They took place yesterday in the 47 00:02:44.680 --> 00:02:47.879 day before Tuesday and Wednesday that are available on demand 48 00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:51.919 on poker Go. First game had Antonio s Fondii Sam 49 00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:56.560 Keekey headlining second one. Those two guys are back. Nick 50 00:02:56.599 --> 00:02:59.240 Wright gets into the mix. Nick Wright, who has now 51 00:02:59.240 --> 00:03:01.560 been announced at as the new co host of No 52 00:03:01.639 --> 00:03:04.439 Gamble in the Future. So there's that little nugget. Also, 53 00:03:04.960 --> 00:03:08.000 Nick writing Sam Keikey kind of going at it a 54 00:03:08.039 --> 00:03:10.599 little bit. I mean, I don't know, I feel like 55 00:03:12.120 --> 00:03:17.280 Keiki couldn't handle the heat. And you know, Nick. Nick's 56 00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:21.039 a sports media personality. He talks for a living, he's 57 00:03:21.039 --> 00:03:24.759 got takes for a living. He's certainly a bold person, 58 00:03:24.960 --> 00:03:28.199 not one to hold back. He's also got that kind 59 00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:32.039 of attitude where he's gonna dish it out, He's gonna 60 00:03:32.080 --> 00:03:34.560 talk shit like it's kind of all in good fun, right, 61 00:03:34.680 --> 00:03:39.439 But I think it was pretty quickly apparent that Kiki 62 00:03:39.479 --> 00:03:43.159 couldn't handle it. I mean, he just he honestly couldn't 63 00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:45.360 handle it, and and I feel like Nick kind of 64 00:03:46.360 --> 00:03:49.520 sensed it and jumped on the opportunity even more to 65 00:03:49.639 --> 00:03:52.199 just give it to him, and eventually Kiki kind of 66 00:03:52.240 --> 00:03:55.080 just took his ball and went home. Now he did 67 00:03:55.080 --> 00:03:58.319 say he had a flight anyway, sure, so you know, 68 00:03:58.479 --> 00:04:01.159 but I mean, I don't know, it was it was, 69 00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:03.520 it was very it was very very entertaining. I'm sure 70 00:04:03.560 --> 00:04:05.919 you guys saw some of the clips on social media. 71 00:04:06.000 --> 00:04:07.560 If you didn't check those out on the Poker gro 72 00:04:07.680 --> 00:04:11.240 social media channels. If not, go watch the episodes, especially 73 00:04:11.680 --> 00:04:15.439 Wednesday's episode, because it got it got pretty, uh pretty 74 00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:18.439 hot in that in that studio room with those guys, 75 00:04:18.480 --> 00:04:20.519 with those guys battling, and of course Antonio asked Fundier, 76 00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:22.160 he's in the middle of them, he's like egging it on. 77 00:04:22.279 --> 00:04:25.040 So just just a lot of fun there overall. But 78 00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:29.879 it's also very nice to have have Nick Wright joining 79 00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:33.000 No Gamble of the Future, filling the seats, filling the 80 00:04:33.079 --> 00:04:37.040 void of Jeff Platt, who's now gone see you later, Jeff, 81 00:04:37.079 --> 00:04:41.360 you know, you know dead to us. It wasn't too 82 00:04:41.360 --> 00:04:43.720 happy by the way, Jeff Platt on your uh you're 83 00:04:43.839 --> 00:04:45.519 saying that he wasn't gonna get into the Poker Hall 84 00:04:45.519 --> 00:04:45.759 of Fame. 85 00:04:45.839 --> 00:04:47.759 That was a may buddy, That was you. I led with, 86 00:04:47.879 --> 00:04:50.199 I lad with Jeff Platt lead. 87 00:04:51.639 --> 00:04:55.000 I would say Jeff is at. 88 00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:57.160 Least a step closer now, he's definitely a lot. 89 00:04:57.199 --> 00:04:59.839 I was gonna say