to check up on from my play today in the glad years of poker,
but we'll touch on some of that later on Community Cards. This is where
rich Ryan, producer Richard is going to in search the intro and then we'll
talk about the community guards. Attention. Attention, morning, good afternoon,
and good evening to the poker radio audience near and far. It is now
time for a brand spanking, spiffy and new shout out to some of our
most loyal listeners who likely got a bit too lucky on the way to the
spotlight. You're listening to the number one poker show in the land, and
it's time for a new edition of the Poker Go podcast Community Cards. Paul
Burman, fellow Australian, made his trip back from Australia. I haven't seen
Paul Burman forever We gave him a podcast and he went played the two hundred
fifty Deep Snack and finished eighty sixth place, locked up a cash. What
a hero here. And I also want to give a double shout out to
Paul. He gave me a plethora of Australian snacks Plethora. It's one of
my favorite wits. Plethora. Well, I pronounce it wow, Australian snacks,
Caramelo koalas Kara Meller, what fred or frogs? This is like another
language. He said. There with my son Caleb. I've eaten half of
them, but Caleb does love them. So I wanted that's a double shout
out Paul. Paul, where's my freaking candy? Okay, like, come
on, man, if there's something left out of but when I go home
after my car is fixed, I'll bring you something, I promise. Let's
go. And the second shout out he's still in the ten Kleman hold him,
Lewis Hillman. He came over to us on the rail as we were
walking past and he said, family pot we came. It gets up out
of a ten K championship event, basically on the bubble. It just comes
over to the rail and is like, family pot, can I get two
hats because you're both here. We gave him one hat. Actually, we
both tried to give him a hat because you went back there running. So
here's what happened. I'll tell what happened because I have a community card shout
out as well. You wrote those two down, Paul Burman and Lewis Um.
I have Alex who stopped me on my way back from dinner break in
the glad years of poker. So I went when Lewis found us, we
didn't I didn't have a hat with me. You know, we gotta start
carrying the hats around and I always mean too, but I was playing today,
so I didn't have it with me. Anyway. I'm like, yeah,
we'll get you a hat. So I come all the way back over
here, and I'm gonna go back over there to start playing after dinner.
So I got the hat with me. I go over the ten k Limenholmes
on dinner, so I'm like, what the hell it's got forty like four
minutes offt I'm like, well, this is dumb. I think I know
where his c was and I was gonna just put it there, but I
was like, yeah, there's the chance that he moves, so whatever,
So I'm just like, whatever, I'll just hold onto the hat for a
little while. Then I'm walking back to the tournament and a podcast fan Alex
stops me. M. We start talking and he's like he made a mention
about like, you know, like I want to get one of the hats
or something like that, right, and I was like, well, I
have one right here, here you go. Then later on, so we
start playing the tournament again. He was still in the Gladiators of Poker,
as was I. M. We start playing, we make the money,
and he's on my table breaks and I'm walking to my other table, which
was like it felt like he was on the other side of Vegas, walking
across the Paris room trying to find this other table. So I get over
there. But as I'm walking, I hear Alex starts yelling he's done.
He's like pointing to his hat. He's got the hat on. He's like,
put the hat on. After dinner Aces twice doubled up. Both times.
I'm like, we see, I told you, hopefully it's lucky.
I also when I gave it to him, I said, listen, if
it's bad luck, you can't blame me. It's just it can only be
good luck. This hat is running so pure at this World Series you need
to stop like up charging on this man. He makes the final table of
the deep style. Lewis Hillman is obviously in the money over there in the
ten k limit, hold him, championship and keep sets. Alex is going
deep in the in the glad years of poker um. So yeah, the
hat, the hat's on fire. It's absolutely on fire. But Lewis Hillman,
like I said, he's still in the limit. Hold him. There's
nineteen players lift um. He is middle of the middle of the pack getting
he's tenth WSP cash, so hopefully he can turn that into his first WSP
final table. Moving on to reviewing some of the events that wrapped up or
continued on today, however you want to categorize them. We had the event
number nineteen, twenty five hundred dollars Freeze out and openhold him. I really
really really wanted to play this one. It was supposed to be my first
event on the schedule for me, but work called. We had to do
some other stuff. So I'm not a big deal. But eleven hundred and
thirty nine entries more than two point five million dollars in the prize pool.
Valentino connect chiev I'm so butchering that last name, and I'm gonna hear it
from Rich He's got a cool first name, Dad ass Yeah. From Bulgaria.
Wins four hundred and thirty five nine hundred and twenty four dollars. He
topped Andrew's korn from Argentina, who took home just under two hundred and seventy
thousand dollars for his finish. So really good for Valentino to be able to
take this one down um first goal bracelet. Yes, was it okay?
Great? Great for him. This was streamed on Poker Go. I didn't
get to watch it today because I was playing. But as I I said
leading into this final table on yesterday's show, I love like these I know,
twenty five dollars and like technically like the really lower limits, Like it's
not like a five hundred or one K, but it's still kind of on
the lower side. It's not like, you know, the twenty five k's
that we normally do, the fifty k stuff like that. So it's good
to, you know, watch some lesser known players get to know them,
see how they play, and maybe learn some new stuff. All that.
