotta win one of these damn high roller events. I don't
care if it's the fifty K, the twenty five K, one hundred K,
the two fifty K. You're gonna win one of these. And this
is the year you're gonna come and win your first WSP bracelets. Carry Cats
is leading the PGT leaderboard entering the twenty twenty three WSP, so we'll say,
see if he's able to, like Tim predicts here, get his first
WSP goal bracelet in you know, put up some results keep himself at the
top of the leaderboard. So many events um at at THESP count towards the
PGT leaderboard, So it's a very pivotabal, pivotal, pivotal time for these
players who are competing to ultimately win their eligibility for the PGT Championship at the
end of the season. So we'll see if carry Cats can do it.
I don't know if he listens to this podcast or not. I'm assuming.
I'm assuming if he does, you're going to get a text, a phone
call and email something being like you called me out. Whatever, let's go,
all right. So that is which established pro win the first bracet in
twenty twenty three. I took Channah Shore, he took carry Cats. All
right. Next question, will Daniel Nigron you win a gold bracelet this year?
You're going first because you don't really need much prep on this one.
I mean, the math says no, The results no, what listen?
Carry might not listen, but I know Daniel listens. Daniel, you heard
it. The math says no, Okay, The mass says no, the
previous results also saying, by the way, when we're trying to get it's
carry right, we're on the contrary carry Cats. He's calling it live to
the podcast. He might have this whole place miked up. But we're in
the conference room right now, and I've never I didn't even know this phone
worked. It's one of those those those triangular looking conference phones that like that
you just put in office because like that's the thing you have to do when
you have a conference room in an office space. I didn't know that thing
was on or ever working, but it just ranked. It was weird saying
carry. I know that the math says no, Daniel will not win.
The past results say no, Daniel's not gonna win. It's been a long
time. But I'm always team to Gronner, and he is gonna win a
bracelet this summer. Okay, Well, you're out here saying the mass says
no, I'm gonna say the math says yes. And what I mean by
that is, you spend the roulette wheel enough times. I don't care how
many times it comes up red, it's gonna come up black eventually, Okay,
And that is what's happening. That is what's happening. This year.
Daniel Legronnew is gonna win a bracelet. Not only will Daniel Legronnew win one
bracelet, he's gonna win two. Okay, He's gonna win two gold bracelets.
Let's go too, Yes, geez, we're both, we're both team
to Grant this year. I'm gonna go out on a ledge that says he's
gonna win two. But my reason, you know, I've talked about this
with him before, is that it's been so long, right, one of
these years, like he's just gonna rip off like two, three, four
bracelet wins like it. That's just he's gonna be basically be the Jeremy Becker
of THESIP. That's what's gonna happen. Okay, Um, next up,
will Phil Helmyth win gold bracelet number seventeen? This is your god, Here
we go, here we go, this is your guy in like thirty years.
So every second year he wins one. But I'm gonna go the other
way and say, Phil Helmith, you're gonna have some close calls. You're
gonna have a third place, you're gonna have a fifth place, you're gonna
have a seventh place, but you're not gonna win a bracelet. I don't.
I mean, I'm team no on hell Meyth. I mean, I
just I don't think he's gonna get it done this year. I know he
gets closed a whole lot um, but I'm gonna I'm gonna fade Phil Helmyth
in terms of winning number seventeen. That's not That's not to say he's not
gonna have um I wants I want. I think we both want team too.
Well, yeah, I mean for the story, you know, for
the content, for all that sort of stuff. It's obviously great that um
Phil Helmeyath would win a bracelet, But I'm gonna I'm gonna say no,
he's not going to I'm going you said the Math says yes, I'm gonna
say I'm going against your math and say that No, Phil Helmath is not
going to win bracelet number seventeen. All right, Next up another heavy hitter,
Sean Deep. Will Shawn Deep win a bracelet? I'm making you go
first again? Where do I have to always go first? You put the
pressure right on me my punishment. Yeah, this is exactly I want people.
I want to unfold display for the people that I'm good enough. Here's
the question we need to ask about Sean Deep, and that is how much
is he gonna play? He's played every event previous years. But as we
know, I mean, okay, continue, we have the weight loss bet.
I understand how many of the three hundred dollars Gladiator is the eight hundred
Deep stacks is he gonna play? So I think he's gonna be still focused
on his weight loss, he exercise regime and what. Okay, I in
a normal year would want to bet on short indeed, but this year I'm
not all right, well, I am okay. I think the weight loss
stuff is only going to fuel his motivation to compete at the World Series of
Poker and compete to the best of his ability. I also think the fact
that he's been at the weight loss stuff for a handful of weeks now will
give him increased focused, better health overall heading into the summer. I think
that's all going to play to Seaan Deeb's benefit. And ultimately, even if
Shan Deeb does have to pull back on the volume because it's becoming too much
in conjunction with all the weight loss, you know, workouts, meal planning
and all that sort of stuff that he's going through, Shan Deeb hyper focused
on a lower volume of events. I will still take that bet. So
I'm betting on Shaan Deeb to win a bracelet in twenty twenty three. Look,
if you tell me right now he's gonna he can play plenty online events
from the treadmill man. Yes, I've done that too. If you tell
me he's going up by thirty events and be super focused, I would like
to bet on him. But I think he's he's gonna try and match he's
volume while also spending an hour in the gym and trying to eat healthy,
and like he's not going to be able to multi table at two I am
in the morning, and that's actually going to affect him negatively. I would
much prefer you only play thirty events. This is Sean f and Dee,
Okay, he can do it. I believe in Shawn Deep for this summer.
