00:00:11.439 --> 00:00:16.199
Hello, everyone, Welcome back to
a new episode of the Poker Go Podcast.

2
00:00:16.359 --> 00:00:21.039
We are back two days off because
Tim wasn't feeling good. Apologies,

3
00:00:21.960 --> 00:00:25.960
but he's back. He's feeling great. He's a gladiator. He's a gladiator.

4
00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:33.479
Hopefully he's playing the Gladiators tomorrow.
Maybe it is well. I was

5
00:00:33.479 --> 00:00:36.359
gonna say it's Friday, June ninth, foot it's only twelve to ten am,

6
00:00:36.439 --> 00:00:39.719
so still Thursday to me, as
far as I'm concerned. A big

7
00:00:39.719 --> 00:00:43.000
show today. We gotta get caught
up on a lot of things, chief

8
00:00:43.039 --> 00:00:49.679
among them Chad eve Sledge winning another
bracelet, absolutely crushing his second bracelet of

9
00:00:49.719 --> 00:00:55.000
the twenty twenty three WSOP his third
overall. We got Jeremy Iyer winning the

10
00:00:55.000 --> 00:00:58.640
five kingle and hold him freeze Out. We got Brian Yune taking home his

11
00:00:58.799 --> 00:01:04.760
fifth WSP goal bracelet. Isaac Haxton
wins his first long time coming for Ike.

12
00:01:06.159 --> 00:01:11.239
Daniel mcgrand new bagging an absolute pile
of chips in the three hundred dollar

13
00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:14.879
Glad Years of Poker tournament, which
I'm pretty sure no one thought he was

14
00:01:14.920 --> 00:01:21.040
gonna play. I think someone even
wrote in to our mail bag episode as

15
00:01:21.519 --> 00:01:23.959
because and I looked up his tweet
with his schedule and it wasn't on there,

16
00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:29.200
so we got the twenty five dollar
nom and hold him freeze out.

17
00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:32.680
That is approaching a final table.
We'll quickly hit on that because that is

18
00:01:32.719 --> 00:01:38.799
going to be live streaming on poker
Go on Friday. We'll touch on the

19
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:42.879
PGT leaderboard update now that that twenty
five k high roller is done, and

20
00:01:44.040 --> 00:01:46.640
yeah, we'll probably hit around the
rest of the room, the rest of

21
00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:51.239
the horseshoe and Paris see what else
is going on. As always, don't

thousand dollars Dealers Choice Championship formerly the Adam

70
00:05:16.120 --> 00:05:23.279
Friedman Invitational. But we at least
have somebody challenging for like a Dealer's Choice

71
00:05:23.319 --> 00:05:26.560
title. I don't know if we
want to call him Dealer of the Year,

72
00:05:26.839 --> 00:05:30.560
which some people have joked. But
Chad eve Sledge wins this event three

73
00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:34.600
hundred and eleven thousand, four hundred
and twenty eight dollars for first it's his

74
00:05:34.839 --> 00:05:41.199
third careerspegal bracelet. He topped a
field of one hundred and fifteen entries.

75
00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:46.279
What makes this win even better is
that he won the fifteen hundred dollars Dealer's

76
00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:50.319
Choice. That's the fifteen hundred dollars
version of this event. I don't know

77
00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:53.759
a handful of days ago, four
or five days ago. So yeah,

78
00:05:54.360 --> 00:05:58.600
the guy just goes back to back
in the Dealer's Choice tournaments, extremely hard

79
00:05:58.639 --> 00:06:04.639
tournaments to win, extremely good skilled
fields. People are picking all different kinds

80
00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:09.439
of games. There's how many games
nineteen or twenty they added deuce to seven

81
00:06:09.519 --> 00:06:12.399
rose this year? Okay, maybe
one most so maybe it's twenty one or

82
00:06:12.439 --> 00:06:15.279
twenty two. Yeah, I mean
that's just bananas, and chad Ea Sledge

83
00:06:15.600 --> 00:06:19.480
wins both of them, which is
wild. We're gonna talk about another finish

84
00:06:19.519 --> 00:06:24.360
he had in another event coming up
a little later, but I believe he's

85
00:06:24.399 --> 00:06:29.079
currently leading Player of the Year WSP
dot Com Player of the Year stats.

86
00:06:29.319 --> 00:06:31.600
I believe they lag like a day
or two, but last I checked,

87
00:06:31.680 --> 00:06:35.560
chad Ea Sledge was the front runner
there rightfully, so coming out of the

88
00:06:35.560 --> 00:06:40.439
gate winning two bracelets in a week, it's incredible, it really is.

89
00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:43.839
Yeah, it's I mean, is
he gonna just win seven bracelets this year.

90
00:06:43.879 --> 00:06:46.319
I mean, he nearly won hestad. He's gonna play a bunch of

91
00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:49.680
the big mixed games where we're gonna
get one hundred players, one hundred and

92
00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:54.040
twenty players, So he's definitely gonna
have another crack at it, you know,

93
00:06:54.079 --> 00:06:58.319
whether it's the final two tables,
final table, maybe gets full hand

94
00:06:58.360 --> 00:07:00.600
in front of the bracelet. But
he seems to be running pretty hot and

95
00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:05.800
he's gonna ride that luck. Yeah, it's pretty wild. How good Chad

96
00:07:05.839 --> 00:07:12.439
eve Sledge his in a relatively short
period of time, at least in kind

97
00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:15.040
of the bigger picture, you know, being a star in poker and all

98
00:07:15.079 --> 00:07:20.040
that sort of stuff. Um certainly
has come on lately. Obviously has what

99
00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:24.079
two WPT titles yep as well.
So, I mean, the guy's just

100
00:07:24.120 --> 00:07:28.040
an absolute crusher. And the third
race of that he won was twenty twenty

101
00:07:28.040 --> 00:07:31.360
two, Yeah, twenty five K
something Nolan hold him high roller, Yeah

102
00:07:31.360 --> 00:07:34.920
that's it. Yeah, So I
mean he's clearly well versed in all the

103
00:07:34.959 --> 00:07:39.439
games. Yeah, just an absolute
crusher. M We tried to get him

104
00:07:39.439 --> 00:07:42.800
in twenty five K Fantasy, but
ultimately couldn't afford him. After we had

105
00:07:42.839 --> 00:07:46.160
got Shaunde, But that would have
been the tandem that we would have really

106
00:07:46.399 --> 00:07:49.879
loved to have. Event number twelve, five thousand dollars Nolan hold him freeze

107
00:07:49.879 --> 00:07:54.879
out. This had a seven hundred
and thirty five player field, which is

108
00:07:55.040 --> 00:08:01.079
wild. Jeremy Iyer he topped that
field to win his first goal bracelet and

109
00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:07.959
six hundred and fifty thousand dollars in
prize money. He denied Brazilian poker player,

110
00:08:07.199 --> 00:08:11.720
longtime poker player, somebody who's been
around in the industry for a while

111
00:08:11.839 --> 00:08:16.639
forever as far as I can remember, Philipe Ramos. He denied Philip Ramos's

112
00:08:16.720 --> 00:08:22.000
first gold. Philip's one of those
guys that every time the conversation for best

113
00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:24.959
poker player without a bracelet comes up, start adding name. Said that list

114
00:08:26.040 --> 00:08:28.560
you take some people off after they
win some stuff. Philippe has been on

115
00:08:28.600 --> 00:08:33.559
that list for a while. Probably
wants to get the hell off the list,

116
00:08:33.519 --> 00:08:39.000
definitely, So he was super close
here, but ultimately Ayer proved to

117
00:08:39.080 --> 00:08:43.080
be too tough. The final hand
was Ayer's Queen's verse, Ramos's jack,

118
00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:46.600
So you know your head's up in
an oldman holding tournament Queen's verse jacks.

119
00:08:46.639 --> 00:08:50.759
The money's going in pre flop.
Not much you can do there. Of

120
00:08:50.799 --> 00:08:54.120
course, Ramos did not hit a
jack and Iyer comes out on top.

121
00:08:56.240 --> 00:09:01.600
Pretty fun final table was this one
almost had had a decent rail on his

122
00:09:01.679 --> 00:09:05.399
side. I Er had a decent
rail on his side. Ramos's dad was,

123
00:09:05.159 --> 00:09:07.720
I think he's visiting Las Vegas for
the first time ever, and it

124
00:09:07.799 --> 00:09:13.399
just so happens that it times up
with with his son getting heads up for

125
00:09:13.440 --> 00:09:16.559
a gold bracelet, So that would
have been really cool to see. Ultimately

126
00:09:16.559 --> 00:09:20.759
didn't happen, but I'm sure we'll
see Philippe Ramos get get back to this

127
00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:24.519
spot and hopefully, you know,
can finally get that monkey off his back.

128
00:09:24.840 --> 00:09:28.039
And then I I thought he played
extremely well throughout the final table.

129
00:09:28.279 --> 00:09:33.399
Early on in the final table,
like there was a whole bunch of wackiness.

130
00:09:33.759 --> 00:09:35.919
Was it? Shimizu was his name? Japanese player, Yes, was

131
00:09:37.159 --> 00:09:41.399
doing the hood duke in it was
Great entertain Supposedly he's the number one telemarketer

132
00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:46.159
in Japan. I mean it was
yeah, And I guess he's now leading

133
00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:50.320
the ten thousand dollar limit Hold Him
Championship that kicked off today, So I

134
00:09:50.360 --> 00:09:52.759
can't wait to get this big guy
back at the final table because he was

135
00:09:52.840 --> 00:09:54.759
out of control, super fun,
and the other players at the table were

136
00:09:54.799 --> 00:09:58.360
like playing into it, having a
lot of fun as well. So you

137
00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:01.559
kind of like, if you were
watching this dream remcoin, I did a

138
00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:03.279
one hour preview then then the rest
of the stream took place on Poker Go,

139
00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:07.039
you wouldn't think that it was a
five thousand dollars gold Bracelet event.

140
00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:11.200
You would probably think it was like
a one K like just because of the

141
00:10:11.759 --> 00:10:13.799
how laid back the players were,
despite the fact that they were playing for

142
00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:18.879
six hundred fifty thousand dollars up top
super marquee event being a five K buy

143
00:10:18.919 --> 00:10:22.679
and all that sort of stuff,
but they were just having an absolute blast.

144
00:10:22.320 --> 00:10:26.440
Higher thought, I thought he played
really well overall, and it is

145
00:10:26.480 --> 00:10:30.120
certainly a very deserving winner to come
out on top. Here. I'm assuming

146
00:10:30.159 --> 00:10:33.240
we're going to see plenty more from
Aire, just kind of judging by what

147
00:10:33.320 --> 00:10:35.960
I saw at the table and then
the fact that he won six hundred fifty

148
00:10:37.039 --> 00:10:39.559
K now, so I think he's
probably due for some runs coming up.

149
00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:46.600
Event number fourteen at ten thousand dollars
stud Championship Brian Yune. Now, we

150
00:10:46.720 --> 00:10:52.159
just talked about Philipe Ramos, being
a player who is kind of always on

151
00:10:52.240 --> 00:10:56.679
the best. To not win a
bracelet list Brian Yune, I think it

152
00:10:56.799 --> 00:11:03.960
is probably an unfortunately on the underrated
or overlooked list, like you know,

153
00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:09.039
like he's got he had four bracelets
coming into this event. Wins his fifth

154
00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:13.360
thirty third player in USIP history.
To do so takes some three hundred and

155
00:11:13.360 --> 00:11:18.440
eleven thousand, four hundred and thirty
three dollars. But Yun is a tremendous

156
00:11:18.480 --> 00:11:22.440
player at THESP, I mean his
five bracelets, So he won this bracelet.