All that going on, So I'm gonna hopefully be able to check that out.
Probably fired up tomorrow morning, honestly before I come in, because I'm
not coming in early tomorrow because there's gonna be thirty thousand people in this place,
so you're not firing another gladiators. But no, no, no,
because we're possibly gonna stream tomorrow, so I was always gonna skip tomorrow.
Oh yes, My plan was to play one B and one C and then
if I bagged, I can then play on Sunday because then we don't have
to do any commentary on Sunday. But I had to skip day one B
and then Yeah. Anyway, all right, so shout out Valentino, Way
to go. Event number seventeen, fifteen hun Omaha High Low concluded early Friday
morning with three AM something like that, something of that. Yeah, Jim
Collopy coming out on top of this record setting field eleven hundred and forty three
entries and he's the largest fifteen hundred Omaha High Low tournament at the World Series
of Poker. For Collopy, it is his third career WSOP Gold bracelet.
He won a Wsop a pack Asia Pacific. Back in twenty thirteen, he
won the sixteen fifty Plo and then he won the three K horse at the
twenty twenty one WSOP. James Ops, your boy, my boy, former
retired poker player turned tennis player and now retired tennis player. I think so,
yes, Yeah, I guess that's how it goes um aka Andy McCloud.
He took fifth, So welcome back James Ops getting fifth placed. Every
shot out James, Jim got Jim Collopy for getting it done. Very good
on him. He took home two hundred and sixty two thousan five hundred and
forty two dollars, and again that was a record setting field eleven hundred and
forty three entries. The Bodogie event fifteen hundred dollars BA Doogie. Michael Rodriguez
is he's still leading in the final thing, He's still leading? Yes,
which one is he on the left? Believe he's that one? That one,
the one I'm pointing to the pink. Yeah, okay. So Matt
Vangran busted. Yeah, Mattvngruan was fourth, Danny Tang was fifth, Danny
tank Baker eight, Um we've talked about it before. Five hundred and sixteen
entries in this one, nearly one hundred and forty five thousand dollars for first
place. You talked to ODB what about the success of the event the first
time? Like, yeah, asking about you know, the numbers and what
we can expect kind of should there be a ten K version, what kind
of numbers would we expect from that? And yeah, he gave us,
gave me some surprising answers on you know, the ten k but you know,
play the interview, let the fine focking homes. So you congratulations on
eighth place or maybe condolences eighth place in the inaugural Bedougie Tournament. I want
to know what you felt when you saw five hundred and sixteen entrance in that
event. Yeah, I mean, I'm obviously was overwhelmed. As a big
proponent of Bedougie being a standalone event for a long time, I knew that
that we could have these kind of numbers. I thought that was I mean,
that was even blue away my expectations. I was thinking four hundred maybe,
but yeah, remarkable success. And I heard plenty of stories of people
who hadn't even played Bedougie much that entered and had a great time. In
fact, one of the guys is currently second in chips with five left,
Danny Tang. So I played with him on day one and I basically explained
to him the rules and how the game worked, and he kind of,
you know, he's obviously great at poker and kind of picked it up from
there and he had a great time. And there was another kid who made
the final three tables who played for the first time and he had a great
time. So yeah, it's a big success and I'm overwhelmed with it and
I'm glad it's going to be a fixtion on the schedule. I think,
do you think the fact that it was a new game kind of attracted a
big numba, then probably we would expect going forward. I mean, I'm
sure that kind of boosted it a touch. But if you ask people who
play mixed games for a living or just enjoy mixed games what their favorite mix
game is, I would say that Bidogie would overwhelmingly win the vote. We
just Bidoogie is just a fun game. It's a great game. It's a
gamble game. But at the same time, there's a ton of strategy and
there's a lot of different things that you can do, and so it really
doesn't surprise me. I mean, we've we could have supported this event a
long time ago, so this is kind of something that is not really surprising
to those of us who are regulars in the mixic community. Finally, do
you think there should be a ten K version of this Championship of n Next
Sea or in the future US And what's the kind of tagging number for that?
Well, I mean, obviously I would love to have a ten K
It's it is by far in my favorite mixed game, so I would definitely
love to have it. I'm not sure if if we're ready for it,
but I do think that it would get numbers similar to STUD and Deuce and
Lemon hold them. I mean right around that one hundred, one hundred and
thirty sweet Spot. I mean, it's not quite going to be a wad
or Horse, but it can definitely be one of the standalone games. I
think it would probably outperform every STUD variant and be right there with triple draws.
So yeah, I think we can. And even if we didn't do
ten K, if we wanted to have like a you know, a three
K or a five K just to kind of step up the prize school.
I think we could definitely handle that on the schedule. I think there should
be a ten K I do. I think we're ready for it after the
success in this event. Yeah, put it on the schedule next year,
I think, I think the champions and listen. If it doesn't perform,
well, who cares take it off for the next year? I mean,
what's the big deal? Yeah? I mean remember when what was it,
like ten years ago we did those championship events but at a five K price
point? Yeah, like we could bring stop bringing those back? No,
no, I straight up, no, no, I don't. I never
liked them. Ten ks the price winning for the championship events. That's it.
