18
00:01:24.680 --> 00:01:27.480
<v Speaker 1>the story as we run through it. Some took place

19
00:01:27.760 --> 00:01:29.760
<v Speaker 1>at the end of the day after the players reached

20
00:01:29.799 --> 00:01:32.400

34
00:02:20.759 --> 00:02:23.400
<v Speaker 1>of Poker Main Event. I said twenty one players entered,

35
00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:27.800
<v Speaker 1>and they did, but only nine of them remained at

36
00:02:27.800 --> 00:02:32.240
<v Speaker 1>the end of it all. The youngster Lucas Jumalan, he

37
00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:37.120
<v Speaker 1>had himself a day. He has a massive shout out,

38
00:02:37.240 --> 00:02:40.960
<v Speaker 1>massive chip lead entering what I guess some people are

39
00:02:40.960 --> 00:02:42.960
<v Speaker 1>calling the August Nine. I kind of hate that name.

40
00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:44.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to call it that. Let's just call

41
00:02:44.439 --> 00:02:47.400
<v Speaker 1>it the Final Table. The Final Nine now have a

42
00:02:47.439 --> 00:02:50.759
<v Speaker 1>few weeks off before they return to play on August.

43
00:02:50.919 --> 00:02:55.360
<v Speaker 1>Third down at the Horseshoe in Las Vegas. The main

44
00:02:55.360 --> 00:02:57.319
<v Speaker 1>event took place, or at least the bulk of it

45
00:02:57.319 --> 00:03:00.719
<v Speaker 1>took place on these latter days. At Paris. They are

46
00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:04.360
<v Speaker 1>currently breaking down the set, the production team, the team

47
00:03:04.360 --> 00:03:05.280
<v Speaker 1>at B fifty two.

48
00:03:05.319 --> 00:03:05.800
<v Speaker 2>All of that.

49
00:03:06.479 --> 00:03:11.159
<v Speaker 1>As I was leaving Paris earlier in the evening, they

50
00:03:11.400 --> 00:03:14.199
<v Speaker 1>were breaking everything down and getting everything ready to move

51
00:03:14.240 --> 00:03:16.960
<v Speaker 1>it over to the Horseshoe side. They're gonna set it

52
00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:19.319
<v Speaker 1>all back up. Players are going to come back on

53
00:03:19.360 --> 00:03:22.759
<v Speaker 1>August third. August third, fourth, and fifth is when the

54
00:03:22.800 --> 00:03:26.800
<v Speaker 1>final table is going to play out. Entering the day,

55
00:03:27.360 --> 00:03:32.120
<v Speaker 1>Malcolm Trainor, the young upcoming Ozzie who has been absolutely

56
00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:35.280
<v Speaker 1>lighting the poker world on fire for the past two years,

57
00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:38.280
<v Speaker 1>he came in with the chip lead and let's just

58
00:03:38.319 --> 00:03:41.159
<v Speaker 1>start things right there. Because Remco caught up with Malcolm

59
00:03:41.240 --> 00:03:44.439
<v Speaker 1>Trainor early on to talk about having the chip lead

60
00:03:44.599 --> 00:03:47.639
<v Speaker 1>in this spot, his approach, how he's gonna go about it.

61
00:03:47.879 --> 00:03:50.319
<v Speaker 1>So let's hear from Malcolm Trainer right now.

62
00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:54.039
<v Speaker 3>And Malcolm, what's it like to have all eyes of

63
00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:55.280
<v Speaker 3>the poker world on you right now?

64
00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:57.639
<v Speaker 4>It's amazing. Yeah, I'm very blessed.

65
00:03:57.680 --> 00:04:00.840
<v Speaker 5>A lot of Australia is like, my message is absolutely flooded,

66
00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:03.479
<v Speaker 5>hundreds of messages. I can't believe it when I want

67
00:04:03.479 --> 00:04:04.800
<v Speaker 5>to brace it. In twenty twenty four, I had a

68
00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:06.800
<v Speaker 5>lot of messages, but this is just the next level,

69
00:04:07.159 --> 00:04:08.240
<v Speaker 5>so it's unbelievable.

70
00:04:08.719 --> 00:04:10.319
<v Speaker 2>Is the experience also next level?

71
00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:12.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

72
00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:16.439
<v Speaker 5>It's much more significant than the last Bracelet run and

73
00:04:17.079 --> 00:04:20.360
<v Speaker 5>the vibe of everything, the chanting going on. It's really

74
00:04:20.360 --> 00:04:22.160
<v Speaker 5>a different experience and I'm just trying to soak it

75
00:04:22.199 --> 00:04:24.240
<v Speaker 5>all in and I enjoy it while I can't.

76
00:04:25.079 --> 00:04:27.000
<v Speaker 2>What makes you ready for this moment?

77
00:04:27.839 --> 00:04:29.199
<v Speaker 4>I mean my experience in the past.

78
00:04:29.600 --> 00:04:32.279
<v Speaker 5>I've played a lot of online tournaments, so I feel

79
00:04:32.279 --> 00:04:34.560
<v Speaker 5>like I have a lot more experience than most people do,

80
00:04:34.839 --> 00:04:35.720
<v Speaker 5>even if they're older.

81
00:04:36.120 --> 00:04:37.439
<v Speaker 4>I feel like I've put in the volume.

82
00:04:37.639 --> 00:04:39.399
<v Speaker 5>I've also been in a lot of deep runs for

83
00:04:39.600 --> 00:04:42.079
<v Speaker 5>a million up top many times before.

84
00:04:42.560 --> 00:04:44.600
<v Speaker 4>So there'll be some people out there with more experience,

85
00:04:44.680 --> 00:04:45.800
<v Speaker 4>like Ensign, who has you know.

86
00:04:45.879 --> 00:04:48.160
<v Speaker 5>Played with ten miler the top, But I feel like,

87
00:04:48.199 --> 00:04:50.199
<v Speaker 5>you know, I'm one of the top three or four

88
00:04:50.240 --> 00:04:52.639
<v Speaker 5>people who have played, you know, the most money.

89
00:04:52.639 --> 00:04:53.000
<v Speaker 6>I guess.

90
00:04:53.480 --> 00:04:55.720
<v Speaker 3>As far as what's coming now, this final phase to

91
00:04:55.800 --> 00:04:58.199
<v Speaker 3>the final table. Yeah, what's your approach and how do

92
00:04:58.240 --> 00:04:59.240
<v Speaker 3>you think it's going to play out?

93
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:02.600
<v Speaker 4>It's really hard to say. I'm just gonna play my game.

94
00:05:03.399 --> 00:05:07.240
<v Speaker 5>I'm gonna I don't want to leak too much strategy

95
00:05:07.319 --> 00:05:09.319
<v Speaker 5>is the thing. I don't want to leak too much strategy.

96
00:05:09.639 --> 00:05:11.519
<v Speaker 5>But yeah, I'm just gonna keep doing what I've been

97
00:05:11.519 --> 00:05:15.680
<v Speaker 5>doing as the chip leader. I won't be doing many

98
00:05:15.720 --> 00:05:17.720
<v Speaker 5>two out of line things, but I'll just try and be.

99
00:05:17.680 --> 00:05:21.199
<v Speaker 4>Aggressive and I'll try and you know, I always like

100
00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:23.519
<v Speaker 4>trying to make people sweat, but I'm making people sweat.

101
00:05:23.519 --> 00:05:24.399
<v Speaker 4>I'm doing something a right.

102
00:05:24.839 --> 00:05:27.000
<v Speaker 3>Final question, what's it like to be Chippler in the

103
00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:28.920
<v Speaker 3>main on the eight unbelievable.

104
00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:30.319
<v Speaker 4>It hasn't really sunk in yet.

105
00:05:31.120 --> 00:05:33.040
<v Speaker 5>I'm just kind of just treating it, trying to keep

106
00:05:33.079 --> 00:05:35.000
<v Speaker 5>it like a regular pokesord it in my head, while

107
00:05:35.040 --> 00:05:37.680
<v Speaker 5>at the same time it's like an awesome experience, but

108
00:05:37.720 --> 00:05:39.759
<v Speaker 5>I'm just trying to like keep that mental.

