1
00:00:01.480 --> 00:00:04.440
But there's an old thing. The
only thing you need to play this game

2
00:00:04.759 --> 00:00:07.839
is a chip in a chair.
But to sit down and win against the

3
00:00:07.879 --> 00:00:12.960
best, you need a whole lot
more. Poker actually isn't about winning and

4
00:00:13.080 --> 00:00:16.280
losing. Poker is about making the
right decision. You got to know when

5
00:00:16.280 --> 00:00:20.839
to call, when to fold,
when to push all in. When luck

6
00:00:20.879 --> 00:00:24.640
shut the door, you got to
come in through the winds, and that's

7
00:00:24.640 --> 00:00:27.879
where the skill comes in. You
got to have the courage to blood.

8
00:00:28.760 --> 00:00:33.000
Courage doesn't necessarily mean the absence of
fear, but you gotta swallow that pride,

9
00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:35.079
and you got to throw your hand
away when you know your beat.

10
00:00:36.520 --> 00:00:39.560
When you're really on your game,
you can look at your opponent in the

11
00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:42.320
eye and you know if you've got
him, or you know if he's got

12
00:00:42.439 --> 00:00:46.719
you. It doesn't matter how good
you are. Everything can change when those

13
00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:50.280
cards are in the air. We
don't stop playing because we get old.

14
00:00:50.759 --> 00:00:59.520
We get old because we stop playing. That's poker, folks. Hello everyone,

15
00:00:59.679 --> 00:01:03.000
WelCom to a new episode of the
Poker Go Podcast. My name is

16
00:01:03.000 --> 00:01:08.319
Donny Peters. I'm joined by Tim
Duckworth. We're recording this on Monday,

17
00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:14.640
May twenty second. Just one week
after we received the sad, sad news

18
00:01:15.400 --> 00:01:19.560
last Sunday evening that Doyle Brunson,
the god father of poker, had passed

19
00:01:19.680 --> 00:01:26.079
away. Sunday May fourteenth, news
started to circulate of Doyle's passing of circulating

20
00:01:26.120 --> 00:01:30.439
on on Twitter, mostly also through
some group chats, text messages, stuff

21
00:01:30.480 --> 00:01:36.319
like that, And then it was
confirmed via Brunson's longtime agent and good friend,

22
00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:41.040
Brian Ballsbaugh. He shared the following
on social media on behalf of the

23
00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:44.879
Brunson family, Ballsbo wrote, it
is with a heavy heart we announced the

24
00:01:44.879 --> 00:01:49.200
passing of our father, Doyle Brunson. He was a beloved Christian man,

25
00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:53.439
husband, father, and grandfather.
We'll have more to say over the coming

26
00:01:53.519 --> 00:01:57.920
days as we honor his legacy.
Please keep Doyle and our family in our

27
00:01:57.959 --> 00:02:04.519
prayers. He rest in peace.
Sincerely, the Brunson family. And then

28
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:08.199
not too long after that, Todd
Brunson, Doyle's son and a fame poker

29
00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:13.560
player in his own rights, also
confirmed the news on Twitter when he tweeted,

30
00:02:13.680 --> 00:02:17.639
yes, I'm sorry, it's true. Rip Doyle for me when it

31
00:02:17.639 --> 00:02:23.680
comes to poker players, you know, Doyle Brunson, was it? I

32
00:02:23.719 --> 00:02:27.360
guess is like the best way to
describe it. He was the epitome of

33
00:02:27.479 --> 00:02:34.039
a poker player through and through.
He's someone who very much impacted every single

34
00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:38.280
person in the game. Whether you
touched a deck of cards one time,

35
00:02:38.400 --> 00:02:42.360
a single poker chip, whatever it
was, one way or another, Doyle

36
00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:46.159
Brunson had an impact on you.
He was a legend, He was an

37
00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:50.840
icon. He was a hero to
many of us in the industry. He

38
00:02:50.960 --> 00:02:53.520
lived one heck of a life before
passing at the age of eighty nine.

39
00:02:53.919 --> 00:03:00.240
And while one might think it's easy
to think that, you know, well,

40
00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:02.960
it's great that he lived such a
great life and he was eighty nine.

41
00:03:04.719 --> 00:03:07.680
Too many, I think myself included, you know, he was like

42
00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:12.400
the guy they would never get.
He just seemed to survive everything. He

43
00:03:12.479 --> 00:03:16.319
seemed invincible in that sense, at
least as invincible as a human could be.

44
00:03:17.680 --> 00:03:22.479
He was so big to poker that
those words that I just mentioned to

45
00:03:22.520 --> 00:03:25.560
describe him legend, icon and hero, they seemed to fall short of what

46
00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:30.439
he meant to the industry and so
many of us in it. No one

47
00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:34.680
in poker had the impact that Doyle
did, and there are few people who

48
00:03:34.719 --> 00:03:42.719
impacted their respective industries to the extent
that Doyle impacted his being poker of course.

49
00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:46.599
I mean his nickname the Godfather of
poker. I mean that really is

50
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:52.280
it, Like he truly was the
godfather of the game. He will be

51
00:03:52.439 --> 00:03:57.639
very, very very missed, Tim. I mean, it was sad news

52
00:03:57.639 --> 00:04:01.280
going around Sunday evening afternoon when ever
it was, you know, And now

53
00:04:01.319 --> 00:04:05.120
that we're you know, just over
a week removed, what are your thoughts.