many more steps closer then than 90 00:04:59.879 --> 00:05:04.120 he e asbid. He might be a favorite now I 91 00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:06.959 don't know just how wacky that thing is. Yeah, all right, 92 00:05:07.040 --> 00:05:09.759 let's get into the schedule here. The twenty twenty six 93 00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:15.160 BASITB schedule was announced earlier this week. One hundred gold 94 00:05:15.240 --> 00:05:19.120 Bracelet events of the live variety. We still don't know 95 00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:22.240 what's coming from the online variety. That always comes later. 96 00:05:22.560 --> 00:05:24.560 When that does get announced, Tim and I will hit 97 00:05:24.600 --> 00:05:28.000 on it. Everything kicks off on May twenty sixth. Very 98 00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:30.439 similar dates is going to run May twenty sixth through 99 00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:34.480 July fifteenth. I mentioned the one hundred live bracelet events. 100 00:05:34.519 --> 00:05:38.040 Another couple of nuggets here from the official news announcement. 101 00:05:38.399 --> 00:05:41.680 A daily free stream is going to start on May 102 00:05:41.720 --> 00:05:45.680 twenty sixth and run until the main event. They pointed 103 00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:48.399 out an improved TV set that is going to be 104 00:05:48.519 --> 00:05:52.160 in Paris Las Vegas, which the set before was actually 105 00:05:52.240 --> 00:05:55.240 in the Horseshoe side of things takes place at Horseshoe 106 00:05:55.279 --> 00:05:59.040 and Paris, but everything was on Horseshoe. Now they're moving 107 00:05:59.079 --> 00:06:01.759 it over to the Paris side, which is going to 108 00:06:01.800 --> 00:06:04.279 be interesting. I think it'll be better, yes, but it'll 109 00:06:04.319 --> 00:06:06.680 just be interesting. You know, people come in there expecting 110 00:06:06.680 --> 00:06:08.199 it to be one place because it has been that 111 00:06:08.199 --> 00:06:10.399 place for a couple of years and now switched. And 112 00:06:10.480 --> 00:06:13.160 then the other thing is that the WAB main event 113 00:06:13.160 --> 00:06:16.959 final table is going to be delayed, although they didn't 114 00:06:17.000 --> 00:06:21.040 really give too many details about it, so we don't. 115 00:06:21.160 --> 00:06:23.120 The only thing we know from the news release is 116 00:06:23.160 --> 00:06:25.680 that they're gonna set the final table the final nine 117 00:06:26.279 --> 00:06:28.879 on July thirteenth, and it was kind of just left 118 00:06:28.920 --> 00:06:30.959 like that's it, but come back at a later date. 119 00:06:31.079 --> 00:06:32.120 We don't know that later date. 120 00:06:32.199 --> 00:06:34.279 We don't know if it'll be three days they say none. 121 00:06:34.600 --> 00:06:36.959 I think they said play down to the final table, didn't. 122 00:06:36.759 --> 00:06:39.279 Because I mean, you know what, The August eighth has 123 00:06:39.319 --> 00:06:40.839 a nice little uh ring to it. 124 00:06:42.199 --> 00:06:44.439 I'm gonna say it's gonna still happen in July me 125 00:06:44.560 --> 00:06:50.279 personally not August. But you know, we can get we 126 00:06:50.319 --> 00:06:53.240 can get into that, so we'll hit on that topic 127 00:06:53.279 --> 00:06:55.959 as well. I guess let let's just start there, you know. 128 00:06:56.079 --> 00:06:59.040 I feel like that's that's probably the biggest story to 129 00:06:59.079 --> 00:07:03.079 come out of this, is that the main event, Final Table, 130 00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:08.240 is being quote unquote delayed. I'm doing quotation marks for 131 00:07:08.279 --> 00:07:12.120 those that are listening just because, yeah, because we don't 132 00:07:12.120 --> 00:07:18.879 have the information. My guess is it's gonna take place. 