109
00:05:40.959 --> 00:05:41.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah level.

110
00:05:43.240 --> 00:05:47.720
<v Speaker 1>So that was Malcolm Trainer. I love to hear that

111
00:05:47.839 --> 00:05:50.240
<v Speaker 1>sort of approach, you know, that sort of mentality from

112
00:05:50.240 --> 00:05:52.560
<v Speaker 1>the kid. He's only twenty six years old, but you

113
00:05:52.560 --> 00:05:58.560
<v Speaker 1>can just tell that he's a very thoughtful, insightful, intelligent

114
00:05:59.040 --> 00:06:02.480
<v Speaker 1>person and that obviously translates to his play. I think

115
00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:06.319
<v Speaker 1>Malcolm Tranner has played extremely well throughout this tournament. Of course,

116
00:06:06.399 --> 00:06:09.720
<v Speaker 1>yes he got lucky in some spots, but that's tournament poker.

117
00:06:09.759 --> 00:06:11.560
<v Speaker 1>You have to get lucky in some spots and it

118
00:06:11.600 --> 00:06:14.040
<v Speaker 1>does help when you push the envelope as the aggressor

119
00:06:14.439 --> 00:06:18.079
<v Speaker 1>and you're able to take those shots. So he's the

120
00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:20.319
<v Speaker 1>chip leader coming into today. And of course we have

121
00:06:20.360 --> 00:06:22.519
<v Speaker 1>talked about it in the past that that doesn't necessarily

122
00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:24.560
<v Speaker 1>guarantee you anything. And I did say on the last

123
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:27.920
<v Speaker 1>episode that I thought Malcolm Trainor was gonna make it

124
00:06:27.959 --> 00:06:31.120
<v Speaker 1>to this final table. Well, you know, hate to break

125
00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:33.839
<v Speaker 1>it to you guys, but spoiler alert, he didn't. But

126
00:06:34.040 --> 00:06:37.319
<v Speaker 1>we'll get into what happened and where he fell as

127
00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:40.959
<v Speaker 1>we go on. But things started with a bang on

128
00:06:41.439 --> 00:06:45.439
<v Speaker 1>day eight on the first hand delt Or at their table,

129
00:06:45.519 --> 00:06:52.079
<v Speaker 1>Finland's Laurie Shascalatti doubled, he jammed or sorry, he three

130
00:06:52.160 --> 00:06:56.680
<v Speaker 1>bets from the Big Blind versus Lucas Jumalan's open on

131
00:06:56.759 --> 00:07:00.240
<v Speaker 1>the button. Jumlan had king four of clubs saske he

132
00:07:00.279 --> 00:07:02.759
<v Speaker 1>had ace king off Juma Lan went for the four

133
00:07:02.759 --> 00:07:07.199
<v Speaker 1>bet jam Sasculotti called and the ace king held from

134
00:07:07.240 --> 00:07:11.399
<v Speaker 1>there to give Sasclotti the double up. Then more fireworks

135
00:07:11.399 --> 00:07:14.480
<v Speaker 1>were had when we had a giant three way all

136
00:07:14.560 --> 00:07:19.360
<v Speaker 1>in clash between Todd Brunson, brock Wilson and Malcolm Trainer.

137
00:07:19.879 --> 00:07:23.879
<v Speaker 1>Brunson had ace king of diamonds, brock Wilson had pocket

138
00:07:23.959 --> 00:07:28.000
<v Speaker 1>kings and Trainer had pocket queens. So of course big

139
00:07:28.040 --> 00:07:30.519
<v Speaker 1>hands like this, the money is likely going to get

140
00:07:30.519 --> 00:07:34.240
<v Speaker 1>in the flop comes eight deuce deuice. There's a single

141
00:07:34.279 --> 00:07:36.439
<v Speaker 1>diamond on the flop, nine of diamonds on the turn,

142
00:07:36.480 --> 00:07:39.959
<v Speaker 1>so Brunson can now hit an ace or he can

143
00:07:40.040 --> 00:07:41.800
<v Speaker 1>hit a diamond. Well, the river was an ace. I

144
00:07:41.839 --> 00:07:44.480
<v Speaker 1>believe it was the ace of spades, so that allowed

145
00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:48.240
<v Speaker 1>Todd Brunson to triple up. Now Wilson did win the

146
00:07:48.279 --> 00:07:53.160
<v Speaker 1>side pot against Trainer with his kings beating Trainers queens,

147
00:07:53.319 --> 00:07:55.720
<v Speaker 1>so he basically stayed even on the hand. I think

148
00:07:55.759 --> 00:07:58.199
<v Speaker 1>he went into it with a little bit over fifteen

149
00:07:58.240 --> 00:07:59.920
<v Speaker 1>million and that's what he left coming out of it.

150
00:08:00.480 --> 00:08:03.600
<v Speaker 1>And then Trainer was clipped some Trainer still was very

151
00:08:03.639 --> 00:08:06.920
<v Speaker 1>healthy after the hand, but you know it obviously does

152
00:08:07.160 --> 00:08:10.000
<v Speaker 1>hurt to lose chips like that. Then we had our

153
00:08:10.040 --> 00:08:13.000
<v Speaker 1>first bust out of the day and that was Dylan Smith.

154
00:08:13.079 --> 00:08:16.079
<v Speaker 1>He went out in twenty first place for three hundred

155
00:08:16.120 --> 00:08:19.800
<v Speaker 1>and twenty five thousand dollars. You know, Dylan hung around,

156
00:08:19.839 --> 00:08:21.879
<v Speaker 1>hung around, hung around. I talked about in the last

157
00:08:21.879 --> 00:08:25.959
<v Speaker 1>episode how he was really valuing his tournament life. Ultimately

158
00:08:26.399 --> 00:08:28.680
<v Speaker 1>he did find a spot to get all in with Asjack.

159
00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:32.600
<v Speaker 1>He got all in against Jumalan King Queen of Diamonds.

160
00:08:33.320 --> 00:08:37.200
<v Speaker 1>It was running diamonds to give Jumalan a flush, and

161
00:08:37.279 --> 00:08:42.039
<v Speaker 1>that kote Dylan Smith in twenty first place. Then you

162
00:08:42.120 --> 00:08:46.120
<v Speaker 1>had what I think is probably the pot of the

163
00:08:46.200 --> 00:08:49.519
<v Speaker 1>day when you think about how everything then played out

164
00:08:49.840 --> 00:08:53.320
<v Speaker 1>from there on out, because we had an enormous double

165
00:08:53.440 --> 00:08:59.519
<v Speaker 1>up for the kid for Jumalan against the popular possibly

166
00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:05.159
<v Speaker 1>arising to an extent colorful. Certainly, Will gibbins Jumalan out

167
00:09:05.159 --> 00:09:07.639
<v Speaker 1>of the small blind raised a little bit over three

168
00:09:07.919 --> 00:09:11.759
<v Speaker 1>x with Ace ten off. Gibvens made it nine point

169
00:09:11.840 --> 00:09:14.320
<v Speaker 1>six X from the big blind with Ace Queen Off.

170
00:09:14.399 --> 00:09:17.600
<v Speaker 1>So Ace Queen Off dominating the Ace ten off for Jumalan.

