How many? 132 00:07:10.639 --> 00:07:10.920 How many? 133 00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:12.160 How many does Sean Deep have? 134 00:07:12.959 --> 00:07:13.240 Five? 135 00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:16.879 Nopee has won because he's given four away? Wait does 136 00:07:16.920 --> 00:07:18.920 he does he give him all the way? I think 137 00:07:18.959 --> 00:07:20.759 he said. I think he said he kept the first one. 138 00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:25.319 How many the NBA Championships does Michael Jordan have six. Yeah, 139 00:07:25.360 --> 00:07:27.240 you know, I say four. He says six, you say 140 00:07:27.240 --> 00:07:27.600 the biggest. 141 00:07:28.199 --> 00:07:30.360 Yeah. But but if you're asking me if he has four, 142 00:07:30.680 --> 00:07:33.480 then the answer is yes, he does technically have full 143 00:07:33.600 --> 00:07:37.040 I mean, don't be on a technicality yes saying I 144 00:07:37.480 --> 00:07:42.680 just say this is done up just in the con 145 00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:46.839 Brian Rast Brian Rast top day field of one hundred 146 00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:49.360 and thirty four entries to win three hundred and six 147 00:07:49.839 --> 00:07:54.199 thousand dollars. A friend of the podcast and my commentary 148 00:07:54.240 --> 00:07:58.800 friend at times, Kevin Gerhart, wanted me to say he said. 149 00:07:58.920 --> 00:08:00.839 He said, be sure to say this when you talk 150 00:08:00.839 --> 00:08:03.360 about the the RAS ten K heads up. So I'm 151 00:08:03.360 --> 00:08:05.600 pretty sure I'm free to say it. He said, yay, 152 00:08:05.720 --> 00:08:09.199 Andrew ye had rassed all in and behind. If any 153 00:08:09.240 --> 00:08:10.680 of these details are wrong, I just wanted to be 154 00:08:10.759 --> 00:08:14.360 clear that this is. He said. Andrew ya had rassed 155 00:08:14.360 --> 00:08:18.879 all in and behind on sixth Street three times. He 156 00:08:18.920 --> 00:08:22.399 peeled the winner each time and came back. He also 157 00:08:22.439 --> 00:08:25.480 started a hand with under one big bet two hundred 158 00:08:25.480 --> 00:08:28.519 and forty k out of eight million chips in play, 159 00:08:28.680 --> 00:08:31.839 so I think that happened multiple times. So Rasty with 160 00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:36.440 a comeback for the ages against Andrew yay and heads 161 00:08:36.519 --> 00:08:40.320 up play. Andrew Ye was looking for his second he 162 00:08:40.360 --> 00:08:42.879 won the ten k horse a couple of years ago. 163 00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:48.679 But Rasty goes on to get his seventh bit emotional afterwards, 164 00:08:49.080 --> 00:08:52.759 which which honestly kind of surprised me because one, he's 165 00:08:52.799 --> 00:08:56.159 been there, done it many times. I also think that 166 00:08:56.840 --> 00:08:59.879 he really made a big push towards the Poker Hall 167 00:08:59.879 --> 00:09:01.720 of Fame. He really wanted to get into it, and 168 00:09:01.759 --> 00:09:03.200 he did get into it. So I now now I 169 00:09:03.200 --> 00:09:05.000 thought that, you know, everything kind of after that would 170 00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:07.240 be sort of gravy. But you could definitely tell that 171 00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:11.080 this one hit home for Brian rast As I mentioned 172 00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:13.480 three hundred and six thousand dollars for him. Andrew Ye 173 00:09:13.639 --> 00:09:16.960 got two O four per second, Brian yun finished third, 174 00:09:17.039 --> 00:09:22.759 Jao Vieira finished fourth, Nikolai Ponomarev got fifth for seventy 175 00:09:22.879 --> 00:09:26.960 five k, Christian Roberts sixth, Ali Islami seventh, and Maxim 176 00:09:27.320 --> 00:09:30.679 misa Enko. Is that supposed to say? I was going 177 00:09:30.759 --> 00:09:34.799 to say, is there there's another guy? Except for the 178 00:09:34.879 --> 00:09:36.759 first letter. A lot of them like, no, no way, 179 00:09:36.840 --> 00:09:40.320 that's not right. So that is the ten k res. 180 00:09:40.320 --> 00:09:43.639 They battled for quite a bit today.