133 00:07:20.319 --> 00:07:22.160 On July. 134 00:07:23.560 --> 00:07:27.360 I need to pull up my calendar. Actually, July, where 135 00:07:27.360 --> 00:07:34.360 are we looking? Twenty fifth is my guess, although I 136 00:07:34.360 --> 00:07:36.519 think that's a bad day to start it. But and 137 00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:39.639 my reasoning is that, isn't there this weird circuit thing 138 00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:40.639 that's announce. 139 00:07:40.680 --> 00:07:42.920 That which ends on July twenty fifth. 140 00:07:44.000 --> 00:07:46.360 Okay, so then maybe it'll take place the next sixth 141 00:07:46.439 --> 00:07:46.839 day after. 142 00:07:47.040 --> 00:07:47.319 Yeah. 143 00:07:48.199 --> 00:07:50.240 I feel like that is put in there to bridge 144 00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:53.240 the gap between the two. I don't really know what 145 00:07:53.879 --> 00:07:56.959 gap you're bridging. I guess just to keep poker fans 146 00:07:57.000 --> 00:08:02.360 around in Las Vegas. I personally think that the the 147 00:08:02.439 --> 00:08:06.959 November nine concept, and it doesn't necessarily have to be November, 148 00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:09.360 but that's the name we of course gave it when 149 00:08:09.360 --> 00:08:12.519 it was first announced. But just the concept of delaying 150 00:08:12.519 --> 00:08:16.120 the Final Table to a later date by more than 151 00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:18.439 just a day because they have had that day off, right, 152 00:08:18.600 --> 00:08:21.519 I think. I think delaying it to a final date 153 00:08:21.600 --> 00:08:26.240 that's greater than a week is a good thing in 154 00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:30.319 theory and just needs to be executed better. The one 155 00:08:30.439 --> 00:08:33.360 part of the execution that I think worked when it 156 00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:37.720 was done is that you could you could relocate the 157 00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:41.480 stage to a larger theater and each Final Table member 158 00:08:41.840 --> 00:08:45.600 can have a large group of supporters there, which I 159 00:08:45.639 --> 00:08:49.360 thought that atmosphere was amazing when it happened, both being 160 00:08:49.399 --> 00:08:51.720 there in person for some of those and also I 161 00:08:51.759 --> 00:08:55.200 feel like that came through much better on the broadcast. 162 00:08:56.000 --> 00:09:00.399 I just felt like things were much more condensed when 163 00:09:00.440 --> 00:09:02.440 you were just keeping it on the stage. Not that 164 00:09:02.480 --> 00:09:06.120 the atmospheres weren't pretty electric, they just weren't as grand. 165 00:09:06.679 --> 00:09:09.080 And I want this thing to be as grand as possible. 166 00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:12.639 Part of being as grand as possible is, you know, 167 00:09:13.639 --> 00:09:18.000 I think bridging that gap in the time with additional 168 00:09:18.039 --> 00:09:21.799 media coverage is a very good thing. You just you 169 00:09:21.840 --> 00:09:24.840 really have to work at that. So let's see. Is 170 00:09:24.879 --> 00:09:28.000 it just going to be something where final table gets set, 171 00:09:28.360 --> 00:09:31.240 it gets announced, they say, okay, it's going to happen 172 00:09:31.320 --> 00:09:34.799 on this date, and then we don't hear much from 173 00:09:34.840 --> 00:09:37.200 these players, from media whatever. I mean. I remember when 174 00:09:37.240 --> 00:09:39.200 the member nine was first announced that we were floating 175 00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:42.159 