171
00:09:18.080 --> 00:09:22.399
<v Speaker 1>Jumalan responds with a jam he piles all in from

172
00:09:22.440 --> 00:09:26.120
<v Speaker 1>more than forty three big blinds. Gibvens calls it off,

173
00:09:26.679 --> 00:09:30.519
<v Speaker 1>has his man dominated, but the ten to ten four

174
00:09:30.759 --> 00:09:36.000
<v Speaker 1>flop smashes Jumalan. The turns a blank to leave Gibbons

175
00:09:36.080 --> 00:09:40.360
<v Speaker 1>drawing dead. And that was the hand that gave Jumalan

176
00:09:40.840 --> 00:09:44.519
<v Speaker 1>in enormous chip stack. It left Gibvens not out of

177
00:09:44.519 --> 00:09:46.360
<v Speaker 1>the tournament just yet. He did have a few big

178
00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:51.519
<v Speaker 1>blinds left, but I mean, holy hell, that was that

179
00:09:51.679 --> 00:09:55.480
<v Speaker 1>was a hand that was an absolute freaking hand from there,

180
00:09:55.679 --> 00:09:58.399
<v Speaker 1>you know, Givens did get a double up at one point,

181
00:09:58.480 --> 00:10:01.799
<v Speaker 1>and then Todd Brunson went out and twentieth place. He

182
00:10:01.840 --> 00:10:04.360
<v Speaker 1>got his money in a really good spot. He had aces,

183
00:10:04.360 --> 00:10:07.519
<v Speaker 1>he had red aces. It was against Malcolm Trainer. I

184
00:10:07.559 --> 00:10:11.519
<v Speaker 1>believe it was Brunson opening trainer defending from the big

185
00:10:11.519 --> 00:10:14.799
<v Speaker 1>blind if I remember correctly. It was eight three deuce

186
00:10:14.919 --> 00:10:18.159
<v Speaker 1>with two clubs. Trainer had ace jack of clubs. I

187
00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:21.200
<v Speaker 1>think he check called the flop, did trainer, and then

188
00:10:21.240 --> 00:10:22.960
<v Speaker 1>the turn was a jack. So now he's got a

189
00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:26.519
<v Speaker 1>pair of jack's top top kicker and the nut flush

190
00:10:26.559 --> 00:10:29.720
<v Speaker 1>draw and he checked jams. Brunson calls it off, rivers

191
00:10:29.759 --> 00:10:33.120
<v Speaker 1>the four of clubs, and we say goodbye to Todd Brunson.

192
00:10:33.600 --> 00:10:35.919
<v Speaker 1>Then after that Givens, you know, he held on for

193
00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:39.519
<v Speaker 1>as long as he could, ultimately fell in nineteenth place,

194
00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:42.840
<v Speaker 1>also taking home three hundred and twenty five thousand dollars.

195
00:10:42.879 --> 00:10:46.759
<v Speaker 1>And it was Jumalan who ultimately did Givens in King

196
00:10:46.879 --> 00:10:50.200
<v Speaker 1>jack Off for Givens, ju Milan's got pocket aces.

197
00:10:51.919 --> 00:10:53.159
<v Speaker 2>So it did come.

198
00:10:54.480 --> 00:10:56.639
<v Speaker 1>Given said King jack Off with the jack of clubs.

199
00:10:56.639 --> 00:11:00.399
<v Speaker 1>It came Queen ten eight, I think all club but

200
00:11:00.440 --> 00:11:03.200
<v Speaker 1>the ace of clubs did belong to Jumalan, so he

201
00:11:03.240 --> 00:11:06.320
<v Speaker 1>needed the nin o'clubs, did Givens. If you wanted to

202
00:11:06.360 --> 00:11:08.159
<v Speaker 1>make that flush, it would have been a straight flush,

203
00:11:08.720 --> 00:11:13.360
<v Speaker 1>but ultimately bricks out and we lose Givens in nineteenth

204
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:15.840
<v Speaker 1>place for three hundred and twenty five thousand dollars. And

205
00:11:15.879 --> 00:11:19.360
<v Speaker 1>then to close the book on Will Gibbins's run in

206
00:11:19.399 --> 00:11:22.879
<v Speaker 1>the twenty twenty sixth WICIP main event, Remco caught up

207
00:11:22.919 --> 00:11:25.240
<v Speaker 1>with him on the floor and here is that conversation

208
00:11:25.639 --> 00:11:27.039
<v Speaker 1>for you guys right now.

209
00:11:27.840 --> 00:11:28.919
<v Speaker 2>Well, what's on your mind?

210
00:11:29.480 --> 00:11:33.399
<v Speaker 3>After all this went down so close to the dream man.

211
00:11:33.759 --> 00:11:36.960
<v Speaker 7>Uh, there's a lot on my mind.

212
00:11:37.000 --> 00:11:40.639
<v Speaker 8>I just had two interviews from now after just talking

213
00:11:40.639 --> 00:11:45.159
<v Speaker 8>about it over and over. It's it's bigger than my emotions,

214
00:11:45.240 --> 00:11:46.919
<v Speaker 8>is you know what I'm saying, Like my emotions telling

215
00:11:46.919 --> 00:11:48.759
<v Speaker 8>me it's okay, you go, You'll you'll get it.

216
00:11:48.840 --> 00:11:50.960
<v Speaker 7>You know you're gonna make millions. I already see it.

217
00:11:50.960 --> 00:11:53.159
<v Speaker 7>But everybody's like, oh, how you feel being so close?

218
00:11:53.200 --> 00:11:56.840
<v Speaker 8>And isn't this I really go none when I'm in

219
00:11:56.840 --> 00:11:59.519
<v Speaker 8>the like when I'm in the battlefield, so like, I

220
00:11:59.519 --> 00:12:02.039
<v Speaker 8>don't have the emotion and that's what keeps me so killed.

221
00:12:02.279 --> 00:12:06.120
<v Speaker 8>And so the emotion hasn't took over me yet. Maybe

222
00:12:06.159 --> 00:12:07.960
<v Speaker 8>when I'm in the bed and I wake up and

223
00:12:08.000 --> 00:12:10.000
<v Speaker 8>I look at it and I see the equity and

224
00:12:10.039 --> 00:12:12.480
<v Speaker 8>how much it was, and yeah, man, maybe I'll feel

225
00:12:12.480 --> 00:12:14.279
<v Speaker 8>and I'll be at my own piece, I mean, my

226
00:12:15.000 --> 00:12:17.759
<v Speaker 8>own serenity, and who knows what I'll do.

227
00:12:18.320 --> 00:12:20.879
<v Speaker 7>But I'm still happy and blessed to be here.

228
00:12:21.279 --> 00:12:25.600
<v Speaker 8>Like I said, I was ben one. I registered on

229
00:12:25.679 --> 00:12:27.879
<v Speaker 8>day two two, so I come in.

230
00:12:28.519 --> 00:12:30.519
<v Speaker 4>Super late three.

<v Speaker 9>This is day eight. Blessed.

232
00:12:34.559 --> 00:12:37.320
<v Speaker 8>I have nothing else to complain about. I mean, suck

233
00:12:37.360 --> 00:12:39.039
<v Speaker 8>Off's happened to suck off could have happened on day

234
00:12:39.080 --> 00:12:40.919
<v Speaker 8>two when I registered at sixteen, know what I mean?

235
00:12:41.120 --> 00:12:41.600
<v Speaker 7>Super late.

236
00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:44.600
<v Speaker 8>So I gotta look at it as the glasses half full,

237
00:12:44.720 --> 00:12:45.360
<v Speaker 8>not half dificy.

238
00:12:45.399 --> 00:12:47.000
<v Speaker 7>That's how I live my life anyway. It's all about

239
00:12:47.000 --> 00:12:47.600
<v Speaker 7>a perspective.

240
00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:51.120
<v Speaker 3>Talk to me about the support you received both on

241
00:12:51.120 --> 00:12:54.039
<v Speaker 3>the rail. I can imagine your social media blowing up.

242
00:12:54.120 --> 00:12:55.159
<v Speaker 2>Bro, what's it been like?

243
00:12:55.960 --> 00:12:56.639
<v Speaker 7>Nonstopping?

244
00:12:56.840 --> 00:12:59.440
<v Speaker 8>People think that I'm ignoring them, And She's like, y'all

245
00:12:59.440 --> 00:13:00.600
<v Speaker 8>don't understand.

246
00:13:01.399 --> 00:13:02.200
<v Speaker 7>Y'all don't understand.

247
00:13:02.279 --> 00:13:05.440
<v Speaker 8>I'm getting messages left right, cauls left right, texts like

248
00:13:06.039 --> 00:13:09.200
<v Speaker 8>I love it. But when I'm in this zone, I can't.

249
00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:12.240
<v Speaker 8>I can't use the energy that way. My energy gotta

250
00:13:12.320 --> 00:13:16.200
<v Speaker 8>be like aligned in here. I love it, first of all.