That's where I'm at. The one K PLO deep stack. Fourteen players
have bagged up for day three. I think it's thirteen. I think it's
thirteen. I think when I walked past the clock it's at thirteen. Oh,
they didn't update the updates. I have no idea. UM, I
still fourteen in the ship couns. But two thousand seventeen it might be fourteen.
Final two tables two thousand and seventeen entries thirteen. Told you see,
I looked at play. I'm really looking at what I could look. I
looked at the clock when I walked right. Twenty seventeen entries in this one
K PLO deep stack, two hundred and sixty seven thousand, nine hundred ninety
one dollars for first. Ronald Kaijer, the Dutchman, the PLO expert,
had some success in some various PLLO events at the Poker Gro studio and is
now looks like he's looks like he's going to have some success here. Um,
I mean he's already had success. You get down to the final thirteen
of a two thousand plus entry field. It's pretty successful if you ask me.
But I will see if he can go on to win the bracelet.
He's second in chips. Mike Gorodinski, shout out to our twenty five K
fantasy team. Baby, he's still cooking. He's got us the field bonus.
That's great. So he's locked up for us twenty five points. I
believe. Let's go, Gordo, Let's go. Who's the chip leader?
Stephen nahem with nine point seven million and Ronald Kaja second with five point nine
that's a massive lead, pretty big chip lead. A couple other players,
Sillian Thomas Tyler, who we discussed early today. One of them will always
grind thirty in chips and missed the pie gut bonus himself, Thomas an a
million ships, even Thomas SnO Is in. Yeah, I don't know if
Thomas SnO is allowed to win a poker tournament after you win six million dollars
in the pie gut bonus. At least he's not burning it in twenty five
k's and fifty ks ND. I know I was. I'm actually surprised that
we haven't seen him take some bigger shots at some restraints. I like that.
Um, Like, I still see him at the win playing like the
six hundred dollar tournaments, Like he's not you know, I mean, good
for him. You know, he's just probably probably put all that money in
the bank. And maybe he's smarter than the average poker player. Yeah,
I've talked to him a bit. He seems pretty smart. Yeah, all
right, the ten K limit hold Them Championship, the min bet Championship heard
round the world. Nineteen players are left or came into today are left?
Yeah? What who? What? Something? Something happen somebody bust. It's
real time updates. They went on break with nineteen players, but the cluck
says eighteen okay, and they just started the level sixteen minutes. I don't
know. The bubble took forever, like two plus hours. Yea, um,
one hundred and thirty four entries in this one, and they got a
crap ton of late entries for like thirty something, which is a wild to
me for like a limit holding tournament. Would they come in the day with
like no, but how many? How many blinds? Probably fifteen big bets
or something. I mean, it just seems crazy. They're down to could
be the final two tables, maybe the final three tables. Right now they're
trying to play to a final table. This can possibly be streamed tomorrow.
At least that's our plan. We are streaming. It's our plan, but
it depends on more. Here. Here's here's the thing. Our boss,
President of Poker gro Poker Hall of Famer Uncle Mori himself, Mari Eskandani played
it and is still in the tournament. Ye supposedly, if he makes the
final table, we can't stream it due to the rules and regulations because of
his status within the production team. Okay. Now, I don't know if
that's actually true or not whatever, but that's what everyone's saying, so I'm
just gonna believe it. So it's what more he says, this is a
more rule, but I think it's a rule. No. I think we
can just take his fun off him. Bot. I have some bad news,
some sad news. He's out. No, but he is very low.
But who cares. It looks like he has until he's out. Best
whatever. He'll spin it up. He's more. He come on, man,
but good on him. He's in there for his twentieth cash. His
best finished in a limit holding the event is a ninth place finished in nineteen
eighty nine. We were what three years old, four years old back then.
Yeah. Um, it's funny. You know. The players were kind
of joking when we were over there a little bit about you know, yeah,
it's all kind of riding on more like we got a good final table
here shaping up, like maybe more he should throw it. Not not making
the final table, you know, or some of the guys are like,
well, we don't want to be streamed anyway, so hopefully more he makes
it, you know. So it's kind of fun. Um, Joe McKeon
leads. I mean it looked like he had all the chips in the room.
Well yeah, I mean the lead is massive. He's got like double
anyone out. Joe McKean is hilarious to me because he obviously got a lot
of his notoriety from or probably most of his notoriety when he won the event.
Right then he wins some other bracelets, but a lot of the stuff
that you think when you think of Joe as you're like, oh, you
know, noelman holding tournament player. He crushes limit hold him every single time
there's these limit holding tournaments here at the World Series of Poker, he's crushing
them. I'm like, I don't understand it seems it seems crazy. He
just really understands the game. He's really good at it. He always does
super well. This chiplie that he has looks incredible. Looks like he's got
about one point two million and the next closest is less than seven hundred k.
So Joe McKean is absolutely crushing. As we're trying to play down to
a final table, Nick Schulman is in the mix. Obviously, Nick Schulman
won the fifteen hundred dollars seven card stud bracelet about a week ago, a
few days ago, whatever it was. Ronnie Bard is out there. He
won. Was it the three kmit hold him six years ago? Up on
the stage. Josh Area is out there. Nozomu Shimizu, Mister Haddukan himself,
the number one telemarketer in Japan is alive. Oh. I hope this
guy makes the violence table because it'll be absolutely incredibly Get Nick Pipio out there.
