00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:16,920
Hello, everyone, Welcome back to
a new episode of the Poker Go Podcast.

2
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:20,480
My name is Donny Peters. His
name across the table from me is

3
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:24,480
Tim Duckworth. What's going on,
sir? How are you? I'm doing

4
00:00:24,519 --> 00:00:29,719
great, great, I'm happy we're
doing great. That's great. I'm doing

5
00:00:29,719 --> 00:00:33,759
all right myself. Thanks for asking
to appreciate it. Um, bubble is

6
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:38,479
looming. Yes. In the twenty
twenty three World Series of Poker Main Event,

7
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:43,520
the record shattering twenty twenty three World
Series of Poker Main Event, they

8
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:49,880
bagged up the players about what fifteen
spots, maybe a few less off the

9
00:00:49,960 --> 00:01:15,760
money, something like that. It's
pretty close. Fifteen oh seven pay.

10
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:19,920
I think there was around fifteen twenty
fifteen twenty one was on the clock,

11
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:23,000
so I think it was. Oh, I take it down a few times,

12
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:29,840
okay, okay, here we go. So tomorrow the bubble will burst.

13
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,000
I'm pretty confident in saying that.
How you sure? I mean,

14
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,920
you never know, right, there's
always a possibility that stuff can happen,

15
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:42,079
But no, the bubble will burst
tomorrow. I'm guessing sometime in the first

16
00:01:42,159 --> 00:01:47,120
level of the day, they did
play the complete five levels that were on

17
00:01:47,159 --> 00:01:49,280
the structure today they made it all
the way to the end, pause that

18
00:01:49,319 --> 00:01:53,159
clock. With ten minutes left,
they announced two hands, which I'm not

19
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:57,799
so sure that was legit because I've
never heard them ever draw two hands in

20
00:01:57,879 --> 00:02:00,519
any tournament in the universe. I
don't even think they but the two and

21
00:02:01,359 --> 00:02:06,760
it was two hands. But you
know whatever, we get it. Um.

22
00:02:06,799 --> 00:02:10,639
On this episode of the Poker Girl
podcast, we had community cards.

23
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:15,319
Do we have community? We had
an update? The hats are flying out

24
00:02:15,319 --> 00:02:19,400
the door. Tim writes the main
events on the bubble. As I just

25
00:02:19,479 --> 00:02:23,560
talked about Chance Corneth is cruising with
a ton of chips. Tim spoke with

26
00:02:23,719 --> 00:02:29,639
Chance. Um. I spoke with
who I think is the star of the

27
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:36,120
show, Nick Rigby. But big
rig this guy is incredible. I know

28
00:02:36,159 --> 00:02:38,639
a lot of people fell in love
with him in the twenty twenty one main

29
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:43,039
event. He's back now. He's
absolutely crushing. I spoke with him after

30
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:46,879
play. Tim road here Donnie dusted, I mean I didn't dust. I

31
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:53,360
got absolutely aft all day today.
It was unbelievable. Polo Bounty is playing

32
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:58,879

seven dollars Lucky Seven's event, we'll talk

34
00:03:04,319 --> 00:03:07,719
about what's coming up, and then
I guess we'll touch on what's happening kind

35
00:03:07,719 --> 00:03:12,919
of down the street at the World
Poker Tour everyone for one Drop tournament.

36

about the lucky hat and how we

68
00:05:41,959 --> 00:05:45,120
gave Kut a hat and he ran
his twenty k stack up to twenty nineteen.

69
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:47,800
Shout out to Kut and things didn't
it go his way today. I

70
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:51,319
should have given him a new hat. He end up running Ace King into

71
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:57,600
Kings on a King high board.
That's brutal. That's brutal good, Ronnie

89
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:09,920
the show, the twenty twenty three
WSP main event is on the bubble.

90
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,000
I know it's a few spots away, but you know it's close enough to

91
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,439
say that it is on the bubble. They've bagged up overnight. They are

92
00:07:15,519 --> 00:07:21,839
coming back for day four and it
is going to be absolutely incredible. The

93
00:07:21,879 --> 00:07:28,720
Bubble day is one of my favorite
days, if not my favorite day in

94
00:07:28,759 --> 00:07:32,600
the Wheel series of poker main events, and largely because of what we started

95
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:39,600
on this podcast is the special edition
Bubble Pod where we run around the field

96
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:44,040
during the bubble when they're playing hand
for hand, talking to anyone that we

97
00:07:44,079 --> 00:07:47,160
can get on the mic for short
snippets, also just kind of relaying the

98
00:07:47,199 --> 00:07:51,680
action as we hear it. This
year, we're going to be handing off

99
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:56,519
all of the recordings over to our
producer, rich Ryan, and we'll see

100
00:07:56,519 --> 00:08:00,399
if he can figure it all out
and sort it for us. But I'm

101
00:08:00,439 --> 00:08:01,959
a little wired. You bring a
lot of pressure on me. Yeah,

102
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,439
you've never done this before, so
I got to give you the lay of

103
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:09,519
the land. But we'll figure it
out. It's a lot of fun.

104
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:13,399
All you need to do. Bring
your phone, Okay, you can bring

105
00:08:13,439 --> 00:08:16,879
that little microphone that I gave you, and bring an external like a portable

106
00:08:16,959 --> 00:08:20,639
charger for your phone because you're gonna
need it while you're out there. Okay,

107
00:08:20,759 --> 00:08:24,399
yep, that's what you need.
I'm a little stressed out. It's

108
00:08:24,439 --> 00:08:28,519
fine, it's great. It's a
lot of fun, all right. So

109
00:08:28,399 --> 00:08:35,759
the Chip leader, I think,
although I'm not sure I'm confirmed who it's

110
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:39,679
unconfirmed. Well, they we're gonna
have an official Yeah, it's unofficial,

111
00:08:39,759 --> 00:08:46,840
but it looks like Antonio Heredia is
the leader at least for the chip stacks

112
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:52,360
right now. One million, eight
hundred ninety nine thousand in the bag,

113
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:56,440
Chance Corneth not too far behind,
one million, eight hundred and eighty seven

114
00:08:56,519 --> 00:09:01,399
thousand, pay Lee one million,
seven and forty two thousand, and the

115
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:07,000
Big rig himself, the Dirty Diver, the Yanser, Nicholas Rigby one million,

116
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:11,759
seven hundred and nineteen thousand in the
bag. It was a day.

117
00:09:11,919 --> 00:09:16,360
It was an absolute what are you
doing? I canna help myself? What

118
00:09:16,519 --> 00:09:20,120
is that? It's the podcast Mike
and the Milky Way. Oh my god,

119
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,200
the Milky Way. Pay attention to
the show. But I think that

120
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,879
would be funny. I want to
put an attention to the show. All

121
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,519
right. So they came back.
I don't even know how many players they

122
00:09:28,519 --> 00:09:31,039
came back with today. How many
did they come back today? Three thousand,

123
00:09:31,159 --> 00:09:33,759
five hundred or something like that.
Yeah, I had multiple different numbers,

124
00:09:33,759 --> 00:09:35,960
but three five seven three was what
I'm going with. Well, what's

125
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:41,000
on the report? Well that's where
I have the issues because this is the

126
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,960
number that is one thing, and
then there's a bat amount of people on

127
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:48,200
the last is a different number,
of course it is, so why would

128
00:09:48,279 --> 00:09:52,559
be lost with that? Anyway?
People were flying out the door today,

129
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,840
flying, you know, coming into
the into the day. You know,

130
00:09:56,919 --> 00:10:01,000
no one really thought that, or
at least the l likelihood of reaching the

131
00:10:01,039 --> 00:10:05,240
money seemed on the lower side.
But as the day went on, it

132
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:09,080
was like, wow, we're getting
you know, the people are flying out.

133
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,399
They getting pretty close, you know, they get down to it.

134
00:10:11,879 --> 00:10:15,399
The math didn't work out. They
did pause the clock with ten minutes left,

135
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,600
as they always do when there's a
rejar coming, and they announced that

136
00:10:18,639 --> 00:10:22,799
there was two hands left to be
played. There was a whole heck of

137
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,759
a lot of tanking going on out
there. I watched it. We were

138
00:10:24,759 --> 00:10:28,360
in the field, we were watching. It happened, but you know a

139
00:10:28,399 --> 00:10:31,360
lot of people made it through.
I think I watched Fabian Quass tank for

140
00:10:31,399 --> 00:10:37,200
four minutes pre flop, which was
crazy what happened. He tanked for like

141
00:10:37,279 --> 00:10:39,840
four or five minutes. He had
two k left. The big line was

142
00:10:39,879 --> 00:10:45,399
six K position was he had,
I mean he was middle position. I

143
00:10:45,399 --> 00:10:48,080
just don't know exactly where he had
like three hands until he was going to

144
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,799
be in the big line. So
it was just before they had announced the

145
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:54,039
yes, this is this is before. So he's tanking, tanking, tanking.

146
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:58,519
He finally puts his final two K
and somebody else, I think the

147
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:03,720
next guy raised to twelve, either
twelve or thirteen. I think the guy

148
00:11:03,759 --> 00:11:05,039
in the big blind or the small
blind might have called his well. Anyway,

149
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:09,639
the flap came like King King high, King like five douce or King

150
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:16,519
five three or so some ridiculous and
the guy, the first guy bets,

151
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,960
he bets the other players out of
the hand, and then he like shows

152
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,240
Fabby in his hand and like points
at him and like he was kind of

153
00:11:22,279 --> 00:11:28,759
gesturing like you like he had Queen
high, he had Queen Duce high.

154
00:11:28,759 --> 00:11:31,120
I'm like a King six three board
that could still be good though no,

155
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:35,679
it was not good. Fabian had
a seven Queen high because still be No,

156
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:39,799
it was potentially go it was not
good. And anyway, Fabian's hand

157
00:11:39,799 --> 00:11:41,399
holds up. He wins the pot, so he's got a little bit of

158
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,120
life. I mean, still has
a lot of work to do, of

159
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:48,840
course, but depending on the redraw
that he gets tomorrow four day four,

160
00:11:50,159 --> 00:11:52,639
you know, he could uh,
he could squeak into the money. You

161
00:11:52,639 --> 00:11:56,080
know, but we'll see people certainly
were not backing down from playing big pots,

162
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,519
you know, even though the money
bubble approach. I mean, these

163
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,399
people are flying the money. Yeah, I mean it was like unbelievable.

164
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:07,440
I saw some ridiculous bluffs. I
saw one guy try and bluff Nick Marchington

165
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:13,879
on a jack three deuce nine ten
board. There was a it was jackoharts,

166
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:18,679
three deuce of diamonds, nine o'clubs, ten o'clubs. The guy bets

167
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:22,440
like two hundred k on the river
or something. Nick Marchington's in the tank

168
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,720
forever. Finally, this gentleman the
floor, like the floor people are running

169
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:28,879
all over the place right trying to
grab all the sea cards, make sure

170
00:12:28,879 --> 00:12:31,120
everything's an order. Blah blah blah. Floor comes like walking by his table.

171
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:35,039
This guy goes four. The floor
guy kind of like turns around,

172
00:12:35,039 --> 00:12:39,919
but then like keeps walking because the
floor guy knows that the player, like

173
00:12:39,919 --> 00:12:41,200
he could you could tell that he
sends that a player called the floor,

174
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:46,080
and the player again was like flour
and so that the floor turns out did

175
00:12:46,159 --> 00:12:50,279
you call floor? And so the
guy or the floor guy comes over and

176
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:56,039
he's like yes, and the guy's
like clock. And and I'm standing next

177
00:12:56,080 --> 00:13:00,600
to Tony Dunns, and Tony duns
is like, you know, his gangster.