251
00:13:16.320 --> 00:13:18.879
<v Speaker 8>I love I love it when people I feel like

252
00:13:18.919 --> 00:13:21.960
<v Speaker 8>they take it. They get sensitive when I get into this,

253
00:13:21.960 --> 00:13:24.960
<v Speaker 8>this warrior zone, you know what I'm saying, And they

254
00:13:25.039 --> 00:13:31.360
<v Speaker 8>just don't understand somebody out there fighting up a knife fight.

255
00:13:31.759 --> 00:13:33.679
<v Speaker 7>You ain't gonna be like, hey man, what's up? And

256
00:13:33.720 --> 00:13:34.240
<v Speaker 7>he's fighting.

257
00:13:34.519 --> 00:13:36.799
<v Speaker 8>No, let him focus on it, you know what I'm saying.

258
00:13:37.519 --> 00:13:39.879
<v Speaker 8>That's how I just go into this killer be killed mode.

259
00:13:40.000 --> 00:13:41.679
<v Speaker 8>And once I'm in that mold don't talk to me.

260
00:13:42.480 --> 00:13:46.720
<v Speaker 8>I love you, but that's no disrespect to anybody. I'm

261
00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:49.120
<v Speaker 8>not saying no topic cause I like, but I just

262
00:13:49.279 --> 00:13:49.600
<v Speaker 8>I just.

263
00:13:49.559 --> 00:13:50.399
<v Speaker 7>Go into this mode.

264
00:13:50.440 --> 00:13:52.879
<v Speaker 6>Bro, I can't explain it. I just go by.

265
00:13:53.519 --> 00:13:55.840
<v Speaker 7>I go into a different, different zone.

266
00:13:56.000 --> 00:13:58.559
<v Speaker 8>And and because I'm in that zone, it's messed me

267
00:13:58.639 --> 00:13:59.600
<v Speaker 8>up in reality.

268
00:14:00.000 --> 00:14:01.759
<v Speaker 7>And I've talked to somebody else about this before.

269
00:14:02.240 --> 00:14:04.799
<v Speaker 8>Relationships suck for me because if me and this girl breakup,

270
00:14:04.840 --> 00:14:08.600
<v Speaker 8>I don't care go poker has like so I try

271
00:14:08.639 --> 00:14:11.279
<v Speaker 8>to like balance it, like, Okay, will you gotta realize

272
00:14:11.279 --> 00:14:14.320
<v Speaker 8>you gotta have emotion because this type of stuff right here,

273
00:14:15.399 --> 00:14:17.799
<v Speaker 8>if your emotions is too high, you'll be down there crying.

274
00:14:18.600 --> 00:14:20.799
<v Speaker 8>So you got to so you have to cut it

275
00:14:20.840 --> 00:14:22.440
<v Speaker 8>off so you don't feel it so you can be

276
00:14:22.480 --> 00:14:24.320
<v Speaker 8>ready for the next one and be.

277
00:14:24.399 --> 00:14:25.720
<v Speaker 7>You know what I'm saying. I don't know, man, I'm

00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:32.240
<v Speaker 6>Keep it moving.

302
00:15:46.080 --> 00:15:48.639
<v Speaker 1>So that was Will Givings on his way out the door.

303
00:15:48.639 --> 00:15:51.159
<v Speaker 1>I would say to him, you know, hold your head high.

304
00:15:51.240 --> 00:15:54.039
<v Speaker 1>You got your money in an absolutely incredible spot and

305
00:15:54.240 --> 00:15:58.279
<v Speaker 1>the deck just didn't favor you. Which it sucks, of course,

306
00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:02.000
<v Speaker 1>it absolutely sucks, but still a great run for Will

307
00:16:02.039 --> 00:16:04.080
<v Speaker 1>gives three hundred and twenty five K in the bank.

308
00:16:04.679 --> 00:16:07.799
<v Speaker 1>Believe he cashed overall at this World Series of Poker

309
00:16:07.879 --> 00:16:12.039
<v Speaker 1>for more than five hundred maybe six hundred thousand dollars total.

310
00:16:12.080 --> 00:16:14.360
<v Speaker 1>He had that one final table in the PLO, he

311
00:16:14.399 --> 00:16:16.240
<v Speaker 1>had another deep run of the Millionaire Maker, and then

312
00:16:16.240 --> 00:16:19.000
<v Speaker 1>of course he has the very deep run here in

313
00:16:19.200 --> 00:16:23.840
<v Speaker 1>the WISP main event, down to eighteen players, down to

314
00:16:23.919 --> 00:16:28.080
<v Speaker 1>two tables. Thomas Klack bus in eighteenth place for three

315
00:16:28.120 --> 00:16:31.600
<v Speaker 1>hundred and twenty five thousand dollars. He flopped two pair

316
00:16:32.159 --> 00:16:34.600
<v Speaker 1>on the ace ten to five board in a three

317
00:16:34.600 --> 00:16:39.039
<v Speaker 1>way pot, but Hossin Enson, the twenty nineteen champion of

318
00:16:39.080 --> 00:16:42.759
<v Speaker 1>this very event, making another run. He turned a better

319
00:16:42.840 --> 00:16:45.519
<v Speaker 1>two pair with ace seven, A seven hit the turn,

320
00:16:45.639 --> 00:16:49.360
<v Speaker 1>the money goes in, and that was all she wrote

321
00:16:49.399 --> 00:16:53.919
<v Speaker 1>for Thomas Klack. That hand and that pot put Enson

322
00:16:54.120 --> 00:16:57.200
<v Speaker 1>up to sixty six million, And at this stage, you know,

323
00:16:57.240 --> 00:17:00.600
<v Speaker 1>it really did start to look like En going to

324
00:17:00.720 --> 00:17:05.480
<v Speaker 1>just absolutely cruise his way to another disipy main event

325
00:17:05.599 --> 00:17:09.920
<v Speaker 1>final label in the modern era and have a shot

326
00:17:10.039 --> 00:17:14.160
<v Speaker 1>at winning poker's greatest tournament once again, which would have

327
00:17:14.200 --> 00:17:18.559
<v Speaker 1>been absolutely freaking outrageous if that were to be the case.

328
00:17:18.640 --> 00:17:20.880
<v Speaker 1>You know that that was like to me, that was

329
00:17:21.119 --> 00:17:23.440
<v Speaker 1>the headlining story. You know, is he going to do

330
00:17:23.480 --> 00:17:27.759
<v Speaker 1>it again? We've seen many deep runs from previous champions.

331
00:17:27.799 --> 00:17:30.599
<v Speaker 1>You know, we've seen many close calls to winning it again.

332
00:17:30.920 --> 00:17:34.440
<v Speaker 1>I think Joe Katta doing it in what was it

333
00:17:34.440 --> 00:17:36.799
<v Speaker 1>it was he won it in two thousand and nine,

334
00:17:36.960 --> 00:17:40.440
<v Speaker 1>and then in twenty eighteen, I think he got fifth place.

335
00:17:41.359 --> 00:17:43.440
<v Speaker 1>You know, that was an absolutely incredible run by him,

336
00:17:43.680 --> 00:17:46.480
<v Speaker 1>and then crazy stuff. But in the two thousand and

337
00:17:46.559 --> 00:17:49.200
<v Speaker 1>what was it eighteen when he got fifth and he

338
00:17:49.279 --> 00:17:52.599
<v Speaker 1>just goes on to then enter the closer and just wins.