54
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:10.319
I mean, first of all,
you said that accidently. Couldn't said

55
00:04:10.319 --> 00:04:15.000
it any better myself. Yeah,
it still doesn't feel real, to be

56
00:04:15.039 --> 00:04:16.079
honest. You know, like you
said, he was eighty nine, but

57
00:04:16.480 --> 00:04:19.639
we didn't even though he was eighty
nine, we didn't feel like it was

58
00:04:19.639 --> 00:04:24.319
ever gonna happen. Right, He
just kept beating everything. He was always

59
00:04:24.360 --> 00:04:28.199
around, always, you know,
playing something, and he was always part

60
00:04:28.240 --> 00:04:31.480
of our lives in some way,
whether you're rewatching old shows on Poker Go

61
00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:34.680
or you you you know, he's
following him on Twitter. He's a great,

62
00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:39.399
great, great account to follow on
Twitter. And yeah, it's it's

63
00:04:39.439 --> 00:04:43.720
it's it's very sad, and it's
something that I think affects every one of

64
00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:47.000
us that have that are in the
industry. Yeah, Doyle was born August

65
00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:50.759
tenth, nineteen thirty three, in
Texas. He died May fourteen, twenty

66
00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:56.879
twenty three, in Las Vegas.
He had ten World Series of Poker Gold

67
00:04:56.920 --> 00:05:00.759
brace So it's twenty six final tables, thirty seven cashes, just over three

68
00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:03.879
million dollars and earnings. I mean
that that really doesn't do his career justice.

69
00:05:06.040 --> 00:05:09.160
You know, I think Doyle would
have been the first. I told

70
00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:11.160
you, and I think he said
it over the years that if he knew

71
00:05:11.160 --> 00:05:15.120
how big bracelets were going to be, he would have chased them more in

72
00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:17.879
the earlier years when they were around. You know, a lot of times

73
00:05:17.879 --> 00:05:20.199
he would be like, Oh,
there's a big cash game gone on over

74
00:05:20.240 --> 00:05:24.600
there, so I'm gonna go play
that. And then to me, at

75
00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:28.120
least, it's it's the cash game
stuff, the high stakes cash game stuff

76
00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:35.800
that really shines among his legacy of
achievements. And it's like the longevity of

77
00:05:35.800 --> 00:05:40.480
it all playing the highest stakes,
whether being Bobby's room or elsewhere, you

78
00:05:40.519 --> 00:05:44.360
know, coming up from being that
Texas road gambler and then being at the

79
00:05:44.360 --> 00:05:46.439
Blagio playing two K, four K, three K, six K, whatever

80
00:05:46.439 --> 00:05:49.279
the heck the limits got up to. You know, Doyle was there.

81
00:05:49.360 --> 00:05:54.399
He was there every single day.
I know that the tournaments got a bit

82
00:05:54.439 --> 00:05:59.000
old to him and tiresome to him
as he got older, but he always

83
00:05:59.319 --> 00:06:01.439
still made time for those high stakes
cash games, being able to come and

84
00:06:01.480 --> 00:06:05.560
go as he pleased a bit more
and everyone that played with him, by

85
00:06:05.560 --> 00:06:10.000
all accounts and even the accounts that
came out afterwards. You know, now

86
00:06:10.079 --> 00:06:12.879
people are sharing all their memories of
him on on social media, So that

87
00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:16.199
despite what he might have looked like
physically, you know, limping around with

88
00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:19.759
his cane, riding the scooter,
all that sort of stuff, his mind

89
00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:25.040
was as sharp as ever at the
table, both in his play and then

90
00:06:25.079 --> 00:06:28.279
also probably some of the jabs he
threw at you with a joke here there.

91
00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:31.959
You know, Doyle certainly quick witted
and not scared to go at you

92
00:06:32.399 --> 00:06:36.240
with a little bit of it,
so that that's really what stuck out to

93
00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:42.199
me. And then just overall,
I mean, like my last memory of

94
00:06:42.279 --> 00:06:46.040
Doyle was the doubs ifp at the
Rio the last year when he came and

95
00:06:46.040 --> 00:06:53.160
he was playing in the main event, and you and Morey kept ushering him

96
00:06:53.160 --> 00:06:57.680
back and forth to like the production
room where Morey like had the cards dealt

97
00:06:57.720 --> 00:07:01.439
for their Chinese game they were playing, and like, it's funny because you

98
00:07:01.480 --> 00:07:04.879
know, on the surface, Doyle
would always be like all the tournaments are

99
00:07:04.879 --> 00:07:09.439
so tiresome, all this sort of
stuff. But then like instead of like

100
00:07:09.480 --> 00:07:13.600
resting on a fifteen twenty minute break, he would come into the production area

101
00:07:13.879 --> 00:07:17.160
and play two hundred dollar point Chinese
poker against Morey because like that's what he

102
00:07:17.199 --> 00:07:20.800
wanted to do. That's how he
wanted to like stay awake and like for

103
00:07:20.839 --> 00:07:25.920
the tournament and also gamble. So
it was just it was funny in that

104
00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:29.800
moment certainly something that you know,
we were kind of like it was Meu

105
00:07:29.839 --> 00:07:31.920
and Remco were like sitting there and
like Doyle would like wheel on in and

106
00:07:32.120 --> 00:07:35.639
like more would like have the cards
dealt out. They'd play a few hands

107
00:07:35.639 --> 00:07:39.959
at Chinese, more would mark down
where I think were his losses at the

108
00:07:40.040 --> 00:07:43.800
time of Doyle would usher back in
there and play the tournament. So that

109
00:07:43.879 --> 00:07:46.360
was like my fun lasting memory of
him. And there's a whole ton of

110
00:07:46.399 --> 00:07:50.079
stuff, a lot of Doyle stories
that are out there on social media that

111
00:07:50.160 --> 00:07:56.399
are really great. Also, in
addition to the tenderest gold bracelets that I

112
00:07:56.439 --> 00:07:59.800
mentioned, one world Poker Tour title, three foul tables, eight cases,

113
00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:03.800
um just under two point one million
in earns there the event that he won.

114
00:08:03.319 --> 00:08:07.519
He won the WPT Legends of Poker
way back in two thousand and four

115
00:08:09.639 --> 00:08:13.319
for just under one point two million
of dollars. He was a fixture in

116
00:08:13.519 --> 00:08:18.839
season nine of High Stakes Poker.
That y yeah, So um, that's

117
00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:20.240
on Poker Go. You guys can
go back and watch that. Um,

118
00:08:20.279 --> 00:08:24.279
there's a lot of highlights and clips
on the Pokego YouTube channel as well.