I think it's all going to be an increased focused, better health Shawn
Deep. And I'm betting okay to win a bracelet. All right? How
many entries will there be in the three hundred dollars Gladiators of Poker tournament,
brand new event for this year, three hundred dollars buying three million dollars guarantees
here, that would set the floor, you would think at ten thousand entries,
Wholla, I'm gonna throw some numbers at you. Oh, here we
go twenty The Statman's back is back for the summer Baby twenty seventeen. Three
hundred and sixty five dollars Giant tournament, five flights, ten thousand and fifteen
entrants, just over three million dollars in the prize pool. Okay, how
many entries? Ten thousand and fifteen. Okay, let's glossie. We had
three are events at Eclipse ten thousand, the biggest one being the five hundred
dollars, the housewarming, twenty thousand and eighty entrance eight point four million dollars
in the prize pool. So trying to find the middle of that, I
think we're going to hit at least twenty thousand entrance in the three hundred Gladiators
of Poker, and then the sky is a limit from there. Obviously,
the biggest goal we have twenty nineteen, the five hundred dollars, Big fifty,
twenty eight thousand, three hundred and seventy one entrance, thirteen point five
million dollars in the prize pool. That's kind of insane right there. So
my floor there's three hundred dollar Gladiators of Poker. I will be one of
these entrants. You will be one of these Entrance twenty thousand is my floor
on the field size. I can't give you a real number because it's just
an insane number, that is true, Okay, So I just want to
point out that for reference, the housewarming event last year, five hundred dollars
buying five million dollars guarantee a couple points here. One, it kicked off
the World Series of Poker, Okay. The Gladiaars of Poker is like a
week or two into the schedule this year. Okay, so there's that.
I feel like last year there was. If you're just going to compare these
two events, I think there was more marketing and promotion done for the Housewarming
as there is for the Gladiators of Poker. Like the Gladiatas of Poker has
certainly been promoted and mentioned and talked about, you know, first event at
three hundred dollar price point, all all that sort of stuff, but it's
not kicking off the summer, so it's not getting that initial push. Okay.
That said, the Housewarming last year had four starting flights ABCD, just
like the Gladiators has this year. Housewarming last year was one reentry per flight.
The Gladiators of Poker is two re entries per flight. So it may
not be getting the marketing that the Housewarming got, but you can essentially play
a few more bullets in the Gladiators, right, so all that kind of
comes into play. It might come out in the wash to some extent.
I'm gonna say that it doesn't hit twenty thousand, but it's gonna come close.
Eighteen thousand, four hundred is my number. That's what I'm guessing.
I think I think that if this, if this event was kicking off the
World Series of Poker, then it would be a bit bigger, you know.
But I think the million dollar bounty kicking off the World Series of Poker,
that's gonna be like I feel like, if you're going to kind of
splurge and come out and take a shot in a three hundred dollars buying event,
there's a probably good chance you can find an extra seven hundred bucks and
getting the million dollar bounty for one thousand dollars, like, you know.
So that's my logic there. That's not to say. Listen, eighteen th
four hundred and tentries is a crap ton of entries. It's gonna beat the
guarantee easily. It's gonna be a huge field. Hopefully I'm in there blasting
a little bit. I think Tim's gonna try and get in there blast.
So. So yeah, so you're at what was your number again, twenty?
I think it will hit the twenty thousand, okay, yeah, And
I'm at eighteen thousand and four hundred, so we're in the ballpark overall.
And then I kind of have a one B to this question being one A,
and that is, will the three hundred dollars Gladiears of Poker Tournament be
the largest field at the twenty twenty three WSP. You have things like the
Colossus, You have the million dollar bounty, as I mentioned, you have
a bunch of other smaller buy in events. They have that new what was
it, six hundred dollars eight hundre dollar Ultra stack this year, you have
the seven seven. How much is the Colossus four hundred dollars late in a
later time frame? Yeah, so last US Colossus was four hundred it had
thirteen thousand entrants. Yeah, so I think if the Colossus ends up being
the biggest event, it's a little bit of a failure for the Gladiadas.
I didn't say that happening. Gladiada is number one. Twenty thousand entrants boom,
so yeah, my my. I'm also going to say that the gladi
is number one in terms of field size for the twenty twenty three WSP.
That said, I think it's going to be close, and I think the
second biggest event will be the million dollar bounty last year. Last year,
this mystery bounty event had fourteen thousand, one hundred and twelve entries. It
was much later in the series, basically ran into THESP main event early early
days that the starting days, you know, kind of overlapped a little bit.
I think moving up the million dollars bounty event to kick off the World
Series of Poker is an elite move. I think that that is what should
have been done, and that was done, So kudos the WSP for doing
that. I think that's an incredible way to kick off the summer. The
fact that they are also guaranteeing a million dollars first place prize in addition to
that million dollar bounty prize that is guaranteed. And then listen, I listened
in with you the other day on this like little media call that THESP had,
and I don't know if you picked up on it, but I certainly
did. But but Jack Ethel said at one point that there is a guaranteed
million dollar bounty. There might be two, is what he said. So
I do not remember. So what is so not that they're guaranteeing to because
but yeah, but it's like, what's he thinking, what's the USP thinking
for the field size. If they're thinking that there's a chance that they can
not only guarantee a million dollar bounty prize and million dollars first place prize,
but pa have the potential to have a second million dollar bounty prize in that
treasure chest, that tells me that this field size is going to be bigger
than it was last year. And if it was fourteen th one hundred and
twelve last year, I think this thing's gonna push sixteen seventeen thousand. It
might get close to, you know, equaling the Gladiars of Poker. I
think the Gladiars of Poker is going to ultimately be bigger. But going back
to like what I pointed out in regards to the Housewarming last year, that
the first big event always gets that like extra marketing and promotional boost, right.