The 193 00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:16.919 drawing technically a pyramid. 194 00:10:17.000 --> 00:10:19.919 It's technically a if you want to play the technical 195 00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:23.000 stall Championships from Michael Jordan. It's still trying to. 196 00:10:23.039 --> 00:10:27.639 Stop just saying when he when he talks about like 197 00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:29.399 like he talks about like you know, the the NBA 198 00:10:29.879 --> 00:10:32.360 all time greats, yep, and and he'll say like, you know, 199 00:10:32.480 --> 00:10:35.480 this guy's now he's in the top fifteen, or now 200 00:10:35.480 --> 00:10:37.080 he's pushing to the top ten, or he's in the 201 00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:39.240 top forty of you know, of all time. Like that's 202 00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:41.600 how I try and think of it. Okay, so you know, 203 00:10:41.759 --> 00:10:44.080 kind of where do you put Brian Rest? 204 00:10:44.480 --> 00:10:47.399 Okay, so we got helm with first right top. 205 00:10:48.320 --> 00:10:51.879 This guy, this guy's unreal. I mean just Ivy bros. 206 00:10:52.039 --> 00:10:54.559 Phill He's number one Ivy Brunts and the Grano next 207 00:10:54.679 --> 00:10:57.080 year and the next thing, I say, five, right. 208 00:10:57.000 --> 00:10:57.480 Are you guys? 209 00:10:58.120 --> 00:10:58.320 Five? 210 00:10:58.360 --> 00:10:59.480 Are you doing a triangle or you're not? 211 00:10:59.519 --> 00:11:00.679 A pyramid? Isn't it? 212 00:11:00.759 --> 00:11:00.879 One? 213 00:11:00.960 --> 00:11:01.159 Three? 214 00:11:01.240 --> 00:11:04.559 Five? I think was he one? I think he doubles? 215 00:11:04.559 --> 00:11:05.480 Doesn't he skip. 216 00:11:05.279 --> 00:11:09.759 Perstval it goes one two three? No, I don't think 217 00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:11.960 he's does. I don't think he's does the I'm pretty 218 00:11:11.960 --> 00:11:13.559 sure that's exactly how if we want to do it 219 00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:15.559 that way. Okay, fine, But he always makes like, you know, 220 00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:17.279 he always says like, well, I'm just gonna put this 221 00:11:17.279 --> 00:11:19.399 guy on this level and you know stuff like that. 222 00:11:19.399 --> 00:11:21.360 That's why you just just do like the top whatever, 223 00:11:21.519 --> 00:11:23.440 Like where do you think he is? Is he top 224 00:11:23.519 --> 00:11:26.799 twenty five all time? Is he top like okay, he's 225 00:11:27.240 --> 00:11:30.080 Is he top one hundred yeses? Is he top fifty yes? 226 00:11:30.320 --> 00:11:31.200 Is he top twenty five? 227 00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:31.559 Yes? 228 00:11:32.120 --> 00:11:32.879 Is he top fifteen? 229 00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:33.840 Yes? 230 00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:37.399 I don't know top fifteen. I think I. 231 00:11:38.279 --> 00:11:41.519 Three PPC titles and the first super high roller ball. 232 00:11:41.679 --> 00:11:44.080 Yeah, I'm just trying to think of like who else. 233 00:11:44.120 --> 00:11:48.440 Cash Games commentary All the Game got some edited valley. 