Daniel Edema Ian John's has two or three bracelets. I believe um Ben
Yu's out there. Our guy Lewis Hillman is out there. I saw Kevin
Song Philip Sternheimer getting a massage, probably been getting him slous all day.
And then you mentioned Maria Eskandani bringing up the rear listen more. He's just
he's just propping up the leaderboard. That's what he's got the team on his
back, that's what he's doing. You know, Paul Volpi went out in
twentieth place. Karai Aldemir former Divas Between Moniment champion in twenty first and Eric
Wasserson bubbled the tournament in. That was the only reason he was because you
have my fault that was not my fault. That was mister Hillman's fault.
Okay, not my fault. Oh, the gladiators. Let's talk about this
house. Let's talk about this tournament, all right. So Day one A
just a quick little recap. We've already covered this book covered again. Day
one A three thousand, nine hundred and forty entries. Day would be four
thousand, five hundred and seventy one. Day one C today six thousand,
one hundred and ten entries. That's fourteen thousand, six hundred and twenty one
total entries. So they are, as far as I'm concerned, a lock
to pass twenty k that's already surpassed the million dollar bounty from Laska just with
three flights down. Yeah, I mean this is just incredible. Um,
So I put some numbers in there, Yeah, but go over them.
Okay, we're talking about big field sizes. We want to say, you
know how big this will actually get. Donnie thinks we're getting twelve thousand people
on day one day. We need basically thirty five hundred people tomorrow to be
to surpass the mystery millions. Yep, we think that can happen. Correct,
Okay, we knocked that we'd probably already have thirty five ridge right now,
fifty four hundred and sixty entrance to surpass the twenty twenty two of the
housewoming to be the fourth biggest You think that's probably yeah, let's let's knock
that one off. Seventy seven hundred entrants to surpass the twenty fifteen five sixty
five colossus to be the second biggest event of all time. Man, that's
I think the number that we're trying to hit. I think that I think
that's where I think it'll fall between that twenty eight three seventy one largest ever
and then the second largest year. So I think this one will become the
second largest ever. Yeah, I mean it's still there's a chance it could
become the first largest ever. Well, tomorrow is just to be the biggest
of all time. We need thirteen thousand, seven hundred and fifty entrants on
day one day. It's not. I'm not it's not. Can't rule it
out, but it's gonna be pretty tough. Well, I'm gonna look up
what was the largest flight in that record setting Big fifty that was twenty nineteen.
Well, why you do that? I'm gonna recap flight D flight today?
Is that okay with you? Nine thousand, one twenty one. Yeah,
we're not getting tending task. I mean I don't, I don't.
I have no idea somewhere between. Like if things things seemed today like they
were, Like I was sitting at table one right under a clock, so
I could constantly see the number keep going up. It didn't seem like the
registration lines were taking long or the late registration lines. It seems like things
were moving along super fast, which is great. So that gives me makes
me feel good about how tomorrow is going to be run, because I'm guessing
tomorrow is going to be you know, nine thousand, ten thousand people in
this thing. So yeah, what do you want to talk about your day?
Yeah? We really you can talk about your day because your day was
really quick. Yeah, I registered light, played ten minutes. That was
your first mistake, went on break, came back lust the hand and then
lust with kings, and I was at amazing UM I cashed. I finished
three hundred and eighty third out of six thousand, one hundred and ten entries.
UM, got some diaper and some gas money. It was a lot
of fun. Started at table one, I didn't didn't fall through with what
I said on yesterday's podcast that I was gonna bag four million. I honestly
felt like I was going to when I started to hit a rush. First
the first so you played two hours and then there was a break first four
levels. I tripleed my starting stack. I go from thirty to like ninety
five or something. Double up big with flop, a set of tens,
get it all in against an overpair on the flop. I think it was
jack ten X. I had pocket tens, he had kings. I hold
there. That was a big pot. Then I ruined some guy with seven
four in a just a weird hand. I should read this hand. Um,
let me pull it up. I write down all my hands, you
know, I just like to go through them all later on. This is
how I tracked them all. Where's the seven four tens? Oh? Seven
five of diamonds? Sorry? So this one at my table, there was
like infinite limping. We're ten handed. Everyone's just limping NonStop, like it's
just kind of crazy. So it's one hundred two hundred we happen to be
nine handed at this time, plus one limps plus two limps middle position limps
guy in the lowjack makes it nine hundred. The button calls, I'm in
the small blind with seven five a diamond. Okay, I had I had
one the ten hand already, I got a lot of chips, so I'm
like, whatever, I'll take a shot here, not a big deal.
I call the nine hundred. First limper calls, second limper folds. Middle
position also calls, so we are five ways to the flop. I think
it comes ace six three with one diamond the six of diamond, so I
have a gutter with the four, and I can also go backdoor diamonds.
So I'm like, I'm probably going to see the turn here somehow. These
people usually don't bet super large. I don't think anything's gonna go too crazy.