around crazy ideas like we can get the chip leader 176 00:09:42.200 --> 00:09:45.039 on late night talk shows and like this, that and 177 00:09:45.080 --> 00:09:47.840 the other thing. And I don't think that. I think 178 00:09:47.840 --> 00:09:50.279 that that's, you know, too much of a of a 179 00:09:50.879 --> 00:09:54.200 pipe dream to ever happen. But you could do other things, 180 00:09:54.559 --> 00:09:56.840 you know, you could you could run them through the 181 00:09:56.840 --> 00:09:59.120 car washing in other ways, you know, and maybe you 182 00:09:59.159 --> 00:10:03.480 work with your broadcast partner to do that. I would 183 00:10:03.480 --> 00:10:05.240 love for that to happen. I think that that's ultimately 184 00:10:05.279 --> 00:10:06.720 going to be a good thing for poker, but it's 185 00:10:06.720 --> 00:10:09.240 going to take a lot of resources behind it. So 186 00:10:09.399 --> 00:10:12.120 I guess TBD on that front. But I like the 187 00:10:12.120 --> 00:10:13.240 fact that you do delay it. 188 00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:16.639 Yeah, I mean, it's not going to matter how many 189 00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:18.799 days it is, right, if we're talking three or four days, 190 00:10:18.919 --> 00:10:20.960 we kind of do much in there. We're talking a 191 00:10:20.960 --> 00:10:23.600 week to ten days something like that. I think that's Okay, 192 00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:27.960 I'm assuming that what GG and WSP are doing with 193 00:10:28.000 --> 00:10:30.720 this is a like you said, probably, hey, we're going 194 00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:32.679 to fiddle with the set. We're going to make it 195 00:10:32.720 --> 00:10:35.519 bigger and grand and make it a really big TV production. 196 00:10:35.639 --> 00:10:38.440 But also I'm assuming they're going to have some stuff 197 00:10:38.480 --> 00:10:42.039 lined up for these players, you know, you know, media 198 00:10:42.159 --> 00:10:46.879 days and other kind of events to highlight you know, 199 00:10:47.000 --> 00:10:51.720 the players leading into you know, the conclusion of the 200 00:10:51.759 --> 00:10:52.440 final table. 201 00:10:52.519 --> 00:10:54.120 So yeah, you know we're going to know the date. 202 00:10:54.519 --> 00:10:56.480 I think we will have to know the day before 203 00:10:56.840 --> 00:10:59.600 the World Series starts, right, Obviously you have to do 204 00:10:59.600 --> 00:11:02.080 it before the main event. But I feel like, you know, 205 00:11:02.879 --> 00:11:06.360 GG ANDWSP dot com are probably starting online satellites soon. 206 00:11:07.000 --> 00:11:09.799 You probably want to have that day kind of locked 207 00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:13.840 in confirmed as quickly as you can, and then, you know, 208 00:11:14.279 --> 00:11:15.720 makes it a lot easier for people to say, hey, 209 00:11:15.759 --> 00:11:17.000 I'm going to play this satellite or not. 210 00:11:17.600 --> 00:11:17.840 Yeah. 211 00:11:17.879 --> 00:11:20.679 Sure, I mean I think it's not necessarily that big 212 00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:22.799 of a deal to announce that date. I mean, obviously 213 00:11:22.799 --> 00:11:26.080 sooner rather than later, yes, But I don't think it's 214 00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:29.480 a necessity to start it to announce it like in 215 00:11:29.519 --> 00:11:31.320 the next week or something. I would say you definitely 216 00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:34.759 just wanted out before the Doabasity starts and then or 217 00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:37.399 maybe you know, you kind of do an announcement during 218 00:11:37.440 --> 00:11:38.759 the first days of Dobysity. 