You saw it with the Big fifty of the one year, you saw
it with the like the original Colossus, you saw it with the Housewarming last
year. I think you're going to see a lot of that with the million
dollar bounty this year. So don't be surprised to see I don't know,
seventeen thousand entries in the million dollar bounty. That would be an insane way
to kick off the summer. I'm expecting pretty much insane things across the board
from the World Series of Poker this year, so I think the glad Years
of Poker will be the biggest field. But I think that million dollar bounty
is going to be kind of giving it a run for its money and set
the bar very high coming out of the gate for the twenty twenty three OSP
Can I be honest with you, what's up? Ready for the hot take?
Well, we have a bold prediction later on. I would hate to
see two million dollar bounty easy in this event because I think it ruins the
prestige of being the million dollar bounty. We know, I'd not try to
see multiple five hundred k is throwing a seven fifty fine whatever. Just keep
it as one million dollar bounty. Do we know what the ones were last
year? They obviously had the middle of my head. No, but like
hot like you could find out. I mean like it'd be like like you
said one million and then like three that'd be nuts. Yeah. I imagine
if somebody won like the million and a five hundred k, because that can
happen, of course, like I mean it's gonna be me. Oh ye,
well, I'm not playing that event. You're playing that one. No,
It's just it's too early in the summer, Like I want to start
the summer off, you know, focused on work. I'm always work first,
so I'm just gonna skip that one. Um. Just being able to
get my head straight. The World Series of Poker every single year for me
is a bit like I know, I've been doing it since two thousand and
eight. I've been going out there every single summer, whether it's work or
play. Um, but just spending those first few days kind of getting my
footing. You know. It's like when every single year when the NFL comes
around and I fire up all the games on Sunday and I try and put
a whole bunch of screens up with every single game, have red zone on,
all this sort of stuff, Like it takes me at least one week,
if not two weeks, to like get my body and my mind my
eyes trained on like being able to watch everything at once. Okay, That's
kind of how I feel going into the World Series of Poker every single year.
Because it's such a long layoff, it takes me a little bit to
like be like get to get back into the zone of everything. So that
said, that's what I'm going to be doing for the first you know,
I don't know, five to seven days at the twenty twenty three World Series
of Poker, but yeah, that's where we're at with that. So okay,
so you're twenty thousand a little bit over, I'm eighteen thousand, four
hundred for the glad Years of Poker. We both think it's going to be
the biggest event at the World Series of Poker in terms of field size,
in terms of entry number, and then I think the million dollar Bounty is
going to give it a run for its money in terms of that field size.
So we'll see how that all plays out, all right. Next up,
how will the turnout for the fifteen hundred dollar Badugie event be? Um?
This is the first time that the SIP has had a standalone bidoogie event
and they're doing it at the fifteen hundred dollars price point, So how do
you think this one's going to be a turnout wise? I honestly as what,
have no idea. It is my favorite game, okay, maybe my
second best game, wow, But I have no read on this one,
because I don't think it's actually a great tournament format tournament game when it's by
itself. I think as a you know, part of a triple job mixing
something, it's great. So I really don't know how the mixed game players
are going to see this one. I think they're obviously gonna want to all
play it because it's the first event. But I think people might maybe have
the same mindset to me, like will we see you know, will it
be something similar to last years seven Cards start that had you know, three
and twenty nine players. Will it be around that point or will people just
be like, I gotta play this. We've never had a bidoogie event.
I love bidogi blah blah blah blah blah. We get like full fifty five
hundred, So I have no read on this. I would I'm gonna actually
predict that'll more likely be on the higher end as opposed to what we got,
you know, for the stad Lassie or all um the stud high lows.
So let's say four eighty, all right, I'm under that number.
I'm going three twenty five. I think it tracts similar to what you would
see in the fifteen hundred dollars, triple draw, fifteen hund dollar stud high
low, those sorts of things, Like there's obviously gonna be some some buzz
within the community that's in the community, that's in the community right that that
is gonna play this event. Like, I don't think there's gonna be a
lot of newcomers coming out for this one, unlike some people that might come
out for the next event that we're about to talk about. That said,
like, I think Bodogie is it's gonna it's not gonna be a dud.
I don't think, you know, getting three hundred twenty five entries that any
sort of dud, right, But I also don't think it's just gonna blow
doors and get eight hundred entries. I think it's gonna fall, you know,
right around three hundred to four hundred. So I'll put the number at
three twenty five. Next up, how will it turn out for the fifteen
hundred dollar short deck event be So it's the first time they've held this price
point for this event. They have held in recent years a ten thousand dollars
buying short deck event that has drawn you know, one hundred two, one
hundred and fifty entries, I think, if I remember correctly, I think
last year was one hundred and ten. If I want to remember, or
if I'm thinking back on what last year was, I think it was one
hundred and ten. But fifteen hundred dollars price point for this one. How
do you think this one's going to turn out? I think very similar to
the Bedoogy. To be honest, I think that would be give us a
good indication of how that side of the player pool sees these kind of new,
smaller buying events. I would say probably less than the Bidoogie. I
think people don't really understand short deck, don't really know the strategy behind it.
It's fairly new in this side of the world. I would say,
so, yeah, probably less than the Bidougie. We'll call it like three
forty five three forty five. I'm taking the opposite approach. I'm going higher
with the short deck than I went with the Bidoogie. And I'm gonna say
four twenty five for the short deck event. Now, I know, I'm
kind of with you in that a lot of people don't know how to play
it. That said, it's still nullam wit hold them at its core,
so it's easier to pick up and run with it, and you oftentimes see
people step out of their comfort zone at the World Series of Poker because they're
just chasing bracelets, they're chasing glory, they're chasing money, all that sort
of stuff. So I think a lot of nullam wit hold them players who
wouldn't probably never dive into a ten thousand dollars buying short deck event, will
take a shot in the fifteen hundred dollars short deck event. So that's why
I'm picking the number to be higher than I am. The Bdogie event,
I went three twenty five on Badu game, going four and twenty five entries
for the short deck tournament. All right, who will win the fifty thousand
dollars Poker Players Championship. You're going, Dan Kates, he gonna do it
again? Macho man, Dan Keyes. No, I'm gonna give you a
name. I have a question just quickly. I have a follow up question
to this that's not on the prediction list. But it just came to me.