Here checks over to the low jack. He bets fifteen hundred. The
button calls, I call, plus one calls. Middle position goes all in
for thirty eight hundred, and then the low jack ended up folding. The
button called, and the small blind called. The small blind is me,
and then the plus one folded turned to queen. It goes check check,
and then the river's a four, which obviously drills my inside straight. I
bet seventy five hundred. The button folds and the guy who was all in
with the from middle position had eight six. So when I bet the river
and the other person folded, he like stood up and made a comment like,
oh, I can't be good. And then he saw my hand and
he was like wait what I was good? Like, so he was kind
of upset at me there. So anyway, so then I get up to
I get up to like ninety three eight. We go on break for the
next eight levels. Four levels on a break, four levels on a break.
I just like lose every hand. I don't really play much. I
play like kind of one significant hand with Jack's lose. Like nothing's really going
my way. I'm like I can't get anything working at the table. The
table's kind of like weird, where like there'd be a raise and like two
calls and then like a fourth guy would call, and like some how that
fourth guy would have aces like that that was like the hand. It was
like so weird. I did bluff this this nice old lady who think I
knew her life story. We sit down. She starts telling us how she
worked for the Pentagon, how her daughter works to the FBI, how the
aliens are real she's got a cat shirt on. I don't know it was
it was it was wild. Um wait, this was the lady in the
five C Yeah. Oh, I thought you were talking about like the deal
was telling you this story. No, no, this lady, Oh,
she was just telling she tells she was one of those people were like you
just she just talks to you like you don't even have to ask a question.
She just talks to you. Right. I hate that. Um,
I mean it's whatever. She was fine, she was nice, but I
bluffed her. She limps in kind of early position. Um, high raise
of as king. Guy behind me calls folds back to her. She calls
it comes six douce juice. She bets fifteen hundred. I make it four
k. Guy behind me folds. Um, she calls. When she leads
this flop, I'm like, probably ninety nine point nine percent sure she just
has some sort of overpair that's like eights through queens even like the way the
table had been playing. I'm like she could probably have queens here. Whatever,
not a big deal. I'm like, I can just raise here and
then go bet to turn and shove the river and she'll probably fold those hands.
Or I can hit An as her king, and I can get some
money there. So I decide to raise a little unorthodox probably there because you
know a lot of times you can just flat the ace king there because you
do have some shrowt on Vallee. I just desire to turn it into a
bluff, and turn it into a bluff early, So I raised the four
k guy behind me fold. She calls turn is a seven, So now
six deuce deucee seven? She checks. I at sixty five hundred, she
calls the River is a ten. Not the best card for me, because
tens are certainly within her range. She checks. I put her all on
for whatever was I think she has seventeen thousand, five hundred. She's like,
ah, I don't want to go home this Early folds her pocket Jack's
face up, you know, and then proceeds to tell me that she thinks
I had the deuce you know. So so yeah, anyway, So that
was that. So after that I just kind of bleed chips. I get
down to like ten big blinds. I double up with Queens Verse ace Jack.
I win some more pots. Next thing, you know, I've got
like three hundred and twenty two K head and dinner come out of dinner win
some more pots. I got half a million, and this is when I'm
like, holy shit, I'm really gonna like bag the four million that I
was yelling about on the podcast ultimately didn't work out. Um, I lost
Jack nine. I had Ace nine to Jack nine, button shoved, I
reshoved small blind big blindfolded. It came Ace Jack Jack x X on that
run out, so that basically crushed me. And then I get my last
my chips in with Ace King versus Pocket nines and don't hit but super fun
tournament to play. I had a blast playing with the players that I played
with at the table. I thought I played extremely well. And you know
some spots that I do on a review, I should I should read this
queen hand because this hand I feel like I feel like I should be made
fun of for this hand. So and I'm not only someone can make fun
of you. Instead, I'm making fun of me and the way I played
Poco. Yes, I mean this this hand is I'm either a total jackass,
okay, or I'm a genius interesting and I have honestly no idea,
and I leaned the fact that I'm probably a jackass. So the blinds are
three thousand and six thousand with a six thousand big blind. Anti were ten
handed. We were ten hand the whole day, other than when you lost
a player or two at the table. I'm in the low jack and I
raised to twelve k with ace Queen of Clubs, I had one hundred and
eight thousand, so I had eighteen big blinds. The big blind call.
So, the big blind is an Asian player that I recognized his face,
and I was pretty sure that I recognized him from playing in the Poker gro
studio. I think his name is Bin Dao. Was that was that his
name? Um? So I couldn't I couldn't, like picture like picture get
his name for like the longest time in my head, and then finally I
was like, oh, like I got it. So anyway, um,
but he was doing some kind of funky stuff like he was he was limping
a ton like he would just like open limb all the time. It was
kind of really weird. I didn't know what was kind of going on.
So anyway, so he calls out of the big blind. Um, the
flop comes ten of hearts, eight of hearts, six of clubs. Uh,
he checks, I am debating between betting and betting small. So the
pots what twelve, twenty four, twenty seven, thirty three, so there's
thirty three in the pot. I I probably would have bet ten, maybe
even eight um, but then I was like, you know what, I
don't know that he seems like he can just check jam on me, like
even if it seems kind of large, like he can have some flush draws
here. There is one club on the board. It can give me some
backdoor draws if I just check behind. There's some straight cards as well,
like like the best turn card for me is probably like I I don't know
if the Jack of clubs or something like that, where then I get some
sort of combo draw. So I end up deciding to check behind. Okay,
so I check behind again. It's ten eight six with two hearts and
the six clubs. The turn is the Queen of diamonds. So now this
is where things get interesting. He comes out and fires thirty five thou so
pretty hefty bet what that's the pot or just over? And he's got like
he started the hand with a hunter k so he doesn't have a ton of
chips behind, And I'm just like, do I put him in here.