339
00:17:52.640 --> 00:17:55.759
<v Speaker 1>That just just wild stuff there from Joe Kada. But

340
00:17:55.839 --> 00:17:57.799
<v Speaker 1>you know that's the type of levels that we're talking

341
00:17:57.799 --> 00:18:00.680
<v Speaker 1>about with with hosting Enson making this run here and

342
00:18:00.960 --> 00:18:02.720
<v Speaker 1>you know we're down to the file two tables. He's

343
00:18:02.839 --> 00:18:05.480
<v Speaker 1>super healthy on chips, he looks locked in, he looks

344
00:18:05.519 --> 00:18:08.440
<v Speaker 1>in the zone. He's getting a lot of hands too,

345
00:18:08.480 --> 00:18:12.160
<v Speaker 1>which helps of course, yes, and it's like, okay, here

346
00:18:12.200 --> 00:18:15.440
<v Speaker 1>we go. He's gonna freaking do it. So after we

347
00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:19.000
<v Speaker 1>lose Clack, we lose Romayne Lewis in seventeenth place. He

348
00:18:19.039 --> 00:18:22.440
<v Speaker 1>four bet jammed with pocket kings only to run smack

349
00:18:22.680 --> 00:18:27.680
<v Speaker 1>into Greg Mueller's aces bricks out for Lewis. He's out

350
00:18:27.720 --> 00:18:29.920
<v Speaker 1>the door in seventeenth for four hundred and ten k

351
00:18:30.599 --> 00:18:34.079
<v Speaker 1>and then we lost brock Wilson in sixteenth place. Now

352
00:18:34.279 --> 00:18:36.319
<v Speaker 1>I do have to rewind quickly to the hand where

353
00:18:36.319 --> 00:18:38.680
<v Speaker 1>it was the three way all in between Brunson, Wilson,

354
00:18:38.759 --> 00:18:44.640
<v Speaker 1>and trainer. You could get the sense that Wilson thought

355
00:18:44.680 --> 00:18:47.559
<v Speaker 1>he lost the hand completely and that he was out.

356
00:18:47.720 --> 00:18:49.720
<v Speaker 1>Like the way that he reacted when that river cart

357
00:18:49.759 --> 00:18:52.359
<v Speaker 1>hit it certainly looked like he might have been out

358
00:18:52.400 --> 00:18:54.000
<v Speaker 1>of the tournament. But he wasn't out of the tournament.

359
00:18:54.319 --> 00:18:58.559
<v Speaker 1>He regrouped, you know, he got back together or whatever,

360
00:18:58.680 --> 00:19:02.519
<v Speaker 1>you know, collected himself and then he was going on

361
00:19:02.559 --> 00:19:06.160
<v Speaker 1>to fight on. But ultimately his run did end in

362
00:19:06.400 --> 00:19:09.319
<v Speaker 1>sixteenth place. Also four hundred and ten thousand dollars for him.

363
00:19:09.680 --> 00:19:13.160
<v Speaker 1>Pretty sick way to go to. Daniel Savas opened on

364
00:19:13.200 --> 00:19:17.880
<v Speaker 1>the button with nine eight of hearts. Brock Wilson jammed

365
00:19:17.960 --> 00:19:19.720
<v Speaker 1>twelve and a half big lines from the big line

366
00:19:19.759 --> 00:19:23.079
<v Speaker 1>with King jack Off. Savas got a count, took some time,

367
00:19:23.440 --> 00:19:25.880
<v Speaker 1>and then made the call with the nine eight of hearts.

368
00:19:25.920 --> 00:19:28.839
<v Speaker 1>So six spot. When you see that call from your opponent,

369
00:19:28.880 --> 00:19:31.720
<v Speaker 1>because he's got a good hand that's plenty live up

370
00:19:31.759 --> 00:19:35.319
<v Speaker 1>against your hand, it comes ten nine to six favoring

371
00:19:35.359 --> 00:19:38.480
<v Speaker 1>service and then just bricks out for Wilson and he's

372
00:19:38.599 --> 00:19:41.680
<v Speaker 1>out the door, but nevertheless a very good run for

373
00:19:42.039 --> 00:19:48.000
<v Speaker 1>Brock Wilson. After that, we saw Michael Gagliano aka Gags.

374
00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:51.680
<v Speaker 1>He doubled through Sean Deep tens versus Ash jack Off,

375
00:19:52.400 --> 00:19:54.599
<v Speaker 1>and then we later lost Sean Deep. You know, he

376
00:19:54.640 --> 00:19:59.519
<v Speaker 1>got down kind of shortish after losing that flip to Gagliano.

377
00:20:00.160 --> 00:20:02.720
<v Speaker 1>Pretty standard flip. You know, money just goes in one

378
00:20:02.799 --> 00:20:05.720
<v Speaker 1>one's gotta win, one's gotta lose. Deep gets down, he

379
00:20:05.799 --> 00:20:08.400
<v Speaker 1>kind of fights back up, but then ultimately he goes

380
00:20:08.920 --> 00:20:12.279
<v Speaker 1>out in fifteenth, also taking four hundred and ten thousand dollars.

381
00:20:12.839 --> 00:20:15.160
<v Speaker 1>His hand was it was a three way pot to

382
00:20:15.799 --> 00:20:19.759
<v Speaker 1>the Queen five to four rainbow flop. Deeb Alex to

383
00:20:20.000 --> 00:20:25.000
<v Speaker 1>check Jam over a bet from Rami Hamoud. Hamoud calls

384
00:20:25.000 --> 00:20:27.720
<v Speaker 1>with Ace Queen top hair, top kicker, Deeb's got seven

385
00:20:27.799 --> 00:20:30.839
<v Speaker 1>to six for the open ender. No help comes for

386
00:20:31.079 --> 00:20:33.640
<v Speaker 1>Sean Deeb and he's out the door trying to get

387
00:20:33.640 --> 00:20:36.400
<v Speaker 1>into the next tournament because all he cares about is

388
00:20:36.920 --> 00:20:40.519
<v Speaker 1>Player of the Year. Remko also caught up with Sean

389
00:20:40.559 --> 00:20:43.680
<v Speaker 1>Deeb after he was done doing some other interviews and

390
00:20:43.799 --> 00:20:47.079
<v Speaker 1>getting through his main event run. Talk to him about

391
00:20:47.119 --> 00:20:49.359
<v Speaker 1>getting knocked out his run in this tournament, and then

392
00:20:49.400 --> 00:20:52.440
<v Speaker 1>what's next for deep in the Player of the Year chase.

393
00:20:52.519 --> 00:20:55.359
<v Speaker 1>So here is that interview with Remco and Sean deeb

394
00:20:55.640 --> 00:20:56.119
<v Speaker 1>right now.

395
00:20:57.000 --> 00:20:58.759
<v Speaker 2>So what's next? What can you register for?

396
00:20:58.880 --> 00:21:01.480
<v Speaker 10>I readistered for the fifth twenty five K Horse, but

397
00:21:01.599 --> 00:21:04.319
<v Speaker 10>I realized that I probably should play the five hundred

398
00:21:04.319 --> 00:21:07.160
<v Speaker 10>Summer Saver first because register closing in seven minutes. So

399
00:21:07.200 --> 00:21:09.720
<v Speaker 10>I'm gonna click register there, hop in that one first,

400
00:21:09.720 --> 00:21:10.640
<v Speaker 10>and then go to the Horse.

401
00:21:10.480 --> 00:21:13.960
<v Speaker 6>After at anybody at any playing for you.

402
00:21:14.000 --> 00:21:15.559
<v Speaker 10>Know, ten million dollars and I go play a five

403
00:21:15.559 --> 00:21:18.160
<v Speaker 10>dollars tournament. I just love poker. I love the World Series.

404
00:21:18.200 --> 00:21:20.119
<v Speaker 10>And my table's gonna laugh when they see me, and

405
00:21:20.160 --> 00:21:22.039
<v Speaker 10>they're gonna be like, aren't you in the main I'm like, yeah,

406
00:21:22.759 --> 00:21:24.519
<v Speaker 10>I'll just tell them multi tabling to fuck with them

407
00:21:24.519 --> 00:21:24.960
<v Speaker 10>a little bit.

408
00:21:25.000 --> 00:21:27.720
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, the delay wouldn't even have caught up yet.

409
00:21:27.799 --> 00:21:28.960
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, you'd be showing up there.

410
00:21:28.960 --> 00:21:31.680
<v Speaker 10>They're gonna get a spoiler and they're gonna be so dejected.