178
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:05,080
When the guy who made the bet
calls the clock, I said,

179
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,840
yeah, And it's extra gangster that
he didn't even tell the dealer. He

180
00:13:07,919 --> 00:13:13,240
literally summoned the floor and then told
the floor himself that he wanted the clock.

181
00:13:13,759 --> 00:13:16,440
Dumb. Yeah, like he didn't
say anything to the dealer. He

182
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:20,679
didn't say he didn't say anything to
about the clock. Everyone that was watching

183
00:13:20,919 --> 00:13:22,799
knew that it was gonna be a
clock, but he waved till the floor

184
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:26,879
came over. He was like clock, I love it. So then so

185
00:13:26,919 --> 00:13:28,879
the dealer count the flour bank counts
down the clock and they do what thirty

186
00:13:28,919 --> 00:13:33,000
seconds and then with five seconds left, they count you down. So they're

187
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,679
counting him down, you know,
I don't know. It's like the flour

188
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:39,679
guy says five as he's gonna start
the five second countown and Nick Marchington calls.

189
00:13:41,159 --> 00:13:45,240
So the other guy, the guy
who gets called um says like,

190
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:48,440
you know, good call, right
or first he doesn't say anything for like

191
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,960
three seconds and he's a good call. And then he's just sitting there and

192
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,360
Nick Marchington is also sitting there,
and then and then Marchington turns his hand

193
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:58,480
over right and he's got Jack seven
for top hair, and the other guy's

194
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,200
like, I gotta nie. And
then then he stands up and his cards

195
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,759
are still faced down, and I'm
like thinking in my head, I'm like,

196
00:14:03,759 --> 00:14:07,039
he's gonna table the winner. I'm
like, I just have this weird

197
00:14:07,039 --> 00:14:09,919
feelings. Then he like picks his
hand up and he's like looking at it

198
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,639
and I'm like, oh my god, he's gonna like he's gonna like drop

199
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,840
down like two pairs somehow, Like
this is gonna be so sick. And

200
00:14:16,879 --> 00:14:18,919
then he puts his hand on.
He had Queen nine, so he didn't

201
00:14:18,919 --> 00:14:20,600
have the best of it. But
it was just such a funny situation.

202
00:14:22,159 --> 00:14:24,720
I mean, these people are just
blasting off. I saw Dylan Wiseman want

203
00:14:24,759 --> 00:14:30,559
a massive pot, doubled up on
a king Jack eight flop, gets it

204
00:14:30,559 --> 00:14:33,840
all in with pocket eights against the
guy with aces um. That was a

205
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:37,480
wild hand. If he gets like, yeah, you mentioned, everyone's kind

206
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:41,200
of bloasting and we're kind of figetting
about the money. They played three days

207
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:43,120
of polka. It's like, okay, now they're just gonna kind of stack

208
00:14:43,159 --> 00:14:48,320
off within the rage of making the
money. It seems so odd that you

209
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:52,320
would put his what is it,
nearly thirty hours of play and just to

210
00:14:52,399 --> 00:14:54,600
like, yeah, I mean,
I just don't. I don't think people.

211
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:58,919
I don't think people really think like
that. It's funny because I feel

212
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:03,120
like people have to for whatever reason. There are listen, there are people

213
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,159
who when you get close to the
money, they're well aware of the money's

214
00:15:05,159 --> 00:15:07,679
coming, right. Yeah, you
know. I feel like a lot of

215
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:13,960
people though, they for whatever reason, there's like some mental block in their

216
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:18,320
brain that they can't wrap the head
around that they're nearing the money until they

217
00:15:18,399 --> 00:15:22,679
hear the loudspeaker and the tournament staff
or the head of the supervisor or whatever

218
00:15:22,799 --> 00:15:26,879
says we are going to hand for
hand player. We are on the bubble

219
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:31,919
like until that hits their head and
they hear that. They actually can't get

220
00:15:31,919 --> 00:15:35,879
it through their brain that they are
close to the money. It's like this

221
00:15:35,919 --> 00:15:37,840
thing kept like every time they take
the clock down, like we're obviously sweating

222
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:41,200
it because we're trying to film the
whole thing, like you know, our

223
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,000
production chatters going nuts, and like, you know more, he's like they're

224
00:15:43,039 --> 00:15:45,840
not going to hit it then more. He's like, oh, they're getting

225
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,399
closed, you know, because every
time they updated the clock they dropped it

226
00:15:48,399 --> 00:15:50,919
by like ten spots. It was
getting ridiculous. Like we're like, um,

227
00:15:50,919 --> 00:15:54,840
this is gonna get kind of close. You know. I can speak

228
00:15:54,879 --> 00:16:00,840
from first hand experience that sometimes you
just gonna have a brain and fought on

229
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:04,480
the bubble of the biggest tournament in
the world. Uh, what are we

230
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:10,240
gonna say? Maybe sixty percent of
the people silly in and probably very new

231
00:16:10,279 --> 00:16:15,879
to Poka most likely, and you
know, things happen. You kind of

232
00:16:15,919 --> 00:16:18,919
forget way you are, forget what
you're doing, and like I said,

233
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,440
have a little brain, fot and
maybe push all in with a hand.

234
00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,000
You probably should. I mean it
was some of the hands that I saw

235
00:16:23,039 --> 00:16:26,039
were wild. Also on the other
side of things, you saw, you

236
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:30,559
know, some very good big stack
play, you know, Chance Corne did

237
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:36,159
well, Nicholas Rigby did well,
Frost Joca did very well, Steven Chidwick,

238
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:40,440
Chris Brewer, like all all these
guys who are very very good players

239
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:45,840
and can certainly ramp up the aggression
when needed, they were just abusing the

240
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:49,879
bubble. Mickey Douek had a big
stack. He was abusing the bubble.

241
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:55,320
Nick Marchington, I think was you
know, in there doing his thing as

242
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:56,159
well on the bubble. It was. It was a lot of fun to

243
00:16:56,159 --> 00:17:00,519
watch these big stacks with the bubble. And one of those big zacts was

244
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,799
Chance Corneth, who's been having himself
one hell of a summer. Okay,

245
00:17:03,839 --> 00:17:07,960
so it's kind of only fitting that
he's now at least in the top five

246
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:11,119
of the chip counts, if not
second going into day four. So afterwards

247
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,680
you caught up with Chance. Yes, you spoke with him, So let's

248
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:18,880
listen to that interview now, sending
him a Chance Corneth, I am pretty

249
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:22,119
sure you're the chip lead at one
point eight eighty seven million in chips.

250
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:26,599
Now. I spent the last you
know, our walking around you know,

251
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:30,640
the tournament area, and I talked
to everyone. They agree that, even

252
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:34,880
chop Is, you know, they're
all in. It's about sixty thousand and

253
00:17:36,079 --> 00:17:38,920
change and we're on you to make
the final decision. What do you say?

254
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:42,759
Maybe next year? All right,
maybe maybe next year. I probably

255
00:17:42,799 --> 00:17:45,319
stood around here for ten minutes watching
you play. It felt like you played

256
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:48,640
every hand. Oh yeah, you
must love the bubble and with a massive

257
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,240
chip sign. I mean, this
was incredible, But bubble started for us

258
00:17:52,279 --> 00:17:56,880
at our tablet like eighteen hundred left, and I waited a lot longer to

259
00:17:56,920 --> 00:18:00,519
really go for it than I would
have otherwise. Maybe because table was so

260
00:18:00,599 --> 00:18:02,920
friendly and I don't want to punish
it was bad. Or maybe it was

261
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:06,480
just right to fold the dirty diaper. You know, I'm not Riggsby,

262
00:18:06,599 --> 00:18:11,240
but for about eleven players away from
the money, Okay, we know in

263
00:18:11,519 --> 00:18:14,319
you know, many ease of experiences, probably going to take another two hours.

264
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:18,519
Probably would you prefer to continue playing
tonight it's already you know, twelve

265
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:22,319
thirty, or are you good with
this decision? Coming back tomorrow fresh m

266
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:26,400
It's tricky because like I like everyone
at my table and so like continuing to

267
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:30,519
punishing them on the bubble is like, you know, I don't mind punishing

268
00:18:30,559 --> 00:18:34,759
other people, but I think that
in general it's actually quite bad. You

269
00:18:34,759 --> 00:18:38,160
know. It's like, this is
a major, major stage in the tournament

270
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,599
for people to make these decisions,
and all of a sudden, recreational players

271
00:18:41,599 --> 00:18:45,279
pros alike are just going in line. You don't know if the guys playing

272
00:18:45,319 --> 00:18:52,279
like Riggsby or playing like some tight
older gentlemen. And so it's really really

273
00:18:52,319 --> 00:18:55,359
dicey when like now people are on
this fifteen K pay jump or you know,

274
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:57,480
zero to fifteen k and and they
have zero information. So overall,

275
00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:02,359
I actually think it's a big negative. I don't really know what else they

276
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:07,119
can do. You're already denied the
fifteen way charpen, hundred way charpe for

277
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:11,440
you personally, Chip leader heading in
today four, what is the floor that

278
00:19:11,519 --> 00:19:15,000
you expect to perform in this event. I don't really think about it that

279
00:19:15,039 --> 00:19:18,039
way, Like I just approach every
hand. I want to play every hand

280
00:19:18,039 --> 00:19:21,720
to the best of my ability,
and you know, one hand at the

281
00:19:21,759 --> 00:19:26,119
time a time, one day to
time. Look, if you're watching the

282
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:29,319
broadcast and now you may have seen
a little segment with me and Donny appearing.

283
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:30,799
Jeff came over asked us to be
in it. I'm not sure if

284
00:19:30,799 --> 00:19:36,000
it made the cut, but I
think it did make it deep because Sam

285
00:19:36,039 --> 00:19:38,880
Cosby showed it to me. Okay, he needed that help. We helped

286
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,920
him out. Then, as people
are bagging up, I'm standing next to

287
00:19:42,079 --> 00:19:48,519
Chance watching waiting, and I see
Jeff Platt coming over there in his little

288
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:52,039
expressed boys suit and says, I'm
going to interview Chance, I'm going to

289
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:56,279
vulture your interview, and just took
it. Just took all my glory of

290
00:19:56,359 --> 00:20:00,440
interviewing the what I thought was the
chip leader at the time. What are

291
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,519
you gonna do? Man? Production
wins out. Even though we're kind of

292
00:20:03,559 --> 00:20:07,480
part of production, they still be
Jeff just tossed me to the side like

293
00:20:07,519 --> 00:20:08,599
a rag. I mean, it
is what it is, you know,

294
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:11,640
m But you got it in there
anyway. Yeah, and you were able

295
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:17,160
to Chance Jeff actually talk to me, talk to another person, took seven

296
00:20:17,319 --> 00:20:19,519
selfies with people that he was playing
with, all with a smile on his

297
00:20:19,599 --> 00:20:25,000
face. It's tricky. So you
know, we're out there while these players

298
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,839
are bagging trying to find some people
to get some interviews. The way that

299
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:33,920
the Horseshoe specifically is set up,
it doesn't help what we're trying to do.