Okay, it just came to me. The player I think it's gonna
win finished second in twenty seventeen, he finished fourth in twenty twenty one,
fifth in twenty twenty two because by the name of Johannes Becca, I thought
we were going to pick the same person. But okay, I think he
he's the best, one of the best mixed sand players in the world.
This is true. He's gonna break through. He's not gonna finish fifth,
not gonna finish fourth, not gonna finish second. He's gonna win this year's
Poker Players Championship. All right, I'm going with Benny Glazer. Oh,
good one. I like it. Benny the Lazer Glazer has had, has
had, has had recent success in this event. Um had a nice,
nice big boost to his bankroll with a second place to finish in the WPT
World Championship in December. Um, so I think Benny's gonna be going in
feeling really good. Um. He's had some deep runs in some no limit
hold of events elsewhere as well, not not only that WPT World Championship run.
You know, Benny is known as a mixed game player. UM.
I think last year when Benny came fourth, but I believe in the fifty
k UM and afterwards, you know, you could tell that it certainly stung
for him to get that close, to have a real shot at being able
to win this event that the mixed game community, especially the high stakes mixed
game community, holds with such prestige. So I'm going with Benny to make
another run at this final table and ultimately come out on top. All right,
my second a little mistake, intuh, Johnny finished fifth in twenty twenty
one, not fourth, but either way, enough still good effort. Close
enough? All right. My kind of follow up question to this is Dan
Kid's gonna wear the motchu Man suit in the fifty K this year? Is
he going to switch it up? I recall him saying on a stream somewhere
where he was going to mix it up, So if my memory says me
correctly, I would have the wage of that he's gonna be some other crazy
person. I think he's got to. I mean, I don't know if
he will. I think he has. So what was he the first year?
It was a Dragon ball Z character, right, I think he had
the green hair, remember, yeah, But I think I think the math
says, so you're the math, you're following the pattern of I'm going with
the fact that he got the most notoriety of going back to back and when
he did that, he was wearing the macho man thing. The motchu man
thing has become a thing for him. You know, it's macho man Dan
in the fifty k. Like, so I think that that's what he should
really lean into and go with. Maybe needs to be the nWo watch it
man. Oh yeah, like hell, I mean, I'm so in for
that. That's what needs to happen. That's so perfect, that's so perfect.
All right? Moving on, who will win the two hundred and fifty
thousand dollars buying Super high Roller? Sorry, I was just waiting for the
phone to ring again because it's gonna be carry Cat. Wow. Wow.
You know I'm gonna text him after this pod goes live, and I said,
I'm gonna I called you out in the podcast. You need to listen
to this one. Wow. Okay, I don't know if you want him
to listen to this one. A good point. I'm going with Chris Brewer,
Okay. Um, I think he's been hot this year. Um.
It was a toss up for me between Chris Brewer and Isaac Haxton. Um,
but I went with Um. I would say the less favorite, the
less popular pick. You know, Nerva Sky, he's running pretty hot.
He is running. But I'm going with Chris Brewer here. He's gonna win
the two hundred and fifty super high roll and continue the impressive year that he
is having. All Right, Will Aliam Siovitch be competing at the World Series
of Poker? What do you think? You got your ear to the ground.
What's happening out there? Let's put this out there that we have been
told we are under the impression that he is allowed to play the World Series
of Poker. I mean, I haven't heard anything either way which would tell
me that he's he would be allowed to show up and play. I do
not think he will show up, though you don't think so. But I
believe he is allowed to play. That's what way of being told. I
think he's correct. I think he will show up. I don't know how
many events, but I think Aliam Sirevitch will show up for at least one
event, probably you know, have his headphones on and just ignoring everyone,
ignoring the noise. But as we've seen in the past from you know,
these players who are very much you know, cast it out to the outer
circle, the outer realm of the poger community when they do come back into
play, like there's very little backlash against them hard letter or Chris Ferguson,
you know, Ali m Sierrovitch. That's first stuff. Like there might be
one or two people you know, that say something, but ultimately it's not
that bad overall. So I think that and Ali, you know, all
the stuff surrounding him, all the allegations, it was happening last time too,
and he still came out and played last World Series. So but nothing
was definite. It was all just no, I agree, but like because
he endured it and didn't like face so much backlash going out there, you
know, just basically put his headphones on, put his head down and play
Like is he just gonna do it again? I mean, I don't know
if if I think yes, I think he'll be out there. Like I
think like the Doublespman Advent is just too big of a draw for even him
to miss, right, Like he might skip everything else, but that tournament.
You know what, let's wind it back because I think he would definitely
play online events, right, that would a lot of sense being stepping foot,
Wow, stepping foot into the horseshoe or Paris is a big step.
If the news that came out recently with ACR and you know the bounty.
If that didn't surface, I think it would more likely see him. But
now that that is in the well, what is that news that that is
the most ridiculous thing, by the way, in the history of man.
Imagine like pokers the CEO of Poker Star is just being like, I'm going
to put a bounty on somebody. Can you help us figure it out?
Like how much your security team just figures it out? Yes, I agree
with what you're saying. I mean, it just seems silly for there all
right. Moving on, Will Jake Schindler be competing? I ween I know
that. I think Jake wants to be back. He he feels like he's
served his punishment. He is being dead quiet out there in the streets,
so he definitely wants to play if he is. If what we've been told
that they are allowed to play the WSP, if that is true, I
think we would more likely see Jake than Alie if what we know is true.