411
00:21:32.480 --> 00:21:34.519
<v Speaker 10>But obviously I'm coming in with like ten big blinds

412
00:21:34.519 --> 00:21:37.119
<v Speaker 10>in a five tournament, but I'll probably bag Chipley didn't that,

413
00:21:37.119 --> 00:21:38.799
<v Speaker 10>and that that'll be you know what I did tomorrow.

414
00:21:39.559 --> 00:21:42.759
<v Speaker 3>So your mindset throughout this tournament seems so chill, so relaxed.

415
00:21:42.799 --> 00:21:44.799
<v Speaker 3>I know that that's what you're always like, but do

416
00:21:44.839 --> 00:21:47.119
<v Speaker 3>you think that it's carried you in a way also

417
00:21:47.119 --> 00:21:49.680
<v Speaker 3>against the opposition, perhaps freaking him out a little bit.

418
00:21:49.920 --> 00:21:51.680
<v Speaker 10>I think they were burning a lot of extra energy

419
00:21:51.680 --> 00:21:54.319
<v Speaker 10>with their stress level, their adrenaline bumping. I was getting

420
00:21:54.480 --> 00:21:57.640
<v Speaker 10>seven eight hours of sleep at night, totally relaxed all in,

421
00:21:57.920 --> 00:22:00.759
<v Speaker 10>heart rate was nothing. You know, I'm not emotional that

422
00:22:00.759 --> 00:22:02.519
<v Speaker 10>I wasn't treating the spot like too big. I was

423
00:22:02.559 --> 00:22:05.240
<v Speaker 10>just playing, you know, poker with my ability, and I

424
00:22:05.240 --> 00:22:07.039
<v Speaker 10>don't think I don't think everyone in that field would

425
00:22:07.079 --> 00:22:09.440
<v Speaker 10>raise call the h jack I did. I think it's

426
00:22:09.480 --> 00:22:11.319
<v Speaker 10>a good call. And you know, I played a few

427
00:22:11.319 --> 00:22:13.799
<v Speaker 10>spots for chippyv over icm. You know, the King four

428
00:22:13.839 --> 00:22:15.920
<v Speaker 10>off call for five bigs, and there's a couple other

429
00:22:15.920 --> 00:22:19.240
<v Speaker 10>spots like I'm linning increase variance, especially versus better players

430
00:22:19.880 --> 00:22:22.440
<v Speaker 10>and the good players in the field, and that's my style.

431
00:22:22.480 --> 00:22:24.640
<v Speaker 10>And sometimes I get all the chips and sometimes I

432
00:22:24.759 --> 00:22:27.799
<v Speaker 10>bust and I'm content with that, and that's been my

433
00:22:27.880 --> 00:22:30.160
<v Speaker 10>career and I'm nothing's going to change.

434
00:22:30.599 --> 00:22:32.279
<v Speaker 2>You chase the accolade of winning POY.

435
00:22:32.519 --> 00:22:35.519
<v Speaker 3>Obviously that's a huge thing, a huge operation, but you

436
00:22:35.599 --> 00:22:38.079
<v Speaker 3>never seem to talk about the prestige that could have

437
00:22:38.119 --> 00:22:39.279
<v Speaker 3>been in the main event.

438
00:22:39.279 --> 00:22:40.720
<v Speaker 2>They give a banner for that thing too, you know,

439
00:22:41.000 --> 00:22:41.720
<v Speaker 2>I trust me.

440
00:22:41.759 --> 00:22:44.799
<v Speaker 10>I had thought about winning the Main, getting like so

441
00:22:44.880 --> 00:22:47.319
<v Speaker 10>many POY points and being the first person at four banners.

442
00:22:47.480 --> 00:22:49.319
<v Speaker 10>I was aware, you know, and I know mers. I

443
00:22:49.319 --> 00:22:52.000
<v Speaker 10>think Merson's only one who double one the Main and POY.

444
00:22:52.359 --> 00:22:55.559
<v Speaker 10>But you know, there's always other times, and I know

445
00:22:55.640 --> 00:22:58.119
<v Speaker 10>that the stamina of the Main I'm capable of having

446
00:22:58.279 --> 00:23:00.960
<v Speaker 10>because I'm here fifty dights, like on the same sleep schedule,

447
00:23:00.960 --> 00:23:03.000
<v Speaker 10>the same work schedule, every day, like every day of

448
00:23:03.000 --> 00:23:03.480
<v Speaker 10>the summer.

449
00:23:03.599 --> 00:23:04.480
<v Speaker 6>These guys are coming out here.

450
00:23:04.480 --> 00:23:06.319
<v Speaker 10>They don't play a term, so the first one they play,

451
00:23:06.480 --> 00:23:08.160
<v Speaker 10>they're not used to showing up every day and going

452
00:23:08.200 --> 00:23:08.519
<v Speaker 10>to work.

453
00:23:08.599 --> 00:23:10.000
<v Speaker 6>And I am I could I.

454
00:23:09.920 --> 00:23:11.680
<v Speaker 10>Could do this for another six months straight, you know,

455
00:23:11.839 --> 00:23:13.839
<v Speaker 10>the World Series of eight months. My wife would divorce me,

456
00:23:14.440 --> 00:23:16.559
<v Speaker 10>but I would still be here, you know, playing every day,

457
00:23:16.599 --> 00:23:17.039
<v Speaker 10>every event.

458
00:23:17.400 --> 00:23:21.240
<v Speaker 3>Final question. The main gets so much extra attention. What

459
00:23:21.279 --> 00:23:23.079
<v Speaker 3>has it been like to be in the middle of that.

460
00:23:23.839 --> 00:23:25.640
<v Speaker 10>Well, I'm gonna pull a phil helmet at the name drop.

461
00:23:26.319 --> 00:23:27.119
<v Speaker 2>It was pretty awesome.

462
00:23:27.119 --> 00:23:29.559
<v Speaker 10>Every day Kevin Pollock's texting me asking what my chips

463
00:23:29.559 --> 00:23:32.839
<v Speaker 10>deck is, trying to get updates. You know, it's cool,

464
00:23:32.880 --> 00:23:35.400
<v Speaker 10>you know, meeting celebrities, knowing that they want to be

465
00:23:35.519 --> 00:23:38.519
<v Speaker 10>doing what I do, and just so much support. I

466
00:23:38.559 --> 00:23:41.200
<v Speaker 10>have a great circle of friends, all Team Lucky, you know,

467
00:23:41.680 --> 00:23:43.240
<v Speaker 10>and have everyone else behind me.

468
00:23:44.000 --> 00:23:44.480
<v Speaker 6>It's great.

469
00:23:45.200 --> 00:23:48.440
<v Speaker 10>I love, you know, fans asking for photos and it's

470
00:23:48.519 --> 00:23:51.920
<v Speaker 10>just it's cool. Treating poker has made me a celebrity

471
00:23:51.920 --> 00:23:55.480
<v Speaker 10>and poker, but I'm also humble in some ways. I'm

472
00:23:55.480 --> 00:23:56.920
<v Speaker 10>not humble in a lot of ways, but there's a

473
00:23:56.920 --> 00:23:57.759
<v Speaker 10>couple I still.

474
00:23:57.519 --> 00:24:01.440
<v Speaker 1>Am so Sean deep snap into the five hundred dollars

475
00:24:01.440 --> 00:24:04.319
<v Speaker 1>Summer Saver, he's just an absolutely sick individual.

476
00:24:05.039 --> 00:24:06.160
<v Speaker 2>Busted that and then.

477
00:24:06.160 --> 00:24:10.359
<v Speaker 1>Hopped into the twenty five k horse that is still running.

478
00:24:10.880 --> 00:24:14.880
<v Speaker 1>I think there's still three tournaments to start too. I

479
00:24:14.920 --> 00:24:18.079
<v Speaker 1>think there's a like a one k or a fifteen hundred.

480
00:24:18.119 --> 00:24:19.799
<v Speaker 1>There's a five k, and then there's the one K

481
00:24:19.920 --> 00:24:22.599
<v Speaker 1>Super Turbo in two days. So it's kind of crazy

482
00:24:22.640 --> 00:24:26.279
<v Speaker 1>to think that the WSOP main event makes the final table.