157
00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:26.279
Of course, ten thousand dollars seven
Cards stud Championship event one hundred eleven

158
00:11:26.360 --> 00:11:31.360
entries, not the biggest field,
but a super tough field. Okay.

159
00:11:31.399 --> 00:11:37.360
He also won the ten thousand dollars
duced to seven Triple Draw Championship. That's

160
00:11:37.399 --> 00:11:41.799
also a super tough field to get
through. Then he like kind of switches

161
00:11:41.840 --> 00:11:46.639
it up where he won the little
one for one Drop which had like six

162
00:11:46.679 --> 00:11:50.879
thousand something people in it, right, so he wins that one. He

163
00:11:50.919 --> 00:11:54.960
wins the fifteen hundred dollars Monster Stack
one year, which had over four thousand

164
00:11:54.000 --> 00:11:58.120
or over forty five hundred players,
you know, so he's kind of doing

165
00:11:58.159 --> 00:12:01.919
it like in the massive field old
smaller buying Nolaman holding tournaments. He's doing

166
00:12:01.960 --> 00:12:07.159
them in the super elite ten K
championship events and then kind of smack dab

167
00:12:07.200 --> 00:12:11.240
in the middle he wins a five
K no limit as well. Why not?

168
00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:13.200
I mean, the guy is an
absolute crusher. He is, and

169
00:12:13.240 --> 00:12:18.000
when he gets down, you know, to deepen these tournaments, he's like

170
00:12:18.039 --> 00:12:22.120
a favorite to close every single time. I mean, five goal bracelets,

171
00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:26.279
that's wild. If you pauled like
not just random people, but like actual

172
00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:31.320
poker player is I think a lot
of them would be like, have no

173
00:12:31.360 --> 00:12:33.919
idea that he's won five. They
might be saying, yeah, maybe he's

174
00:12:33.919 --> 00:12:35.320
won one. I think it could
be hit or miss, because I do

175
00:12:35.360 --> 00:12:39.679
think a lot of people are like, Brian Unis is incredible. He's really

176
00:12:39.720 --> 00:12:41.519
do see did he get drafted in
Fantasy Yeah, we tried to draft him.

177
00:12:41.639 --> 00:12:46.879
Okay, he's the guy crushes every
year. Yeah, he's a very

178
00:12:46.879 --> 00:12:52.200
good player, so very deserved that
he got that fifth goal bracelet. I'm

179
00:12:52.240 --> 00:12:56.240
sure this won't be the last time
that we see Brian Union winning a bracelet,

180
00:12:56.360 --> 00:13:00.440
just given the success that he's been
having. Again, thirty third player

181
00:13:00.440 --> 00:13:03.200
in WSP history to do so,
which is pretty pretty wild. I mean,

182
00:13:03.200 --> 00:13:09.720
this is like the kind of conversation
where Poker Hall of Fame nominations are

183
00:13:09.759 --> 00:13:13.279
going on right now. Is he
in the conversation? I mean, some

184
00:13:13.279 --> 00:13:18.200
people are gonna get nominated that haven't
won five bracelets, right, you have

185
00:13:18.240 --> 00:13:22.399
a point, you know, It's
like he destroys the WSFP clearly, and

186
00:13:22.480 --> 00:13:28.799
like I like the fact that he's
kind of spanned or he's his wins are

187
00:13:28.840 --> 00:13:33.879
like versatile, Like he's got those
smaller buying, big field no limit wins.

188
00:13:33.919 --> 00:13:35.639
You know where somebody wins, you
know, one or two of those,

189
00:13:35.639 --> 00:13:37.639
A lot of times they point to
that person like, yeah, you

190
00:13:37.679 --> 00:13:39.519
know, that's kind of lucky to
win one of those. You gotta run

191
00:13:39.559 --> 00:13:43.240
super hot for five six days,
you know, we get it. Okay,

192
00:13:43.279 --> 00:13:45.000
fine, Then he won a five
K no limit, then he won

193
00:13:45.039 --> 00:13:46.960
two ten K championship vents. It's
like, this is really effing good.

194
00:13:48.200 --> 00:13:52.960
Yeah. So I think he deserves
a lot of credit for his success,

195
00:13:52.960 --> 00:13:56.200
and hopefully he starts kind of kind
of getting away from people like overlooking him.

196
00:13:56.360 --> 00:14:00.919
Event Oh well, quickly, let
me just hit on chack. That's

197
00:14:00.960 --> 00:14:03.440
what he beat heads up. Now, I don't know if this is true

198
00:14:03.519 --> 00:14:07.279
or not. I'm gonna just believe
Dan Chack. But he saw me when

199
00:14:07.279 --> 00:14:09.559
they were on break from the final
table and he said that this was the

200
00:14:09.639 --> 00:14:13.960
first straight seven card STUD tournament he's
ever played. I can't believe. Like

201
00:14:15.000 --> 00:14:18.240
he's played Stud in the horse games, He's played the fifty k PPC stuff

202
00:14:18.279 --> 00:14:22.360
like that, and Stud has always
been in it. He also mentioned that

203
00:14:22.480 --> 00:14:26.759
at times he's like kind of a
tried to avoid the STUD rounds. Now,

204
00:14:26.759 --> 00:14:28.360
you can't really avoid them if you're
playing them, but you can kind

205
00:14:28.360 --> 00:14:31.320
of play a little bit tighter.
Maybe you just sit out all that sort

206
00:14:31.320 --> 00:14:35.840
of stuff. I remember when we
saw Crazy Mike at the Pgteam mixed games,

207
00:14:35.840 --> 00:14:37.919
he like didn't play an entire he
didn't play like when it got to

208
00:14:37.960 --> 00:14:41.399
PLO in the eight game or something
like. You know, stuff like that.

209
00:14:41.559 --> 00:14:43.480
If you want to take it to
an extreme, that's what you do.

210
00:14:43.480 --> 00:14:50.480
But Dan Jack was saying how he
kind of spite registered for this because

211
00:14:50.919 --> 00:14:54.279
he like he kind of hates STUD
so much, but he knows that he

212
00:14:54.320 --> 00:14:56.879
wants to get better at it because
when he plays the mixed games, it's

213
00:14:56.879 --> 00:15:01.000
always in the mix. So so
yeah, so he got in this next

214
00:15:01.000 --> 00:15:03.519
thing. You know he's heads up, um, but he's ultimately denied.

215
00:15:03.600 --> 00:15:07.799
Dan Shack another one of those players
where you know when people are like somebody

216
00:15:07.799 --> 00:15:09.399
who's been around for a while,
somebody who's had a lot of success want

217
00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:13.440
a crap ton of money but doesn't
have a bracelet. Dan Shack is on

218
00:15:13.440 --> 00:15:16.039
that list. He almost came close, or he did come close, and

219
00:15:16.039 --> 00:15:20.679
he almost won one in the Mystery
Millions, you know, eighteen thousand,

220
00:15:20.759 --> 00:15:22.440
whatever the heck entries in that one. He gets seventh place in that one.

221
00:15:24.080 --> 00:15:26.480
Um, he ended up three beat
jamming and that one runs into pocket

222
00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:30.240
Jackson. That was all she wrote
for Dan Shack. There so two close

223
00:15:30.279 --> 00:15:33.919
calls for Dan Chack. Dan Chack
has a run around finish at the WSP

224
00:15:33.960 --> 00:15:39.159
thirteen years ago. Can you name
the game? It was a five K

225
00:15:39.639 --> 00:15:41.919
If you tell me it was seven
cards, said I'll die no, because

226
00:15:41.960 --> 00:15:45.279
that would just be funny. How
he's like, I've never played seven card

227
00:15:45.320 --> 00:15:48.159
set term. But then he got
heads up. Tell you who he beat?

228
00:15:48.519 --> 00:15:48.919
Um, no, no, no, hold on her. I think

229
00:15:48.960 --> 00:15:52.399
I know this five K. Wait
you tell me who he beat? Didn't

230
00:15:52.440 --> 00:15:56.039
tell you who he beat, but
I thought you's not. Who are sorry?

231
00:15:56.080 --> 00:15:58.879
Who? He lasts her? Yeah? Um, yeah, go ahead,

232
00:16:00.159 --> 00:16:03.679
Christopher Bell. I'm pretty sure I
covered this final table. You know

233
00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:07.840
we can verify that too. But
ten also at that final table, Eric

234
00:16:07.879 --> 00:16:12.879
Sidow PLO eight bang yeah, yep? Was it a five K? Yeah?

235
00:16:12.960 --> 00:16:17.840
Yeah, there you go. I'll
get that. Chris Bell's a legend,

236
00:16:18.399 --> 00:16:19.399
have the same name in a while. Actually he was. He's playing

237
00:16:19.440 --> 00:16:23.440
the bidoogie. He might even still
be in what yeah, or he was

238
00:16:23.440 --> 00:16:29.879
there today for sure, one hundred
percent. I know Chris bell Um that

239
00:16:29.919 --> 00:16:33.279
bidugi event still, by the way, absolutely looked it out. Yeah there

240
00:16:33.279 --> 00:16:37.799
you go. Uh just quickly on
that pidougie event, because we've been off

241
00:16:37.840 --> 00:16:41.320
for two days, five hundred and
sixteen interliev the first time they've ever had

242
00:16:41.320 --> 00:16:47.200
a fifteen hundidougie event. I know
Remco has been super bummed out that he

243
00:16:47.200 --> 00:16:48.960
didn't play it. He wouldn't never
play anyway, No, he wanted to

244
00:16:48.960 --> 00:16:51.919
play it. I don't believe I
told. I said, listen, I'll

245
00:16:51.919 --> 00:16:53.759
handle the stream duds. Go play
like what I mean, Go have some

246
00:16:53.799 --> 00:16:57.960
fun. Man. He loves bidougi. I love beidoogie. Two. I

247
00:16:59.000 --> 00:17:02.600
think it's great that they got over
five hundred entries. I think that they

248
00:17:02.639 --> 00:17:03.720
have to be over the moon.
I mean, I don't see how you

249
00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:07.480
cannot be. You know, I
was thinking if they got three fifty,

250
00:17:10.039 --> 00:17:14.119
you know, this is like wild. I mean, this that turnout.

251
00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:17.039
I know we're kind of on this
little sidebar here, but like that turnout

252
00:17:17.079 --> 00:17:21.599
tells me that nextually they needed ten
k. I mean, if you get

253
00:17:21.640 --> 00:17:23.920
five hundred and sixteen, you can
pull between one hundred two one hundred and

254
00:17:23.920 --> 00:17:26.279
fifty for a ten gate, which
is what all the ten kate Championship events

255
00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:30.519
get. Yeah, I think that
with that number, I think it's very

256
00:17:30.599 --> 00:17:33.519
inflated by I mean, how many's
the first time event and you want to

257
00:17:33.559 --> 00:17:36.000
just beat you want to be how
did that first time events? How many

258
00:17:36.000 --> 00:17:40.480
people over there right now would probably
play a ten k David Baker, I

259
00:17:40.519 --> 00:17:44.839
see, David Back, David Bach, John Pearl, Jammer Turner would probably

260
00:17:44.839 --> 00:17:48.559
get in there. Probably Shyla Thornton
maybe. I mean, Terrence Chan is

261
00:17:48.599 --> 00:17:52.599
out here hes he loves the draw
games. He could probably get in there.