Yeah, okay, um, I think Jake won't play. And my
reason is that I saw Daniel mcgron new tweet out that, um it was
this was in regards to twenty five K Fantasy. He said, um,
if anyone in the twenty five K fantasy would like to share a player who
is not playing, that is, who is not playing the up this year,
please do so. Below. Currently have the following on the not playing
list, and he listed Aliam Sierovich. So, according to Daniel, Alliam
Sierrevich is not playing. Jake Schindler, David Ben, you means Scott Ball,
Bryn Kenny m bids on. These players will be so what I don't
understand the whole scott Ball thing. Scott Ball replied to a disclaimer. I'm
allowed to and at least twenty five people like me sometimes. Daniel said,
haha, the list will grow, so it doesn't look like it currently does.
I thought I saw a follow up tweets. Oh yeah. Barry Carter
responded and said Barry Carter, who's worked in the poker media for quite some
time, He said, have you have you had it confirmed? Jake,
Ali and Brynn have been told they're not welcome to play by the WSP,
And Daniel responded and said, as far as I know, they can all
play, which goes back to your point of hearing that everyone can play or
all these players can play. One I spoke with said he isn't playing,
but either way, none will be eligible for the draft. Now, I
don't think Daniel is talking to Oliam Serrich. I think he's talking to Jake
Schindler, which I yeah, that that's my guess. That's my speculation here.
I think Jake, it sounds like, behind the scenes, is trying
to write things, do whatever he can to like get back into poker.
I'm guessing that would involve reaching out to Daniel nagran New. I don't know,
I'm maybe I'm just connecting crazy dots here, but you know, going
back to when Daniel said that, you know, years ago before any of
this stuff came out, Daniel said he thinks Jake Schindler is probably the best
poker player out there on the high Roller scene. So maybe that's like they've
had some sort of communication. I don't know who the heck knows, But
what I'm saying is that I think that Daniel probably spoke to Jake and he
said he's not playing, which is then leading me to predict that Jake Shinn
there will not be competing, whereas Aliem Sirovitch. You know, if what
Daniel said, if what you believe is also true that as far as Daniel
knows, as far as you believe, even I believe they can all be
eligible to play. I still think that, like ultimately, something like the
event is going to be just too much of a big draw for Aliam Sirevitch
to Mitch. So I'm gonna be yes on Ali, I'm gonna be no
on Jake. All right, who are your top three picks for WSOP Player
of the Year? Daniel Grinner easy number one. Yeah, I didn't pick
him for mine just because I didn't. I mean, I think that it's
just way too obvious, and you always picked the obvious one, so you
can have it. I like chalk. Yeah, you know, we have
calls from Dan Zach saying that, like you know, now that he's got
that monkey off his back, you know, he can kind of rest,
but he does like the chase, and I wouldn't be surprised at all too,
you know it, depending how his first week or two goes, see
him push again. So I'm gonna have to put his name in that in
that jar of people chasing player of the Year, And you know, I
kind of want to put Shortande, but I kind of bet against him early
on, So I don't know if I have a third one. I'm just
gonna go too. What do you mean? I mean, there's lots of
Nate, but like you have to pick three, can you do yours and
then let me come back to my third. I'm gonna think of someone before
before I get into mine. I'm just gonna give some little facts here,
okay, little records or whatever the stats onto you. Yeah, exactly.
Phil Hellmuth is the all time leader in speak very We all know that he
has sixteen we already talked about earlier. If we think he's gonna win number
seventeen at the twenty twenty three DSP, but he has never won the DUBSP
Player of the Year. It's the one like dub SIP thing he's he's has.
He has six team bracelets. He won the WSP Man Event, he
won the US Europe Main Events, but he doesn't have a WSP Player of
the Year award. He's finished second in the WSP p o I race four
times wow two thousand and six, twenty eleven, two thousand and twelve,
and twenty twenty one. Only once has the winner of the WSP Man event
also been crowned DUBSP Player of the Year, who was a tim excited question.
Again, only once has the DOUBESP main event champion that year also won
WSP Player the Year. Yes, Greg Merson, he won twenty twenty twelve
wp Man Event and also twenty twenty twelve WSP Player of the Year end.
That's when he um usurped Phil Holmouth on the leaderboard to test that title.
Of the eighteen times a WSP Player of the Year has been crowned, the
winner has won multiple gold bracelets in a single year twelve times, so twelve
of those eighteen sixty six percent. Daniel Legron New is the only player two
of one WSP Player of the Year more than once two thousand and four and
two thousand thirteen. In two thousand and four, Nagran New won a Tota
Tundra truck. Remember that thing. Remember the truck. It was like gold
or whatever bage or whatever it was called. And then there have been twenty
three players from two thousand and four to two thousand and two that have won
two gold bracelets in qualifyingsp events in a single year but did not win WOP
Player of the Year that year. I won't read through the list, but
just know that that is a fact about WSP Player the Year. All right,
Now back to who I think my three. I have my third,
by the way, but I want you to go okay. Sean Deep is
my number one pick. Yuri Zeveleski, Gary Martins. I think he's gonna
have another big year, had a big summer last summer. I think he's
gonna come through this time around in a really big way. If you don't
know youry Brazilian player, very very good. Um comes from like the online
world, very well versed in all games. I think he just won another
scoop title the other day. Um so Ury's Eveleski ak Euri Martins. I
got him in my top three picks for w Player of the Year. And
then I'm going with somebody I talked about earlier, Shannon Shore. I think
he's I think this is gonna be like the year of Shannon. Finally,
finally, Shannon's breaking through. UM puts in a ton of volume. I
know, you know, oftentimes we like to look at like the high stakes
mixed game players for WISP Player the Year. You know, Sean Deep,
Nagran you, Yuri Zevelski is one of them. You mentioned Dan Zach,
but I think Shannon Shore puts in enough volume and plays big enough that he'll
be able to make a splash year in the WSP Player of the Year.