300
00:20:34,319 --> 00:20:38,960
And the reason why I say that
is because it's a traffic jam trying

301
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:41,680
to get out of this place.
Yes, you know, it's like I

302
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:45,440
would I would. I would like
in it too. When you're at a

303
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:48,599
sporting event and everyone leaves a sporting
man at the same time, and everyone's

304
00:20:48,599 --> 00:20:51,519
stuck in the parking garage, like
that's basically what it's like. And you

305
00:20:51,559 --> 00:20:56,519
have to funnel from the event center
at Horseshoe. You have to funnel down

306
00:20:56,759 --> 00:21:00,519
a relatively narrow hallway. I mean
it's not super narrow, but it's compared

307
00:21:00,559 --> 00:21:03,680
to like the one over at Paris, and it's like everyone has to go

308
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,960
through the same hallway. It's not
it's not what it was at the Rio.

309
00:21:07,039 --> 00:21:11,599
It's probably half the width of the
Rio right about the way and a

310
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,839
third of the high Well, yeah, the height is very low, you

311
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,680
know, so anyway, but you
all have to go out that way the

312
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:19,680
other. You know, at the
Rio, you all kind of went out

313
00:21:19,799 --> 00:21:22,240
and like it's kind of was spread
out. You went into the parking lot

314
00:21:22,279 --> 00:21:25,759
everyone there was like two different ways
to get in and out. It was

315
00:21:26,039 --> 00:21:27,720
multiple, Yeah, it was.
It was kind of spread out. Um

316
00:21:27,759 --> 00:21:30,799
Here, it's like basically one way
in, one way out type of situation.

317
00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:34,160
Um So everyone like is like trying
to bag up their chips as fast

318
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:37,359
as possible, trying to get out
there. You see people, you know,

319
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:38,920
we talked about it on yesterday show. You see people that you know,

320
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:41,240
they just leave early. They don't
play the last couple of hands,

321
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:44,960
so they can beat all the traffic, so it's not conducive for us trying

322
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,480
to grab players and keep them from
an extra draft five or ten minutes,

323
00:21:47,519 --> 00:21:51,240
because you know they don't want to. But on the flip side of that,

324
00:21:51,279 --> 00:21:52,240
you know Chance is obviously really good
at that. You know, he

325
00:21:52,319 --> 00:21:55,640
enjoys it and he you know,
does take time out of his day,

326
00:21:55,640 --> 00:22:00,359
and we appreciate that. What I
was gonna lead into is that if that

327
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,240
was me and I was like a
Chance Cornis, I mean, Chance might

328
00:22:03,279 --> 00:22:06,200
not need it, but because he
already is, you know, known in

329
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:07,720
the industry, known to poker fans
around the world, et cetera. But

330
00:22:08,839 --> 00:22:11,920
this is like your moment, you
know, they could be your moment that

331
00:22:12,279 --> 00:22:15,680
this tournament we see it every single
year. Okay, you see chip leaders

332
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,680
on day three, Day four,
Day five, they ultimately like, don't

333
00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:23,240
crack the top twenty seven because this
tournament is such a beast. There's so

334
00:22:23,279 --> 00:22:27,000
many obstacles. Everything can you know, go you know, left, right,

335
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:32,400
up, down, sideways like it
can just fall apart. So while

336
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:34,559
you're in the spotlight, you might
as well take advantage of it. Do

337
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:38,119
all the interviews that you can,
um, you know, take the selfies,

338
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:41,680
all that sort of stuff. Take
the photos, talk to Jeff Platt

339
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:44,440
on camera, like you know everything
right, Like just do it while you

340
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:48,480
can soak it up because you don't
know how long it'll last in this thing.

341
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,400
A couple hands go your go,
you know, not your way,

342
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:56,680
and you're just you know, you're
on the sidelines watching. Kind of one

343
00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:00,519
person who I feel like kind of
caught some of that, uh at Spark

344
00:23:00,559 --> 00:23:03,839
a couple of years ago, Nick
Rigby, the Yinzer out of Pittsburgh,

345
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:07,640
the dirty guy, Big himself,
the Big rig I mean, this guy

346
00:23:07,759 --> 00:23:15,160
is like he's he's moved up my
favorite poker players to watch list so damn

347
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:18,480
fast. Yeah, he's amazing.
And then I spoke with him after play

348
00:23:18,559 --> 00:23:23,559
today he bagged one million, seven
hundred nineteen thousand. I mean he's like

349
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,880
he knows that, like he's like
a bit of a blaster, but he

350
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,799
just like he doesn't care, like
you know, he's like, this is

351
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:32,440
this is how I play, this
is what I do. I mean,

352
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,759
it's awesome what I love about Rigby. Day one day finished with four hundred

353
00:23:34,759 --> 00:23:38,960
and eight thousand. Day two ABC
second in chips with eight seventy nine.

354
00:23:40,599 --> 00:23:44,960
Day three unconfirmed. Maybe he's somewhere
in the top five, but one point

355
00:23:45,039 --> 00:23:48,359
seven million in chips. Yeah,
and he's just Chipichim said, like,

356
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,480
you know, he got out to
one point four then he got down to

357
00:23:51,599 --> 00:23:52,759
nine hundred, and then he got
back up to what like he's all over

358
00:23:52,799 --> 00:23:56,359
them over the place. He's like, there was a guy that started three

359
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:59,039
better me, Like, I mean, listen, well, I'll just play

360
00:23:59,079 --> 00:24:02,400
the interview. You guys into it. I'm here at the end of day

361
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:06,400
three. Nicholas Rigby, how did
you do today? I came out of

362
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:08,640
the gates hot. I started the
day with just over nine hundred k.

363
00:24:10,519 --> 00:24:12,559
I came right out and got up
to one point four million. Was feeling

364
00:24:12,599 --> 00:24:18,119
pretty good. There was a player
at my table that proved to be a

365
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:22,160
little bit difficult. He was three
better me, light with some smaller pocket

366
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:26,119
pairs, and we battled for you
know, better end of four or five

367
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:30,079
hours there towards the end, and
I got the best of him at the

368
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:33,359
end. I mean he's still sitting
probably in six hundred thousand, but he

369
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,720
shot up over million at one point, and I mean we were just swinging

370
00:24:36,759 --> 00:24:38,440
back and forth. We might as
well have been playing heads up honestly.

371
00:24:40,519 --> 00:24:42,319
So I got in some trouble.
I went dropped down from the one point

372
00:24:42,319 --> 00:24:47,599
four to nine. I lost a
huge hand where he peeled on it with

373
00:24:47,599 --> 00:24:49,000
a gutshot against me and hit it
and I paid him off. I lost

374
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,319
like four hundred thousand, So I
dropped down like five hundred and twenty k

375
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:56,839
at a point in time, and
I made a couple of big spots where

376
00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:03,640
I peeled, peeled, hit a
guy, are on someone flop two's foot

377
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,119
one hand, and next thing you
know is right back over a million.

378
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:10,279
And then just apply the pressure in
this last hour, who got up over

379
00:25:10,319 --> 00:25:12,839
one point seven? So you're smiling
there as you're telling me about your day.

380
00:25:14,079 --> 00:25:17,079
You obviously must love playing the style
that you do. Do you ever

381
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:19,000
worry that it's gonna backfire against you? Or are you just really confident in

382
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:22,640
how you play? I mean,
I'm confident in how I play. It

383
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:26,880
could definitely be volatile at times when
you're sitting there trying to push the issue,

384
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:30,400
but I mean it needs to be
done with the big stack, and

385
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:33,480
let's everyone dreams about playing with a
big stack. It should be the easiest

386
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:37,240
way to play. But you're just
kind of sick once you take those dips.

387
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:38,839
So I'm glad I could backback,
bounce back at the end. There,

388
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,599
What have you learned from the last
run you had back in twenty twenty

389
00:25:42,599 --> 00:25:48,599
one that you're taking to this run? Now, just take a couple more

390
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:52,640
breasts and think about some hands.
These guys don't want to bluff me.

391
00:25:52,799 --> 00:25:59,960
I mean, I've caught him in
spots and first hand back after dinner break

392
00:26:00,039 --> 00:26:02,640
on day six a year and a
half ago, was sick for me.

393
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:07,880
Came back out of your slow played
aces. I flopped queen high flush and

394
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,319
he's got the ace of hearts and
just peels off hearts and I just I

395
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:14,000
pay him off like about third of
my stack, just like mistakes like that.

396
00:26:14,079 --> 00:26:17,400
Like he's not bluffing in those types
of spots. So it's just kind

397
00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:21,640
of being like more consciences and these
different spots and whether or not you know,

398
00:26:21,839 --> 00:26:23,480
tournament chips are valuable. I don't
think that these guys want to sit

399
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:29,960
there and risk bluffing a madman such
as myself. So and I think after

400
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,839
the first hand after dinner break tomorrow, if I do make it that far,

401
00:26:34,039 --> 00:26:38,680
one won't find me back immediately after
dinner break because today I also flopped

402
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,799
trip kings with a ten kicker and
some guy flopped five full kings against me,

403
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:47,680
So first hand after dinner break is
not for me. How many how

404
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:52,839
many diapers were dished out today?
I think I won with it three times

405
00:26:53,759 --> 00:27:00,960
and the fourth time it was a
really odd limp. The hijack to my

406
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,880
immediate right, there was someone that
was sitting short stack for quite a while

407
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:10,799
and I opened a five X and
the cut off and the uh, the

408
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:15,960
button elected to jam for jam for
about eleven big So I'm already rolling my

409
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,400
eyes where I know I'm gonna have
to call the diaper off, probably drawing

410
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:22,079
near dead, but the price would
probably be right. Uh. The odd

411
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:25,279
limp, which was the only limp
of the day, alexa shove for about

412
00:27:25,319 --> 00:27:27,799
two hundred thousand, So that makes
my decision pretty easy where I fold the

413
00:27:27,839 --> 00:27:33,079
diaper. The holdings of the limper
were aces, the button were nines,

414
00:27:33,839 --> 00:27:37,559
The flop was eight seven deuce,
the turn was the three, and the

415
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:41,559
river was the three. So that
was a little deflating to watch that run

416
00:27:41,599 --> 00:27:45,160
out. But you know, you
can't fold the hand that you're made for.

417
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:48,599
Yeah, that's because that's karma.
Just coming back to bite in the

418
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:52,240
ass. So h no, but
you know I don't. I'm not gonna

419
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:55,559
call it the diaper against taces so
sick to see. I think that happened

420
00:27:55,599 --> 00:27:57,559
last year as well, where I
folded it and I was up would be

421
00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,880
up against kings and as king in
the flow us three or three twos.

422
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:02,960
I mean, they're gonna have that. But as long as you're making the

423
00:28:03,039 --> 00:28:14,640
right folds, then you can't dwell
on stuff like that. I'm gonna trying

424
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,720
to talk to him, maybe not
every day, but maybe every other day

425
00:28:17,799 --> 00:28:21,000
something like that, because he's just
he's a treat. If he keeps doubling

426
00:28:21,079 --> 00:28:22,319
up every day, we're gonna have
to speak to him. He plays like

427
00:28:22,319 --> 00:28:26,200
an animal. Okay, he speaks
very well. He loves it. He's

428
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:30,559
well aware of the situation. Like
I just I love it. I'm entertained

429
00:28:30,559 --> 00:28:33,240
by him. What's the story exactly? Um, I mean he's just from

430
00:28:33,279 --> 00:28:37,680
Pittsburgh. I think he's actually a
dealer. Um. And then you know,

431
00:28:37,759 --> 00:28:41,039
plays poker on the side, takes
some shots. I think he's a

432
00:28:41,039 --> 00:28:42,839
bit of a you know, a
gambler in a lot of ways, Like

433
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,880
he seems like a type of guy
or from everything that I've heard, you

434
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:48,720
know, he kind of saves up
some money plays him, takes some big

435
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:52,200
shots in some cash games, some
tournaments like the ten thousand dollars main events,

436
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:56,160
stuff like that, and you know, tries to spin it. Right.