219 00:11:38.799 --> 00:11:42.519 Maybe that's yeah, that would work to I'm interested with 220 00:11:42.600 --> 00:11:46.120 the new set relocating to Paris. I think you know, 221 00:11:46.159 --> 00:11:48.879 we spend a lot of time at the Horseshoe on 222 00:11:48.960 --> 00:11:50.960 those feature tables. We've spent a lot of time walking 223 00:11:51.000 --> 00:11:54.000 to Paris, and the big difference is Horseshoe gets very 224 00:11:54.039 --> 00:11:56.320 hot once you're add in all those LED lights. 225 00:11:56.480 --> 00:11:58.879 It's a very warm venue. We've had players. 226 00:11:58.519 --> 00:12:01.279 Asks for air conditioners and all kinds of things when 227 00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:04.039 you go to Paris. You know some of those spots, 228 00:12:04.120 --> 00:12:06.240 you know, that far top right spot that we would 229 00:12:06.240 --> 00:12:09.440 walk through sometimes freezing cold, like the tundra. You got 230 00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:12.759 people in blankets and hoodies and everything. So you know, 231 00:12:12.919 --> 00:12:15.039 moving the final table there. You know, this is probably 232 00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:17.000 not even part of the plan, but you know, these 233 00:12:17.000 --> 00:12:19.919 final tables that get super hot due to those early 234 00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:22.639 d lights probably gonna get a little bit of a reprieve, 235 00:12:22.840 --> 00:12:25.799 which is probably a good thing that they no one's 236 00:12:25.799 --> 00:12:26.440 really planned for. 237 00:12:28.159 --> 00:12:30.200 Yeah, sure, I mean I like at the colder, the 238 00:12:30.200 --> 00:12:34.240 better so yeah, you're a weirdo. I mean, listen, you 239 00:12:34.240 --> 00:12:36.399 can always bundle up. You can only take so many 240 00:12:36.399 --> 00:12:36.960 clothes off. 241 00:12:37.159 --> 00:12:39.639 Yeah, that is true. And the one other thing I 242 00:12:39.679 --> 00:12:43.039 want to kind of the language they touched on. You know, 243 00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:45.559 they say like daily freeze stream from May twenty sixth 244 00:12:45.639 --> 00:12:48.360 until the main event. So the two things I see 245 00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:52.519 with that is, Okay, what's happening with the main event broadcast? 246 00:12:52.600 --> 00:12:54.759 What are they planning there? Because I feel like they 247 00:12:54.799 --> 00:12:57.159 would have just said, you know, daily free stream entire 248 00:12:57.200 --> 00:13:00.240 world series. And also they don't really mention, you know, 249 00:13:01.159 --> 00:13:04.039 poker play. They say free stream, and we've heard all 250 00:13:04.120 --> 00:13:08.399 kinds of things about breakdosk shows and daily shows, so 251 00:13:08.519 --> 00:13:12.159 maybe you know, we're going to see you know, them 252 00:13:12.200 --> 00:13:15.759 being very selective with what they're streaming, or you know, 253 00:13:15.919 --> 00:13:17.679 maybe that was just the language they chose. They're going 254 00:13:17.720 --> 00:13:20.960 to be all in with multiple final tables every day, 255 00:13:21.600 --> 00:13:23.279 so a lot of that is still kind of TVD 256 00:13:23.519 --> 00:13:26.519 and it would be interesting to see kind of what 257 00:13:26.600 --> 00:13:29.080 they outline live stream wise. 258 00:13:30.240 --> 00:13:33.919 Yeah, that is interesting. I didn't really read too much 259 00:13:33.960 --> 00:13:37.279 into that phrasing that you mentioned, but now that you 260 00:13:37.320 --> 00:13:41.720 pointed out, it is interesting because it does say a 261 00:13:41.879 --> 00:13:44.679 daily stream will be broadcast live on the official Diversity 262 00:13:44.720 --> 00:13:47.879 YouTube channel from May twenty