All right, who you got for your third Jeremy Osmas of favor? Yeah,
I mean he's another one that I thought of, but I thought it
was a little bit too chalk for me to pick. You know, I
like draw and I figured you you'd probably go that route, So I'll let
you have Jeremy. Um and yeah, that's good. Can I give you
a stat? A Jeremy A Jeremy stat? Go ahead? He won two
bracelets in twenty twenty two. He won two bracelets in twenty twenty one.
Previous players to do that back to back? Here double bracelets. Doyle Bronson,
I like this, seventy six and seventy seven, Okay, Gary Berland
Bones berland Man, those nicknames back in the day that were so good,
right, Like what Dolly Bones would Jeremy nickname Jeremy Osmas's nickname? B I
don't know, it'd be something we need, We need to give Brent Hanks
just a list of players on a spreadsheet and then like a column for nicknames
and he needs to just first thing that comes into his mind. He just
inputs. It's what he's saying. Yeah, I mean he's got a lot
of them already. I just don't remember what they are. Is that it
is that all you got? Yeah? I think that's pretty cool though,
that is very cool. I like that fact, um, all right,
which under the under the Radar player will be the biggest surprise of the twenty
twenty three wis if? I mean, this one's tricky. I thought I
had to think about this one a lot. Some people would pop into my
head. Then I would question myself, you know, are they really under
the radar? Are they not under the radar? How under the radar are
they? Is my mind just being blurred because like we're in the industry,
so like we see these guys a lot, but to the common person,
are they lesser known? Like all that sort of stuff is just going through
my mind. But I think I settle on somebody good. But go ahead.
I mean, this might be a weird answer, but I think everyone's
hyping up Jeremy Becca and whether you want to call him under the radar,
he kind of s that's like my thing is like, yeah, he's he's
getting hyped up and maybe he doesn't win to brace it, he's at a
failure. No, I think he's probably under the radar because to the general
poker fan, that's like going to tune into the World Series of Poker coverage,
you know, written articles, recaps like follow the live reporting on pokerams
all, that's sort of stuff like they don't know who Jeremy Pope Becker is.
Like he's known within that small community on social media mostly because that's like
where he's getting a lot of the love. He was on the Cracking and
Aces podcast. They wrote about him on Poker news dot com. We're gonna
have him on the Poker Girl podcast right here this week. So he's getting
love within, he's getting pro poker circle, but he's still kind of under
the radar overall, right, So I don't I don't mind that pick um.
So that's what you're going with. Yeah, Like if he doesn't win
a bracelet, like I think people are gonna be like, ah, he
he's not as good as you think. He can win daily. I'm like,
I would love to win a daily every week. I'm like, that's
not a failure if you don't win a bracelet at the World Series of Poker.
Yeah, according to you, the mass says that you're not going to
win a Um, I'm gonna go. So everyone's talking about one Jeremy Becker
with all of his recent success in these daily tournaments at the win. Everyone's
also talking about Bin Wang, right because he has had some recent WPT success.
He has made two WPT final tables that are going to be playing out
over at Luxor at the hyper X Arena this week. But I'm going away
from that. I'm going with Andrew Ostepchenko. So he's been making some noise
mostly in WPT events, it just hasn't been as loud as Bin Wang's noise.
So he has a tenth at WPT Choctaw. He has a thirteenth at
WPT Seminal Showdown. Those are the two events that Bin Wang is the chip
leader of the final table at. He's one of six at each of those
final tables coming into this week when they're going to film those over at the
arena. But Asapchenko came pretty damn close tenth and the thirteenth. I mean
that's pretty incredible. He had a thirty second w SP Circuit in Tunica.
He had a twenty eighth in the WPT World Championship. I think he took
one hundred and twenty k for that one in December. Also late last year
WPT Rock and Roll Poker Open also down at seminal twentieth place in that one.
We all know that that one has a huge field as well, all
those seminal WPT events do. So he's racking up these really really close finishes,
finishing in the in the final what three, four, five tables of
these tournaments. So I think that Andrew Astepchenko is a name that you're gonna
hear this year at the World Series of Poker, likely coming from one of
these. You know, I would say one K up to ten k no
limit hold him tournaments. He's gonna make a splash and uh you can you
can point to me for hearing it first year. Andrew Ostepchenko. He's gonna
do it. So that's who I got from my under the radar plater.
Which big name player will be the biggest disappointment. So we're gonna throw some
people under the bus. I'm gonna call him out. Who got We've said
he's name many times on this podcast. Dane. Wow, Now let me
Daniel earlier. I'm gonna say it again, Daniel. You heard it.
You I know Daniel's listening. I mean if I don't know, if you
have Tim's number? He does, Okay, he does, so there,
just blow up his phone please. The reason is his outrageous The reason outrageous.
Let this is outrageous. I mean, explain this is he hypes himself
up. There's the vlogs, there's the package, there's the twenty five k
fantasy. All eyeballs are on Daniel, and I feel like when he doesn't
come through and win a bray said, regardless of him, he could win
five million dollars at this World Series of poke up all profit. If he
doesn't win a bracelet, people are gonna be like, if he wins five
million dollars, it's not a failure. Are you insane? I'm just saying,
are you out of your mind? People? Five million dollars? But
he'll he'll get We'll just we'll throw five million dollar dollars aside. If he
wins like one hundred nine thousand dollars in the deuce seven triple draw no limit
bracelet, Like no, that doesn't know. It's it's if he wins five
million dollars. He was not a disappointment that people want him to win a
bracelet and when he does or a crap ton of money, buddy. Yes,
we don't count money. We count gold jewelry that dangles on our wrists,
and he needs to win one, and if he does it, it's
a failure. Plenty of people counting money. This is an absurd I knew
at some point, I was, I was, I was really proud of
you. We got up until this point a whole bunch of questions. You
had not had said anything insane just yet, and now you're just coming at
the end. You drop the hammer with this isn't this with me? Yes,
but it's just keep you on your toes, Keep you on your toes,
Daniel n just just whoever we just so we're clear, Daniel mgrons can
win five million dollars profit and according to Tim, it will be an epic
disappointment. Yeah, okay, I just want to put that out clip.