262
00:17:52.160 --> 00:17:56.359
You know, Danny Tang's in the
field. We know he plays whatever

263
00:17:56.359 --> 00:18:00.359
the heck the buying what he's doing, it doesn't matter. But I'm saying

264
00:18:00.440 --> 00:18:06.400
if he's if he's playing this tournament, okay, he at least is interested

265
00:18:06.440 --> 00:18:08.640
in Bedougie. And then and then
we know that he plays all the massive

266
00:18:08.640 --> 00:18:11.400
buyonds on trading, so I don't
think ten thousand dollars price point is like

267
00:18:11.400 --> 00:18:14.720
out of his range. So I
think he could get in there as well.

268
00:18:14.720 --> 00:18:18.279
I think the number for Bedoogie would
very much match a number that we

269
00:18:18.400 --> 00:18:21.680
get for say the limit duce to
seven triple jaw. Yeah, that's fine.

270
00:18:21.759 --> 00:18:25.359
Yeah, well that's also the lowest
number in all the championship. That's

271
00:18:25.359 --> 00:18:30.119
fine. I think that that's fine. I mean, I don't love it,

272
00:18:30.200 --> 00:18:33.839
but don't I mean, or maybe
you just make it like a triple

273
00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:37.160
jaw championship. I like that,
you know. And and then it's it's

274
00:18:37.160 --> 00:18:41.200
a mix of some triple jaws as
opposed to just the one off duced to

275
00:18:41.200 --> 00:18:45.440
seven triple jaw, which I think
now we've we've proven that that there's at

276
00:18:45.480 --> 00:18:49.799
least another game that's like in the
conversation, just because it came out of

277
00:18:49.799 --> 00:18:52.200
the gates, it's five hundred and
sixteen entries. I mean, that's just

278
00:18:52.240 --> 00:18:56.480
bananas to me. Yeah, maybe
it's like a triple draw championship. We

279
00:18:56.519 --> 00:19:00.920
have uce to five bedoogie you could
put it in. Uh. I mean

280
00:19:00.960 --> 00:19:03.759
it depends how crazy you want to
go with it, really, but yeah,

281
00:19:03.799 --> 00:19:06.240
it could be a good event.
Yeah, but that's you know,

282
00:19:06.279 --> 00:19:08.200
that's one of those things where you
know, you could easily talk to that

283
00:19:08.240 --> 00:19:11.079
group of players, see what they
would want, and work out on an

284
00:19:11.079 --> 00:19:15.480
event in that regard. Oh,
Chad eve Sledge busted in twelfth in the

285
00:19:15.680 --> 00:19:18.440
in the ten thousand dollars event,
so you know, he's just the guy's

286
00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:19.839
on fire. I mean, honestly, I thought he was gonna win when

287
00:19:19.839 --> 00:19:22.559
he was like down to the final
two tables, I'm like, yeah,

288
00:19:22.559 --> 00:19:26.119
of course he's Chad is gonna win. Eight race Event number sixteen, twenty

289
00:19:26.119 --> 00:19:32.559
five thousand dollars high Roller, a
massive field for a twenty five k high

290
00:19:32.640 --> 00:19:40.640
roller, three hundred and one entries. Isaac Hackson Ike Hackson finally gets WSP

291
00:19:40.799 --> 00:19:45.440
gold. It was his eighth WSP
final table. He won just under one

292
00:19:45.480 --> 00:19:52.200
point seven million dollars in prize money. Hackston's twenty twenty three is out of

293
00:19:52.200 --> 00:19:56.880
control. It's not even ten days
into June. And the guys won more

294
00:19:56.920 --> 00:20:02.839
than seven point six million dollars this
year alone. He started it all off

295
00:20:03.359 --> 00:20:06.880
Poker Girl Cup in January. He
shows up to the final event, he

296
00:20:06.920 --> 00:20:11.240
wins the fifty K top carry Cats
I believe in that one. Then he

297
00:20:11.279 --> 00:20:15.480
goes down to the Bahamas for PCA
wins. I think he wins one hundred

298
00:20:15.519 --> 00:20:17.799
k, like, finished a second
in another hundred k, like, has

299
00:20:17.799 --> 00:20:21.279
a crazy time down there. Then
he has a whole bunch of trite and

300
00:20:21.319 --> 00:20:22.960
stuff. Like the guy's just on
fire. I think he had some success.

301
00:20:22.960 --> 00:20:26.039
But at the PLO series was it
he had a cash at the in

302
00:20:26.079 --> 00:20:30.599
the ten K bounty of the fifteen
K bounty of the Payloas series. I

303
00:20:30.640 --> 00:20:33.680
mean, then he want a USPO
event USPO, that's yeah. I mean

304
00:20:33.720 --> 00:20:37.240
the guy he's wanted something in Monte
Carlo. Yeah, he's been just absolutely

305
00:20:37.279 --> 00:20:41.759
well. He does his one fire, it's his sixth victory of twenty twenty

306
00:20:41.759 --> 00:20:47.039
three, and he has ten top
three finishes. He has thirty seven point

307
00:20:47.079 --> 00:20:51.559
five million dollars in live career live
tournament earnings according to the hendemov dot com.

308
00:20:51.640 --> 00:20:55.200
That is twelfth on the all time
money list, ahead of carry Cats

309
00:20:55.240 --> 00:20:59.759
and Steve O'Dwyer. Like I said
earlier, his first World Series of Poker

310
00:20:59.759 --> 00:21:03.240
goal bracelet. There's a little media
scrum afterwards. Tim. Tim was asking

311
00:21:03.279 --> 00:21:04.920
a lot of the questions in there. I thought he was going to tear

312
00:21:06.039 --> 00:21:07.319
up that first question you asked him. It kind of seemed like it.

313
00:21:07.680 --> 00:21:11.720
He's wearing the masks and you can't
fully tell, but um, I felt

314
00:21:11.720 --> 00:21:15.160
like I could kind of hear it
in his voice that this had kind of

315
00:21:15.160 --> 00:21:18.680
been a long time comment. Not
that not that ike needs validation. It

316
00:21:18.759 --> 00:21:23.279
definitely doesn't mean, you know,
but it still must feel maybe really good

317
00:21:23.279 --> 00:21:26.920
personal validation, just like like it's
like, man, I finally got this

318
00:21:27.000 --> 00:21:30.559
done, you know that sort of
thing. So, um, here's the

319
00:21:30.599 --> 00:21:33.279
interview for you now, and then
we'll come on back and we'll talk a

320
00:21:33.319 --> 00:21:37.200
little bit more. I hacks and
congratulations on your first upsp bracelet. The

321
00:21:37.240 --> 00:21:41.079
first thing I noticed after you want
you're picked up that bracelet. You gave

322
00:21:41.079 --> 00:21:45.799
it a little look deep down that
meant something special riot for you. It

323
00:21:45.839 --> 00:21:49.799
did. Yeah, Yeah, this
is my twentieth year as a professional poker

324
00:21:49.880 --> 00:21:56.640
player, and it does feel good
to finally get that bracelet. This year

325
00:21:56.640 --> 00:22:00.920
you've had you have six wins,
you have ten top three fanshes, But

326
00:22:00.359 --> 00:22:04.960
coming to the WSP was something like
a mission. Feels just to finally breakthrough

327
00:22:06.079 --> 00:22:07.960
gret that first bracelet. I don't
know, I tend not to think about

328
00:22:08.000 --> 00:22:11.559
that kind of thing too much.
I mostly just want to play well and

329
00:22:11.599 --> 00:22:15.720
make some money. But sure,
I mean it feels great to win along

330
00:22:15.720 --> 00:22:18.200
those lines. There's that best without
a bracelet thing. I know. I

331
00:22:18.240 --> 00:22:21.160
talked to just what you finally wanted. He said, you know, it's

332
00:22:21.200 --> 00:22:22.759
kind of just a relief to get
that off your should enough to hear that

333
00:22:22.759 --> 00:22:26.359
anyway, can you can you address
that issue at all, just kind of

334
00:22:26.400 --> 00:22:29.640
not having to hear that, you
know, thing in the media or just

335
00:22:30.000 --> 00:22:33.759
sure, yeah, I agree,
it is a little bit of a monkey

336
00:22:33.799 --> 00:22:36.680
off my back. I guess,
um. You know, I've had a

337
00:22:36.680 --> 00:22:41.640
funny career in terms of like finished
distributions. I prior to this year had

338
00:22:41.920 --> 00:22:45.160
all my biggest scores were like second
place, third place finishes except for the

339
00:22:45.160 --> 00:22:49.119
super high rollerbole and then this year
I've got like six wins. All of

340
00:22:49.119 --> 00:22:52.680
them been pretty big stuff. And
uh, yeah, it's been funny watching

341
00:22:52.680 --> 00:22:57.880
a change, and I guess this
is one more off the list, where

342
00:22:57.920 --> 00:23:02.400
would you break this and turn of
your your favorite wins are once and most

343
00:23:02.480 --> 00:23:04.039
enjoyable or meant the most. You
do think about it even that way,

344
00:23:04.119 --> 00:23:07.799
or it hadn't occurred to me to
think about it that way, But I

345
00:23:07.880 --> 00:23:11.759
suppose it's got to be up there. It's it's a pretty big one.

346
00:23:11.839 --> 00:23:17.559
Winning a three hundred player twenty five
k is pretty good. Now. Obviously,

347
00:23:17.880 --> 00:23:21.279
Um, you and Justin have a
very close friendship. You just talk

348
00:23:21.319 --> 00:23:23.359
to me a little bit about what
that friendship has mean meant to you in

349
00:23:23.480 --> 00:23:29.759
terms of your poker career and then
also just in general. Yeah, sure,

350
00:23:29.880 --> 00:23:34.039
I mean I've known Justin since right
when I first moved to Vegas in

351
00:23:34.240 --> 00:23:40.440
two thousand and eight, and yeah, we've always been very close and collaborated

352
00:23:40.440 --> 00:23:45.559
a lot on poker, and yeah, he's been an incredibly supportive friend and

353
00:23:45.039 --> 00:23:52.960
incredibly valuable partner in poker study and
training. Absolutely, you touched on twenties

354
00:23:53.000 --> 00:23:56.240
in the industry, And I want
to know kind of what motivates you?

355
00:23:56.359 --> 00:23:59.240
Is it? You know, right
now you're twelfth on the all time money

356
00:23:59.279 --> 00:24:02.000
list. I are you just trying
to, you know, play your best

357
00:24:02.000 --> 00:24:03.720
poke or are you looking up at
Justin saying I want to challenge you for

358
00:24:03.759 --> 00:24:07.799
that top spot one day. Nah. I don't think about the all time

359
00:24:07.839 --> 00:24:11.079
money list at all. It just
feels good to still be around, still

360
00:24:11.279 --> 00:24:15.039
able to win and talk to tournaments, and yeah, I like playing cards

361
00:24:15.039 --> 00:24:22.119
and making money, all right.
That was Ike Haxton feels good. His

362
00:24:22.160 --> 00:24:26.000
buddy Justin Bontomo was right there the
whole time, hopped in the winner's photo

363
00:24:26.079 --> 00:24:29.799
with him. Bottomo of course,
as he's been to the WSP winners circle

364
00:24:29.799 --> 00:24:34.559
before, unlike at Isaac Haxton before
this event. But but yeah, remember

365
00:24:34.559 --> 00:24:38.079
when remember the forty k years ago
they kicked off the series. Yeah,

366
00:24:38.119 --> 00:24:41.440
and Ike was there and used just
one time and Vitelli Lunkin won the tournament.