I mean, I don't know, Like I feel like now I don't always
try and think about hands as what I would do, because I think that
that's wrong. If you just assume people are gonna do what you're gonna to
do, then you're probably like they're gonna do different things all the time,
especially if you think you're better than certain players and stuff like that. If
you're trying to think like on this like I don't know level nine and they're
playing on level three, then you're just gonna like do stupid stuff and be
wrong a lot. But I don't know. I was like, you know
what, this guy, I know, I've seen him playing in the studio.
I know he's been doing some funky stuff today, But I still think
he like is creative in a way. I was like, if I was
in his shoes, like, that's the type of bet that I would do
to target a hand like I have because that queen I think hits my range
a lot. So yeah, so it was tricky. I mean, he
can have a lot of two pairs. I was like, he could probably
just get creative here in barrel big like this straight like it was just the
whole thing was wacky. To me, does he have a queen with you
know, Queen ex of hearts, like Queen seven Hearts, Queen nine Hearts,
stuff like that, and he's just gonna, you know, bet bet
am, I gonna be left in no man's land on the river. I
don't know the whole thing. I thought about it for a while and I
was like, you know what, one of my rules that I have is
that, like you, you know, you tend to know when things are
slam dunks, and when you're left questioning a lot of things and you're kind
of like what the F is happening, then you can probably just fold and
it's fine. So I just decided to fold the top pair on the turn
there, and I guess live to fight another day. And then I went
on a rush immediately after that and ended up with three K going to dinner.
So so yeah, I don't know. I have no idea if that
if if I was right or wrong on that hand, Now that I told
it, you guys might just absolutely blast me for how horrendous I played.
This is what we'll do. When bin Juan comes to the studio next,
I'm gonna stop him tell him this hand history. I'm gonna get an answer.
Yeah, I was gonna ask him, Like I thought we would not
break because we were table one and they ended up breaking us because and then
hopefully we get to like the end of the day or whatever, and I
would ask, but yeah, I don't know. The hand was weird,
But yeah, I mean that might just be a really horrendous fold. Um,
maybe it is, maybe it isn't. I don't know. I really
don't know. Um. So, yeah, that one was tricky for me.
Thought about it for a while. Thankfully, we like went on break
shortly thereafter, so helped me, you know, clear my mind and not
think about that and then go on the rush after. Yeah, and I
cashed three hundred and eighty third. I think I got seven hundred and fifty
bucks or something like that. But you're on the board. I'm on the
board. A lot of fun, uh, good playing. Brent Hanks also
cashed. He's cashed twice, and he's played at the Gladiator twice. He's
cashed both times, and he cashed the five K freeze. He's on fire,
So he's on fire too. There you go, Me and Jeff Alfa,
we can't get anything going. You gotta get in there um event number
twenty three, fifty thousand dollars Noeman hold him high Roller. One hundred and
eleven entries seems big? Is that big? It seems very big. Forty
seven remain Registration remains open till tomorrow. I'm guessing we're gonna see a crap
ton of people. Yeah, Um Talashakirti, Chris Brewer, Sam's overall chance
cornerth Alex Fox and Sergio Aido, Jeremy Osmas all among the leaders. I
was, I just dropped out. Justin Bottom was Chip Lado? Justin Bottom
is Chip lad Yeah? I did that. I didn't put it on that.
Why I missed it? I don't know why it's up the top.
I didn't carry through my way to go. Um you failed on the rundown.
Uh. This will be streamed on Poker Go on Sunday. That's the
plan. Um Our boy Sam's overall looks like he's doing some work. He's
on our twenty five K fantasy team, so we'll see if he can make
Something's happened there this event looked. I went and looked at this event when
I was on a break the glad Eaters. There was like thirty people I'm
like, who the heck? Who got exactly? Like who huh? Like?
And it wasn't like there was some people that like I saw in the
twenty five K and then I was like, oh the person by the twenty
No, this was just like brand new people, like who are you?
Like? What is coing out? Where? Did what is? Like?
Did people win a bunch of satellites? Like what happened? You know,
like on GG poker? Maybe maybe you never know? Event number twenty four,
fifteen hundred dollars RAS five hundred and fifty six entries. Is that good
or bad? I feel like that seems very good. Yeah, yeah,
feels it seems good. I feel like that event got like four hundred yeah,
four hundreds, Um, that seems crazy good. You know great,
raz is the future. I guess one hundred and fifty three thousand, just
about four first place. Jeff Madsen, you've all brunched team Calvin Anderson among
the leaders. Calvinnerson always just seems to crush the raz our guy. Mickey
Doff is out there. He is doing very good. Came in flew in
today, registered late. Being a little lazy guy. He's out there,
looks like he's doing all right there to the hockey game. Let's give him
today. There's no hockey game today in Florida. What I'm saying he can't
he registered late today. Oh we had to fly in from Florida. Yeah,
you understand where three hours behind Florida. I know. But you can
get on like you can get it. You can get on an eight am
flight and be here by like elegant Blue loyalists and not many offerings. I'm
sure they have early flights. Okay, real quick on those Rose numbers.