Okay, um, all right, my big name player as the biggest disappointment.
I'm actually gonna group these three players in all is one because they all
have the same first name, Phil Ivy, Phil Hallmuth, Phil Galfond,
the Phils, the Phils. What did he do to you? I'm just
saying he doesn't play a huge volume, right, so I just really plays
kind of pat kind of pigeon. But he can he can play everything,
and he can play really well. I mean everyone can play everything, but
he chooses wisely what he plays. I'm just saying, these guys when I
say, like when I when I rank disappointment, I have to like be
like, Okay, who has like the biggest name power that people have huge
expectations on but they're ultimately going to fall short To me, that's Ivy,
Hellmuth and Galfond Ivy. I have no idea how much he's gonna play,
right, he hasn't been playing really anything this year, so I have no
idea what to expect from him. So yeah, I can't really, you
know, say that he's going to be playing a whole heck of a lot.
Phil Hallmuth, I mean, I don't know. I just don't think
he's gonna do anything really like of a ton of note, Like he can
make a couple of final tables, but like Phil, as you said,
earlier. It's all about the gold with Phil Helmy specifically, and I don't
think he's going to come through this year, so I think he's going to
be a disappointment. Phil Galfon, Like, he's still a massive name,
always talked about, but I just don't think that he's gonna produce any results
at the World Series of program. I mean that's just my guess, right,
you know. So when I match up disappointing factor potential with name power,
these three come out to me. Ivy, Helmy and Galfon. Sorry,
guys, had to call you out and loop you in there, but
hey, if they prove me wrong, they prove me wrong, and that's
a good thing. So I'm not too worried about that, all right.
This one probably my favorite question on here. Of course, we do this
one every single year. Everyone does this one every single year. What will
the twenty twenty three UBISIP main event field size BESP has been on record a
whole heck of a lot saying this will break the record from two thousand and
six. What was that eight thousand, six hundred and sixty three thousand,
seven hundred and seventy three eighty seven hundred seventy three. Sorry, I did
not mean to short that one. Eight thousand, seven hundred and seventy three.
When Jamie Gold won it, he took home twelve million dollars For that
victory. He beat Paul Wasaka in Heads Up play What do You Got?
This year? There was a big push last year the move down to the
Las Vegas Strip for the first time, got close but ultimately fell short.
This year, they're basically like, you know what, we're doing it.
They all but guaranteed it, you know, in a lot of ways.
So do you think it's gonna happen? And then what's your number? I
think it's gonna happen. The question is how much is it gonna happen by.
I don't think it's gonna be dramatic, like a thousand extra plays.
I think it's gonna be just a couple hundred, steady, steady growth year
on YEA, maybe like eighty nine, twenty five somewhere like that. If
it breaks nine thousand, I think that would be astonishing number and a complete
success. Well, I think it's gonna break nine thousand. I'm going ninety
nine thousand, four hundred entries in the twenty twenty three main event. That
is the official Donnie Peters prediction. That is what I'm going with. I
mean, I think it's gonna be massive. They've been putting all these satellites
in all over they just had the main event Mania Weekend. They've been doing
satellites, online, Gig Poker, slash Club, Gig has been sending a
ton of people in. I heard Foxwoods out on the East Coast put in
like around one hundred people alone, which is just I mean, that's incredible.
So I think it's gonna be absolutely massive this year. They're obviously making
a big push on it. You're going to have all the sort of satellites
that feed in during the world ties of poker from online, all that sort
of stuff. So I think it's going to be a huge year for the
disp made event. I think they are going to break the record set in
two thousand and six, and I think we're also going to crack thousand.
I'm going ninety four hundred. You heard it here. Let's go all right,
which former Wi Sipping Main Event final table list will return or get the
closest to returning to the final table. This is such a hot question,
is shooting fishing matter, I don't know. I mean, this was this
was first of all this I snap had an answer for this, Snap had
an answer for this. Well, maybe you should go firsten Jeremy Osmas.
Oh, that's such a good one. That's see exactly. It's so good.
Like he's very good. He crushes these big field Nolan and hold him
tournaments like he's doing well this year again, like he's doing it. Man,
what did he come? Six? Fifth? Seven? I don't even
remember what he came last time? But can I throw? Jeremy Osmas is
gonna get He's gonna get the closest, is what basically what I'm saying.
You know, only eleven times in ws BE history the previous champion has cashed
the next year. That says, it's very hot to kill Greg Raymer?
Did it? He almost? Do you think Greg Raymer? Jonathan Duhamel,
Wait what Jonathan Duhamel didn't one was last year? Wait, previous champion.
Previous champion to cash the next year. Well, one wasn't last year because
that was Espenjors dead and we haven't played this year yet. Um, previous
champion to cash the next year. I mean to alf to how far do
I have to go back? We have to go back to the very first
year. Actually, Doyle Brunson, Yep, he did it once. Obviously,
the back to back wins obviously got Johnny Chan. Yeah, what about
like does Johnny Chan like, did he do three in a row? Does
he count for two of the Yeah, he did three? He cash three
years in row? So did two of them? Two of them is his?
Two of the eleven because he went first and he went second. Are
you saying eleven uniques? You're saying eleven times it happened or eleven times when
time has happened. So I got I gave you Johnny Chance has twice.
Yes, so I got three out of the way. Yep. Phil Hummis,
No, damn it, Joe Kada, you got Raymond two. So
you already said Raymond definitely not Chris Moneymaker. I already spoiled two because I
said, you have to go back to the first year. Johnny Moss.