367
00:24:41.440 --> 00:24:45.519
I mean that tournament. That was
bananas. Um. I think Greg

368
00:24:45.599 --> 00:24:48.519
Rammer was at that final table.
That's a weird one. Um Lex Velhouse

369
00:24:48.599 --> 00:24:52.119
might have been at that. That
was that was insane. Yeah, that

370
00:24:52.200 --> 00:24:53.799
was the whole thing was just wild. But good for Ike. You know,

371
00:24:53.960 --> 00:24:57.920
he's uh, he's removed himself from
the list from the list, the

372
00:24:59.720 --> 00:25:02.319
list do you like don't want to
be on? Yeah, we need an

373
00:25:02.359 --> 00:25:04.640
updated list. We do need an
updated listen and it's I mean I asked

374
00:25:04.680 --> 00:25:08.319
you kind of beforehand, like it's
like, who is really on that list?

375
00:25:08.759 --> 00:25:14.440
Sometimes I feel like people just get
thrown on there because they're just around

376
00:25:14.440 --> 00:25:15.960
for a while and they don't win. Like, is Alan Kesler on the

377
00:25:17.000 --> 00:25:18.920
list? Yeah, he's on that
list, you know. I mean he's

378
00:25:18.920 --> 00:25:21.440
on top five, but he's on
the list. Yeah. I mean,

379
00:25:21.559 --> 00:25:23.559
I don't I don't know we should
stop that. I think Shannon Shore is

380
00:25:23.559 --> 00:25:27.839
on the list. I think Shannon
Shore is below Alan Kesler? Are you

381
00:25:29.079 --> 00:25:30.400
are you out of your mind?
Yeah? No, in terms of well,

382
00:25:30.400 --> 00:25:33.440
I might be out of my mind, but I don't think that's the

383
00:25:33.359 --> 00:25:37.279
title of this list, not that
we named it his best poker player without

384
00:25:37.279 --> 00:25:41.039
a bracelet. Oh okay, I
thought, okay, okay, let's wind

385
00:25:41.119 --> 00:25:45.960
him back. Yeah. I thought
it was like most deserving. I thought

386
00:25:47.000 --> 00:25:49.119
you were about to tell me that
you would take you would take Alan over.

387
00:25:49.960 --> 00:25:53.759
I thought you were going a different
pure Hell no, no, no

388
00:25:53.920 --> 00:25:59.200
fan sound, no chance. I
mean we just talked about Philip Romo's getting

389
00:25:59.200 --> 00:26:02.160
denied. He's always kind of throwing
on that list. M for a long

390
00:26:02.200 --> 00:26:03.839
time. Jason Koon was on that
list. He obviously won the twenty five

391
00:26:03.960 --> 00:26:08.440
K heads up to get that monkey
off his back, which he uh basically

392
00:26:08.480 --> 00:26:14.440
threw off his back figuratively after he
won. Dan Smith was on that list

393
00:26:14.519 --> 00:26:18.720
for for a while. UM,
trying to think who else Ryan Altman last

394
00:26:18.799 --> 00:26:23.039
ya won the online break Online.
Yeah, so he's like half off half

395
00:26:23.079 --> 00:26:26.880
on. Yeah, I would I
would get as well. I would probably

396
00:26:26.920 --> 00:26:30.359
say that even if you were to
ask Brian Altman, and I don't know

397
00:26:30.440 --> 00:26:33.759
this for sure, but like he
would tell you that he wants to win

398
00:26:33.880 --> 00:26:37.440
a live gold gross because that's that
is what's seen a little bit more,

399
00:26:37.519 --> 00:26:41.519
what people recognize a little bit more. Somebody, somebody who was at this

400
00:26:41.559 --> 00:26:44.279
twenty five K found table Darren Elias. I was gonna say, we should

401
00:26:44.319 --> 00:26:48.799
do a draft. We like drafting. We should do like a five person

402
00:26:48.920 --> 00:26:55.400
Snike draft for this. Okay tomorrow, Um, maybe not tomorrow, but

403
00:26:55.559 --> 00:26:59.000
we'll do it in the next upcoming
episodes next week. Fine, we're doing.

404
00:26:59.200 --> 00:27:03.440
Um, but Aaron Elias, you
know, he's another player. Uh.

405
00:27:03.680 --> 00:27:07.720
The thing with Darren is always like
it's just a volume game. I

406
00:27:07.759 --> 00:27:11.279
feel like like I don't think he
puts in the most amount of volume that

407
00:27:11.319 --> 00:27:15.559
a lot of these guys like Shannon
Shore played like one summer he played like

408
00:27:15.680 --> 00:27:19.400
freaking sixty tournaments. Just bricked this
like it's I mean, it's insane.

409
00:27:19.599 --> 00:27:25.119
Yeah, you know, I mean
Darren at least like he's got three WPT

410
00:27:25.240 --> 00:27:27.799
titles. He won that WD Tournament
champions as well, so you know,

411
00:27:27.799 --> 00:27:30.960
it's it's pretty it's pretty crazy.
But we'll have to do some digging on

412
00:27:32.000 --> 00:27:37.400
this. Probably carry Kats, yeah, I mean he's always around, you

413
00:27:37.440 --> 00:27:41.720
know, like that's a massive volume. Play doesn't play enough. I mean

414
00:27:41.759 --> 00:27:45.680
I don't know, might play like
thirty five events, Dan Shack is there,

415
00:27:47.519 --> 00:27:51.559
same with Shack thirty five events,
yeah, I mean, but like

416
00:27:51.720 --> 00:27:56.680
they like they always they always play
enough events, I would say. I

417
00:27:56.720 --> 00:28:00.519
mean there's obviously, like you know
a lot of people that are absolut crushers

418
00:28:00.519 --> 00:28:04.240
who don't have bracelets just yet,
and the Kins probably eventually get them.

419
00:28:04.960 --> 00:28:08.240
I mean, I don't think he
puts in enough. I mean, like

420
00:28:08.279 --> 00:28:15.720
so his someone like a Maurice Hawkins, Like his volume is all in tournaments

421
00:28:15.759 --> 00:28:18.799
that are like so hard to win
because you've got to get through six thousand

422
00:28:18.799 --> 00:28:23.000
people. I mean, like like
that's just like so hard. I mean

423
00:28:23.279 --> 00:28:27.680
obvious. Yeah, but he's kind
of in like the Alan Kessler group where

424
00:28:27.720 --> 00:28:32.720
it's more like, I don't know, he just I feel like they need

425
00:28:32.720 --> 00:28:34.720
another gear in order to break through
and get the wins. I've always said

426
00:28:34.720 --> 00:28:37.880
this about Alan Kessler. If he
just showed up to the World Series one

427
00:28:37.960 --> 00:28:44.039
year and just basically played like Gus
Hanson, like people are like Michael Mrocky,

428
00:28:44.079 --> 00:28:45.720
people like what the f is going
on and they wouldn't know what to

429
00:28:45.759 --> 00:28:49.039
do, like especially if he did, especially if he did in like the

430
00:28:49.039 --> 00:28:52.680
Big Bead Games, when you can
like you know, actually put people pressure

431
00:28:52.680 --> 00:28:59.160
on people and stuff like that.
Like people people think Alan plays pretty conservative,

432
00:28:59.200 --> 00:29:00.160
so they'd be like, oh,
he just is getting hands, he's

433
00:29:00.160 --> 00:29:03.400
on a run, and it would
be it would be kind of crazy.

434
00:29:03.559 --> 00:29:06.119
So that's my tip to Alan Gustos. Just switch it up one year,

435
00:29:06.240 --> 00:29:17.519
Just go forgetting bananas. If at
number eighteen, the three hundred dollar Gladiators

436
00:29:17.519 --> 00:29:22.319
of Poker tournament, it kicked off
yesterday with day one a insane number three

437
00:29:22.359 --> 00:29:26.279
thousand, nine hundred and forty entries
on Day one A. So this is

438
00:29:26.279 --> 00:29:30.759
a three hundred dollar buy in and
it has four starting flights started on Wednesday,

439
00:29:30.799 --> 00:29:33.839
So Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and
Saturday. UM, you can register.

440
00:29:34.319 --> 00:29:38.119
You can re enter twice per flight. I believe it's once, so

441
00:29:38.200 --> 00:29:41.519
I think I think it's twice.
What can you look that up for sure?

442
00:29:41.279 --> 00:29:45.519
I'm pretty sure it's twice per flight? UM, so maximum three bullets

443
00:29:45.559 --> 00:29:48.920
for flight three times four would be
twelve entries across the whole thing, if

444
00:29:48.920 --> 00:29:52.319
that's what you want to end up
doing. So yeah, Day one A

445
00:29:52.599 --> 00:29:56.599
three thousand, nine hundred and forty
entries. Day one B looks like it's

446
00:29:56.599 --> 00:29:59.400
twice per flight, right, yes, right, because I'm playing tomorrow,

447
00:29:59.519 --> 00:30:02.960
prepared to fire and all my bas
but you're nine hundred dollars ready to go,

448
00:30:03.039 --> 00:30:06.480
that's right, loaded up my whatever
the heck account, Bravo account today

449
00:30:06.519 --> 00:30:10.039
and I'm ready to blast it off. UM. Day one B four thousand,

450
00:30:10.039 --> 00:30:12.240
five hundred and seventy one entries,
it looks like. So that brings

451
00:30:12.240 --> 00:30:17.440
the total up to eight thousand,
five hundred and eleven UM. This tournament

452
00:30:17.519 --> 00:30:19.839
had a three million dollars guarantee prize
pool. Looks like that is going to

453
00:30:19.880 --> 00:30:26.000
be absolutely annihilated m probably tomorrow.
UM. Day one. See, you

454
00:30:26.039 --> 00:30:27.559
know, this is one of those
tournaments where it's just the field sizes are

455
00:30:27.599 --> 00:30:33.519
going to get bigger every year.
I'm guessing tomorrow we'll get easily five thousand

456
00:30:33.519 --> 00:30:37.519
plus, probably right around six thousand, and then I have no f an

457
00:30:37.640 --> 00:30:41.319
idea what Saturday is gonna do.
What's the capacity to this place on Saturday?

458
00:30:41.359 --> 00:30:44.960
I mean, because that's what it's
gonna get, right, and what

459
00:30:45.559 --> 00:30:48.839
other events actually leading the other way? I think it's pretty other way.

460
00:30:48.000 --> 00:30:52.039
I think the first two days are
above average, and I think we're gonna

461
00:30:52.039 --> 00:30:53.599
be pretty flat the next two days. I'm not saying we're gonna get less.

462
00:30:55.039 --> 00:30:56.759
I don't think we're gonna get ten
thousand on Saturday, though. I

463
00:30:56.799 --> 00:31:02.240
think we might get like sixty five
one hundred on Friday. Maybe we get

464
00:31:02.440 --> 00:31:03.720
on Saturday. Yeah, I don't
give me, give me a number.

465
00:31:03.920 --> 00:31:11.000
I said, what can I bet
nothing to more? Today? I'll take

466
00:31:11.240 --> 00:31:17.599
I'll take the over eight thousand on
Saturday coffee. Yeah done. I mean

467
00:31:17.880 --> 00:31:21.400
they had over eight thousand in the
last flight of the Mystery Millions, which

468
00:31:21.400 --> 00:31:25.559
has is greater than three times the
buying. That's a very different tournament.