437
00:28:56,119 --> 00:29:00,519
That's great. That's how to get
him in the PGT. I think

438
00:29:00,519 --> 00:29:03,640
that's the most important question. How
do we get him in a shittio doesn't

439
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:07,839
necessarily feel like a guy who I
mean, he needs cash for a million

440
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,960
or more, That's what I'm saying. So he needs to come in eighth

441
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:15,200
place. Well, I feel like
I feel like, you know, not

442
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:18,839
the PGT. We need to get
him on like No Gam in the Future,

443
00:29:18,319 --> 00:29:22,079
yeah, poker, like you know, get him on the cash game

444
00:29:22,119 --> 00:29:25,119
shows, especially if he is a
I mean I've heard he likes to play

445
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:26,759
the cash games in the in the
Fitzburgh area. So if he's a cash

446
00:29:26,759 --> 00:29:29,839
guy, like, I mean,
let's go, let's get him in some

447
00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:32,839
of those shows, right. I
mean, could you imagine Rigby on No

448
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:36,519
gaml in the Future, Jeff Platon, Brett Hanks calling it. He's out

449
00:29:36,559 --> 00:29:40,400
there messing around that that wheel every
second, but that that show, Like,

450
00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:42,440
you know, we could make we
could make the show like instead of

451
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:48,920
having seven deuce on the on the
Wheel of Pain, yeah, we could

452
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,359
have the dirty diaper on there.
You know, I'm all in on this

453
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:52,960
side of this is the greatest idea
you've ever had. We'll build a whole

454
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:56,920
damn show around Nick Rigby. I
mean, this has to happen, you

455
00:29:56,960 --> 00:30:00,559
know, just kind of looking around
the room. Some other notables who have

456
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:04,960
bagged up chips. Stephen Chidwick,
I think he bagged seven figures stack,

457
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:11,880
Yeah, one point one zero six
million. You had Yury Zeveleski, Maurice

458
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:15,480
Hawkins, Jason Somerville, Dylan Wiseman, Julian Martini, Nick Guaganty, Alex

459
00:30:15,519 --> 00:30:22,720
Foxon, James Ops, Patrick Antonius, Bert Traun, Elkie Grosspellier, Andrew

460
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:26,960
Neimi, Alexandra Botez, Ryan Garcia, the Boxer, Ben Lamb, and

461
00:30:27,119 --> 00:30:34,440
Jason Mercier all bagging chips. You
also had Joe Hasham, former Manhiman Champion,

462
00:30:34,599 --> 00:30:38,960
as Is, Johnny Chant, Chris
Moneymaker, Joe Kata, and Jamie

463
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:45,440
Gold. So all those former champs
are still in kind of cool to see

464
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:49,720
Jamie Gold still in the mix.
Of course, this WSP main event set

465
00:30:49,799 --> 00:30:55,079
the record for the largest World Series
of Poker main event ever, breaking the

466
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:59,640
two thousand and six Wman Events record, and that was the year that Jamie

467
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:04,720
Gold famously won it. All notable
eliminations including some champions two fall, Ryan

468
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:11,119
Reese, Joe mckeann and Damien Salis. And I'll say Asterick Barry Showman.

469
00:31:11,799 --> 00:31:15,119
He won Europe. He didn't win
the one champ. He didn't win the

470
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:18,880
one here. M Sean deeb also
busted, Bart Hanson, Martin Zamani,

471
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:23,960
JC Tran, Randy Ohel, George
Holmes, Elie Elezra, Todd Brunson,

472
00:31:25,319 --> 00:31:30,480
Tom Dwan who busted on the main
feature table under the bright lights and cameras,

473
00:31:30,519 --> 00:31:33,319
Mike Madison, Robert Ms, Rocky
David, the gun slinger back and

474
00:31:33,839 --> 00:31:36,839
you had to do it, I
did. You had to do it,

475
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:38,759
of course, Donny Peter, we
got to talk about it. I had

476
00:31:38,799 --> 00:31:42,759
to put you in it. Just
brutal. We want to talk about we

477
00:31:42,839 --> 00:31:47,920
wanted let's talk about the day we
started with eighty two thousand. I started

478
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:52,000
with eighty two thousand. He ran
it up. I was in a perfect

479
00:31:52,079 --> 00:31:56,839
seat. I was in the corner
of the room. It was cold over

480
00:31:56,920 --> 00:32:00,160
there. There was no tables behind
me. I was in my favorite seat

481
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:04,119
at the table. You were on
the back wall. Was literally on the

482
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:08,200
back wall. It was the bet. It was honestly the best seat in

483
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:12,000
the whole house. I'm not joking. Yeah, that seat that I had,

484
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:15,559
the absolute top top seat in the
whole house. So I'm feeling good.

485
00:32:16,319 --> 00:32:20,839
Um. I got to be very
active early, which was a very

486
00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:24,200
different than the first two days and
I had when I was just didn't have

487
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:27,400
any hands, didn't really have any
spots, so I had to be very

488
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:30,160
selective and practice a whole crap ton
of patients. But this one, UM,

489
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:32,720
I had some good hands to start. I had some good spots early

490
00:32:32,799 --> 00:32:36,480
on, so I was very active
early. Immediately went from eighty two to

491
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,480
one hundred and twenty or so.
I end up losing one pot to go

492
00:32:39,599 --> 00:32:44,559
back under a hundred. When I
three bet A's Queen Middle Physician opened,

493
00:32:44,599 --> 00:32:46,920
I threw about the button. Um
it came king high on the flop.

494
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:52,160
I got check called on the flop
and then I shut it down after that,

495
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:54,839
but I did find a double do
that same guy. I opened the

496
00:32:57,119 --> 00:33:04,240
LoJack with pocket sevens. He three
bet from the big blind. I decided

497
00:33:04,319 --> 00:33:07,039
I had I think thirty two or
thirty three bigs at the time. I

498
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:12,519
decided to put it in let's go. I said, you know what,

499
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:15,680
let's go. I'm not here to
just play like a giant baby, so

500
00:33:15,839 --> 00:33:20,599
we're gonna put this in here.
And for whatever reason after after I had

501
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:25,519
three bet that guy and watching him
play early on, I got the sense

502
00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:30,960
that he was going to take the
approach of like not letting himself get bullied

503
00:33:31,279 --> 00:33:35,480
in a way, you know,
so like he might three bet a little

504
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:37,599
bit lighter. I did see him
like three bet at ten nine off at

505
00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:40,519
one point, like he played some
weird hands. He happened to have ace

506
00:33:40,599 --> 00:33:43,720
king this time he had ace king
off, so he calls it off.

507
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:45,440
But the seventh hold, baby,
because we win flips, that's what we

508
00:33:45,519 --> 00:33:49,240
do. It was my fourth time
all in the tournament and I won.

509
00:33:49,519 --> 00:33:52,680
I had won all of them so
far, so feeling good. It was

510
00:33:52,759 --> 00:33:55,000
really weird because the money went in
and I was like, I just I

511
00:33:55,119 --> 00:33:58,519
like the board ran out and I
like didn't even feel like I was like,

512
00:33:58,559 --> 00:34:00,519
I'm just gonna win this hand,
Like I just that I was gonna

513
00:34:00,519 --> 00:34:01,920
win some confident. Yeah, it
was I don't know it was just weird.

514
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,920
You just sometimes you know you feel
that way, and then other times

515
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,640
you feel the opposite, and then
you know they just smack you right away.

516
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:08,880
You're just like of course, you
know, of course, like so

517
00:34:09,039 --> 00:34:13,039
whatever. Um. So I find
that double up, Um, then I

518
00:34:13,079 --> 00:34:15,400
want another nice hand with a flush. This hand was a fun one.

519
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:21,079
Guy opens from the low jack.
I call on the button with queen jack

520
00:34:21,159 --> 00:34:25,480
of clubs. I was debating between
three betting or just calling. I settled

521
00:34:25,519 --> 00:34:29,360
on just calling, opting to play
in position against him. He was a

522
00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:32,440
newer player at the table, so
I didn't really have any information on him.

523
00:34:32,599 --> 00:34:35,719
You know, this might have been
like his third or fourth hand or

524
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:38,639
something like that at the table.
Big blind also came along. It came

525
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:44,159
eight five four m the five and
the four were clubs. I think it

526
00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:47,239
was the eight hearts or eighty diamonds
and I so I have two overs to

527
00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:52,840
the board and the queen high flush
draw. It checks around. The turn

528
00:34:53,119 --> 00:34:57,159
is a three. UM. I
didn't want to I didn't want to bet

529
00:34:57,199 --> 00:35:00,519
the flop in position because I thought
there would be a good chance that this

530
00:35:00,679 --> 00:35:04,360
could connect with the big blinds range, and I didn't want to get check

531
00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:06,280
raised, and then you know,
not that I can. I can still

532
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:08,840
obviously play my hand, but it
just makes it a little bit more trickier.

533
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:12,039
I have to build a pole with
a cleanie flush tracks of us.

534
00:35:12,079 --> 00:35:15,920
So I just opted to check back
on the flop three. On the turn

535
00:35:16,559 --> 00:35:20,280
blank three, I think it was
the three of spades, Big blind leads

536
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:24,360
for six K. Low jack calls. I call rivers a seven of clubs,

537
00:35:24,559 --> 00:35:30,960
so it's eight five four three seven, and there's the flush shock comes

538
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:36,400
in, so I make my flush. It checks to me there's about thirty

539
00:35:36,519 --> 00:35:38,599
eight thousand in the pots something like
that. I bet thirty four thousand,

540
00:35:38,679 --> 00:35:44,800
five hundred. Big blindfold Lowjack tanks
for a while. He starts talking about

541
00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:46,280
like what sixes I can have?
You know, do you have pocket six?

542
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:50,840
Is this this and this whatever?
He eventually calls boom, chip up

543
00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:53,039
over two hundred K with that hand. So I go into the break with

544
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:57,639
a little over two hundred thousand.
So I'm feeling great. Start with eighty

545
00:35:57,679 --> 00:36:00,639
two. I'm just like I'm like
this is this is like finally it's all

546
00:36:00,679 --> 00:36:01,960
coming together. I get to play
some hands. I actually get to get

547
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:05,679
involved, like you know, things
are working out for me. I felt

548
00:36:06,159 --> 00:36:07,800
I felt great. I felt in
control of the table. Like you know,

549
00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:10,360
you know, when you like start
playing hands, you start winning,

550
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:15,599
you feel like the table like knows
that you're the captain. Yeah, in

551
00:36:15,679 --> 00:36:19,480
a way, like not that I
was like, because there was a couple

552
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:22,800
of the players that were also getting
involved, but we had been staying out

553
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:23,760
of each other's way so far.
But but yeah, you know, and

554
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:29,519
like people kind of like they back
down to you in some spots, you

555
00:36:29,559 --> 00:36:31,360
know, and it might just be
like this guy's winning every hand, I'm

556
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:35,199
just not going to kind of mess
with them type of stuff. Speaking of

557
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:37,480
we get back. So I got
I got like two hundred and one thousand

558
00:36:37,559 --> 00:36:43,320
or something, coming back to fifteen
hundred three thousand, and I play a

559
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:45,239
hand against this guy, the guy
who doubled me up at the Ace King.