234 00:11:48.480 --> 00:11:52.840 The tricky part about this is, like, I'd be curious 235 00:11:52.879 --> 00:11:56.200 to where, like the if you were to ask a 236 00:11:56.200 --> 00:11:59.240 bunch of poker players where they would put someone like 237 00:11:59.399 --> 00:12:03.559 David Open I'm compared to Brian Rast. I mean, obviously 238 00:12:03.639 --> 00:12:07.159 all okay, but all the all the like top guys, 239 00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:08.600 a lot of the top guys who are in the 240 00:12:08.600 --> 00:12:11.399 Hall of Fame obviously voted for Open time to get 241 00:12:11.399 --> 00:12:13.679 into the Hall of Fame, right, So wouldn't they then 242 00:12:13.720 --> 00:12:15.320 hold him in such a high regard, which I think 243 00:12:15.320 --> 00:12:19.039 that they do when it comes to high stakes cash games. Now, Oppenheim, 244 00:12:19.159 --> 00:12:22.440 of course does not have the tournament accolades that Brian 245 00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:25.000 Rast has. Now, Brian Rast has played plenty of high 246 00:12:25.000 --> 00:12:28.919 stakes cash but you know, so how would they be, 247 00:12:29.000 --> 00:12:31.279 Like would they be like, yeah, Oppenheim is top fifteen. Now, 248 00:12:31.320 --> 00:12:35.720 that's hard, that's hard for us to judge because we're 249 00:12:35.720 --> 00:12:39.120 not as ingrained in that part of the community to know, 250 00:12:39.200 --> 00:12:41.240 like we're not playing with those guys every single day 251 00:12:41.279 --> 00:12:45.200 like that sort of stuff, right, you know, Like we 252 00:12:45.240 --> 00:12:47.879 don't need to name names. But somebody suggested Michael Turrets 253 00:12:48.320 --> 00:12:52.039 for the Hall of fame, right, and like, how how 254 00:12:52.080 --> 00:12:54.360 are we ever supposed to know that? Yeah, I mean 255 00:12:54.360 --> 00:12:57.600 we obviously know that he's a good player, but I mean, 256 00:12:57.720 --> 00:12:58.039 I mean. 257 00:12:57.960 --> 00:12:59.360 Well, that's what the Hall of Fame is, right. It 258 00:12:59.440 --> 00:13:02.080 is a kind of like a boys club, just the 259 00:13:02.080 --> 00:13:04.600 way the voting is, so it's going to get shaped 260 00:13:04.639 --> 00:13:07.200 in a way that as they keep voting in the 261 00:13:07.200 --> 00:13:09.320 same kind of people, it's going to be pushed in 262 00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:11.480 that direction. I think we are looking at it from a. 263 00:13:11.960 --> 00:13:14.639 So I like, I also like to look at it 264 00:13:14.720 --> 00:13:22.000 like it's predominantly tournament stuff, and then cash game stuff 265 00:13:22.039 --> 00:13:25.200 is kind of comes in as like like a, well 266 00:13:25.240 --> 00:13:27.879 he has this as well. Yeah, So like if I 267 00:13:27.879 --> 00:13:30.200 see Brett Brian Rass, and then I see somebody else 268 00:13:30.840 --> 00:13:32.480 then I and then I look at it and I say, well, 269 00:13:32.840 --> 00:13:35.639 Brian Rass has the cash game stuff, you know, and 270 00:13:35.679 --> 00:13:38.600 then so that that pushes him in just because not 271 00:13:38.720 --> 00:13:40.759 because the cash game stuff isn't worthy and it might 272 00:13:40.799 --> 00:13:43.879 be worth more weight. It's just from where I sit, 273 00:13:44.240 --> 00:13:47.840 it's very hard to judge the cash game stuff, you know. 274 00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:50.360 I mean I'm not in those games, don't I don't 275 00:13:50.399 --> 00:13:52.279 know about that sort of stuff, So it's difficult for 276 00:13:52.320 --> 00:13:54.200 me if you want to go on the tournament sort 277 00:13:54.240 --> 00:13:56.720 of stuff, which I think you know, again going back 278 00:13:56.720 --> 00:13:58.440 to Bill Simmons, what he does when it comes to 279 00:13:58.440 --> 00:13:59.960 the sports stuff, I mean a lot of it is 280 00:14:00.600 --> 00:14:03.399 stats at the end of the day, like you know that, 281 00:14:03.519 --> 00:14:04.960 Like it's this, this and this and then maybe if 282 00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:07.279 there's some sort of tie breaker, he says, well, he's 283 00:14:07.279 --> 00:14:10.720 got these intangibles. Sure, well, so that's how I I 284 00:14:10.799 --> 00:14:13.159 equate the thing. So I'm gonna say, yeah, top, I think. 