469
00:31:26.240 --> 00:31:30.720
Bro. This is the shot like
this is the Mystery Millions. Yeah,

470
00:31:30.720 --> 00:31:34.119
I understand, but that's still a
thousand dollar price tag, Like, that's

471
00:31:34.119 --> 00:31:37.599
a lot for a lot of people
in the world to stomach. This is

472
00:31:38.200 --> 00:31:42.680
the lowest price point of a live
dubisipy event ever. There's a lot of

473
00:31:42.720 --> 00:31:48.319
marketing behind it. It's called the
glad Eaters behind Yeah, they've been made

474
00:31:48.319 --> 00:31:49.240
a whole thing of this. Yes, one hundred percent, there's a lot

475
00:31:49.240 --> 00:31:52.640
of marketing. Look, if he
gets over the eight thousand, you can

476
00:31:52.680 --> 00:31:55.559
take your coffee and enjoy it.
That is right. I'm gonna buy a

477
00:31:55.640 --> 00:31:59.599
Trenta. Wow. We even I
thought we just better Grande. Nope,

478
00:32:00.039 --> 00:32:05.119
trent To. It's gonna be great. Um. Daniel McGrane played day one

479
00:32:05.160 --> 00:32:08.440
A and wait wait, and the
Daniel mcgroner. Honestly, I thought it

480
00:32:08.480 --> 00:32:12.279
was a troll name when I was
looking at the chip counts. And then

481
00:32:12.319 --> 00:32:15.200
of course you see the photos you
see him in his vlog. All right,

482
00:32:15.240 --> 00:32:20.960
we've contemplated, we've looked, and
I think I think we've decided that

483
00:32:21.079 --> 00:32:25.680
today we are going to be a
man of the people, a gladiator if

484
00:32:25.720 --> 00:32:29.640
you will. He's out there being
a man of the people. He bagged

485
00:32:29.799 --> 00:32:34.000
the fourth biggest stack on day one
A. I mean, I mean,

486
00:32:34.000 --> 00:32:37.279
that's gonna be t well, no
chance. I wanted to find him today,

487
00:32:37.319 --> 00:32:39.880
but we got side checked with all
the streams and all this sort of

488
00:32:39.880 --> 00:32:43.000
stuff. But like, I just
wanted to go up to him be like,

489
00:32:43.000 --> 00:32:45.079
like, are you taking this event
seriously? Like what how are you

490
00:32:45.119 --> 00:32:47.640
playing? How are you playing this
tournament? I saw those some of the

491
00:32:47.680 --> 00:32:52.559
vlog some of the hands are a
little little on gto approved. But I

492
00:32:52.599 --> 00:32:58.359
think he's just having fun. I
mean, is wouldn't you if you're him?

493
00:32:58.480 --> 00:33:00.480
You know, I'm sure we can
talk to him about that and figure

494
00:33:00.519 --> 00:33:02.400
it out, but like, don't
you just play this like the three dollar

495
00:33:02.440 --> 00:33:07.440
rebuy on Poker Stars essentially, like
you know, yeah, and it works.

496
00:33:07.599 --> 00:33:09.880
It works out for him. I
don't know what his plan was in

497
00:33:10.000 --> 00:33:14.119
terms of like multiple flights, but
it works out that he bagged the pile

498
00:33:14.559 --> 00:33:16.599
on day one A, he can
basically go do other things for the next

499
00:33:16.640 --> 00:33:20.279
three days, Like he can go
play the ten K limit holding championship.

500
00:33:20.279 --> 00:33:22.680
He even playing the ten K limit. He's in with a stack, okay,

501
00:33:22.680 --> 00:33:25.799
well whatever, but he can he
can basically win a tournament in between.

502
00:33:25.839 --> 00:33:29.839
Yes, coming back for day two. Yes, So it worked out

503
00:33:29.880 --> 00:33:35.440
perfectly for him. I'm sure the
people in the field, Like the people

504
00:33:35.640 --> 00:33:39.160
at his table or whatever tables that
he was playing out all day were absolutely

505
00:33:39.279 --> 00:33:44.480
loving the whole thing that he sits
down. I'm sure the people around him

506
00:33:44.599 --> 00:33:46.200
were like having a freaking blast.
I mean, this must have just been

507
00:33:46.240 --> 00:33:52.000
awesome. So I think it's great
that he played that sort of events.

508
00:33:52.039 --> 00:33:54.960
I think it's it would be great
if like you could somehow push a lot

509
00:33:55.000 --> 00:33:58.920
of the kind of the big name
pros to play that, like a hellmuth

510
00:33:59.640 --> 00:34:01.039
you know, Maria Ho get in
there like stuff like that, like you

511
00:34:01.119 --> 00:34:06.200
know comes, I mean, well, he just won't engage with the fans

512
00:34:06.200 --> 00:34:09.599
because he's just that's what he does. You know. Mike Madisow would be

513
00:34:09.639 --> 00:34:13.559
hilarious. People love Madisow, you
know from the old day and stuff like

514
00:34:13.599 --> 00:34:20.800
that moneymaker, you know, but
yeah, um but yeah, I mean

515
00:34:20.920 --> 00:34:23.159
listen, he begged what did he
beg? Two millions on them? I

516
00:34:23.199 --> 00:34:25.320
don't even know. I don't even
know what they start within this tournament.

517
00:34:27.559 --> 00:34:35.599
Thirty thousand money about million? I
mean, that's just unbelievable. So if

518
00:34:35.639 --> 00:34:39.119
you think it's gonna get over eight
thousand, we're talking like you think it's

519
00:34:39.119 --> 00:34:42.760
gonna hit twenty k. Yeah,
I mean, we're gonna get into this

520
00:34:43.320 --> 00:34:45.800
in a second. Um, So
we got day we got day one on

521
00:34:45.840 --> 00:34:52.320
Friday. I've already registered. I've
got table one in Paris, which that's

522
00:34:52.360 --> 00:34:54.360
the best table in the room,
because that should mean I don't break all

523
00:34:54.440 --> 00:34:59.760
day because they usually break high to
low. I should be stuck in the

524
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:02.519
corner. They break either low to
high or should be stuck in the corner,

525
00:35:02.679 --> 00:35:06.320
and I should not move. That's
what's gonna happen. And I'm gonna

526
00:35:06.320 --> 00:35:08.840
bag four million, and I'm gonna
come on this podcast and I'm gonna talk

527
00:35:08.880 --> 00:35:15.199
about everyone's faces that I incinerated.
Shout out Todd Brunson. And that's what's

528
00:35:15.199 --> 00:35:17.239
gonna happen. And then Day one
d on Saturday. I have the over

529
00:35:17.840 --> 00:35:22.039
whatever the heck number we bet I
have. I have the over eight thousand.

530
00:35:22.119 --> 00:35:24.599
That is the the I'm gonna buy
the coffee now because that is the

531
00:35:24.679 --> 00:35:29.079
lockiest of locks. Eight thousand.
I mean, you really think it's not

532
00:35:29.119 --> 00:35:32.280
gonna get eight thousand, We'll see
you're out of your mind. Um,

533
00:35:32.559 --> 00:35:36.920
all right, so here's what you
wanted to get into. UM, Basically,

534
00:35:36.960 --> 00:35:42.920
the largest field sizes in World Series
of poker history. I mean I

535
00:35:42.960 --> 00:35:45.559
remember when they came out with the
Colossus. Was the first one, right,

536
00:35:46.000 --> 00:35:50.840
I mean the first like real kind
of tournament in this same vein was

537
00:35:51.280 --> 00:35:54.039
Remember when they had the first one? K I think it had like seventy

538
00:35:54.039 --> 00:36:00.880
five hundred entries or thereabouts. Um, Steve sung won Itaious, Muggy Delicious.

539
00:36:02.239 --> 00:36:06.280
Look look up that tournament. I
want to say it had seven thousand

540
00:36:06.320 --> 00:36:08.400
and seven hundred and eighty one entries. I have no idea if that's right

541
00:36:08.480 --> 00:36:13.519
or not. It's probably not.
But yeah, and I think on the

542
00:36:13.639 --> 00:36:19.400
WSP profile for Steve's song has his
nickname as game Over. No, get

543
00:36:19.400 --> 00:36:22.840
Audie, No, that's not his
nick It says plays online is muggylicious.

544
00:36:22.880 --> 00:36:29.199
But why would you ever put game
over as he So that that event you're

545
00:36:29.239 --> 00:36:32.960
talking about was two thousand and nine
Series one King Element to hold him six

546
00:36:34.000 --> 00:36:37.440
thousand and twelve players six thousand and
twelve, I was way off. Yeah,

547
00:36:37.480 --> 00:36:39.360
yeah, I mean I remember that
I think it had one starting flight.

548
00:36:39.719 --> 00:36:43.960
Um, it doesn't actually want to
show me. I mean, I

549
00:36:44.000 --> 00:36:47.719
have no two I'm just wrong on
everything. Um, but that that at

550
00:36:47.719 --> 00:36:52.679
the time, I remember the time, like the conversation was like what are

551
00:36:52.679 --> 00:36:54.599
they doing and having a one thousand
dollars goal bracelet event? What is happening?

552
00:36:54.639 --> 00:36:57.719
Blah blah blah. Yeah, I
gotta all this sort of stuff.

553
00:36:57.760 --> 00:37:01.559
I mean whatever at this point,
whatever that was that was crazy when it

554
00:37:01.599 --> 00:37:05.800
happened. How much did he win? Seven and seventy one thousand? Oh

555
00:37:05.840 --> 00:37:09.880
my god, what a payout where
the payoffs must have been insane? Seven

556
00:37:09.960 --> 00:37:13.480
seventy one four Right, So anyway, that doesn't even crack. How many

557
00:37:13.519 --> 00:37:15.519
are on this list? One two, four? Well, this list is

558
00:37:15.559 --> 00:37:21.079
just events with ten thousand of all
players. Yeah, I'm saying that doesn't

559
00:37:21.159 --> 00:37:23.320
that doesn't even crack this list,
you know, just with how big these

560
00:37:23.320 --> 00:37:28.519
tournaments are. A tournament that does
crack the list that did happen this year

561
00:37:28.800 --> 00:37:32.400
was the one thousand dollars Buying Mystery
Millions Tournament eighteen thousand, one hundred and

562
00:37:32.599 --> 00:37:38.880
eighteen entries that is currently fifth on
the list. I think the Glad Years

563
00:37:38.880 --> 00:37:44.880
of Poker will get more than that. If I think so. They went

564
00:37:44.880 --> 00:37:47.360
thirty nine hundred and forty one Day
one A, fifty five forty seven on

565
00:37:47.639 --> 00:37:52.159
Day one B. I think they'll
get fifty five hundred to six thousand day

566
00:37:52.159 --> 00:37:55.960
one c and then eight thousand the
next day. So yeah, where you're

567
00:37:57.000 --> 00:38:01.360
looking at twenty two thousand is kind
of I have it at Um, I'm

568
00:38:01.400 --> 00:38:09.559
not sure it touches the Big fifty
that was the kickoff event in twenty nineteen

569
00:38:10.079 --> 00:38:15.360
over at the Rio, five hundred
dollars buying four starting fights, twenty eight

570
00:38:15.559 --> 00:38:19.840
thousand, three hundred and seventy one
entries. If you can fin believe that,

571
00:38:20.239 --> 00:38:24.199
I mean, that was wild when
that happened. Has it has the

572
00:38:24.320 --> 00:38:27.840
Yeah, the winner was is probably
right over there. He was right that

573
00:38:29.119 --> 00:38:35.599
he was sweating. Um. The
Brazilian player Raphael Rios, I forget his

574
00:38:35.679 --> 00:38:37.079
last name, and that's horrible of
me, but um, he won the

575
00:38:37.119 --> 00:38:43.039
fifteen dollar in Oldenholme six next today. Femi Fashakin was the winner of that

576
00:38:43.079 --> 00:38:46.599
events. Um about one point one
five million dollars for a five hundred dollars

577
00:38:46.639 --> 00:38:50.679
buying just absolutely bananas. I mean, not only does the Big fifty have

578
00:38:50.719 --> 00:38:53.559
of the record for the largest tournament, has the record by six thousand entries,

579
00:38:54.239 --> 00:38:58.760
It's like it has the record for
the tournament that Steve Song won,

580
00:38:59.000 --> 00:39:02.679
Like like that's the gap. Um. I think this Big fifty will be

581
00:39:04.119 --> 00:39:07.039
wild Gladis Poker or sorry, yeah, the Gladiears of Poker. I think

582
00:39:07.039 --> 00:39:10.159
it's just gonna be crazy. I
don't see how you don't think it's gonna

583
00:39:10.159 --> 00:39:15.119
be confident. It eclipses the Mystery
Millions, right, eighteen thousand and one.