483
00:24:27.640 --> 00:24:29.640
<v Speaker 1>It feels like the series is done, but it's not.

484
00:24:29.839 --> 00:24:32.640
<v Speaker 1>There's still two more full days of action. That's that's

485
00:24:32.640 --> 00:24:35.279
<v Speaker 1>going to be happening at the World Series of Poker.

486
00:24:35.480 --> 00:24:37.079
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure if I'm going to travel down there.

487
00:24:37.079 --> 00:24:39.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure I will, I say that, but I'm sure

488
00:24:39.319 --> 00:24:42.559
<v Speaker 1>I'll be down there for something, you know, because if

489
00:24:43.079 --> 00:24:45.359
<v Speaker 1>the WSP is happening and if I can help it,

490
00:24:45.640 --> 00:25:00.839
<v Speaker 1>I'm probably gonna be there. We then we lost Daniel

491
00:25:01.000 --> 00:25:04.000
<v Speaker 1>Salvas in fourteenth place for four hundred and ten thousand dollars.

492
00:25:04.000 --> 00:25:08.240
<v Speaker 1>He first ran pocket tens into Sascolatti's pocket. Jack's pretty

493
00:25:08.240 --> 00:25:10.799
<v Speaker 1>standard hand with the money going in there, and then

494
00:25:10.839 --> 00:25:13.000
<v Speaker 1>on the next hand after that he jammed all in

495
00:25:13.119 --> 00:25:14.640
<v Speaker 1>for I think it was a little bit less than

496
00:25:14.680 --> 00:25:18.039
<v Speaker 1>four big lines with nine to six off. Sascolotti finished

497
00:25:18.119 --> 00:25:21.480
<v Speaker 1>him off with ast nine off had him dominated. So

498
00:25:21.559 --> 00:25:25.279
<v Speaker 1>we lose Savas to get down to thirteen, and then

499
00:25:25.319 --> 00:25:29.160
<v Speaker 1>this is when we see another big pot go the

500
00:25:29.200 --> 00:25:31.200
<v Speaker 1>way of the kid. I'm gonna call him the kid,

501
00:25:31.480 --> 00:25:34.200
<v Speaker 1>Lucas Jumalan. This time he won a big one off

502
00:25:34.200 --> 00:25:38.119
<v Speaker 1>at the other kid slightly older though Malcolm trainer jacks

503
00:25:38.319 --> 00:25:43.240
<v Speaker 1>versus Queen's. So this one came at the five hundred thousand,

504
00:25:43.519 --> 00:25:48.640
<v Speaker 1>one million big blind level. Jumalan raises the button, makes

505
00:25:48.640 --> 00:25:51.799
<v Speaker 1>it two big lines. Trainer three bets from the big

506
00:25:51.839 --> 00:25:56.640
<v Speaker 1>blind to nine Biglindes. Jumalan calls in position with the jacks.

507
00:25:56.759 --> 00:26:02.440
<v Speaker 1>It comes ace jack four two diamonds, Trainer best four million.

508
00:26:02.640 --> 00:26:06.599
<v Speaker 1>Jumalan calls turns an ace or sorry in eight off

509
00:26:06.640 --> 00:26:10.920
<v Speaker 1>suit eight. Trainer check calls eight and a half million.

510
00:26:11.079 --> 00:26:14.240
<v Speaker 1>Believe the pot now is forty four and a half million,

511
00:26:14.279 --> 00:26:17.440
<v Speaker 1>forty five million, something like that. The river's a four

512
00:26:17.599 --> 00:26:20.440
<v Speaker 1>pairs the board, so now it's a full house for Jumalan.

513
00:26:20.960 --> 00:26:26.240
<v Speaker 1>Trainer checks. Jumalan goes for thirty five million. Trainer Tanks

514
00:26:26.440 --> 00:26:29.680
<v Speaker 1>ultimately makes the call. He is wrong in trying to

515
00:26:29.680 --> 00:26:33.119
<v Speaker 1>make the hero call here because Jumalan's got the goods

516
00:26:33.720 --> 00:26:37.319
<v Speaker 1>with the full house, and all of a sudden, Lucas

517
00:26:37.400 --> 00:26:39.960
<v Speaker 1>Jumlan is up over one hundred million. He's up to

518
00:26:40.000 --> 00:26:43.960
<v Speaker 1>one hundred and twenty five million and absolutely looking like

519
00:26:44.119 --> 00:26:48.880
<v Speaker 1>he's gonna do the damn thing. Very impressed with Jumalan

520
00:26:49.119 --> 00:26:52.400
<v Speaker 1>throughout much of the play here that we've seen him

521
00:26:52.400 --> 00:26:54.720
<v Speaker 1>in the later stages. Yeah, he's had some stuff that

522
00:26:54.799 --> 00:26:57.559
<v Speaker 1>may have not worked out in his favor, but the

523
00:26:57.640 --> 00:27:00.839
<v Speaker 1>kid is very good. You can tell what he's doing.

524
00:27:00.960 --> 00:27:03.960
<v Speaker 1>He goes for it. He's aggressive, he's fearless, all that

525
00:27:04.000 --> 00:27:06.480
<v Speaker 1>sort of stuff. He's got a little bit of a

526
00:27:06.480 --> 00:27:09.359
<v Speaker 1>bravado about him too, which I do think.

527
00:27:10.920 --> 00:27:11.960
<v Speaker 2>You have to kind of be.

528
00:27:13.400 --> 00:27:17.160
<v Speaker 1>Crazy confident when you're getting into these spots, you know,

529
00:27:17.240 --> 00:27:19.279
<v Speaker 1>because you have you do. You have to believe in

530
00:27:19.319 --> 00:27:21.480
<v Speaker 1>yourself and you have to believe that you can ultimately

531
00:27:21.480 --> 00:27:23.839
<v Speaker 1>go on to do it. And I think that that

532
00:27:23.920 --> 00:27:25.480
<v Speaker 1>the kid does. I mean, he's got that twenty two

533
00:27:25.559 --> 00:27:28.319
<v Speaker 1>year old mindset where I can do anything me against

534
00:27:28.359 --> 00:27:30.960
<v Speaker 1>the world, it doesn't matter. So that's kind of great

535
00:27:30.960 --> 00:27:33.480
<v Speaker 1>to see. So he's cruising here after this pot up

536
00:27:33.480 --> 00:27:36.400
<v Speaker 1>to one hundred and twenty five million. Then we lose

537
00:27:36.599 --> 00:27:39.480
<v Speaker 1>what I think was the biggest story left at the time,

538
00:27:39.559 --> 00:27:44.680
<v Speaker 1>hosting Enson the champion from twenty and nineteen, going for

539
00:27:44.960 --> 00:27:48.359
<v Speaker 1>back to going for another trip to the final table

540
00:27:48.440 --> 00:27:53.240
<v Speaker 1>another title. In the Disop main event, he's out thirteenth

541
00:27:53.319 --> 00:27:56.920
<v Speaker 1>for five hundred and ten k Lori Sascelotti opened on

542
00:27:56.960 --> 00:28:01.000
<v Speaker 1>the button. Hosting Enson found a pretty standard spot here.

543
00:28:01.079 --> 00:28:03.960
<v Speaker 1>I think to jam a little bit over twenty six

544
00:28:04.000 --> 00:28:07.160
<v Speaker 1>Big Lilinds with Ace Queen off. The problem is, well,

545
00:28:07.160 --> 00:28:09.680
<v Speaker 1>this is one of the things I just hate in poker,

546
00:28:09.720 --> 00:28:13.200
<v Speaker 1>and I know all you players out there can understand

547
00:28:13.200 --> 00:28:15.839
<v Speaker 1>what I'm talking about. When the big blind just wakes

548
00:28:15.920 --> 00:28:17.920
<v Speaker 1>up with it. I mean, I know the big line

549
00:28:17.920 --> 00:28:20.720
<v Speaker 1>didn't actually do anything wrong, but it just sucks when

550
00:28:20.759 --> 00:28:23.920
<v Speaker 1>you do the standard thing and then the person behind you,

551
00:28:24.319 --> 00:28:27.400
<v Speaker 1>the one person behind you in this case, just wakes.