Last year, three hundred and eighty three, yeah, that's what I thought.
Yeah, and then in twenty twenty one, obviously a different time,
three hundred and eleven. Yeah, I thought this is a massive number.
I mean, I think I read five fifty six and I was like,
hold on, you know, and if we go back to twenty nineteen,
three sixty three, so it's I mean, Nita ras is the future three
eighty nine and twenty eighteen basically hovering under four hundred and just this year,
bang smokes them. I mean, that's sick getting five hundred fifty six entries.
We've talked about the bedogie plenty of times. Five hundred and sixteen entries
there. So yeah, these these events are doing well everywhere. Um,
so we'll see how that one plays out. Three day tournaments. Um yeah,
registrations closed? Yeah, Um? Who else is Nigrani in that one?
He's out? No, he's out? Okay, how almost out too?
And thought that was his best game? Isn't that what he says?
Um? What's coming up? We have the Gladiators of Poker. That's three
hundred dollar buying tournament tomorrow day one d on Saturday. Tim and I have
a bet he owes me a coffee if he gets more than eight thousand entries.
I'm gonna say, Tim, just start getting the money. Ready.
Now I'm buying the biggest, most expensive coffee. I found a new coffee
place in Paris. There's another one, and I think it's like, I
think it's the one we went to Laska. No, so there's the one
out in Horseshoe by the registration desk. What's that called where we went the
other day? Yeah? That one. Then there's the other one that's over
by the Vanderpump restaurant. Okay, but if you keep walking past the Vanderpump
restaurant there's a place I think it's called Brioche by Guy Safoy, and it
says like fine coffees. Is it good? I don't know, but you
didn't get If it says fine coffees, I feel like that's expensive. So
that's where I'm ordering. So I went to buy a seven. That's where
i'm more. That's why I'm ordering. They don't abuse them. As soon
as I see that, as soon as I see that clock hit eight thousand
and one entries, I'm fucking buying that coffee. Okay whatever the most expensive
adages at Brioche by Guy Savoy over there. Um, I have no idea
if it's good or bad. We'll try it tomorrow. Yeah, we'll try
so. Yeah, there's actually there's and there's there's another place that we've got.
I don't know if you got coffee at it, but it's basically across
from the one in the parasite but before it on the left. It's like
a big store, but you can go in and get coffee. They have
breakfast sandwiches too. It's oh, actually I have been there, but not
wild during the World series. Yeah. Um, all right, so glad
as the Poker is going to be massive again. I got the over eight
thousand against him. I think that's a lock. It's probably gonna get nine
or ten thousand, which is just going to be absolutely wild. The ten
k oh Maha High Low Championship kicks off. That'll be a fun one.
It always is. On Sunday, we got an eight hundred dollar Noelman hold
Them Deep Stack tournament. Um, I think I'm gonna play that. You're
not allowns it? Why? Because I'm playing the advanta size of two pm,
So what does that matter. Someone's got a CALVI the fifty k stream.
Okay, we can't do that. We can easily cover the stuff that.
Um. Also on Sunday, Oh, you're playing the other way.
You're playing the fifteen hundred all ecams. Yeah, I'm like straight in the
Nolan holding streets ten am style, So you could definitely be Yeah, I'll
probably be out. I mean whatever out earn the money. So either way
it's a good result. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. I mean I love
the tournaments when they start early. I do like these ten ams. Yeah,
I love the tournaments that start early and then you get in the money
and like it's just like it's kind of like a one day thing, you
know, and if you go really deep, it's a multi day thing.
But fine, you know, deal with that when it happens. But but
yeah, um, you wrote Tim jumping in so Donnie's on worked. Yeah
no, Well I'm we're gonna have to addit the run down and say,
well, there's there's at least four hours that I can play before you even
start the tournament, right exactly. The A lot can happen in those four
hours. Trust me. I mean, if you have four million chips,
I might have to just sit out. I can put multiple shells in that
those four hours. Um, and that is likely the plan. Um anything
else talk about Nah they got they got new chairs. Oh yeah, I
mean I'm a fan. I didn't get to sit in there long enough today
to really experience it. We're in we're on the Horseshoe side where we're set
up. That's where the poker got main stages and all the feature tables.
Um. The room we're in is officially called the Horseshoe Event Center, Okay,
and m quin I have been talking on the streams how it needs a
better name, like the Amazon Room, Pavilion, like Brazilia Moran, you
know, like any I mean, you don't take those names, but something
enthusias. Enthusias was the name of a restaurant. Okay, but we need
to come up with some names. Horseshoe event Center. What the other one
called that? I think that Grand ball Room. Yeah, see that sounds
more impressive than this room. This really should be the Grand ball Room and
that should be the events m big. But anyway, we're in the event
center. And so they put the chairs in here first a couple of nights
ago. They're kind of like a grayish blue colored um. This is my
official chair review, I guess ye. So they're kind of grayish blue covered.