584
00:39:15.159 --> 00:39:19.119
I'm confident. Yes, you don't
seem so confident. I'm on the

585
00:39:19.159 --> 00:39:22.800
fence. But I think it's cracking
twenty thousand, Okay. I mean,

586
00:39:22.840 --> 00:39:25.800
as long as they can get the
bodies in the seats, that's the hottest

587
00:39:25.800 --> 00:39:30.679
spot. Yeah, but I think
I think they've been doing this enough times

588
00:39:30.679 --> 00:39:32.920
that I think they can pull that
off. Yeah. I mean, what

589
00:39:34.000 --> 00:39:36.119
is David back doing? He is
he not on the tournament anymore? Over

590
00:39:36.159 --> 00:39:42.519
there? Oh my gosh, we
lost gun slinger and look at that.

591
00:39:42.519 --> 00:39:45.119
He left his iPad on desk.
No, he's not a break. They're

592
00:39:45.119 --> 00:39:52.719
all plane. Maybe they're bagging.
Did he hit the fuel bonus? Can

593
00:39:52.760 --> 00:39:55.760
you look that up? Says there's
sixteen left or fifteen left? Now all

594
00:39:55.800 --> 00:40:00.000
the clocks has fourteen. We didn't
have to finish on the top eighteen.

595
00:40:00.519 --> 00:40:05.400
Oh, he's definitely that. This
is okay. Well, that's good.

596
00:40:05.440 --> 00:40:09.480
That's an extra five points or something. Um, David about great pick for

597
00:40:09.559 --> 00:40:14.960
us. We need fantasy up Dame. Yeah, we will, um so

598
00:40:15.079 --> 00:40:17.360
yeah, So I think it's gonna
top I think it'll top twenty thousand.

599
00:40:17.440 --> 00:40:21.719
That's what I'm going with. Um. I nailed the Mystery Millions prediction.

600
00:40:22.119 --> 00:40:25.599
I said eighteen to nineteen thousand.
Smack dab on target. There, I'll

601
00:40:25.639 --> 00:40:28.920
go with this one. Some of
these events that are on this list,

602
00:40:29.000 --> 00:40:32.119
though, had five starting flights,
six starting flights, like the one that's

603
00:40:32.119 --> 00:40:37.400
the third biggest. The twenty sixteen
Colossus Tournament had six starting flights so many

604
00:40:37.639 --> 00:40:42.800
ben key Line won that one for
a million dollars. Oh that's try.

605
00:40:42.840 --> 00:40:46.360
He was drying for Uber yeah before
he jumped in. The Colossus is on

606
00:40:46.400 --> 00:40:49.840
this How many times the classes on
this one? Two, three, four,

607
00:40:50.039 --> 00:40:52.800
five, six times the colossues.
I love the Colossus Tournament. I

608
00:40:52.840 --> 00:40:57.199
think it's one of the best things
that WISP ever did. To be honest,

609
00:40:57.639 --> 00:40:59.679
I don't know why do you think
that. I love that. I

610
00:40:59.760 --> 00:41:02.840
know, just like the name.
So it came out. When it came

611
00:41:02.840 --> 00:41:06.440
out, it had the five hundred
and sixty five dollars buying. It's now

612
00:41:06.480 --> 00:41:09.199
transitioned to have a four hundred dollars
buying, which I think is great.

613
00:41:09.239 --> 00:41:15.480
You know, as I've said before, I think what THESP has done in

614
00:41:15.519 --> 00:41:23.760
regards to catering to these smaller buying
tournament players is ultimately a good thing.

615
00:41:24.039 --> 00:41:29.000
I know a lot of people make
the argument that a Wsop bracelet isn't worth

616
00:41:29.039 --> 00:41:32.159
as much as it once was,
but unfortunately we're past that argument and we

617
00:41:32.199 --> 00:41:35.679
just need to live in the time
that we're in right now and guess what

618
00:41:36.280 --> 00:41:39.039
this is, how it is.
And I think it's pretty cool when these

619
00:41:39.039 --> 00:41:45.679
people can win a crap ton of
money, have Thatsop glory, these numbers

620
00:41:45.679 --> 00:41:47.880
can be absolutely booming. Like,
I think that one of the reasons why

621
00:41:47.880 --> 00:41:54.679
I think that the Colossus is so
good is one I feel like it kind

622
00:41:54.679 --> 00:41:59.679
of started this whole thing, right, Yeah, So you obviously have an

623
00:41:59.679 --> 00:42:02.559
event like the one K Nolan holding
that Steve song one back in the day,

624
00:42:02.639 --> 00:42:07.159
but like this stuff, I feel
like kind of had a new era

625
00:42:07.239 --> 00:42:10.840
when it was the sub one thousand
dollars buyings, okay, and that the

626
00:42:10.880 --> 00:42:15.840
Colossus was what really ushered that in. And I think that every time that

627
00:42:15.880 --> 00:42:22.920
these events happened and you get ten, twelve, fifteen, eighteen twenty thousand

628
00:42:22.000 --> 00:42:29.920
entries in the field. That is
just such a great organic marketing thing for

629
00:42:30.039 --> 00:42:34.760
the entire series. Like this person
won this tournament it had eighteen thousand people

630
00:42:35.159 --> 00:42:42.280
like that just really sells the dream
of achieving that WSP glory at a price

631
00:42:42.360 --> 00:42:45.519
point that so many people can access. So that's why I like something like

632
00:42:45.559 --> 00:42:50.880
the Colossus. Honestly, I'm a
sucker for a really good name. I

633
00:42:50.960 --> 00:42:53.880
like, at my heart, I'm
probably mostly a brand marketer, and like

634
00:42:53.960 --> 00:43:00.320
the branding Colossus. It's simple,
it's one word. It's awesome, you

635
00:43:00.400 --> 00:43:04.280
know exactly what it means. Like
Gladie Years of Poker is I mean,

636
00:43:04.280 --> 00:43:06.679
it's a little long for me,
like, you know, you can't really

637
00:43:06.679 --> 00:43:08.000
you know, you can't really doesn't
really roll off the thong. Glad Years

638
00:43:08.039 --> 00:43:13.639
of Poker. But Colossus Colossus,
like that's it, Like that's the one.

639
00:43:13.719 --> 00:43:15.840
Like even like Big fifty I think
is good. I loved Housewarming when

640
00:43:15.840 --> 00:43:19.719
they came out with that one.
Reunion think that one's good as well.

641
00:43:20.800 --> 00:43:23.079
So yeah, and I also like
that, you know, I like the

642
00:43:23.119 --> 00:43:25.199
fact that a lot of these a
lot of these ones that are on here,

643
00:43:25.239 --> 00:43:30.639
Big fifty Housewarming Reunion etc. It's
all kind of a different name for

644
00:43:30.639 --> 00:43:34.119
the same tournament that kicked off the
beginning of the year. Um. I

645
00:43:34.199 --> 00:43:37.039
like that the Colossus stays every single
year. I think it should stay every

646
00:43:37.079 --> 00:43:38.280
single year. I like the buying, as I said at the four Hunt

647
00:43:38.320 --> 00:43:40.760
all or so. Yeah, so
that's kind of my reasoning for liking this

648
00:43:40.800 --> 00:43:45.159
whole thing now. But unfortunately Colossus
might get ticked down a little bit on

649
00:43:45.159 --> 00:43:51.719
this list because glad Years of Poker
is gonna blow doors. Um, but

650
00:43:52.159 --> 00:43:55.000
just quickly, uh, twenty nineteen
Big fifty, twenty three seventy one,

651
00:43:55.119 --> 00:43:59.719
two fifteen Colossus twenty two thousand,
three hundred and seventy four, that was

652
00:43:59.800 --> 00:44:05.000
the first one, right, twenty
sixteen Colossus twenty one thousand, six hundred

653
00:44:05.000 --> 00:44:08.719
and thirteen. And look at listen
to this. The twenty fifteen one four

654
00:44:08.800 --> 00:44:13.840
flights twenty two thousand, three hundred
and seventy four two sixteen one had six

655
00:44:13.880 --> 00:44:17.559
flights and had I think it also
had a million dollars guarantee off had seven

656
00:44:17.679 --> 00:44:23.480
hundred seven hundred entries fewer. Yeah, I mean that, just like that

657
00:44:23.559 --> 00:44:29.079
twenty fifteen tournament was just freaking wild
man cord Garcia one. It remember that,

658
00:44:29.679 --> 00:44:31.599
What the hell? And then the
fourth one on this list the five

659
00:44:31.679 --> 00:44:37.039
hundred dollars housewarming from last year,
so that was the kickoff event for here

660
00:44:37.119 --> 00:44:43.480
twenty thousand and eighty entries, and
then moving into number five on this list,

661
00:44:43.679 --> 00:44:47.840
twenty twenty three one thousand dollars Mystery
Millions Poker Tournament eighteen thousand, one

662
00:44:47.960 --> 00:44:52.320
hundred and eighteen. All right,
enough of that, let's move on twenty

663
00:44:52.320 --> 00:44:54.719
five hundred all no limit, hold
them freeze out. Let's see what's going

664
00:44:54.760 --> 00:45:00.119
on in that tournament, says I. Pull up the updates over on WSP

665
00:45:00.400 --> 00:45:07.480
dot com. Looks like they're down
to eleven players. Swan Shoe is the

666
00:45:07.559 --> 00:45:10.039
chip Lato. I think you pronounced
that. You would pronounce it better than

667
00:45:10.079 --> 00:45:16.119
me. Uh, Jean Zoo,
let's go with it. Looks like he's

668
00:45:16.440 --> 00:45:21.119
leaving the way. Alexander Reared is
up there towards the top of the accounts

669
00:45:21.199 --> 00:45:25.000
on just Korn, who I thought
only played RAS tournaments and cashing RATS tournaments,

670
00:45:25.039 --> 00:45:30.559
is doing very well. Timothy T. K. Miles fun note and

671
00:45:30.599 --> 00:45:35.360
I have shared this on various podcasts
before, but the first person first poker

672
00:45:35.360 --> 00:45:39.679
player I ever asked what their name
was after I recorded a hand. This

673
00:45:39.800 --> 00:45:45.440
was two thousand and eight, believe
this was May. It was down at

674
00:45:45.480 --> 00:45:50.639
Harrah's New Orleans for a circuit event, and I remember he was in a

675
00:45:50.679 --> 00:45:53.639
hand. It might have even been
against Eddie Sabbat. I can't remember,

676
00:45:53.719 --> 00:46:00.039
but I definitely I definitely asked.
I actually don't think it was a and

677
00:46:00.039 --> 00:46:04.760
said he sabot A spot did play
that tournament? Um Timothy TK Miles,

678
00:46:04.800 --> 00:46:07.639
and he said, he said t
K He said, Timothy Miles. But

679
00:46:07.679 --> 00:46:13.280
everyone calls me t K T dot
K dot Nice to meet you. Now.