119
00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:28.920
As I said to lead off the
show, Doyle will be Shirley. Shirley,

120
00:08:30.040 --> 00:08:31.799
Shirley missed. I'm assuming you know, there's gonna be a lot of

121
00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:37.240
tribute stuff that's coming for the World
Series of Poker, and stuff's gonna kind

122
00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:43.519
of, I guess trickle out in
due time as we go. You know,

123
00:08:43.519 --> 00:08:48.840
obviously Doyle was so ingrained in that
that sp history. That's you know,

124
00:08:50.039 --> 00:08:54.240
the timing, albeit very unfortunate of
his passing, you know, does

125
00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:58.519
lead into the biggest tournament series of
the year that he played such a huge,

126
00:08:58.639 --> 00:09:03.080
huge pivotal role in helping to create
to grow all that sort of stuff.

127
00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:07.600
So, um, there's going to
be a lot of celebration in ceremony

128
00:09:07.679 --> 00:09:11.480
for douele brunts and at the twenty
twenty three WSPN we'll, you know,

129
00:09:11.519 --> 00:09:15.840
we'll see how that all plays out
over time. Um, but yeah,

130
00:09:15.879 --> 00:09:18.679
it's a sad time. I honestly
thought he was never gonna go. I

131
00:09:18.720 --> 00:09:20.799
just thought, you know, Doors
is gonna look till he's one hundred and

132
00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:24.120
eighty. That's just how it is. He might not win another bracelet ever

133
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:30.600
again, but he'll just be here
forever. The education of a poker players

134
00:09:30.679 --> 00:09:35.559
never complete until he dies. And
I've learned things. Every day that I

135
00:09:35.639 --> 00:09:43.159
play, I've learned something new and
so consequently there's nothing that's as important to

136
00:09:43.279 --> 00:09:50.799
a poker players experience. All Right, continuing on for the remainder of the

137
00:09:50.879 --> 00:09:58.279
episode, so kind of a different
week because we're going to kick off the

138
00:09:58.480 --> 00:10:01.240
WSP stuff is what we're gonna do. That's what Tim and I are most

139
00:10:01.320 --> 00:10:03.919
looking forward to. I know the
World Series of Poker doesn't start for another

140
00:10:05.000 --> 00:10:11.399
week, but we are in full
WSOP mode here at the Poker Go offices,

141
00:10:11.799 --> 00:10:16.000
so we're gonna do daily episodes Monday
through Friday. This is the first

142
00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:20.919
of those ones. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. You are not allowed to

143
00:10:20.960 --> 00:10:24.840
see your family ever again. Although
this is only an hour or two of

144
00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:28.960
preparation and recording whatever it is,
um, so it's not that big of

145
00:10:28.000 --> 00:10:33.519
a deal. Um. We're gonna
talk WSP predictions on these episodes, twenty

146
00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:39.200
five K fantasy players to watch over
the summer, and more on Friday.

147
00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:45.080
Friday's episode is gonna be a WSOP
mailbag episode, so you can send your

148
00:10:45.399 --> 00:10:50.600
WSOP related questions into podcast at poker
go dot com. Tim and I are

149
00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:54.279
going to gather all of those up. We're gonna try and answer as many

150
00:10:54.519 --> 00:10:58.360
as we can. Him and I
have both been around the world series of

151
00:10:58.360 --> 00:11:01.519
poker, going back to two thousand
and eight from me two thousand and seven

152
00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:05.919
for him, I believe, is
that right? My first working one was

153
00:11:05.919 --> 00:11:07.279
two thousand and eight, but yeah, I was hearing a seven. Yeah,

154
00:11:07.399 --> 00:11:11.799
bubbling right, Yes, that's right. So if you have a question

155
00:11:11.799 --> 00:11:16.480
about bubbling and how to deal with
the you know, the feeling of that,

156
00:11:16.919 --> 00:11:24.279
you can ask him. So yeah, South Point Nightly Takeover. You

157
00:11:24.399 --> 00:11:26.000
got to remind people about that.
We're just over a week over, way

158
00:11:26.120 --> 00:11:31.279
a week away. Excuse me.
Wednesday May thirty, first, six pm.

159
00:11:31.440 --> 00:11:33.200
Tim and I are going to be
at the one hundred and fifty dollars

160
00:11:33.320 --> 00:11:39.279
Deep Stack tournament at South Point here
in Las Vegas. The tournament South has

161
00:11:39.279 --> 00:11:43.279
a fifteen thousand dollars guaranteed prize pool
twenty five thousand chips to start. It

162
00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:46.759
has re entry. Tim and I
are playing. I think Jeff Platt's gonna

163
00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:50.440
come out. Remco Rinkima might be
coming out as well. Yeah, exactly

164
00:11:50.440 --> 00:11:58.279
what we're working on, getting some
hats, some poker Go podcast hats am

165
00:11:58.279 --> 00:12:01.360
I actually I just thought of it. Then I'm gonna come up with a

166
00:12:01.480 --> 00:12:05.159
framed item of Memorabiliyah. There you
go for the last longa. Whoever last

167
00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:09.080
longa they get that frame pace of
memorabil we got. We just got to

168
00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:11.840
figure out how to like get people
in the last so long or like you're

169
00:12:11.879 --> 00:12:13.120
not just getting in the last longer. If I don't know you, no,

170
00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:16.720
you gotta be you gotta be a
Sally and see three. No,

171
00:12:16.879 --> 00:12:18.759
you don't count, like you know
Jim and Ced like you don't count either,

172
00:12:18.840 --> 00:12:22.080
Like you need to like give us
a password or like something. I

173
00:12:22.120 --> 00:12:26.039
don't know to figure that out.
We'll announce that over the course of this

174
00:12:26.080 --> 00:12:30.080
week. But again, if you're
in Las Vegas, Um, Wednesday May

175
00:12:30.159 --> 00:12:33.000
thirty first, that's next week,
Wednesday, six pm at South Point.