285 00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:16.480 With basketball it's more of a fair playing field, right. 286 00:14:16.519 --> 00:14:18.399 The game hasn't changed that much now that the style 287 00:14:18.440 --> 00:14:20.080 of the game has changed, but if you look at poker, 288 00:14:20.639 --> 00:14:23.279 it's changed quite dramatically with the buyings, with the amount 289 00:14:23.279 --> 00:14:25.679 of tournaments you can play. So the way I kind 290 00:14:25.679 --> 00:14:29.039 of view it is, take a player, what's his specialty? Okay, 291 00:14:29.039 --> 00:14:31.799 it's tournaments. What has he won? Has he got a 292 00:14:31.919 --> 00:14:35.000 range of wins or a vast number of wins in 293 00:14:35.279 --> 00:14:37.240 you know, at a certain tour, So that's obviously feel 294 00:14:37.240 --> 00:14:40.000 helm with lots of WSP Then what else does he have? 295 00:14:40.720 --> 00:14:42.919 Is he a good cash game player? Is he like 296 00:14:43.000 --> 00:14:45.600 by people? Is he a good ambassador? You know? Does 297 00:14:45.639 --> 00:14:48.840 he do commentary. You know, does he do this and that? 298 00:14:48.960 --> 00:14:50.919 So I think you can also do that for cash 299 00:14:50.919 --> 00:14:53.399 game guys. Opie obviously big cash game guy. What else 300 00:14:53.399 --> 00:14:56.080 does he have there? It's obviously the peers think he's 301 00:14:56.360 --> 00:14:58.120 world class if they're going to vote him in anyway. 302 00:14:58.399 --> 00:15:01.799 But yeah, looking at the pyramid, he's definitely up there. 303 00:15:01.840 --> 00:15:06.440 It's just like Kenny. He this logjam of seven bracelet winners, right, 304 00:15:06.480 --> 00:15:09.080 you kind of mentioned he got Billy backs to Benny Glassa, 305 00:15:09.320 --> 00:15:13.840 John Hennigan, Tograno, man Ras shalman Seva. Who's going to 306 00:15:13.879 --> 00:15:17.360 break out of that to really like set themselves ahead? 307 00:15:17.360 --> 00:15:19.600 Now I would say Grano as well ahead. But the 308 00:15:19.639 --> 00:15:22.440 other guys, they need kind of one more to be okay, 309 00:15:22.879 --> 00:15:27.559 really contending, really pushing to challenge side l challenge you know, 310 00:15:27.720 --> 00:15:30.679 with Johnny chan Doel Bronson, all these guys. So I 311 00:15:30.679 --> 00:15:32.919 guess we'll see who can break out of that, you know, 312 00:15:33.000 --> 00:15:35.159 big seven way tie on seven bracelets. 313 00:15:35.200 --> 00:15:38.240 I think, I mean, here's here's what needs to happen. Well, first, 314 00:15:38.279 --> 00:15:40.320 before I get to that, let me say that one 315 00:15:40.360 --> 00:15:43.200 of the guys that you mentioned is like making my 316 00:15:43.440 --> 00:15:45.080 point of what I'm trying to say. So maybe I 317 00:15:45.120 --> 00:15:48.279 can articulate it through this example is that Benny Glauser 318 00:15:48.399 --> 00:15:52.720 has seven, Brian Rass has seven. To my knowledge, Brian 319 00:15:52.799 --> 00:15:55.639 Rash has more high stakes cash game success than Benny Glaser. 320 00:15:56.440 --> 00:16:00.360 So like, I'm thinking that, Okay, I slot in rast 321 00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:01.960 over Benny Glasser. 322 00:16:02.360 --> 00:16:06.440 Online poker right now in case nineteen million scoop titles though, 323 00:16:06.759 --> 00:16:08.240 because that I think has a factor in it. 324 00:16:08.320 --> 00:16:11.559 Sure of course. But but also okay, he's got that right. 