680
00:46:13.280 --> 00:46:15.480
Every time I see him, he
gives me the head nod. You

681
00:46:15.559 --> 00:46:20.760
know. So he's out there.
Uh, don't think he has a bracelet.

682
00:46:21.639 --> 00:46:24.000
Yeless very good players. Nile Farrell
is also out there. He does

683
00:46:24.039 --> 00:46:28.599
have a bracelet. We had Stephen
Song speaking of twenty five K fantasy and

684
00:46:28.679 --> 00:46:34.239
this one going deep but finished one
spot short of the field. Bonus damn

685
00:46:34.239 --> 00:46:38.360
it um finished in twenty eighth place. This one had eleven hundred and thirty

686
00:46:38.400 --> 00:46:43.519
nine injuries, more than two point
five million dollars in the prize pool,

687
00:46:44.199 --> 00:46:46.599
four hundred and thirty five four hundred
and thirty six thousand dollars up top for

688
00:46:46.639 --> 00:46:52.719
the winner. This one will be
streaming on Friday on Poker Go, So

689
00:46:52.960 --> 00:46:57.280
if you want to watch some nobleman
hold him action, this should be a

690
00:46:57.320 --> 00:47:00.400
pretty fun one. Um, even
though it doesn't have you know, the

691
00:47:00.440 --> 00:47:04.880
biggest of names at the table.
Um. I love these these Nolan holding

692
00:47:04.920 --> 00:47:07.920
tournaments kind of every buy in,
but specifically the sub five k ones at

693
00:47:07.920 --> 00:47:12.800
the World Two's a poker because you
get to watch a whole bunch of new

694
00:47:12.800 --> 00:47:15.360
players that you've never seen before play
for a crap ton of money and that

695
00:47:15.559 --> 00:47:17.960
wish be glory and that's just great. I'm looking at the updates from two

696
00:47:19.000 --> 00:47:22.119
thousand and eight. Yeah, and
I found the Timothy Miles hand. Yeah,

697
00:47:22.199 --> 00:47:25.559
I found a Timothy Hot Miles hand
from day one. So I'm just

698
00:47:25.599 --> 00:47:30.159
scrolling out. But yeah, this
might be at Lee Wilson wins a monster

699
00:47:30.199 --> 00:47:34.360
pot. Sound familiar maybe, So
I asked the loser of the pot his

700
00:47:34.480 --> 00:47:38.840
name. That's great, So I
got off to a roaring start. I'm

701
00:47:38.880 --> 00:47:43.639
just letting man, what a time
will two thousand and eight? It's so

702
00:47:43.719 --> 00:47:46.639
long ago. That's when we both
thought it didn't Prince Gaspard finished second?

703
00:47:47.039 --> 00:47:51.400
Is that tournament? I'm trying to
scroll back and find your hand for us.

704
00:47:51.840 --> 00:47:54.480
Well, this is a great,
great podcast, Yeah, great radio,

705
00:47:54.719 --> 00:47:59.599
As producer Rich Ryan would say's probably
gonna yell at us. Can't you

706
00:47:59.599 --> 00:48:02.000
remember who won? Man? I
can picture him. I can't, I

707
00:48:02.039 --> 00:48:05.840
can't. Did his last name start
with a C? Yes it did?

708
00:48:06.039 --> 00:48:08.280
Yes? Yeah? And there was
an alligator head with freaking money in it?

709
00:48:08.639 --> 00:48:13.920
Yes? And Prince Guspard finished second? No? No, TK Miles

710
00:48:13.920 --> 00:48:19.159
finished second? What Guspark got third? Nope? What do you think you

711
00:48:19.239 --> 00:48:24.000
have a different second event? I
believe no, I mean no, unless

712
00:48:24.000 --> 00:48:29.880
it was a different this is May
in New Orleans. Yeah, it might

713
00:48:29.920 --> 00:48:32.119
have been a different New Orleans event, different, like a different year,

714
00:48:32.559 --> 00:48:35.599
A different year, is what I'm
saying. Oh yeah, look up,

715
00:48:35.880 --> 00:48:38.320
Look up Jehan Gaspard, Prince Guspar
John Gaspard, the same sort of thing.

716
00:48:38.400 --> 00:48:42.159
Oh t K got second? Yeah
damn, I didn't know. Yeah,

717
00:48:42.199 --> 00:48:44.440
they had this nice little room at
Harris, New Orleans. They had

718
00:48:44.480 --> 00:48:46.920
a stage up on the stage.
Was the guy's name Henry whatever. I

719
00:48:46.920 --> 00:48:52.599
don't know. It was an HC. Whereas initially Nick CC nick sec Yeah

720
00:48:52.679 --> 00:48:58.880
whatever. Yeah, he won.
Um, that was a that was a

721
00:48:58.920 --> 00:49:05.679
wild trip. That involves um a
crazy prophet between Alie Prescott and Michael Binger.

722
00:49:06.280 --> 00:49:08.840
Where Oh no, that was the
next year. That might have been

723
00:49:08.880 --> 00:49:14.800
the year that Princess Spard finished.
Next year the next year Prince one.

724
00:49:14.960 --> 00:49:22.639
Yeah, that one, that one
who Prince beat famous November Mealy Nina,

725
00:49:22.280 --> 00:49:27.920
I don't know, Billy cop.
Wow, jeez man, what a time

726
00:49:27.960 --> 00:49:31.679
to be like that trip the second
one, Um, we all went out

727
00:49:31.960 --> 00:49:36.800
one night that in to New Orleans, like down on Bourbon Street and we're

728
00:49:36.840 --> 00:49:42.039
in like some courtyard. Remember Ali
Prescott was there, Michael Binger was there,

729
00:49:42.119 --> 00:49:46.320
and like they just start talking and
like out of nowhere, Michael just

730
00:49:46.360 --> 00:49:51.800
like gets up from the table.
Like we're in like there's like we're in

731
00:49:51.800 --> 00:49:53.960
like a court yar with like a
brick building like was like surrounding us like

732
00:49:53.960 --> 00:49:59.199
like a square, and he just
like goes over to like the wall and

733
00:49:59.280 --> 00:50:01.480
he starts, I mean this like
brick wall. What Yeah. Like he

734
00:50:01.480 --> 00:50:06.679
climbs up like the like the gutter. He climbs up that he gets on

735
00:50:06.719 --> 00:50:07.840
top of a window. He gets
on like this little roof first and then

736
00:50:07.880 --> 00:50:10.920
to the top. The bet was
he had to like get from the table

737
00:50:12.079 --> 00:50:15.559
to the to the roof in like
a minute and it was like a ten

738
00:50:15.639 --> 00:50:19.599
k bet and he did it.
It was insane, and of course we

739
00:50:19.679 --> 00:50:22.679
got kicked out and whatever. But
I mean but it was like all of

740
00:50:22.719 --> 00:50:24.559
a sudden, he just started like
there's all these people sitting around these tables

741
00:50:24.679 --> 00:50:29.039
and then this guy is just scaling
this building. It was just like what

742
00:50:29.760 --> 00:50:31.599
is going on? Um? So
yeah, so that was wild. Um.

743
00:50:32.559 --> 00:50:36.239
I think our buddy Dave King was
there, he could verify that story

744
00:50:36.280 --> 00:50:40.800
happened. So yeah, Uh what
else? Four and thirty five k for

745
00:50:40.880 --> 00:50:45.519
first in this Uh, they're guaranteed
right now, twenty seven thousand streaming tomorrow.

746
00:50:45.480 --> 00:50:50.280
It looks like it'll be starting five
pm Vegas time. UM, don't

747
00:50:50.320 --> 00:50:52.239
really think it's gonna get changed.
At least we haven't been told that it's

748
00:50:52.239 --> 00:50:55.800
getting changed. We look like everything
is on schedule, So expect to see

749
00:50:55.800 --> 00:50:59.960
that on Poker or Girl. All
right, let's talk about the Pegs Lead

750
00:51:00.000 --> 00:51:02.480
Aboard update. Um, so,
Isaac Haxton winning this twenty five k that

751
00:51:02.480 --> 00:51:07.000
that qualifies for the PGT. He's
got to be up there, right.

752
00:51:07.119 --> 00:51:08.760
I mean, he had that win
in January, he had winning He's he's

753
00:51:08.760 --> 00:51:14.920

00:51:14.960 --> 00:51:17.000
way, as I said, he's
by a long way fourteen hundred and thirty

755
00:51:17.280 --> 00:51:22.159

and eighty eight. So we were just

Elias climbs into fourth with eight fifty
nine. Oh, that's a good name

758
00:51:30.159 --> 00:51:32.119
to have on that. Yeah,
carry cats, Sam Sarvrol and lataro Guerra

759
00:51:32.360 --> 00:51:37.079
take a step back our twenty five
K champion from the other day, Alexander,

760
00:51:37.440 --> 00:51:40.800
you can pronounce ye good one seven
hundred points in eighth, Ryan O'Donnell

761
00:51:42.000 --> 00:51:45.800
runner up today, also seven hundred
points, running out the top ten alex

762
00:51:45.960 --> 00:51:51.679
Fox six hundred and eighty three points
where um so three p Fortunately for I

763
00:51:51.719 --> 00:51:55.239
see Daniels down there in fourteenth places. Unfortunely, Daniel L. Gladiers,

764
00:51:55.239 --> 00:52:00.760
the poker doesn't count if he stops
playing three hundred dollars events. Maybe he'll

765
00:52:00.800 --> 00:52:07.760
just petition Carry to make a change
to include that one. Where's your boy,

766
00:52:07.360 --> 00:52:10.679
latar Guerrera? I thought he was
playing at all these PLO events at

767
00:52:10.719 --> 00:52:14.400
the series. No, man,
he's let him down. All my predictions.

768
00:52:15.199 --> 00:52:19.039
We'll be here. I'm sure of
it. Just maybe he's just waiting

769
00:52:19.079 --> 00:52:21.719
for the big up buying Palo stuff
coming up. It's all coming up.

770
00:52:22.480 --> 00:52:25.000
Well, none of these one thousand
He doesn't bother about one thousand dollar buying.

