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

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