325 00:16:12.879 --> 00:16:15.600 Rass has three fifty k PPC titles, which are what's 326 00:16:15.720 --> 00:16:21.279 what's like one fifty k PPC bracelet worth three regular titles? Okay, 327 00:16:21.519 --> 00:16:22.039 you know what I mean. 328 00:16:22.039 --> 00:16:26.440 It's like, no, no, no, not at all what one 329 00:16:26.559 --> 00:16:27.840 bracelet is with one bracelet? 330 00:16:27.879 --> 00:16:31.360 Stop, there's levels to this ship. Okay, let's just stop 331 00:16:31.399 --> 00:16:34.120 with that. I mean, come on, seriously, if one is one, 332 00:16:34.240 --> 00:16:37.679 come on, no stop Pennsylvania. Also, what I'm going to 333 00:16:37.720 --> 00:16:39.200 say is that you and I basically we need to 334 00:16:39.200 --> 00:16:42.440 come up with the the like the top one hundred, 335 00:16:43.039 --> 00:16:44.720 and we need to just constantly be adjusting. 336 00:16:44.799 --> 00:16:46.360 It seems like. 337 00:16:46.960 --> 00:16:48.639 That's a big that's a big Bill Simmons thing where 338 00:16:48.639 --> 00:16:51.519 he's like, okay, you know, if DJOK does this then 339 00:16:51.639 --> 00:16:53.519 he's going to be in the top ten. He's going 340 00:16:53.600 --> 00:16:55.600 to be in the top five challenge with like the 341 00:16:55.600 --> 00:16:58.399 Magic and those types of guys, you know. So that 342 00:16:58.399 --> 00:17:00.480 that's where I think we need to we need to 343 00:17:00.480 --> 00:17:03.759 make this list. What just looked up at domain that 344 00:17:03.919 --> 00:17:06.720 very expensive, so we're very expensible. I know what the 345 00:17:06.720 --> 00:17:08.400 domain should be, and you're obviously not going. 346 00:17:08.400 --> 00:17:11.079 To pick it. Oh we got we're thinking different routes here. 347 00:17:11.680 --> 00:17:15.079 No, I just know what the domain should be, all right. 348 00:17:15.240 --> 00:17:16.680 PGT update, What do you got for me? 349 00:17:17.160 --> 00:17:21.359 Brian Rath seventh cash of the season. He is in 350 00:17:21.440 --> 00:17:25.400 fiftieth place, four hundred and seventy two points. Javierre finished 351 00:17:25.519 --> 00:17:29.599 in fourth place, so he's having a pretty great world 352 00:17:29.599 --> 00:17:33.119 series of work. Five cashes so far in PGT qualifying events, 353 00:17:33.119 --> 00:17:37.000 he's twentieth overall, so seven fifty six points. He's about that, 354 00:17:37.519 --> 00:17:39.119 you know, right on that cast of what we think 355 00:17:39.160 --> 00:17:41.200 will fortieth or be. You know, we're talking eight hundred 356 00:17:41.240 --> 00:17:43.440 to nine hundred points. So he still might have to 357 00:17:43.519 --> 00:17:45.079 do a little bit more work if he wants to 358 00:17:45.119 --> 00:17:47.880 secure his seat in the pg two million dollars Championship. 359 00:17:47.920 --> 00:17:51.440 Daniel Nograno mean cash but had a little buffer between 360 00:17:51.519 --> 00:17:54.640 him and Chino. Also crept a little bit closer to 361 00:17:54.680 --> 00:17:57.880 Nick Shrman in second. So that's kind of the big 362 00:17:58.319 --> 00:18:01.119 not really big changes, but the changes that came out 363 00:18:01.119 --> 00:18:02.319 of the RAZ Championship. 364 00:18:02.799 --> 00:18:05.759 I was just reading through the recap on Poker News, 365 00:18:06.079 --> 00:18:10.160 Rass just mentioning gratitude a lot, you know, kind of 366 00:18:10.200 --> 00:18:13.000 his his mental fortitude here to stay strong throughout the battle. 367 00:18:13.599 --> 00:18:16.079 You know, he wasn't happy with how he played last year. 368 00:18:16.480 --> 00:18:18.039 Kind of he got heads up in the twenty five 369 00:18:18.119 --> 00:18:21.960 k poo yep so this year, and you know, the 370 00:18:22.000 --> 00:18:26.519 sentiment is that he's a bit happier than last year 371 00:18:26.559 --> 00:18:29.880 and ultimately came out on top.