560
00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:49,480
When I had the sevens, I
opened in the low jack with the

561
00:36:49,559 --> 00:36:52,000
king deuce of diamonds. This tells
you how good I'm feeling, because I'm

562
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:53,320
now I'm opening the king deuce of
diamonds because I just don't care anymore.

563
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:58,480
No I care, But like we're
ramping up the aggression. He calls out

564
00:36:58,519 --> 00:37:01,559
of the big blind it comes even
four three with one diamond, the three

565
00:37:01,559 --> 00:37:05,800
of diamonds. He checks. I
checked back. The turn is the ace

566
00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:07,280
of diamonds, which is like the
best card for me in the world.

567
00:37:07,599 --> 00:37:12,239
I turn a ton of equity with
a flush draw, and not only is

568
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:15,280
it a flush draw, I have
the nut flush straw. I also turn

569
00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:16,639
a straight draw and I can also
represent the ace, so it's like the

570
00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:21,039
greatest card for me. He checks. I bet eight thousand. He check

571
00:37:21,159 --> 00:37:24,639
raises me to twenty thousand. So
I'm like, okay, like I'm calling

572
00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:30,639
I'm never folding whatever I call river
Jack of diamonds, just like the gin

573
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:32,119
card. I'm like, this is
let's go. I hope you have like

574
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,920
you know, I mean, I
hope he has like five six, Like

575
00:37:36,119 --> 00:37:37,360
that's the best hand for him to
have. You know, he flopped the

576
00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:42,400
straight I'm thinking maybe he's got some
sort of two pair as well. Whatever

577
00:37:43,039 --> 00:37:47,239
he leads for twenty two thousand and
he had on the river, he had

578
00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:52,840
about one hundred and thirty thousand,
hundred and thirty five thousand. Maybe there

579
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,800
are a lot of times in this
specific situation where I will just move all

580
00:37:55,880 --> 00:38:00,400
in a bit of like an overbet
in away. I thought about that for

581
00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:04,800
a while, and I decided that
I'm going to raise to a smaller amount

582
00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:07,880
than all in because I think that
players in the basic main event value their

583
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:10,639
tournament life so much, and I
want to be sure that I'm called here,

584
00:38:10,679 --> 00:38:15,199
so I want to try and find
some kind of what's like maximum value.

585
00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:21,679
So I sized it where I felt
like, if he was like kind

586
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:28,039
of um on the fence about calling, he could call and be fine losing

587
00:38:28,119 --> 00:38:30,840
and still feel healthy if that makes
sense to you. Ye, like he'd

588
00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:34,559
still have like, you know,
fifteen twenty big blinds and it wouldn't be

589
00:38:34,599 --> 00:38:36,800
the worst of it. So I
made he made it. He bet twenty

590
00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:39,400
two, I made seventy eight.
He'd snap called, So now I'm like,

591
00:38:39,519 --> 00:38:43,840
fuck kind of stuff. He had
pocket three, he flop bottom set,

592
00:38:44,199 --> 00:38:45,679
so I could have probably like yellow
at it all and got the call.

593
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:50,960
But obviously I don't know that he
has kind of yeah for him for

594
00:38:51,039 --> 00:38:52,599
sure. So yeah, so that
puts me over three hundred thousand. So

595
00:38:52,679 --> 00:38:54,960
now I have like three, three
or nine, and I think on that

596
00:38:55,079 --> 00:39:00,400
hand, there's another hand shortly thereafter
that where I'm in the big blind.

597
00:39:00,639 --> 00:39:04,960
It's a raise actually from that guy. That guy raises the guy next to

598
00:39:05,079 --> 00:39:08,199
him calls, I have pocket nines
in the big lines, and I just

599
00:39:08,599 --> 00:39:12,119
decided to three bet and I'm going
to get it in against the opener.

600
00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:15,000
The other guy might be a little
bit tricky if he back raises off to

601
00:39:15,159 --> 00:39:16,760
make a decision. They both end
up fulling instant. I'm moved to like

602
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,920
three twenty five. I'm like,
I'm like, holy crap, I have

603
00:39:20,079 --> 00:39:23,159
fucking I got one hundred and eight
big mines in the fucking main event.

604
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:27,559
Day three, I'm like, let's
go, Like, let's absolutely go.

605
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,519
So I feel amazing, I feel
super locked in. Everything's working out.

606
00:39:30,599 --> 00:39:34,760
I'm in control the situations like this
is like, this is what it's supposed

607
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:37,239
to be about. This is how
it's supposed to work out. I had

608
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:39,079
to deal with all the crap on
the first two days. Now I feel

609
00:39:39,119 --> 00:39:45,760
just absolutely great, awesome. Then
gentleman next to me, older man named

610
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:49,360
Gary. He's from Arkansas. He
offered me his hotel room here. That

611
00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:52,440
was a little bit weird, not
gonna lie it, but he also complimented

612
00:39:52,519 --> 00:39:54,239
me on my commentary, which was
very cool. Thank you very much,

613
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:58,840
Gary, Thanks Glary. I don't
like the way that this hand resulted.

614
00:39:59,119 --> 00:40:04,719
He opens under the gun. Was
this before the hand? When he said

615
00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:07,360
this stuff the hotel, all this
stuff was before the hand. Okay,

616
00:40:07,599 --> 00:40:10,800
so he opens under the gun to
seven k I look down next to act

617
00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:14,920
two kings. I'm like, oh
my gosh, this is great. I've

618
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:17,400
been pretty active, Like this is
perfect. Now. The tricky spot about

619
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:22,920
this situation is that he's under the
gun. I'm plus one, so we're

620
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:27,119
both super early so and he was
very tight. Yeah, okay, so

621
00:40:27,559 --> 00:40:30,719
his open is super strong, so
if I three bet him, it's going

622
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:32,760
to be extra strong. But I'm
like, you know what. One of

623
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:36,719
the things that I kind of like, I actually have a written down in

624
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:38,519
my notes. I have a few
rules that I go over every time before

625
00:40:38,519 --> 00:40:42,880
I play a poker tournament. One
of them is that it's like, sometimes

626
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:45,360
just play your value hands. Just
face up for value, and don't worry

627
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:50,280
about like randomizing and all this sort
of stuff, because it just doesn't matter

628
00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:52,920
a ton at the end of the
day. Like, yes, if I'm

629
00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:55,880
showing up to the Poker Girl studio
day in and day out for all of

630
00:40:55,920 --> 00:41:00,360
these PGT majors, yeah, then
I'm gonna need to do some different things,

631
00:41:00,559 --> 00:41:02,440
like I'm gonna need to call sometimes
in position. I'm gonna need to

632
00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:06,599
do different sizings, like all this
sort of stuff. This field against you

633
00:41:06,639 --> 00:41:09,679
know, more random players that you've
never played again with against before. It's

634
00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:14,639
also very early in the day,
so we don't have a ton of experience

635
00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:16,199
playing with each other on this day
yet. So I'm just like, whatever,

636
00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:19,239
it doesn't matter if this is face
up. This is face up.

637
00:41:19,519 --> 00:41:21,639
So I make he makes it seven
K, I make it eighteen K,

638
00:41:22,159 --> 00:41:24,159
folds back to him, he puts
his money in eight K. I'd beat

639
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:28,199
him into the pot. He's got
Jack's rivers a jacket. I'm just like,

640
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:30,679
fuck God, Like whatever, it
doesn't matter. I'd got up to

641
00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:35,039
three twenty after I like going through
the blinds once and then losing this pot.

642
00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:37,159
I'm on like two twenty five.
I'm like, whatever, I start

643
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:38,000
up with the eighty two, Like, I still got two twenty five.

644
00:41:38,039 --> 00:41:42,119
This is amazing, no big deal, just a small bump in the road.

645
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:44,840
Then there's a spot where it folds
to me on the button. I

646
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:46,760
have ace five of hearts. This
hand, I'll admit, is a mistake.

647
00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:51,800
I messed it up. I raised
the button big bund three bets.

648
00:41:52,559 --> 00:41:57,639
I opt to four bet, he
five bet jams, I fold. I

649
00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:00,920
should have just called in position.
We were we were deep enough that I

650
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:05,079
can just play ace five hearts in
position against him. That's fine. I

651
00:42:05,199 --> 00:42:08,039
don't need to four beet it in
my hand like if he's if he's I

652
00:42:08,079 --> 00:42:10,559
thought he was like a good player, which is why I thought he might

653
00:42:10,599 --> 00:42:14,800
be messy with me, and I
ultimately went with the four bets. I

654
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:17,760
should just call in position there,
play a pot in position against him.

655
00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:21,800
My hand is still pretty good,
has some value. You know, he

656
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:27,719
could be getting out of line.
I also know that, like I knew

657
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,719
when I four bet that he can
he has a stack to five bet jam.

658
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:32,119
I mean it's it's like that's a
good thing. I just didn't know

659
00:42:32,159 --> 00:42:35,519
if he would do that. I
mean, listen, he probably just had

660
00:42:35,599 --> 00:42:37,639
a value hand. I mean that's
normally what people do here. So so

661
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,159
yeah, so anyway, I had
I folded that hand, so whatever,

662
00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:44,280
So UM, a little bit of
a mistake there, but whatever, not

663
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:47,320
a big deal um for that specific
hand. But then I just kept like

664
00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:51,760
losing every hand that I played,
you know, opening up either getting three

665
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:57,159
bets um or you know, defending
from the blinds or not hitting flops,

666
00:42:57,199 --> 00:42:59,360
stuff like that, you know,
being played back at. So stuff just

667
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:00,599
started going the other way, and
it was just kind of just after that

668
00:43:00,679 --> 00:43:02,960
hand, it was like small pots, smallpots, smallpots. So I peaked

669
00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:07,000
at like three twenty five in this
level and I go into the break at

670
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:09,360
one hundred and eight thousand. I'm
just like, man, come on,

671
00:43:09,639 --> 00:43:13,119
Like I felt like I had it
and now I don't have it. But

672
00:43:13,599 --> 00:43:15,800
end of the day, I still
have more than what I started with.

673
00:43:15,920 --> 00:43:16,639
So it's like whatever, you know, I mean, you know, no

674
00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:20,480
big deal. I tried to get
six hundred, didn't work out, you

675
00:43:20,519 --> 00:43:22,320
know, and now we still got
more than what we started with. No

676
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:23,880
big deal. So we come back
to two K, four K, and

677
00:43:24,519 --> 00:43:28,480
I had gone through the blinds a
couple of times, you know, nothing

678
00:43:28,599 --> 00:43:30,679
big I have. Like I think
I had like eighty nine thousand or ninety

679
00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:37,239
thousand something like that, or no, I had more five hundred exactly.

680
00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:40,079
Because this I'm about to be all
in against the player and he has he

681
00:43:40,119 --> 00:43:44,880
had exactly ninety thousand. I remember
he opens from the hijack to eight thousand

682
00:43:45,039 --> 00:43:49,800
min rays. I'm in the small
blind and I move all in for you

683
00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:53,599
know, twenty four and a half
big blinds or whatever big blindfolds. This

684
00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:57,880
was the guy that when I had
the Queen Jack of Clubs and I made

685
00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:00,920
that flush, he called it off
against me. So he's like thinking and

686
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:04,360
he's like when I had the Queen
Jack clubs, he was talking out loud

687
00:44:04,639 --> 00:44:07,599
on the riverbed, like thinking about
calling me, and he was saying,

688
00:44:07,639 --> 00:44:08,679
like, you know, what types
of sixes do you have? He wasn't

689
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:12,519
talking to me, he was just
talking out loud. Yeah. Here he

690
00:44:12,639 --> 00:44:14,400
was doing the same thing. He
started talking all He's like, oh,

691
00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:15,840
you could have you know, a's
five, this and that, like whatever.