176
00:12:33.039 --> 00:12:35.960
Tim and I will be there,
probably gonna wrangle some other people from the

177
00:12:35.960 --> 00:12:39.480
Pogo family to be there. Um, I think we're gonna do. I

178
00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:43.799
think we're gonna have fifty hats.
So we'll give those way to the first

179
00:12:43.879 --> 00:12:48.320
fifty people that come up to us
with some sort of password. And if

180
00:12:48.320 --> 00:12:50.399
you don't happen to get one,
you know, so I should be a

181
00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:54.320
family pot. I like that family
pot. There you go. Um,

182
00:12:54.360 --> 00:12:56.840
you can just say I'm here for
the family pot. That's what you can

183
00:12:56.879 --> 00:13:03.440
say. And first fifty people that
do that to either Tim Urai will get

184
00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:07.240
a hat. Yeah, they're pretty
sweet hats. I hope they come out

185
00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:13.360
like they looked in the rendering because
they look pretty badass. I'm pretty excited

186
00:13:13.600 --> 00:13:16.879
for them. All right. We
have another housekeeping item we have to take

187
00:13:16.919 --> 00:13:22.559
care of is the signed High Stakes
Poker Special Edition live stream framed felt that

188
00:13:22.639 --> 00:13:26.679
Tim put together. It was signed
by all those players that competed in that

189
00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:31.759
game. Was A Doug Polk,
Lynn g Matt Burkey, Nick Airball,

190
00:13:31.919 --> 00:13:37.200
Eric Person, Jennifer Tilly, Rob
Young John Roverable on YEP, and the

191
00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:43.879
commentators Nick Schulman and Brent Hanks.
So the winner is Cassidy Watson Perry.

192
00:13:46.080 --> 00:13:50.799
Cassidy wrote an excellent tool to enhance
your poker skills. As someone who still

193
00:13:50.799 --> 00:13:54.639
considered myself a newbie in the game
of poker and is gradually learning the ropes,

194
00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:58.559
it can be difficult to find commentators
that make recaps of games both enjoyable

195
00:13:58.639 --> 00:14:03.240
and understandable. Donnie and Tim have
managed to do both have been a frequent

196
00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:09.240
subscriber to Poker Grow for the last
five years. The Poker Girl podcast subsequently

197
00:14:09.399 --> 00:14:13.480
became my go to for unpacking various
events with all my favorite stars. I

198
00:14:13.519 --> 00:14:20.159
credited as a tool my comprehension of
the game and highly recommended to any players

199
00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:24.120
who might find themselves in the same
position. Well, Cassidy, thank you

200
00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:28.159
so much for that incredible review.
Truly amazing, fantastic. That's a five

201
00:14:28.200 --> 00:14:33.080
star review that gets five stars from
Tim and I. Um Cassidy Watson Perry.

202
00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:37.240
Tim will be reaching out to via
email to you to get you that

203
00:14:37.480 --> 00:14:43.960
prize again. Signed High Stakes Poker
Special Edition livestream felt that's pretty badass.

204
00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:48.159
It's truly one of a kind.
It really is. Enjoy it, hang

205
00:14:48.240 --> 00:14:50.360
it, proud, display it,
proud, whatever you're gonna do with it.

206
00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:56.120
That's amazing. So talked about kind
of all the stuff that's coming up

207
00:14:56.159 --> 00:15:00.360
this week. Don't have a ton
of news items to hit on so far.

208
00:15:01.240 --> 00:15:03.279
Just again, going forward, I
think we're gonna do WSP predictions probably

209
00:15:03.600 --> 00:15:11.200
on Tuesday's episode A twenty five K
one on probably Wednesday, twenty five K

210
00:15:11.240 --> 00:15:13.159
fantasy. I mean, oh,
in regards to twenty five K fantasy.

211
00:15:13.360 --> 00:15:18.519
Speaking of that, I gotta let
the people know that I am trying to

212
00:15:18.519 --> 00:15:22.840
get back in there. I'm close. I'm very very close. Um,

213
00:15:22.440 --> 00:15:26.639
I'm gonna do it alongside Matt Clark, friend of the podcast, friend of

214
00:15:26.639 --> 00:15:30.360
ours, friend of a friend of
everything in poker. Much smarter than Recover

215
00:15:30.480 --> 00:15:33.159
and Kimo. Let's just put that
out there, Okay, okay, when

216
00:15:33.200 --> 00:15:35.039
it comes to you said it not
when it comes to the fantasy stuff,

217
00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:39.679
I much prefer to put my eggs
in the Matt clock bosket rather than the

218
00:15:39.679 --> 00:15:43.480
Remco bosket. So Matt Clark and
I are teaming up to do twenty five

219
00:15:43.559 --> 00:15:48.320
K fantasy. That's Dan and nigrantis
twenty five thousand dollars entry fantasy poker.

220
00:15:48.399 --> 00:15:52.000
Jeff Nigrani thinks there's going to be
eighteen to twenty teams. I feel like

221
00:15:52.039 --> 00:15:54.919
he says that every single year.
Hopefully, Tim and I are going to

222
00:15:54.000 --> 00:15:58.720
try and get Daniel on the podcast
later on this week to talk specifically about

223
00:15:58.799 --> 00:16:00.639
twenty five k fantasy. But the
reason why I'm bringing all of this up

224
00:16:00.840 --> 00:16:06.279
is if you want a piece of
our team, you can head on over

225
00:16:06.320 --> 00:16:11.000
to poker steak dot com and you
can buy some action. We've sold right

226
00:16:11.000 --> 00:16:15.799
around forty forty one percent so far, probably gonna sell around sixty five percent

227
00:16:15.879 --> 00:16:21.919
total, so it is selling.
It's selling pretty fast, so get in

228
00:16:21.960 --> 00:16:25.080
there if you would like some action. Again, that's over on poker steak

229
00:16:25.279 --> 00:16:29.639
dot com. You can also find
it on my Twitter at Donnie underscore Fevers.