six through to the start 263 00:13:48.320 --> 00:13:51.039 of the mean event. Yeah, that's so, that's that's an 264 00:13:51.080 --> 00:13:54.919 interesting way to phrase that. So what happens during the 265 00:13:54.960 --> 00:13:57.279 main event is, you know, it's likely and you're. 266 00:13:57.120 --> 00:13:58.799 Going to assume that if they're going to do a delay, 267 00:13:59.080 --> 00:14:00.720 it's probably got to do a lot with you know, 268 00:14:00.759 --> 00:14:03.799 the production, the distribution, and they're probably all going to 269 00:14:03.799 --> 00:14:06.120 tie that, like you said, into one more big announcement, 270 00:14:06.720 --> 00:14:09.519 you know, keep that. You know, we obviously have WSP 271 00:14:09.639 --> 00:14:12.360 Europe in Prague coming up in a couple of months 272 00:14:13.000 --> 00:14:14.919 where you know they want to Obviously this month is 273 00:14:14.919 --> 00:14:17.600 going to be dominated by WSP talk. It's going to 274 00:14:17.600 --> 00:14:19.399 fade a little bit in March, pick back up in 275 00:14:19.440 --> 00:14:22.039 April and then May. Everyone's getting ready, so maybe they're 276 00:14:22.039 --> 00:14:25.080 planning the announcement you know, March. Keep it's like kind 277 00:14:25.080 --> 00:14:27.840 of the NFL, how they're literally the talk of the 278 00:14:27.879 --> 00:14:30.759 news cycle the whole year round. You know, it's very 279 00:14:30.799 --> 00:14:32.960 smart for WSP to try and do the same thing 280 00:14:33.000 --> 00:14:36.080 and really dominate the poker news landscape, and you know, 281 00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:37.679 this is one way they can do it. You know, 282 00:14:37.759 --> 00:14:40.440 that like how they teased everyone last week on Friday 283 00:14:40.480 --> 00:14:44.159 with the the announcement of the announcement, right, and then 284 00:14:44.159 --> 00:14:46.159 they have the announcement on Monday. Then they've oh, there's 285 00:14:46.159 --> 00:14:49.200 still more to go, maybe two more weeks. We hear, oh, 286 00:14:49.600 --> 00:14:52.480 next week, we're announcing when the final table is. So 287 00:14:52.519 --> 00:14:56.200 you kind of can keep wsp like kind of at 288 00:14:56.200 --> 00:14:59.919 the top of everybody's you know, timeline for as long as. 289 00:14:59.799 --> 00:15:05.679 P All right, let's get into some of the additions 290 00:15:05.679 --> 00:15:10.720 and subtractions that happened on this year's schedule. Once again, 291 00:15:10.879 --> 00:15:16.840 one hundred Live Gold Bracelet events have been announced. So 292 00:15:17.120 --> 00:15:20.799 the events that are new this year for twenty twenty six, 293 00:15:20.919 --> 00:15:24.519 we have the five hundred and fifty dollars Mystery Many 294 00:15:24.679 --> 00:15:30.279 Mystery Millions with a mystery bounty top prize, a top 295 00:15:30.320 --> 00:15:34.080 bounty prize of one million dollars. So and that's actually 296 00:15:34.080 --> 00:15:36.960 going to kick off the series, whereas last year kicking 297 00:15:37.000 --> 00:15:39.279 off the series in terms of like your Big Field 298 00:15:39.519 --> 00:15:43.600 Open event was the one thousand dollars Buying Mystery Millions tournament. 299 00:15:44.080 --> 00:15:47.000 That tournament is still on the schedule, it's just shifted 300 00:15:47.039 --> 00:15:49.919 to a later time period, right, And then they have 301 00:15:50.080 --> 00:15:54.840 this five hundred and fifty mini mystery millions to kick 302 00:15:54.879 --> 00:15:58.759 things off many. To me, I don't agree that it's many. 303 00:15:59.240 --> 00:16:01.120 If it's only half, I think you need to go 304 00:16:01.200 --> 00:16:05.200 three hundred or lower. But you know whatever, it's gonna 305 00:16:05.200 --> 00:16:07.679 be interesting to see how big that one gets. I mean, 306 00:16:07.679 --> 