692
00:44:16,159 --> 00:44:19,719
Then he calls he's got King Queen
off. I'm like, okay,

693
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:22,159
whatever, it's got a hold,
no big deal. I have the eight

694
00:44:22,199 --> 00:44:22,840
of Spades in my hand. I
have the eight of spades, eight a

695
00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:27,719
hearts. It comes King of Spades, eight of clubs, deuce of Spades.

696
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:32,199
I don't win the hand. I'm
just like because it comes spade spade

697
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:37,239
and I just lose to a flush, and I'm just like really like,

698
00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:39,639
really this is not the way,
Like this is what's gonna like, you

699
00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:44,840
know, so I have eighty five
hundred left at the pay off is ninety

700
00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:46,440
CAI have eighty five hundred left.
Two hands later, I get out of

701
00:44:46,559 --> 00:44:51,480
somebody or Brett Apter raises from the
low jack seed. He makes it a

702
00:44:51,599 --> 00:44:53,920
k I go all in for eighty
five hundred, Button re raises to twenty

703
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:58,320
six k Apter gets out of the
way. I have king jack off versus

704
00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:04,679
the other guy's ace seven of clubs
comes like eight seven five with two clubs.

705
00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:07,320
So I'm just like, you know, with the worst flop universe.

706
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:08,559
I mean, I still have two
overs, but I can't. I can't

707
00:45:08,639 --> 00:45:12,559
hit any of them that are clubs. Now bricks out and I'm out of

708
00:45:12,559 --> 00:45:15,920
the tournament. So yeah, So
that was my day. So it was

709
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:17,480
just it sucked. I mean it
was brutal. I played two and a

710
00:45:17,519 --> 00:45:22,840
half days of poker in this tournament. I had to practice the most insane

711
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:28,159
patients ever for both of the two
days before this one. Today off to

712
00:45:28,199 --> 00:45:31,239
an amazing start, like things are
going so well, Like I'm just like,

713
00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:34,599
this is this is amazing, this
is how it's going to be in

714
00:45:34,639 --> 00:45:37,920
these they ripped it all from me. Yeah. In the words of our

715
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:42,039
friend Jeff Platt, I'll just go
fuck myself now because that's what happened today.

716
00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:45,280
It was unbelievable. I'm like a
once I lost with those Kings.

717
00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:49,239
It was just downhill. So it's
just brutal, you know, you just

718
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:52,719
play like just brutal. It's brutal, it really is. So yeah,

719
00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:57,440
I had fun today, but overall
overall, you know, I thought I

720
00:45:57,519 --> 00:46:00,719
played super well throughout the entire turn. The first two days were really a

721
00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:07,559
test of just patience. If you
guys heard yesterday's podcast episode when I talked

722
00:46:07,559 --> 00:46:09,880
to Cliff Josephye after play, you
know, I asked him about like,

723
00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:13,920
what's like the best tip for this
tournament or where I can't remember how I

724
00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:16,559
phrases exactly, but he said,
it's patience. And over the years,

725
00:46:17,079 --> 00:46:21,719
I know that it's patients. Like
it's patients that you see so many times.

726
00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:24,079
These people come into this tournament and
they're very good players, but they

727
00:46:24,199 --> 00:46:27,960
try and play every hand, you
know, I mean, listen, Nick

728
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:30,559
Griegy tries to play every hand.
Yes, okay, but sometimes it worked

729
00:46:30,599 --> 00:46:34,000
out. Sometimes it doesn't right,
you know, live by the door or

730
00:46:34,159 --> 00:46:37,280
die by the sword type of thing. But you can be very patient and

731
00:46:37,400 --> 00:46:42,360
I was very patient on the first
two days, and I really battled and

732
00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:46,599
I fought hard. In both of
those days. I had twenty five thousand

733
00:46:46,679 --> 00:46:50,800
with thirty minutes to go in the
day, and I bagged a lot.

734
00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:52,880
I bagged more than starting on the
first day. I mean not a lot,

735
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:55,480
but a lot more than I had. I had bagged more than starting

736
00:46:55,519 --> 00:46:58,800
on the first day, and I
bagged eighty two thousand on the second day.

737
00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:01,599
So I felt really good. So
I felt like the way that today

738
00:47:01,719 --> 00:47:07,159
started, it was like everything's turning
like this is like, yes, okay,

739
00:47:07,239 --> 00:47:08,599
now I'm gonna hit my rush.
The heat's coming, Like, let's

740
00:47:08,639 --> 00:47:12,159
go. The heat has happened,
Like I'm gonna, like, you know,

741
00:47:12,199 --> 00:47:14,719
I'm gonna go into dinner break with
a million. This is gonna be

742
00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:17,079
amazing. I can't wait. But
you know, things just slid the other

743
00:47:17,159 --> 00:47:21,639
way. But that's the game.
The game is the game. Um,

744
00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:25,719
as Monoir has always said to me, my good friend Monoir, he said,

745
00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:29,559
um, the game will always humble
you. It just always will.

746
00:47:29,920 --> 00:47:31,159
That's what it does. Poker is
a sick game that we play, and

747
00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:35,000
sometimes it doesn't work out from you
and we'll just get them next to you.

748
00:47:35,559 --> 00:47:37,760
That's right, that's right. You
didn't want twelve one point one million

749
00:47:37,800 --> 00:47:42,239
Fest prize. You want the twelve
point two million Fest prize next. Yeah,

750
00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:44,599
great, whatever, No, But
I mean, overall, looking back

751
00:47:44,639 --> 00:47:46,480
on it, I think I'm happy. You know, obviously you're you're a

752
00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:52,679
you know, frustrator enough set with
um how it ends, because you feel

753
00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:54,519
like you're really started to gain momentum
and then it just all goes away.

754
00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:59,760
Yeah, obviously, you know,
all of that is heightened by the fact

755
00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:02,519
that this is the greatest tournament in
the world. So like having that rush

756
00:48:02,639 --> 00:48:07,239
happened today and then having it just
taken away from me as soon as it

757
00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:10,639
was given to you. It hurts. It's painful, Like it's not I'm

758
00:48:10,679 --> 00:48:15,039
not gonna not say that it's not
you know, like I know, like

759
00:48:15,519 --> 00:48:16,960
you know a lot of people are
like, you know, it's it's whatever.

760
00:48:17,039 --> 00:48:20,159
It's another tournament, and you get
used to it whatever. Like I

761
00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:22,199
don't know if I would I'll ever
get used to it in this specific tournament.

762
00:48:22,559 --> 00:48:25,079
That said, in the moment,
you know, you just play right,

763
00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:29,519
felt really good. Like both days
just like if I bust, I

764
00:48:29,599 --> 00:48:31,239
bust, you know, like things
aren't going to affect me. I just

765
00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:35,280
have to play my game and do
whatever. Like if like when I forbat

766
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:37,079
jam with those sevens, if he
fucking just snaps me off with two kings

767
00:48:37,159 --> 00:48:40,559
here, so be it. I
gotta go with my gut here and do

768
00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:44,920
do what I want I think I
can do. I'm excited to play more

769
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:49,119
poker. I'm excited to do more
comments anything else you're gonna play this world.

770
00:48:49,159 --> 00:48:52,519
So it's funny. I saw,
if you remember the pre one of

771
00:48:52,559 --> 00:48:54,639
the PREWSP shows, Ryan Brown,
who I said to look out for.

772
00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:59,159
Who I don't know how he bagged. I don't know if he's on the

773
00:48:59,239 --> 00:49:02,039
list anywhere. But he had a
ton of chips. When I walked by

774
00:49:02,119 --> 00:49:06,800
him, he said he's had a
shit summer. But I said, listen,

775
00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:09,119
this is the one you get,
even this is the one, if

776
00:49:09,159 --> 00:49:12,679
there was one, this is it. Okay, this is the one you

777
00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:14,840
want. So he has a ton
of chips, and he asked me,

778
00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:16,039
he said, you know, are
you gonna you're gonna play anymore? I

779
00:49:16,079 --> 00:49:21,280
said, man, I said,
I can't fathom like grinding the WSP main

780
00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:25,840
event busting and then like hopping in
like seven seven. I just can't do

781
00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:30,960
it. Like I just can't you
know, nothing against the people that do

782
00:49:30,119 --> 00:49:34,239
that, Like you're just I guess
better than me. Like to me,

783
00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:37,599
this is like it's the finale in
a way. Also, like we talk

784
00:49:37,679 --> 00:49:40,559
about it with Work, it used
to be like work with the main event

785
00:49:40,639 --> 00:49:45,199
was the finale, and it was
like it was Now it's you have all

786
00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:46,440
these side events and stuff going on
to In a way, it's like,

787
00:49:47,119 --> 00:49:51,599
wait, I have to like cover
more things when even though the main event

788
00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:53,360
is like it should only be the
main event, right, you know,

789
00:49:53,519 --> 00:49:57,239
Like I mean I get it from
a business perspective and all that sort of

790
00:49:57,280 --> 00:49:59,920
stuff, having all the post lums
and whatnot, Like I totally get it,

791
00:50:00,159 --> 00:50:01,960
but I'm just saying mentally, you're
like, wait, there's this other

792
00:50:02,039 --> 00:50:05,800
stuff, you know, Like I
just you know, for me, it's

793
00:50:05,840 --> 00:50:08,519
like you you build up to all
this stuff in the summer um, at

794
00:50:08,599 --> 00:50:13,199
least for me playing wise, you
know, you play some preliminary Bracelet events

795
00:50:13,199 --> 00:50:15,280
blah blah blah, and then you
know it culminates with playing the worst event

796
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:17,559
and you know, if it works
out or if it doesn't work out,

797
00:50:17,679 --> 00:50:22,840
then that's it for my summer.
You know, don't play for a month

798
00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:24,519
or so you know, and then
come back. We'll be back on the

799
00:50:24,559 --> 00:50:29,079
South Point nightly. We will be
back in the South Point nightly. But

800
00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:31,199
um, it's gonna take a little
bit while, probably not till like September

801
00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:35,079
or something. Wow, that's so
far away. I have another kid on

802
00:50:35,159 --> 00:50:37,000
the way. Okay, I'm not
gonna be How do you get out of

803
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:38,079
the house? How do you that? This is how you get away from

804
00:50:38,079 --> 00:50:43,800
the dirty This is how you get
away from the rigby dirty divers, dirty

805
00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:52,519
divers. Speaking of other things that
we have to talk about. Even though

806
00:50:52,519 --> 00:50:58,280
the event is still going on,
pot limit, Omaha bounty, is it

807
00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:00,119
still going Yeah, on a head
up break right now, they're on a

808
00:51:00,199 --> 00:51:04,480
heads up break. We're like the
only people in the room other than the

809
00:51:04,519 --> 00:51:07,280
French media across from us, and
you know, a couple of tournament staff.

810
00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:10,800
The chair all these chairs are stacked
on top of each other so they

811
00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:15,440
can vacuum the area and they're on
a heads up break over there. So

812
00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:17,719
there are two players remaining from the
field of one thousand, two hundred and

813
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:23,239
fourteen. The two players are Thomas
Skaggs and David who they're playing for one

814
00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:28,960
hundred and seventy one thousand, seven
hundred and forty two dollars. Some notable

815
00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:32,039
eliminations. You had Noah Schwartz busting
in eighth place. You had Jeff Madson

816
00:51:32,239 --> 00:51:37,360
finishing in twelfth. I think before
you had I think Nigrani finished with thirty

817
00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:43,920
first. I was sixteen seventeen,
So you know a few names, you

818
00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:46,519
know, firing away and making some
deep runs in this ultimately falling short.