230
00:16:29.639 --> 00:16:30.919
I've tweeted out the link a few
times and I will be doing so

231
00:16:32.000 --> 00:16:34.679
every single day. And then if
you head to poker steak dot com at

232
00:16:34.679 --> 00:16:37.200
the top, just click the steaking
menu and then you have to scroll down

233
00:16:37.240 --> 00:16:41.039
a little bit because there actually is
a ton of crap on there right now

234
00:16:41.480 --> 00:16:42.960
with the doubicit Pea coming up.
But you can scroll on a little bit,

235
00:16:44.000 --> 00:16:45.840
you can find the twenty five K
Fantasy League. You can click our

236
00:16:47.000 --> 00:16:49.000
entry and you can buy a share. I think the lowest share available is

237
00:16:49.039 --> 00:16:55.200
twenty five bucks point one percent.
So you can get in there, buy

238
00:16:55.200 --> 00:16:56.960
as much as you want, buy
as little as you want, to have

239
00:16:56.000 --> 00:17:02.000
a sweat with us, and then
follow the draft Monday twenty ninth, so

240
00:17:02.080 --> 00:17:06.599
a week from today, we are
going to be streaming the draft on poker

241
00:17:06.680 --> 00:17:08.720
Go on the YouTube channel on the
poker Go YouTube channel. Just as we

242
00:17:08.759 --> 00:17:12.480
did last year. Tim also,
just as he did last year, is

243
00:17:12.519 --> 00:17:17.559
going to handle the duties of auctioneer. It's gonna be calling it out.

244
00:17:17.680 --> 00:17:19.960
You gotta, you gotta stick,
you gotta. Yeah, you had one

245
00:17:21.039 --> 00:17:22.920
year I called you out during the
draft. Last year you were kind of

246
00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:26.640
all over the place in your timing, Like you got it. It's gotta

247
00:17:26.680 --> 00:17:29.279
be consistent. I had no idea
what I was doing. Well, now

248
00:17:29.319 --> 00:17:32.319
you know, okay, And you
can watch some videos between now and then.

249
00:17:32.359 --> 00:17:34.599
YouTube is a great resource for everything. I'm going to watch some auctioneer

250
00:17:34.720 --> 00:17:37.960
videos. It'll be great. Um, it's gonna be a lot of fun.

251
00:17:38.480 --> 00:17:41.359
Um. So yeah, you guys
can watch that. I think we're

252
00:17:41.440 --> 00:17:48.000
looking to start it around six pm
Vegas time. UM might start everyone.

253
00:17:48.039 --> 00:17:51.400
They're poker players, they trickle and
lay. I have no idea. It's

254
00:17:51.400 --> 00:17:53.279
gonna be at the studio. UM. And then again, we're streaming it

255
00:17:53.359 --> 00:17:57.839
live on the poker Go YouTube channel, so be sure to tune into that,

256
00:17:59.039 --> 00:18:02.200
especially if you head on over to
poker stake dot com. Get a

257
00:18:02.200 --> 00:18:04.799
piece of the team that Matt Clark
and I are putting together. UM,

258
00:18:04.880 --> 00:18:07.920
then you can sweat the draft.
You can yell at us afterwards. Hopefully

259
00:18:07.960 --> 00:18:11.240
our team actually does something this year
and doesn't get COVID. Let's go.

260
00:18:11.440 --> 00:18:15.039
I'm listen, I'm due for this
damn thing. Okay, I've been in

261
00:18:15.079 --> 00:18:18.960
this stupid thing. I don't know
how many times, probably eight times now,

262
00:18:19.880 --> 00:18:25.240
UM having cashed, you know,
but I put in way too much

263
00:18:25.279 --> 00:18:27.240
goddamn research to this thing, maybe
the most. I'm pretty sure. I'm

264
00:18:27.279 --> 00:18:33.680
pretty confident I would. I would
bet that I put in more research times

265
00:18:33.720 --> 00:18:37.039
three than anyone else that that does
this. Yeah for sure. Like I

266
00:18:37.119 --> 00:18:41.799
mean so yeah, I'm just I'm
ready for our players to run hot to

267
00:18:41.839 --> 00:18:47.839
get it going, and we'll go
from there. UM. Triton Super high

268
00:18:47.880 --> 00:18:52.440
Roller Series North Cyprus wrapped up.
I guess as far as we're concerned,

269
00:18:52.799 --> 00:18:56.599
um, so they kind of do
like the two different schedules. They have

270
00:18:56.640 --> 00:19:00.119
all the nolan and hold them stuff
like frontloaded, and then they do you.

271
00:19:00.359 --> 00:19:03.599
I think they actually have some PLO
and short deck comes kind of in

272
00:19:03.640 --> 00:19:08.960
the back half. So they had
what ten eleven events so far? Event

273
00:19:10.039 --> 00:19:15.279
number one, the twenty five K
gig Super Millions Live was won by Santos

274
00:19:15.279 --> 00:19:18.839
Servana Servarna. I think I got
that correct. Seven hundred K for the

275
00:19:18.880 --> 00:19:23.279
win there. Event number two twenty
K Noeleman hold him seven handed, Jason

276
00:19:23.359 --> 00:19:26.559
Kuhne. We all know that name, of course. Jason Kuhne won six

277
00:19:26.680 --> 00:19:30.960
hundred and sixty three thousand dollars for
what was his sixth Triton title, the

278
00:19:32.119 --> 00:19:37.279
most all time. He is mister
Triton as far as I'm concerned. Event

279
00:19:37.359 --> 00:19:41.279
number three thirty K Noeleman hold him
mystery bounty and then what they do is

280
00:19:41.319 --> 00:19:45.079
fifteen K for the prize school fifteen
K for the mystery bounty was won by

281
00:19:45.160 --> 00:19:48.039
Byao Ding five hundred and forty thousand, five hundred dollars for that win.

282
00:19:48.480 --> 00:19:52.759
Event number five, again Triton skips, even number four, even number five,

283
00:19:52.880 --> 00:19:56.960
forty k Nolan hold him eight handed, guguar Azoo one, well he

284
00:19:57.119 --> 00:20:03.160
chopped, Okay, he chopped with
Robert high our Zoo one one point zero

285
00:20:03.200 --> 00:20:07.319
five million. Hydron actually took more
money one point zero five seven. Um,

286
00:20:07.400 --> 00:20:10.240
so those two seven figures played it
out. They played that one out.