00:16:09.799 a five hundred and fifty dollars buy in is just 307 00:16:11.879 --> 00:16:14.039 I mean, that's going to track to everyone, right, So 308 00:16:14.759 --> 00:16:17.600 let's see how big this one gets. Obviously, dangling a nice, 309 00:16:17.600 --> 00:16:20.320 big fat carrot in front of everyone with that one 310 00:16:20.360 --> 00:16:25.519 million dollar guaranteed top bounty prize. I'm personally not a 311 00:16:25.559 --> 00:16:29.240 fan of playing mystery bounties. It's just me, you know. 312 00:16:29.360 --> 00:16:31.360 I don't like to I don't like to have a 313 00:16:31.480 --> 00:16:34.960 large portion of the prize pool taken out and basically 314 00:16:34.960 --> 00:16:38.720 thrown into this lottery over here. But I understand their 315 00:16:38.799 --> 00:16:41.360 place in poker, and I do agree that operators should 316 00:16:41.399 --> 00:16:46.120 certainly have them on their schedule because the masses love 317 00:16:46.200 --> 00:16:49.039 these damn things, absolutely love them. So I would expect 318 00:16:49.039 --> 00:16:51.799 this thing to be freaking enormous, and if there's an 319 00:16:51.840 --> 00:16:53.759 event on the schedule, it has a chance of, you know, 320 00:16:53.799 --> 00:16:57.919 setting a record in terms of largest ever live poker tournament. 321 00:16:58.039 --> 00:17:01.879 It's this one. I don't know if it will, but 322 00:17:02.279 --> 00:17:03.120 you know, we'll see. 323 00:17:03.320 --> 00:17:06.720 Of course, it's definitely, you know, it definitely has a 324 00:17:06.720 --> 00:17:11.839 shot to kind of flirt with becoming the biggest you know, 325 00:17:11.960 --> 00:17:16.200 live field. I think where it was at twenty twenty nineteen, 326 00:17:16.400 --> 00:17:20.480 the five hundred, big fifty twenty eight thousand players in that. 327 00:17:20.839 --> 00:17:25.440 So you know, it's not can't rule it out, right. 328 00:17:26.039 --> 00:17:28.680 I mean, of course you can't rule it out. So 329 00:17:29.000 --> 00:17:29.799 I mean, we'll see. 330 00:17:31.279 --> 00:17:33.680 Guess what is the closest, Like I guess the closest 331 00:17:33.680 --> 00:17:37.319 thing recently would be probably, you know, with the one 332 00:17:37.440 --> 00:17:41.519 K Mistery millions in twenty. 333 00:17:40.119 --> 00:17:42.359 It's a pattern you're talking about size. 334 00:17:42.839 --> 00:17:45.960 Yeah, I'm saying in twenty twenty four the ONEK mistry millions, 335 00:17:46.440 --> 00:17:49.319 the you know, had eighteen thousand. Last year it had 336 00:17:49.440 --> 00:17:52.599 nineteen thousand and change. Obviously, so you're going to have 337 00:17:52.640 --> 00:17:56.240 to buy in still big prizes, you know, I think 338 00:17:56.240 --> 00:18:02.039 we I think we can probably safely say over twenty thousand, right, yeah, 339 00:18:02.039 --> 00:18:04.519 I would say five six starting flights. 340 00:18:04.759 --> 00:18:10.839 I would say this one gets over twenty thousand. I mean, 341 00:18:11.279 --> 00:18:13.799 I feel like it's hard not to right. 342 00:18:13.680 --> 00:18:16.480 I feel like with you know, the six starting flights. 343 00:18:16.680 --> 00:18:18.720 Kicking off the World Series with this, I think we 344 00:18:18.839 --> 00:18:19.599 break that record. 345 00:18:21.200 --> 00:18:24.400 Do you think to break the record? Yeah, I mean 346 00:18:24.559 --> 00:18:29.359 that's hot. Take that seems insane to break the record. 347 00:18:29.799 --> 00:18:31.559 Yeah, we're gonna do it. 348 00:18:32.160 --> 00:18:36.880 Twenty eight three hundred and seventy one is the record. 