819
00:51:46,599 --> 00:51:52,480
But right now Thomas Skaggs versus David
Who, and we'll we'll get back to

820
00:51:52,559 --> 00:51:55,079
talking about the winner of this one
on the next episode once they wrap up,

821
00:51:55,079 --> 00:52:00,159
and we're going to continue on here
with a huge field in the seven

822
00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:06,079
hundred and seventy seven dollars Lucky sevens
noleman hold them. This one has that

823
00:52:06,480 --> 00:52:09,760
seven hundred and seventy seven thousand,
seven hundred and seventy seven dollars first place

824
00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:14,760
prize. I like feel like I'm
gonna mess that up a million times on

825
00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:19,480
say that. I think we also
but today that people were saying that because

826
00:52:19,599 --> 00:52:22,480
so there was when the main event
came back today, Um, I was

827
00:52:22,519 --> 00:52:24,760
in the horseshoe. What's this from
the end? The Events Center they think

828
00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:30,039
to change these Events Center Grand Ballroom
Paris, So Grand ball Room and the

829
00:52:30,119 --> 00:52:35,000
event center on the horseshoe side were
full, and they had some tables over

830
00:52:35,119 --> 00:52:40,079
in Paris. One dty one tables. Yeah, one hundred forty one tables.

831
00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:45,960
No way, no way, it
was not one hundred forty Paris.

832
00:52:45,599 --> 00:52:49,679
Yes, I do it sided at
a table one and the last table we've

833
00:52:49,679 --> 00:52:52,559
been played was one forty one.
No, what was a forty one?

834
00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:58,239
No, there's no way one hundred
and forty one tables? What do you

835
00:52:58,280 --> 00:53:00,039
what do you want want to say? You think I'm I'm lying to Maybe

836
00:53:00,159 --> 00:53:04,840
maybe I'm just insane? Paris table
one. That seems like all the way

837
00:53:05,039 --> 00:53:09,840
down to Paris table one, I
lied one forty four. Okay, so

838
00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:15,559
I was right, I mean I
was right. You're lucky you didn't bet

839
00:53:15,559 --> 00:53:16,840
on it. What do you mean
you will right that it wasn't one forty

840
00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:21,320
one. I can't believe there was
that many tables over Yes, I thought

841
00:53:21,320 --> 00:53:22,519
there was a good amount of tables, but I didn't think it was that

842
00:53:23,079 --> 00:53:25,840
it was a lot. Well,
okay, Well, anyway, the players

843
00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:29,920
that were over there and then came
over here, you know, all they

844
00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:32,159
were talking about was how big this
line was for the biggest line of the

845
00:53:32,199 --> 00:53:37,199
sum of It town for registration to
get into this final flight of the Lucky

846
00:53:37,480 --> 00:53:42,920
Sevens tournaments UM. Day one A
of that tournament had fourteen hundred and seventy

847
00:53:43,039 --> 00:53:45,880
entries. Day one B had two
thousand, three hundred and eighty six,

848
00:53:45,239 --> 00:53:49,599
and then today had three thousand,
four hundred and forty four, which doesn't

849
00:53:50,079 --> 00:53:52,519
seem that crazy if they didn't let
people in for a while, so that's

850
00:53:52,519 --> 00:53:57,719
probably delay it too. They delayed
it, they didn't let anyone register,

851
00:53:57,840 --> 00:54:02,639
all seat sit down. It's just
similar event. They need a big venue.

852
00:54:02,679 --> 00:54:05,920
I'm I'm not joking, like,
yeah, I mean, that's like

853
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:08,039
one of those good problems to have. But like you got to solve the

854
00:54:08,079 --> 00:54:14,960
problem because I mean it's not also
just venue size, it's it would definitely

855
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:19,400
a dealer availability. Yeah, it
didn't have enough. You might be able

856
00:54:19,440 --> 00:54:22,440
to, I don't know if solve
is the right word, maybe alleviate some

857
00:54:22,599 --> 00:54:25,599
of the pains with you're you're gonna
have to just look at the schedule and

858
00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:29,480
be like, okay, like we
can't have this going on this day.

859
00:54:29,559 --> 00:54:30,719
You know, like you're really gonna
need to space things out a little bit

860
00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:35,119
more which I'm you know, I'm
guessing that that's like probably one of the

861
00:54:35,159 --> 00:54:37,000
things on the top of the mind. Um, because there were you know,

862
00:54:37,119 --> 00:54:40,360
for the mini main event when this
happened. You know, Wsity officials

863
00:54:40,400 --> 00:54:45,000
were literally walking through the line saying
like, hey, we're terribly sorry.

864
00:54:45,559 --> 00:54:46,880
You know, we're not gonna be
able to seach you, so you can

865
00:54:47,000 --> 00:54:51,400
wait in the line and try to
luck out or you know, I'm sorry,

866
00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:53,519
but you can just continue on with
your day because you're not going to

867
00:54:53,559 --> 00:54:58,360
get a seat. Um. And
I would I would guess that that's not

868
00:54:58,920 --> 00:55:00,559
a fun conversation you want to be
having. You don't want to be walking

869
00:55:00,559 --> 00:55:02,920
through the line saying like, hey, we can't seach you. Also,

870
00:55:04,039 --> 00:55:06,639
that's taking money out of your pocket
as the business. So I don't know

871
00:55:06,679 --> 00:55:07,920
if they can find a bigger venue. I don't know if they can like

872
00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:12,199
knock out one of these walls.
And I don't think they're gonna move venues

873
00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:15,960
anytime soon. But there's definitely ways
to potentially add some tables, especially here

874
00:55:16,119 --> 00:55:21,360
in the events center. Well I
don't know about that. I mean a

875
00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:24,360
lot of the tables and like the
way that they're laid out. Ultimately comes

876
00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:28,679
down to the fire marshal. Yes, that is true, but also you

877
00:55:28,760 --> 00:55:34,239
know, it's production. If you've
been to these these venues, you'll be

878
00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:36,760
like, oh, well there's this
space here, we can fit four tables,

879
00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:37,599
or we can do this, and
then they'll be like, yeah,

880
00:55:37,639 --> 00:55:39,960
but the fire marshal, you can't
do that. You literally can't do that.

881
00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:44,960
It's illegal, which next to us
to some you know, emergency excess,

882
00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:46,800
so we can't block those with tables, you know. So yeah,

883
00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:50,280
you're one hundred center right there.
I mean, it's just it's it's tricky.

884
00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:55,760
I mean, it's obviously a good
thing that the attendance is so large.

885
00:55:55,880 --> 00:55:59,519
Yeah, you know that people want
to come out and play these events

886
00:55:59,519 --> 00:56:04,000
and they're so big, you know, but yeah, at some point,

887
00:56:04,079 --> 00:56:06,519
like you're going to have capacity issues. You know, we have the same

888
00:56:06,559 --> 00:56:08,280
thing in the studio at times.
You know, it's great to hit the

889
00:56:08,320 --> 00:56:12,880
new capacity, but then you're like, um, well now we got to

890
00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:15,199
figure out how to solve the capacity
problem. But there's a simple solution here.

891
00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:19,360
What's up? Twelve handed? Put
him on the root, twelve handed,

892
00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:22,559
no limit, hold him poka tonaments
of the w Is there a basement

893
00:56:22,599 --> 00:56:23,920
here? Is there a Bosio's.
Is there a bowling alley that we can

894
00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:30,960
build? Is just a tent?
We used to have Fieri's Flavor Town,

895
00:56:30,039 --> 00:56:34,000
Bro, it's so hot outside.
We're not the tent outside, so you

896
00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:38,440
have tents out there instead. It's
Fieri's. I'm in Fieris Flavor toown,

897
00:56:40,719 --> 00:56:49,119
Flavor Toown three. I would love
to play at Guy Fieri's Flavortown, Baby,

898
00:56:49,159 --> 00:56:51,000
I'm in. I mean, I
don't know what you do. I

899
00:56:51,079 --> 00:56:52,280
mean, it's I think it's simple. I think you maybe have to use

900
00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:55,519
the poker room. You know,
you may have to clear some space out

901
00:56:55,599 --> 00:56:58,880
in front of the poker room,
like when we played that Sucker event.

902
00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:00,920
But even if they did that,
yeah, like I said, we're still

903
00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:07,719
What's so hard about that is that
that area is, you know, in

904
00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:09,519
the main casino area, and you
have to walk through it to go from

905
00:57:09,559 --> 00:57:14,960
the parish to the horseshoes side or
vice versa. That area of like the

906
00:57:15,039 --> 00:57:16,519
casino tables, because if they put
poker tables there, they to take out

907
00:57:16,559 --> 00:57:22,239
casino tables. That place is bumping
every ninth. It's packed out there like

908
00:57:23,119 --> 00:57:27,280
it's a package. There's people playing
roulette, craps, whatever, the hell

909
00:57:27,519 --> 00:57:30,000
and it's jam packed. I mean, people are having a blast. So

910
00:57:30,039 --> 00:57:32,639
I'm like, so good luck trying
to sell some casino executives on that for

911
00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:37,239
some poker tables. And you remember
the very first time you met Ram Komori

912
00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:43,760
came here, it was like November
of twenty twenty one, and we all

913
00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:45,719
went to the poker room and we
went up those escalators at the top because

914
00:57:45,719 --> 00:57:49,079
that's where we thought that this was
going to be. It was like one

915
00:57:49,119 --> 00:57:52,480
of those theaters that's where they actually
I think ran one of the circuit events

916
00:57:52,519 --> 00:57:55,159
one year here. Maybe that is
available. I don't know how busy that

917
00:57:55,360 --> 00:57:59,920
some of those theaters are during the
summer, but that could potentially be as

918
00:58:00,039 --> 00:58:01,840
But like, hey, by the
way, the Millionaire Maker is in the

919
00:58:02,760 --> 00:58:06,639
I know it's not called the Jubilee
Theater, but whatever theater that is,

920
00:58:07,199 --> 00:58:08,039
you know, the stuff like that. I don't know if those kind of

921
00:58:08,079 --> 00:58:12,760
options, yeah, it's tricky.
Um, it's gonna be something they need

922
00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:17,159
to solve for sure. But anyway, overall, seventy three hundred entries you

923
00:58:17,239 --> 00:58:22,639
know, give or take, in
the seven seven seven events, um,

924
00:58:22,679 --> 00:58:28,039
there's about three hundred three twenty five
remaining who's got some stacks on that one.