287
00:20:10.279 --> 00:20:12.039
I have no idea. Um,
I didn't. I didn't tune in

288
00:20:12.079 --> 00:20:15.799
for that one. I tuned in
for a lot of this stuff. Um,

289
00:20:15.880 --> 00:20:19.440
Ali Jan, I'll that was horrible. Alia Najade on the call,

290
00:20:19.559 --> 00:20:25.200
Henry Kilbain, Randy Lou we're all
doing some of the commentary. Justin Bottom

291
00:20:25.240 --> 00:20:26.240
I think, hopped in the booth, Sam Greenwood, you know, some

292
00:20:26.279 --> 00:20:30.680
others throughout. David Yan Um.
It's really great commentary. It's really good

293
00:20:30.759 --> 00:20:34.359
fun stuff to watch. I love
the timing of this that it happened kind

294
00:20:34.400 --> 00:20:37.720
of right before the World Series of
Poker, so I could just turn it

295
00:20:37.759 --> 00:20:40.559
on every single day and watch.
Um there's a lot of it that I

296
00:20:40.599 --> 00:20:42.440
still need to get caught up on, but I'm going to do that over

297
00:20:42.480 --> 00:20:47.000
the coming days. I mean,
that's all on the Triton YouTube channel.

298
00:20:47.599 --> 00:20:51.519
All right. Event number six fifty
k Nolan hold him seven handed, latchslav

299
00:20:51.880 --> 00:20:56.680
bulligin one three point or sorry three
point one point three four two million dollars.

300
00:20:57.440 --> 00:21:03.319
Event number seven, twenty five k
Nolan hold him Turbo Anatoli's Latnikov just

301
00:21:03.480 --> 00:21:07.920
under five hundred k for the win
for zlat Nikov seventy five k Noelman hold

302
00:21:08.000 --> 00:21:11.079
him eight handed. I know,
Tim and I've talked about it before.

303
00:21:11.160 --> 00:21:15.319
Triton does all these kind of weird
out of the box buying buyings, but

304
00:21:15.720 --> 00:21:18.440
we kind of like it. So
that was a vent number eight. Michael

305
00:21:18.480 --> 00:21:22.519
Soizer one point seven three five.
I think Michael Soysa doesn't he list online

306
00:21:22.640 --> 00:21:26.279
on poker stake a lot he has
before. Yeah, I hope some people

307
00:21:26.319 --> 00:21:30.359
had some some money invested there because
he took home the lion's share of the

308
00:21:30.359 --> 00:21:33.480
event eight prize fool one point seven
three five million dollars. Now, this

309
00:21:33.519 --> 00:21:36.000
one, event number nine, this
was the one that we've highlighted before,

310
00:21:36.039 --> 00:21:40.680
two hundred thousand dollars buying lux and
invitational. So this is the one where

311
00:21:40.839 --> 00:21:44.880
you could only enter as a VIP
and then the VIPs could in turn and

312
00:21:44.960 --> 00:21:52.519
send an invitation out to pros Ramin
Hajiev wins it all four point one two

313
00:21:52.599 --> 00:21:59.279
to million dollars in his pocket.
Absolutely amazing score. They're a really unique

314
00:21:59.319 --> 00:22:02.799
format with the you know kind of
the pairings amongst us, fun to watch,

315
00:22:02.839 --> 00:22:07.720
fun to follow along, and good
for mister Hajiev. Event number ten

316
00:22:07.799 --> 00:22:11.599
a guy who's been winning quite a
bit this year, the twenty five KPLO

317
00:22:11.799 --> 00:22:15.160
Chris Brewer takes some two hundred and
ninety two thousand dollars for his win.

318
00:22:17.079 --> 00:22:18.880
I'm gonna skip event number eleven for
a second because that was the main event.

319
00:22:19.240 --> 00:22:22.519
Go to event number twelve, fifty
thousand dollars Noelman Holdham Turbo won by

320
00:22:22.599 --> 00:22:26.160
Danny Tang five hundred and forty five
thousand dollars. Not the first time we've

321
00:22:26.200 --> 00:22:30.599
seen success from Danny Tang, and
the Triton Poker Series event certainly will not

322
00:22:30.640 --> 00:22:33.799
be the last. Now back to
event number eleven, the one hundred thousand

323
00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:38.079
dollars buying main event. Jason Kuhne. We already mentioned his name once event

324
00:22:38.200 --> 00:22:44.440
he won event number two. Now
he gets his seventh Triton title. He

325
00:22:44.599 --> 00:22:48.559
wins the one hundred thousand dollars main
event two point six million dollars for the

326
00:22:48.599 --> 00:22:56.039
win. Triton or sorry Triton.
Jason Kun tiered up afterwards because of his

327
00:22:56.119 --> 00:23:03.759
friend who passed last year during this
series in Cyprus. Ivan Leoo. Jason

328
00:23:03.839 --> 00:23:06.920
Koon, you know, really really
won this one with a heavy heart and

329
00:23:06.960 --> 00:23:08.200
was able to take home the two
point six million dollars. I think he

330
00:23:08.279 --> 00:23:12.920
also moved into the lead for the
Triton Series Player of the Year as well,

331
00:23:14.440 --> 00:23:18.400
past Stephen Chitwick, who Koon said, Stephen Chitwick is the best player

332
00:23:18.440 --> 00:23:22.279
in the world right now, so
he's grateful to be able to do that.