349 00:18:36.880 --> 00:18:39.759 That's from the Big fifty. I don't I don't know 350 00:18:39.759 --> 00:18:42.480 if we'll get that, man, I don't know that. That's 351 00:18:42.680 --> 00:18:43.319 just slot. 352 00:18:43.720 --> 00:18:46.920 The largest flight, okay for a five hundred dollar buying 353 00:18:46.920 --> 00:18:50.880 the World Series had was twenty nineteen. Okay, we had 354 00:18:50.920 --> 00:18:53.519 a nine thousand and a seven thousand for a five 355 00:18:53.559 --> 00:18:58.880 hundred buying. I've got six flights of these. All we 356 00:18:58.920 --> 00:19:03.319 need is, you know, three of those and two extra flights. 357 00:19:04.079 --> 00:19:06.039 What's the re entry rules on this this thing? 358 00:19:07.119 --> 00:19:09.839 The big question is also when is the do you 359 00:19:09.880 --> 00:19:11.559 get paid on that day? If you get paid on 360 00:19:11.599 --> 00:19:15.839 that day, that will definitely make it more likely to happen. 361 00:19:15.960 --> 00:19:17.920 Two re entries per flight. 362 00:19:18.720 --> 00:19:19.559 What do you play down to? 363 00:19:21.400 --> 00:19:24.400 I mean, you're making me look up structures now. 364 00:19:24.599 --> 00:19:25.519 Well, I thought you had it up. 365 00:19:25.880 --> 00:19:28.359 No, I had the main schedule page up, but I 366 00:19:28.400 --> 00:19:29.240 have the thing up now. 367 00:19:29.359 --> 00:19:32.240 Because if you can cash and cash and then buying 368 00:19:32.279 --> 00:19:34.640 the next day. 369 00:19:35.400 --> 00:19:37.559 It's a luck. Twenty eight thousands a luck. 370 00:19:38.759 --> 00:19:40.759 Yeah, standard payouts start on day one. 371 00:19:41.440 --> 00:19:43.759 Yeah, so they probably play down a five percent, so 372 00:19:44.599 --> 00:19:46.480 you know, anywhere between seven and a half and well, 373 00:19:46.480 --> 00:19:47.400 it just. 374 00:19:47.039 --> 00:19:49.440 Just says no, it actually says day one is play 375 00:19:49.480 --> 00:19:51.119 twenty two levels. 376 00:19:51.880 --> 00:19:53.920 So it's similar to what they did last year, where. 377 00:19:53.759 --> 00:19:57.240 You'll get to the fifteen thousand and thirty thousand level. 378 00:19:57.400 --> 00:19:59.480 So normally I think you're in the money for a 379 00:19:59.519 --> 00:20:03.440 couple of levels, which will help the chance of us, 380 00:20:03.839 --> 00:20:05.640 you know, heating that twenty eight thousand numbers. 381 00:20:07.240 --> 00:20:10.880 Yeah, of course, I mean this is you know, it's 382 00:20:10.920 --> 00:20:12.880 going to be crazy to start things off, of course, 383 00:20:13.000 --> 00:20:14.880 you know, but I mean this is the way you 384 00:20:14.920 --> 00:20:17.480 should kick off the World Series. Every year, was there 385 00:20:17.519 --> 00:20:21.039 sort of a massive field tournament? Shout out massive all right. 386 00:20:21.519 --> 00:20:25.160 We also have the ten k GG millions. Nolan would 387 00:20:25.160 --> 00:20:28.440 hold them high Roller as event number eleven on the schedule. 388 00:20:29.200 --> 00:20:32.119 Ten thousand dollars buy in there. Two starting flights. 389 00:20:32.640 --> 00:20:32.880 Two. 390 00:20:33.000 --> 00:20:35.759 Now you're gonna notice that this is a theme for 391 00:20:35.880 --> 00:20:40.200 some of these events. Additional starting flights, notably in a 392 00:20:40.319 --> 00:20:42.599 in a handful of these high rollers, where they went 393 00:20:42.640 --> 00:20:46.240 to two starting flights. Event number sixteen is the seventeen 394 00:20:46.640 --> 00:20:53.160 dollars US Circuit Championship, which is a tournament that I'm 395 00:20:53.200 --> 00:21:01.200 not sure I understand. Like, so I first see this 396 00:21:01.279 --> 00:21:03.759 and I see, okay, it's called DOWSIP event number sixteen, 397 00:21:03.880 --> 00:21:09.759 seventeen dollars Nolan maan HoldEm USSIP Circuit Championship. If it's 398 00:21:09.759 --> 00:21:12.319 an official divisipy event with a number, then that tells 399 00:21:12.359 --> 00:21:14.079 me it's a bracelet event. 400 00:21:14.160 --> 00:21:16.279 Correct, Yes, that's what I'm assuming. 401 00:21:16.400 --> 00:21:22.160