771
00:52:25.079 --> 00:52:29.519
Hi, man, it's come on. Okay, okay, all right,

772
00:52:29.559 --> 00:52:30.760
So that's the PGT leader. Well, let's check out this twenty five

773
00:52:30.840 --> 00:52:35.599
K fantasy lead aboard. Okay,
we've dipped back a little bit, currently

774
00:52:35.719 --> 00:52:38.559
in fifth place, but as it
says right at the top of the site,

775
00:52:38.639 --> 00:52:43.079
results for online events are running later
than usual. They will be published

776
00:52:43.079 --> 00:52:49.239
when they become available. We are
missing two scores. So Sean Deep has

777
00:52:50.880 --> 00:52:57.199
seventy one points right now. He's
got four cashes, but he's missing his

778
00:52:57.400 --> 00:53:04.039
second place finish in the one thousand
dollars online event, which I believe is

779
00:53:04.079 --> 00:53:07.400
like forty five or fifty points.
I think it's forty five and then plus

780
00:53:08.000 --> 00:53:12.000
six, so it might be fifty
one points because there was six hundred something

781
00:53:12.079 --> 00:53:15.840
entines in the field and then so
we have that, so we got fifty

782
00:53:15.880 --> 00:53:21.519
one points coming our way. And
then we also have John Reardon. He

783
00:53:21.679 --> 00:53:25.719
had a deep run in the six
hundred dollars online event that happened that same

784
00:53:25.840 --> 00:53:31.199
day. Reardon right now just has
three points for us, but that finished

785
00:53:31.239 --> 00:53:34.320
that he had in the six hundred
dollar event. I think he got the

786
00:53:34.400 --> 00:53:37.239
field bonus, so I think he
should have twelve and a half points coming

787
00:53:37.280 --> 00:53:42.199
our way. So yeah, so
we got what sixty seven point sixty three

788
00:53:42.440 --> 00:53:45.280
and a half points coming our way. I'm assuming there's gonna be some other

789
00:53:45.320 --> 00:53:49.840
players on some other teams that are
in the same situation. So I'm not

790
00:53:49.880 --> 00:53:51.800
just gonna sit here and be like, yeah, we're gonna move up the

791
00:53:51.840 --> 00:53:53.880
first place, because there was a
lot of moving. But the two hundred

792
00:53:53.880 --> 00:53:59.199
and forty thirty four points that we're
showing, that's team DPMC. If you

793
00:53:59.239 --> 00:54:01.760
go over to twenty five k fantasy
dot com, we should be up in

794
00:54:01.800 --> 00:54:07.320
the two nineties to have they tallied. I don't think they've talied. Yeah,

795
00:54:07.360 --> 00:54:09.719
we had David Bach in the Bidougie. I think he hit a field

796
00:54:09.719 --> 00:54:14.639
bonus, so that's maybe five points
coming our way. Six points, yeah,

797
00:54:14.960 --> 00:54:17.760
six points coming our way. What
about Stephen's song, Yeah, they

798
00:54:17.760 --> 00:54:21.119
already tallied his man. That would
have been so good to hit that.

799
00:54:22.079 --> 00:54:25.480
That field bonus would have been eleven
points. I mean that would have been

800
00:54:27.400 --> 00:54:29.559
It doesn't sound like a ton of
points, but trust me, it adds

801
00:54:29.639 --> 00:54:34.280
up, so that would have been
good. Team Deep is leading the way

802
00:54:34.519 --> 00:54:39.039
three hundred and sixty eight points.
Leading score for Team Deep is Dan Shack

803
00:54:39.360 --> 00:54:45.320
one dollar, two hundred and eleven
points. Obviously had that deep run in

804
00:54:45.400 --> 00:54:49.039
the Mystery Millions that we talked about
earlier and the second place finished in the

805
00:54:49.079 --> 00:54:52.480
ten thousand dollars stud He also had
Darren Elias what was he third in the

806
00:54:52.559 --> 00:54:58.239
twenty five K, So good finish. There's Jao Vieira ran pretty deep in

807
00:54:58.280 --> 00:55:04.760
the twenty five K second place Team
Lady Gaga. That's Wren Lynn's team Sean

808
00:55:04.840 --> 00:55:09.119
Winter. One hundred fifty seven points
is the biggest score for him. Alex

809
00:55:09.199 --> 00:55:15.360
Lemington's second biggest score was seventy eight
Team Maria's Homies. Maria's team. She

810
00:55:15.480 --> 00:55:19.039
was Team Ooth cry Aldemere last year. She won the damn thing. She's

811
00:55:19.079 --> 00:55:23.000
got Brian Yune crushing two hundred and
two points. For Brian Yune. What

812
00:55:23.119 --> 00:55:27.920
the heck has he done? Oh? He hit the field bonus in the

813
00:55:28.079 --> 00:55:31.679
Mystery Millions and he won the ten
K seven cards side there were some questions

814
00:55:31.719 --> 00:55:36.440
about this exact thing. I think
it's what spawned the questions on social media

815
00:55:36.519 --> 00:55:39.079
where they were like, how does
a hundred how does it? Basically saw

816
00:55:39.239 --> 00:55:44.519
one hundred place finished in the Mystery
Millions equate to winning a ten K championship

817
00:55:44.559 --> 00:55:47.320
event. I mean, whatever,
it's set. I think it's I think

818
00:55:47.960 --> 00:55:52.639
I think it's fine. I mean, I know, like it's not really

819
00:55:52.679 --> 00:55:57.679
the same thing, but you still
got one hundredth place out of eighteen thousand

820
00:55:57.719 --> 00:56:00.360
people, right, yeah, I
mean that's pretty crazy. Who else we

821
00:56:00.480 --> 00:56:04.960
gots? Who else is ahead of
us? Team Zamani. That's Martin Zamani's

822
00:56:04.960 --> 00:56:07.719
team. He's got mac Lanz who
hit the field bonus in the Mystery Millions.

823
00:56:07.800 --> 00:56:10.800
Dan Coleboys also hit the field bonus
and the Mistery Millions. What's it

824
00:56:10.920 --> 00:56:17.199
like to get two field bonuses?
Max Coleman ran deep in the ten Case

825
00:56:17.360 --> 00:56:22.880
stud for eighty one points. He
got third place, so a lot of

826
00:56:22.960 --> 00:56:27.239
points there for Team Zamani and then
Warren fifth. So we need to do

827
00:56:27.360 --> 00:56:30.599
some work here. Team Noel gam
in the future definitely needs to do some

828
00:56:30.760 --> 00:56:37.519
work. Kristin foxon who you know
if you would follow Jeff Platt and Brent

829
00:56:37.599 --> 00:56:40.639
Hanks on social media. They recently
promoted christ And Foxon to co captain.

830
00:56:42.039 --> 00:56:45.280
Personally, I think she should be
the soul captain because no one else on

831
00:56:45.320 --> 00:56:49.320
this team has done anything correct.
She's co captain alongside Jeremy Osmas. Jeremy

832
00:56:49.360 --> 00:56:53.119
Houses hadn't done squat this year yet. Therefore, Kristin Foxon should carry the

833
00:56:53.199 --> 00:56:58.519
flag as the champion because she is
having a great summer so far. She

834
00:56:58.679 --> 00:57:01.360
had a sixth place finish in the
five k half and half that's half NOL

835
00:57:01.400 --> 00:57:04.880
and hold them half PLO. She
had a twenty sixth place finish in the

836
00:57:04.920 --> 00:57:07.280
five k freeze Out, and then
she had a twelfth place finish in the

837
00:57:07.400 --> 00:57:13.000
twenty five k high Roller that Isaac
Haxton won. So good summer so far

838
00:57:13.119 --> 00:57:17.280
for Kristen Foxton, but the team
overall not doing so hot. But just

839
00:57:17.440 --> 00:57:21.960
as I've always said with our teams
over the years, it's super early.

840
00:57:22.239 --> 00:57:24.199
We're barely a weekend, you know. We just hit the week mark,

841
00:57:24.320 --> 00:57:30.360
so we still got five six weeks
to go. So there's a crap ton

842
00:57:30.400 --> 00:57:32.000
of stuff coming up. You talked
about some of the PLO stuff, lots

843
00:57:32.039 --> 00:57:35.280
of big buy ins you got,
you know, fifty k's, hundred k's

844
00:57:35.320 --> 00:57:37.760
two hundred fifty k, you got
fifty k PPC tons of those ten K

845
00:57:37.920 --> 00:57:42.880
championship events. So yeah, so
there's a lot of stuff still to be

846
00:57:43.039 --> 00:57:46.239
had. So Team No gamb in
the future. They're currently sitting tied for

847
00:57:46.320 --> 00:57:51.480
eighteenth out of twenty teams. They
can certainly move on up the leaderboard.

848
00:57:51.519 --> 00:57:54.559
So that's the update for twenty five
K Fantasy. Just heading over to twenty

849
00:57:54.599 --> 00:57:59.239
five K fantasy dot com if you
want to sweat it. What do we

850
00:57:59.320 --> 00:58:02.159
got coming up? I've been in
everything. We have you bagging four million

851
00:58:02.199 --> 00:58:06.079

first. We've got a fifty k starting

853
00:58:08.400 --> 00:58:12.679
tomorrow. We're gonna be streaming that
final table on Sunday. I don't know

854
00:58:12.719 --> 00:58:15.639
if you guys can hear this,
by the way, yeah, but I

855
00:58:15.679 --> 00:58:21.400
don't know how well these mics pick
it up. But that is the I

856
00:58:21.519 --> 00:58:27.880
guess the after party. Yes,
for the fifteen hundred dollar Noelman hold him

857
00:58:27.920 --> 00:58:32.760
six Max, that was Raphael Race
one fourner and sixty five thousand dollars.

858
00:58:34.639 --> 00:58:38.159
This event ended like two hours ago. They're still here. They're still here.

859
00:58:38.199 --> 00:58:43.360
It'll get wild, having a party
of the drink it. No,

860
00:58:43.559 --> 00:58:45.440
let them have their fun. Man, they're having a party of it.

861
00:58:45.719 --> 00:58:47.840
They guys want a bracelet. This
is amazing. You gotta love it.

862
00:58:49.000 --> 00:58:52.719
So m Raphael is a Brazilian player
of the Brazilians always come out in full

863
00:58:52.760 --> 00:58:54.440
force. They've been singing and dance
on the whole damn night. It's amazing.

864
00:58:55.199 --> 00:58:58.599
Um. So yeah, he won, As I said, four and

865
00:58:58.679 --> 00:59:01.119
sixty five K top the field of
twenty four hundred and fifty four entries.

866
00:59:01.559 --> 00:59:06.880
In that one, John Manette finished
in fifth place. Didn't think he would

867
00:59:06.920 --> 00:59:08.440
play no hole in six max,
but here he is coming in fifth place,

868
00:59:08.480 --> 00:59:12.559
one hundred and eleven K. Yeah. Um, anyway, go back

869
00:59:12.599 --> 00:59:15.400
to what you were saying, what's
coming up? Fifty K no limon high

870
00:59:15.440 --> 00:59:22.000
rollas yea streaming that final table that

871
00:59:22.119 --> 00:59:25.480
Three days? So can Daniel play

00:59:25.519 --> 00:59:30.360
play that one? He'll have to
move about them all the table Mega.

873
00:59:30.440 --> 00:59:35.719
He was playing a three hundred and
same time if he's hilarious, fifteen hundred

874
00:59:35.719 --> 00:59:37.559
dollar rats thoughts on Friday as well, and then on Saturday, the ten

got some fun stuff going on coming up

876
00:59:43.920 --> 00:59:47.320
today. We did have the kickoff
for the ten k limit Hold Them Championship,

877
00:59:47.440 --> 00:59:52.880
so I think that final table is
scheduled to be live streamed, depending

878
00:59:53.000 --> 00:59:55.920
things don't change, but you know
they can always change, of course,

879
00:59:57.039 --> 01:00:00.400
but that should be a fun one
coming up. So yeah, lots of

880
01:00:00.440 --> 01:00:04.519
stuff as we're just getting into the
second week of the twenty twenty three World

881
01:00:04.519 --> 01:00:08.440
Ties of Poker. Numbers are absolutely
amazing. So far, We've talked about

882
01:00:08.440 --> 01:00:12.000
a lot of them, and I'm
assuming we're gonna talk a lot more about

883
01:00:12.039 --> 01:00:15.679
them. Most immediately will be the
glad Ears of Poker. We'll see how