Yeah, there's one account. Does he won the first year? Then he
cashed this? He winner? He got voted, I mean did he like
it's a don't know, I didn't know how that countered as like he cashed
as you know, um you said, no, I'll give you one him,
I'll give you one. Hint. Ryan Reese, no, wow,
what you give me? Mentioned one of the guy's name already on this podcast.
Previous player of the Year, Greg Merson, Yep, okay, you
won't get this one. Doesn't play ever anymore. Peter Easkate, Peter East
Kate. That was the one I was thinking of when I said Jonathan Duhamel.
Damn it, I I got him mixed up. There's definitely you're not
gonna You're probably not gonna get the other ones. Tom McAvoy, No,
Bill Smith, okay, Barry by John name the rest of them, Barry
Johnson, Okay, you already got dial Dan Harrington yep, it makes sense.
Uh and pass the sugar himself, Joe, And finally, in seventy
fifth place in the twenty twenty two WSP main event, Karai out of you.
But anyway, it's very hard to do for a champion to go cash
the next year. I loved you, Jeremy Osmus. I'm going with Dario
sam Martino. There you go. I like it. I like it.
He came nineteen, came third, yes, second, second, Sorry sorry
sorry second Alex Livingston came third. Um, all right, what is he?
Another good one by by the way to Alex Livingston, Yeah for sure.
Um, although isn't he in like the worst poker run of his life?
Yeah, that's exactly why he's gonna come back and finish fourth this year,
Okay, and to get un stuck for the whole year. What is
your bold prediction for the twenty twenty three WSP You got first, Someone is
going to win three WSP bracelets for the first time since your boy Jeff Lessandro
did it in two thousand and nine. Do you know how many times it's
happened? Uh, it happened? Yeah, Actually, stat's wrong. But
what well, I think I know what you're trying to say, But continue,
What do you mean? Well, George Danzel won three in twenty fourteen,
but one was in Australia. You're twenty three at the one World Series.
Didn't get twenty three in like in the summer? Yeah, right,
that's fine. Um, Phil Helmy did it in the nineties, ninety ninety
three, Phil Ivy did it? Correct? Correct? Ted Farres was nineteen
ninety three three in three days. Also, Huggy Person nineteen seventy three,
George Danza. Obviously one was Asia Pacific twenty fourteen. That's so impressive.
I mean no, that that's impressive. Yes, but I just I was
only counting the like the Summer World Series of Poker, so so yeah,
I honestly don't have a bold prediction. I'm sorry, this is the one
I should have preppt on. I'll look. I apologize for not being as
prepared as you. Well you can you can see if something pops into your
head. I have not. We still have one more question. This is
the question that you added, so you better have an answer for this one,
which is not so. What is your not so bold prediction for the
twenty twenty three day is that we'll break the record. Because you could claim
that's bald, I don't think it is. It's not so bold. I
don't think it's that bold. Given it's not that bold, mine, I
have to have two of them. One. Phil Halmath is going to cross
the line. Social media and the community are going to be up in arms
about it, but ultimately nothing's gonna happen. He's gonna say burn the place
down. He's gonna call someone an idiot from northern Europe. He's gonna say
fu after this whatever, like, and everyone's gonna freak out like everyone always
does, but ultimately nothing will happen. We'll show up the next day,
everything will be, you know, moving along just as it was before.
So that that's pretty much feels like par for the course. Yeah, and
it seems like Phills in in peak Phil form if you watched any of the
live streams that were happening down at Champions in Texas just launched their room,
which which Phil is I believe he's involved in the ownership of to some degree
of partner to some extent, but he was been writing some people down there,
so he's ready to go for the World Series of Poker. He's ready
to be rate, he's ready to get after people. So I'm guessing that's
what we're gonna see, which isn't really so bold because it seems like it
happens every single year. I'm also going to say that pace of play is
going to become an issue over the course of the summer once again. Seems
like it always becomes an issue in the biggest tournaments, but it really rises
to the top when it's the World Series of Poker. So I think that's
just going to be one of those things that everyone's complaining about all summer long.
Um, yeah, overall. So those are my two, my two
things that are not so bold for twenty twenty three? Do you have but
do you have a bold one? Though I'm trying to think I don't really
have anything? All right, all right, well I have I have some
cool stats that we might hit, but like, I don't think that's really
Why don't you give us the stats? I love stats. I think the
people will like the stats. So yeah, Statman, let's go. I'm
we should get you a Statman jingle. By the way, we're hiring a
producer for the producer slash editor for the summer, so maybe we're gonna have
this person, I don't know, put together like a Statman jingle or something.
This is the stat I'm most looking forward to if it happens. It
should happen this World Series of Poker. But we are thirty one bracelets away
from hitting the fifteen hundredth brace like one buy an American, So we need
to see thirty one Americans win a bracelet, and that person when he wins
the thirty first or she, we'll win the fifteen hundredth braces. I don't
think that's that. I think that's cool. It's a cool number fifteen.
I think one thousand's cool. Then then it's probably five thousand. That's what
I would do next. So anyway, just hate on my stats cool.
I'm gonna be here and I'm gonna say if I think it's cool or not,
So you continue on. No, that's no. I'm I'm really sad.
Now that was my favorite one. No, because some of these might
be awesome. So go ahead. I don't want to. I don't want
to. I'm gonna save him, now, would you stop? Give We
said that we're gonna give the people stats. You gotta give the people who'll
give him. We'll give him a stat every episode. Give him. That's
all I want to tell. My gosh, Tim Timster want to fit.
He's crossed his arms over there. He's about to walk a walk out of
the conference room. This is amazing. UM, all right, so we'll
give this. We'll let the stat man pout. Yeah, and we'll deal
with that later on. Um, but that's all we got. UM.