925
00:58:28,079 --> 00:58:31,280
Do we know anyone? Uh,
Sean Daniels PGT player, he's thirteen

926
00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:37,559
ships. Alex Livingston Sean Daniels used
to play so he used when I used

927
00:58:37,599 --> 00:58:39,440
to go to GVR, yeah and
play one, two, one, three

928
00:58:39,519 --> 00:58:44,239
and whatever. He used to always
be in this like it wasn't a private

929
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:45,320
game, but it kind of was
a private game, like in the back

930
00:58:45,519 --> 00:58:50,920
playing against this guy known as mwahaha
because because of his laugh and like they

931
00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:53,239
would be playing heads up three handed, four handed, like super shorthanded,

932
00:58:53,719 --> 00:58:55,880
just with like you know, I
don't know if they're playing five, ten,

933
00:58:55,960 --> 00:58:59,159
ten, twenty five whatever, but
he would always be battling in that

934
00:58:59,239 --> 00:59:00,239
game. I think one day he
had like, you know, thirty kne

935
00:59:00,280 --> 00:59:02,599
front of him, like just crazy
shit, something you would never see at

936
00:59:02,639 --> 00:59:07,039
Greenvilley Ranch. But that's what happened
there. But anyway, some players with

937
00:59:07,199 --> 00:59:13,280
chips we have I mentioned Alex Livingston
tenth in chips A silent Sneaky Player of

938
00:59:13,360 --> 00:59:19,559
the Year candidate Michael Rodriguez. Matigus
hasn't won yet, not yet. He's

939
00:59:19,559 --> 00:59:22,320
still gotta He's still got to sweat
it out. But Michael Rodriguez he has

940
00:59:22,360 --> 00:59:28,760
one point four million and the two
thousand and seven world champion, and Jerry

941
00:59:29,079 --> 00:59:32,679
Yang himself sixty first and chips with
one point three five million. Okay,

942
00:59:34,039 --> 00:59:37,199
so it's gonna be moving day on
day two on Monday, playing down to

943
00:59:37,719 --> 00:59:44,280
probably the final table where the winner
will take home seven hundred and seventy seven

944
00:59:44,320 --> 00:59:49,960
thousand and seven hundred seventy seven dollars
seventy seven cents as well. John John

945
00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:54,679
Reridden bags some chips. It's gonna
be a fun one to watch that.

946
00:59:54,760 --> 00:59:58,960
I think we also mentioned yesterday that
this was played seven handed. I don't

947
00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:02,920
believe it actually is. I think
we just assume that. No, it

948
01:00:04,119 --> 01:00:07,199
is played seven handed for sure?
Are you sure someone told me we were

949
01:00:07,239 --> 01:00:09,519
wrong. I have not been over
there and I look just looked at the

950
01:00:09,559 --> 01:00:15,559
struct shot and there is nothing seven
handed right there. Maybe they'll play maybe

951
01:00:15,639 --> 01:00:19,880
today, Yeah, just like today
event is played nine handeds. You might

952
01:00:19,960 --> 01:00:22,760
have to go ten handed if capacity, you know, like in get in

953
01:00:22,800 --> 01:00:24,239
the clossus or the gladdiear or whatever
like, you know, you have to

954
01:00:24,320 --> 01:00:27,840
do that if you want to see
people. Um, but yeah, no,

955
01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:30,880
but this is a yeah, okay, yeah, exactly, come on.

956
01:00:31,239 --> 01:00:34,920

01:00:37,519 --> 01:00:43,440

966
01:01:10,079 --> 01:01:13,719
horse. Steve zach A, Right, you can go. I am hopefully

967
01:01:13,840 --> 01:01:17,199
the bubble bust before the deep sex
thoughts. There is no shot I'm playing

968
01:01:17,559 --> 01:01:22,400
to cash that event. It's driving
me crazy. You need to just cash

969
01:01:22,519 --> 01:01:25,760
in event? Yeah? Yeah,
sorry, rub it in why night.

970
01:01:27,440 --> 01:01:29,920
I'm with it, right there with
you, man, I am right there

971
01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:32,760
with you. All right. We're
gonna kick it away from the WSFP and

972
01:01:32,800 --> 01:01:38,920
head over and checking on this WPT
everyone for one Drop event. So this

973
01:01:39,119 --> 01:01:44,559
is their their summer events. Over
at the win. Uh, ten thousand,

974
01:01:44,639 --> 01:01:49,719
five hundred dollar buying ten million dollars
guaranteed. It's so it's funny because

975
01:01:50,119 --> 01:01:53,119
ten million, that sounds so big. And then you're like, but an

976
01:01:53,119 --> 01:01:55,920
event had ninety three million. Yeah, it's like, you know, it's

977
01:01:55,960 --> 01:02:00,800
so crazy. Anyway, So this
this event has a has a charity aspect

978
01:02:00,880 --> 01:02:04,440
to it. Um. So of
that ten thousand, five hundred dollars buying,

979
01:02:04,519 --> 01:02:07,559
ninety seven hundred dollars goes into the
prize pool, two hundred dollars goes

980
01:02:07,559 --> 01:02:09,320
to charity. Six hundred dollars is
for you know, the rake and the

981
01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:13,760
fees and all that sort of stuff. Day one A had two hundred and

982
01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:17,480
sixty five entries. There are three
starting flights, I believe, and you

983
01:02:17,599 --> 01:02:22,599
can re enter once per flight.
Okay, so six total entries if you

984
01:02:22,719 --> 01:02:27,440
want to do that, eighty five
players. I think that's right, Um,

985
01:02:27,639 --> 01:02:30,800
eighty five players. And look who's
leading the way Stephen's song. He's

986
01:02:30,840 --> 01:02:34,719
at the wrong venue. He's at
the wrong venue. Do we get twenty

987
01:02:34,760 --> 01:02:37,480
five? I think we need to
call up Daniel and ask if we can

988
01:02:37,760 --> 01:02:40,599
make a you know, an appeal
to the is. And I'm honestly,

989
01:02:40,920 --> 01:02:45,159
you know, go in a bowlot
to money, Stephen and come back on

990
01:02:45,280 --> 01:02:46,800
over here and blast some more stuff. That's what I want you to do.

991
01:02:47,079 --> 01:02:51,559
So yeah, So it looks like
Stephen's song is the chip leader four

992
01:02:51,639 --> 01:02:54,039
hundred. He's got a massive chip
lead. He's if he wins, is

993
01:02:54,079 --> 01:02:59,559
he misses the fifty four hundreds,
he has four hundred six thousand, five

994
01:02:59,639 --> 01:03:02,199
hundred and chips, and the next
closest is Alex Kolev with three hundred and

995
01:03:02,199 --> 01:03:07,960
six thousand. Next crushing Ryan Laplant
bagged two hundred and seventy one thousand,

996
01:03:07,079 --> 01:03:10,239
Brian Altman two hundred and twenty nine
thousand and five hundred. I feel like

997
01:03:10,280 --> 01:03:15,360
I haven't seen Brian Altman all summer. Where has he been? Masashi Oya

998
01:03:15,639 --> 01:03:20,639
Oya who I'm pretty sure it was
in the main event today. He was

999
01:03:20,800 --> 01:03:22,880
He was supposed to be on the
feature table and then busted before he got

1000
01:03:22,960 --> 01:03:28,599
up there. Ethan Rampageo two hundred
and two thousand, Darren Elias, that's

1001
01:03:28,599 --> 01:03:32,760
pretty much mister wpt right there,
one hundred ninety five thousand, David Peretti's

1002
01:03:32,760 --> 01:03:37,360
one hundred and fifty thousand. Kevin
Rabbutschow one hundred and sixty eight thousand,

1003
01:03:37,480 --> 01:03:42,519
five hundred. Jim Collifie hundred forty
thousand, just kind of going through these

1004
01:03:42,559 --> 01:03:45,480
lists. Johan Gilbert one hundred and
twelve thousand, five hundred. How many

1005
01:03:45,519 --> 01:03:47,400
chips they start with in this thing? They had to start with a lot.

1006
01:03:47,519 --> 01:03:52,920
David Peters seventy four thousand, John
Reardon seventy two thousand. So John

1007
01:03:52,000 --> 01:03:55,960
Reardon has a bag in the seven
seven seven that'll come back tomorrow. But

1008
01:03:57,480 --> 01:04:00,599
because he bagged this tournament on day
one A, he has a days off

1009
01:04:00,599 --> 01:04:03,440
in it, so it comes back
much later. That is King John Reard

1010
01:04:03,480 --> 01:04:08,840
and the third everyone bow down to
the King. Fad Or Holtz bagging up

1011
01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:12,679
chips. Also Chris Claude, nicky, wasn't he in the main? Was

1012
01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:15,280
it yesterday? Was it today?
I can't remember? You know what sucks

1013
01:04:15,360 --> 01:04:18,920
about? But he's he bagged up
chips to reorder and bagging miss is that

1014
01:04:19,199 --> 01:04:25,360
he may have to miss the three
k PLO six max whatever. I don't

1015
01:04:25,360 --> 01:04:27,840
care. I root for my guys. They can win money wherever they want,

1016
01:04:27,920 --> 01:04:30,280
that's all. Um. So yeah, like we said, two more

1017
01:04:30,320 --> 01:04:33,440
starting flights in that one, um, I think two eighty five entries on

1018
01:04:33,559 --> 01:04:36,960
day one sounds good in terms of
like hitting that ten million dollar guarantee.

1019
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:40,679
I think it's about right on target
to what they would have hoped for.

1020
01:04:41,039 --> 01:04:43,559
Well, you were you were saying, we were talking, and we were

1021
01:04:43,599 --> 01:04:46,920
talking over in the in the other
room, the Grand ball Room. Is

1022
01:04:46,920 --> 01:04:50,440
that what it's called. I don't
know the names of these rooms, but

1023
01:04:50,599 --> 01:04:56,320
how the WPT's probably rooting for the
WSP main event money bubbles to burst to

1024
01:04:56,440 --> 01:05:00,400
yea, because now if you get
people the bus, obviously once the money

1025
01:05:00,440 --> 01:05:03,239
bubble burst, people start flying out, you know, all everyone's going everywhere.

1026
01:05:03,280 --> 01:05:06,679
Well maybe you know, some of
these people of cash for fifteen thousand,

1027
01:05:06,719 --> 01:05:09,400
they head on over to the wind, they fire, you know,

1028
01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:13,079
a bullet or two over there exactly. Well, now they're stuck in this

1029
01:05:13,199 --> 01:05:15,679
tournament over here for another, you
know, at least a couple hours of

1030
01:05:15,760 --> 01:05:19,000
the day, and then it's like
if you come over here tomorrow and you

1031
01:05:19,159 --> 01:05:21,800
bust, you really want to go
play another tournament? You just busted the

1032
01:05:21,960 --> 01:05:26,440
w to me inventing all that sort
of stuff. So so I'm sure WPD

1033
01:05:26,599 --> 01:05:29,440
is rooting for the bubble the burst
today, but it didn't, so I'm

1034
01:05:29,480 --> 01:05:31,000
not that I necessarily think that's really
going to do anything for the numbers,

1035
01:05:31,079 --> 01:05:34,480
but you know, yeah, it's
worth throwing it out there. That's it.

1040
01:05:53,159 --> 01:05:55,440
come talk with us in the chat, all that good stuff. I'm not

1041
01:05:55,519 --> 01:05:58,280
sure how much commentary Remco and I
are going to be doing from here on

1042
01:05:58,360 --> 01:06:00,239
out, so I'm right to a
couple like our previews here and there,

1043
01:06:00,320 --> 01:06:05,400
but probably not too much stuff.
But I do just want to say that

1044
01:06:05,519 --> 01:06:11,119
everyone that tuned into the commentaryyone that
had nice words to say, very much

1045
01:06:11,119 --> 01:06:15,000
appreciate it. I absolutely love doing
commentary. I definitely think that I need

1046
01:06:15,039 --> 01:06:17,639
to get a little bit better at
it, but I'm happy with like my

1047
01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:21,679
improvement so far, and I can't
wait to do a whole heck of it,

1048
01:06:23,480 --> 01:06:27,119
a whole heck more of it,
you know, going forward in the

1049
01:06:27,199 --> 01:06:30,360
future. But that's going to do
it for us on this podcast. My