333
00:23:23.480 --> 00:23:30.799
So yeah, a little bit of
a verbal uh what spat verbal spat

334
00:23:30.839 --> 00:23:34.039
at the at the final table between
Jason Koon and Dan Smith. M Dan

335
00:23:34.119 --> 00:23:37.960
Smith was in a decision at one
point, he had pocket nines against Steve

336
00:23:38.119 --> 00:23:45.240
Dwyer's pocket nines and he was trying
to think things through. Jason Kuhne was

337
00:23:45.240 --> 00:23:48.119
involved in a conversation with I believe
Sean Winter, who was sitting right next

338
00:23:48.119 --> 00:23:52.279
to him. Dan asked for quiet. Kun sniped back at him, like,

339
00:23:52.319 --> 00:23:56.440
you know, you're kind of being
ridiculous. You always talk when other

340
00:23:56.440 --> 00:23:59.880
people are in hands, and then
you always ask for this stuff like Koon

341
00:24:00.039 --> 00:24:03.200
cited the fact that he talked to
some VIPs at the series and they said

342
00:24:03.240 --> 00:24:07.440
it was just horrible to play with
Dan Smith. So those two an Ada

343
00:24:07.519 --> 00:24:10.559
for it seemed like four or five
minutes just going back and forth, back

344
00:24:10.559 --> 00:24:12.200
and forth. You know, some
of the other players at the final table

345
00:24:12.240 --> 00:24:15.920
got involved put some words in as
well. Shaan Winter, I couldn't tell

346
00:24:15.920 --> 00:24:22.599
if Shaun Winter was like joking or
serious or both at different times. Shaan

347
00:24:22.640 --> 00:24:26.039
Winter is an absolute one of a
kind character. It was his first trip

348
00:24:26.119 --> 00:24:30.720
to a Triton event for Shaun Winter. He had he had some success throughout.

349
00:24:30.880 --> 00:24:34.440
So you guys can watch that stuff
on the Triton Poker YouTube channel and

350
00:24:34.440 --> 00:24:40.440
you can see the spat between Smith
and Jason Kune. Ultimately, Jason Kune

351
00:24:40.440 --> 00:24:42.759
comes out on top of the whole
thing and takes home two point six million

352
00:24:42.799 --> 00:24:48.440
dollars. As I said, takeaways, sir, you got me. Jason

353
00:24:48.519 --> 00:24:52.640
Koone's the best obviously, I mean, he he is, I mean,

354
00:24:53.599 --> 00:24:57.400
he's a crusher. Yeah, he's
great. It's I mean, once it

355
00:24:57.440 --> 00:25:00.440
comes to like once you hit the
twenty five K buying level and higher,

356
00:25:00.559 --> 00:25:03.720
like it's pretty much Jason Kuhne's world
and everyone is living in it. It

357
00:25:03.720 --> 00:25:08.200
seems like, um, I wish
he would play more stuff smaller. He

358
00:25:08.200 --> 00:25:11.920
doesn't need to. Well, I
know he doesn't need to. It's probably

359
00:25:11.920 --> 00:25:15.200
not worth this time. I get
all that, but like you still want

360
00:25:15.240 --> 00:25:19.839
them, you know, to play
it. Like if he if he put

361
00:25:19.880 --> 00:25:23.400
in the volume that Daniel Legron you
put in, who also doesn't need it,

362
00:25:23.799 --> 00:25:27.559
you know, but Daniel LEGRONI will
show up to all the five K

363
00:25:27.599 --> 00:25:32.160
ten kpgt events that that we have
at the studio. You know, Jason

364
00:25:32.240 --> 00:25:33.960
Kuhne probably doesn't show up to any
of those unless they start hitting twenty five

365
00:25:34.039 --> 00:25:41.079
K buying or higher. But still
performs extremely well throughout seven Triton titles.

366
00:25:41.079 --> 00:25:44.559
As I mentioned, I mean,
he's just the guys, the guys an

367
00:25:44.640 --> 00:25:49.160
ask the killer out there for sure? Speaking of killers, this guy's a

368
00:25:49.240 --> 00:25:53.480
killer, right, yeah, it's
not it's exciting. Jeremy Becker. I

369
00:25:53.480 --> 00:25:59.079
mean, listen full transparency. We
recorded an interview with Jeremy Becker late last

370
00:25:59.119 --> 00:26:03.240
week. We're going to air later
this week talking about all the stuff he's

371
00:26:03.240 --> 00:26:06.599
been winning at the win and then
he goes and wins another tournament in between

372
00:26:06.599 --> 00:26:10.400
the time that I spoke with him
and we're gonna have him on. He

373
00:26:10.400 --> 00:26:17.079
won what yesterday, sixty three entrant
win nightly. He took home thirty nine

374
00:26:17.160 --> 00:26:21.480
hundred dollars wearing a PGT hat that
I gave him when he came by the

375
00:26:21.480 --> 00:26:26.240
office, lucky hat, the lucky
hat. He's got eight wins since March

376
00:26:26.319 --> 00:26:30.359
twenty fifth. He's still trying to
work out the deal I guess with Daniel

377
00:26:30.400 --> 00:26:33.119
Nagran new and the steaking stuff.
Well, we'll talk about all this stuff

378
00:26:33.160 --> 00:26:34.359
on the on the podcast. You
guys will hear coming up this week,

379
00:26:34.400 --> 00:26:37.640
probably have another win by the time
you actually have the interview. He might

380
00:26:37.640 --> 00:26:41.720
have two or three. I mean, I don't even know, but yeah,

381
00:26:41.799 --> 00:26:45.400
so it it's gonna be fun to
talk to Jeremy. He's certainly getting

382
00:26:45.480 --> 00:26:49.240
hot at the right time leading into
the World Series of Poker. So so

383
00:26:49.319 --> 00:26:52.079
we'll see. I asked him about
the haters, because there's a lot of

384
00:26:52.079 --> 00:26:56.440
people out there like man, he's
only win one hundred and daily tournaments in

385
00:26:56.519 --> 00:26:59.400
Vegas, who cares? I asked
him about that. So again, you

386
00:26:59.559 --> 00:27:03.839
would to win daily. I'd love
to win a sitting go every week,

387
00:27:03.079 --> 00:27:07.119
but I'm not doing that, so
you know, um, but yeah,

388
00:27:07.160 --> 00:27:12.319
I mean, I feel like that's
kind of all we have today, slow