They got a pretty thick padding on them where you sit, and it's
much it's much more firm and much more of a cushion than the old chairs.
You can tell the old chairs were just old. You know, they've
been around the block a couple of times, and they've been sat on for
a long time, and they're pushed down. These that have a nice back.
These also have the back two legs are angled very appropriately that they're not
going to tip over easy when you stand up and you have a backpack on
the back of the chair like that is like a massive thing. And listen,
I put a backpack on them. I tried to tip it over and
they weren't tipping over. Okay, so that's like a great thing. I
think they sit a little bit higher, but that could also because the cushion
is like brand new and it's not an inch sunken in. But these chairs
I think are winners. I like the way that they look. So yeah,
good on the DIVSP for bringing these chairs in, because they're pretty badass.
I like them a lot. But they put them in in this event
center today and or a couple days ago, and then today they're also starting
to put them in the Grand Ballroom, and then I'm assuming they might do
Paris as well. I mean, yes, maybe, yeah, but we've
seen they're bringing in truck literally truckloads of chairs like it's a NonStop out there.
So yeah, I like it. I think it's a great upgrade.
Before we got got a quick limon hold him update Lewis Hillman moving up the
lad aboard. Okay, mariskandani gone. He made the page job more great,
run more where to go? Now you're gonna have to hear it how
you're he's got a cash and you don't. Yeah, you're gonna just hear
it NonStop. All right, Cool, that's gonna do it for us tomorrow.
Now it looks like we're free to stream the Limit Hold Him yep,
So that looks like it's happening, and I think that's gonna be on YouTube.
I think that's the plan, right yep, So that'll be on the
secondary stream with Remco, Rinkima and myself on the call. We know next
to nothing about Limit Hold Him, but those like thirty laid entries or whatever
are basically because of us. We brought we we've brought back when we did
the fifteen hundred dollar Limit Hold Him stream and people loved it on YouTube,
loved it. They're like, I don't know what the heck Limit Hold Him
is. I mean, it's not that hard to know what it is,
but um had him played it, not very you know, well versed or
experience with the game, but they fell in love with the same thing with
the stud. Then the ten case stud had amazing numbers. So I mean,
I think we're just we're bringing it back, we're forcing it back.
No, but it'll be fun tomorrow to cover a lot of big names still
in you know. Um, we'll see who makes that final table. I'm
rooting for what's this shizomating ducan? We gotta Hydukan? Yeah, Huddle,
the number one telemarketer in Japan. That's what his bioboard said. I hope
that that's true. I'm gonna be rooting for that boy. And I said
at the time if if he called me, if mister Hoodukin called me Huddle
and was like Hudukaning on the phone, I would buy whatever he's selling me.
What whatever you're selling me? A couch of vacuum, a fucking trip
to space? I'm in. You're really setting out, producer Rich for some
sound effects. Yeah, some Hudukans sound effect. Well, Rich was upset
that he he didn't do the Hoodukan for the last pod, but I don't
know if he he originally didn't do it. I don't know if he went
back and edited and uploaded a new audio file, which you can do,
um, But if he didn't, now's the time to throw all the Hdukans
in on this ball. Huddle. Yeah, you're rooting for Hurrican. I'm
rooting for our boy. Lewis Hillman podcast was that's my that's my pick,
but um he had a friend at the table, um Madayoshi. Yeah,
so I'm just thinking if they're both at the final table, it's gonna be
madness and ken This is because well because because when um, when he was
doing the Hoducan at the what that was the five k freeze out. Um,
So when Nazomu Shimizu was doing the Huducan, like, the people on
his rail were doing the Huducan as well, like, so it was this
whole thing. And then like Philip Ramos was like kind of like trying to
count the Houducan with his own things, so it was his whole thing.
Um, it was amazing. I'm just wondering if the person on his rail
is who you just said it was and he's in the tournament, because then
then you're gonna get the dynamic at the same time and it's just gonna be
wild. So who knows, Um, we'll see, but it looks like
they're gonna get down to I don't know how close they're gonna get what about
probably forty five minutes left to play, so maybe we can get down to
they should be rejoined the two tables right now at sixteen. Maybe we get
down to fourteen if we're lucky. Probably final table around five six pm on
Saturday. That's my estimation. Trying to see what more he had on this
final hand made a string in there. It is, oh, he's queen
to tens hece queen. That's a drawing hand. More you gotta follow that
so more asking Donnie raised Shimizu three beti no nick Pepio four bet um.
Morey committed the last of his chips. He was at risk for sixty five
thousand total. Shimizu made the call of pos four bet o sorry more than
basically five bet all in for for it looks like five thousand more. Shimizu
and Papio both called so action, it's three weeks, they'll flop more he's
all in. It comes jack nine seven. Shimizu check calls a bet from
Papio. I'm reading the updates off wisp dot com. There's a king of
hearts on the turn. Both players check and then on the river card which
was a queen, so it's jack nine seven King queen uh. Shimizu check
calls a bet from Papio. Papio turns over two tens, so he makes
a straight. Morey had the losing ace queen. We don't know what Shimizu
had, but yeah, that's what ultimately did more in um all right,
that's gonna do it for us. My name is Donnie Peters, his name
is Tim Duckworth, and we will talk to you guys next time, ye