389
00:27:12.559 --> 00:27:18.759
kind of newsweek. Obviously, it's
an exciting newsweek because we're one week out

390
00:27:18.880 --> 00:27:21.799
from the World Series of Poker.
Yeah, it's it's exciting to look ahead

391
00:27:21.799 --> 00:27:25.240
to the World Series of Poker.
Um, it's a bit sad to look

392
00:27:25.279 --> 00:27:29.359
back of the doel Brunson news that
happened last Sunday, as we talked about

393
00:27:29.400 --> 00:27:33.920
at the top of the episode.
Um, but hopefully the World Series of

394
00:27:33.920 --> 00:27:37.480
Poker is more about a celebration of
Doya's life and all of his accomplishments,

395
00:27:37.519 --> 00:27:41.279
achievements and everyone that he touched in
our game. Um. I mean,

396
00:27:41.319 --> 00:27:45.000
it is the biggest and best tournament
series in the world, um, tim

397
00:27:45.000 --> 00:27:49.200
and I will be the first to
tell you that. So um Dolla's legacy

398
00:27:49.279 --> 00:27:56.480
will certainly live on throughout yep.
Um. Other than that's I got nothing

399
00:27:56.519 --> 00:27:59.920
else. I don't think we got
a bunch of double episodes this week.

400
00:28:00.359 --> 00:28:03.920
Yeah yeah, so we got no
Sorry, we had High Stakes Poker tomorrow,

401
00:28:03.079 --> 00:28:08.920
Season ten, episode sixteen. Then
there's another one next week before we

402
00:28:10.000 --> 00:28:14.160
basically stop airing High Stakes Poker because
it's all World Series of Poker all the

403
00:28:14.160 --> 00:28:18.720
time. But we're doing what two
days in a row of No Gam in

404
00:28:18.720 --> 00:28:21.720
the Future. Yeah, Wednesday and
Thursday, we're doing a double episode each

405
00:28:21.799 --> 00:28:25.599
day. That's going to finish off
the season. We have two more episodes

406
00:28:25.640 --> 00:28:29.599
of High Stakes Poker, one on
this Tuesday, one next Tuesday, the

407
00:28:29.720 --> 00:28:33.960
day before our Southpoint Takeover tournament,
and that will wrap up High Stakes Poker.

408
00:28:34.240 --> 00:28:37.079
We'll wrap up No Gam One of
the Future, and then we're all

409
00:28:37.160 --> 00:28:42.720
in on WSAP streaming for the rest
of this summer. Yeah, WSP stream

410
00:28:42.839 --> 00:28:45.279
is gonna be crazy. Um,
Tim and I are gonna be talking a

411
00:28:45.319 --> 00:28:49.240
lot a bit about the dubiest of
p stuff in these next bunch of episodes

412
00:28:49.359 --> 00:28:53.960
leading into the World Series of Poker. We're planning on going pretty much every

413
00:28:53.960 --> 00:28:56.799
single day during the World Series of
Poke. You're trying to kill me,

414
00:28:57.119 --> 00:29:03.279
m you're trying to try You're trying
to kill meet. Okay, we're aiming

415
00:29:03.319 --> 00:29:06.720
for six days a week, gonna
take Sundays off, so that would be

416
00:29:06.759 --> 00:29:10.960
Monday through Saturday. Of course,
of course, of course that is totally

417
00:29:11.000 --> 00:29:14.160
flexible. Who the heck knows what's
going to happen. I didn't know we

418
00:29:14.160 --> 00:29:17.319
got days off with the World Series
of Poker. I mean for the podcast,

419
00:29:17.559 --> 00:29:21.920
we even don't actually get days off. But as I said earlier this

420
00:29:21.960 --> 00:29:26.279
week, we're gonna do kind of
a bunch of different WSAP topics to get

421
00:29:26.319 --> 00:29:30.119
to get the juices flow and get
people hyped up coming into the twenty twenty

422
00:29:30.160 --> 00:29:34.039
three World Series of Poker. We
got WSP predictions coming up. We're gonna

423
00:29:34.039 --> 00:29:38.200
talk about some players to watch.
Hint, hint, Jeremy Becker is a

424
00:29:38.200 --> 00:29:44.440
player to watch this summer. Hopefully
we can wrangle Daniel nagranew I know he's

425
00:29:44.480 --> 00:29:48.599
like super hyped about the run that
the Vegas Golden Nights are on, but

426
00:29:48.640 --> 00:29:51.680
hopefully we'll get him in here to
talk about the twenty five K fantasy league

427
00:29:51.720 --> 00:29:53.960
that is going to be drafting on
Monday, May twenty ninth. Again,

428
00:29:55.079 --> 00:29:59.200
you will be able to watch that
draft live streamed on the poker Go YouTube

429
00:29:59.240 --> 00:30:03.559
channel starting out about six pm Vegas
time. As Tim reminded everyone, South

430
00:30:03.640 --> 00:30:10.759
Point Nightly takeover Wednesday, May thirty
first, and of course I gotta drop

431
00:30:10.759 --> 00:30:14.839
the mentioned one more time poker steak
dot com if you want to get action

432
00:30:15.240 --> 00:30:18.279
of the team that Matt Clark and
I are putting together for twenty five best,

433
00:30:21.319 --> 00:30:23.799
usually the best team on paper.
We all know if if you play

434
00:30:23.839 --> 00:30:29.319
fantasy football or any sort of fantasy
out there, you know that you always

435
00:30:29.359 --> 00:30:33.039
feel amazing coming out of the draft, and then it usually all goes to

436
00:30:33.079 --> 00:30:37.680
shit. Okay, yes, that's
usually how it happens. But calling our

437
00:30:37.720 --> 00:30:41.000
shot right now, this year,
we are winning. That's what's gonna happen.

438
00:30:42.559 --> 00:30:45.519
I'm ready, let's go. All
right, that's gonna do it for

439
00:30:45.839 --> 00:30:49.839
Tim and myself. We will talk
to you guys tomorrow because we're coming with

440
00:30:49.920 --> 00:31:14.960