552
00:28:27.200 --> 00:28:27.839
<v Speaker 2>Up with the goods.

553
00:28:27.880 --> 00:28:31.279
<v Speaker 1>Michael Gagliano and the Big LiLine just picks up two cowboys,

554
00:28:31.279 --> 00:28:35.400
<v Speaker 1>two kings, and that's that. You know, Enzun's out the door.

555
00:28:35.880 --> 00:28:38.599
<v Speaker 1>Believe he did flop a queen but bricked out from there,

556
00:28:38.720 --> 00:28:41.920
<v Speaker 1>and all of a sudden, Gags Michael Gagliano is up

557
00:28:41.920 --> 00:28:44.319
<v Speaker 1>to eighty one million. So we got Lucas Jumlan who

558
00:28:44.400 --> 00:28:47.680
<v Speaker 1>just won that huge pot off Malcolm Trainer, He's cruising

559
00:28:48.119 --> 00:28:50.359
<v Speaker 1>well over one hundred million, and now you've got Gags

560
00:28:50.400 --> 00:28:53.519
<v Speaker 1>storming up the leaderboard thanks to taking out hosting Ens

561
00:28:53.640 --> 00:28:55.759
<v Speaker 1>on just kind of a sick way to go for

562
00:28:55.920 --> 00:28:58.039
<v Speaker 1>Enzon because that's just such a standard spot and you

563
00:28:58.079 --> 00:29:00.480
<v Speaker 1>just get unlucky to run into it. But but yeah,

564
00:29:00.519 --> 00:29:04.000
<v Speaker 1>but that's the spot. So at this stage, right it's

565
00:29:04.119 --> 00:29:07.640
<v Speaker 1>it's Jumalan as as the chip leader. He's clearly feeling it.

566
00:29:07.960 --> 00:29:10.559
<v Speaker 1>His rail is freaking awesome. They are allowed, they are

567
00:29:10.559 --> 00:29:13.759
<v Speaker 1>supporting their guy. Oftentimes he's like, you know, kind of

568
00:29:13.799 --> 00:29:16.920
<v Speaker 1>celebrating them, whether that's just at the table with some

569
00:29:16.920 --> 00:29:19.400
<v Speaker 1>some hand motions or whatever, or maybe he's going over

570
00:29:19.440 --> 00:29:21.680
<v Speaker 1>to the rail like it's it's a really cool atmosphere

571
00:29:21.680 --> 00:29:25.279
<v Speaker 1>between them. So with twelve left, they're playing six and six,

572
00:29:25.680 --> 00:29:28.400
<v Speaker 1>Remco catches up with Lucas Jumalan on one of the

573
00:29:28.400 --> 00:29:30.319
<v Speaker 1>breaks and he wanted to get a sense for how

574
00:29:30.359 --> 00:29:32.519
<v Speaker 1>the kid's feeling in this moment, because he's the freaking

575
00:29:32.559 --> 00:29:34.920
<v Speaker 1>chip leader and he's cruising with twelve players left in

576
00:29:34.960 --> 00:29:38.200
<v Speaker 1>the WSVP main events. So here's that conversation right now.

577
00:29:38.240 --> 00:29:40.839
<v Speaker 1>Remco and Lucas Jumalan.

578
00:29:41.240 --> 00:29:44.359
<v Speaker 3>Lucas massive moment, twelve left in the main what are

579
00:29:44.359 --> 00:29:45.200
<v Speaker 3>you feeling right now?

580
00:29:46.039 --> 00:29:49.759
<v Speaker 11>I mean, it really hasn't set in yet. Like obviously

581
00:29:49.880 --> 00:29:53.119
<v Speaker 11>super blessed to be here, but I don't think I'll

582
00:29:53.119 --> 00:29:56.039
<v Speaker 11>really feel anything until it's like completely over. So I'm

583
00:29:56.079 --> 00:29:59.039
<v Speaker 11>just trying to say locked in, centered and focused and

584
00:29:59.680 --> 00:30:00.240
<v Speaker 11>do my thing.

585
00:30:00.759 --> 00:30:03.799
<v Speaker 3>What's it like to have so much support on the rail?

586
00:30:04.240 --> 00:30:06.559
<v Speaker 11>It means the world, I've told them over and over again.

587
00:30:06.599 --> 00:30:09.000
<v Speaker 11>I'm so thankful that for all the love and all

588
00:30:09.000 --> 00:30:11.279
<v Speaker 11>the support and everybody who's here and everybody who is not,

589
00:30:12.000 --> 00:30:15.519
<v Speaker 11>And yeah, it's just truly a blessing and a dream

590
00:30:15.519 --> 00:30:15.960
<v Speaker 11>come true.

591
00:30:16.400 --> 00:30:17.559
<v Speaker 2>This event is so long.

592
00:30:18.079 --> 00:30:20.599
<v Speaker 3>Have you noticed any shifts in your mindset, your approach

593
00:30:20.759 --> 00:30:21.960
<v Speaker 3>as we got through the days?

594
00:30:23.279 --> 00:30:24.039
<v Speaker 6>No, not really.

595
00:30:24.240 --> 00:30:27.000
<v Speaker 11>I think I've stayed pretty grinded and center the whole time.

596
00:30:27.319 --> 00:30:30.160
<v Speaker 11>There's been some highs and some lows I've had. I

597
00:30:30.279 --> 00:30:32.599
<v Speaker 11>had five thousand ships in this thing at five hundred

598
00:30:32.599 --> 00:30:38.200
<v Speaker 11>big blind, So pretty incredible to be here, truly truly special.

599
00:30:39.119 --> 00:30:41.000
<v Speaker 3>The big part you played where you had Jacks full

600
00:30:41.480 --> 00:30:44.759
<v Speaker 3>put into words what was going through your mind on

601
00:30:44.799 --> 00:30:45.759
<v Speaker 3>the river when he was.

602
00:30:45.720 --> 00:30:48.200
<v Speaker 6>Thinking of the call hero me, hero me, hero me?

603
00:30:50.279 --> 00:30:53.000
<v Speaker 3>And then one final thought, we're getting closer to the

604
00:30:53.039 --> 00:30:53.519
<v Speaker 3>final table.

605
00:30:53.559 --> 00:30:55.599
<v Speaker 2>How many players around.

606
00:30:55.240 --> 00:30:56.920
<v Speaker 3>You or you've played against do you think are trying

607
00:30:56.960 --> 00:30:58.039
<v Speaker 3>to get to the final table?

608
00:30:58.240 --> 00:30:59.839
<v Speaker 2>And what's your view on this next.

609
00:31:00.519 --> 00:31:02.720
<v Speaker 11>I don't really want to give that away as of

610
00:31:02.799 --> 00:31:03.240
<v Speaker 11>right now.

611
00:31:04.079 --> 00:31:04.720
<v Speaker 2>So there you go.

612
00:31:05.400 --> 00:31:07.799
<v Speaker 1>The kid is just doing it at this time, loves

613
00:31:07.799 --> 00:31:11.039
<v Speaker 1>the support behind him, loves what he's doing here. He's

614
00:31:11.279 --> 00:31:14.000
<v Speaker 1>he's clicking all the right buttons. And when when someone

615
00:31:14.119 --> 00:31:17.200
<v Speaker 1>like this is dialed in, you can just really start

616
00:31:17.240 --> 00:31:20.680
<v Speaker 1>to sense it that it just might be their tournament.

617
00:31:20.759 --> 00:31:24.079
<v Speaker 1>Now that said, I'm sure I've said that many times.

618
00:31:24.319 --> 00:31:27.440
<v Speaker 1>I kind of started to say with Malcolm trainer after

619
00:31:27.559 --> 00:31:31.000
<v Speaker 1>yesterday's performance, but you know, it can all kind of

620
00:31:31.000 --> 00:31:33.000
<v Speaker 1>start to fall away, but we'll see how it goes.

621
00:31:33.119 --> 00:31:38.079
<v Speaker 1>Of course, with Lucas Jumalan Antonio Galliana, he ends up

622
00:31:38.119 --> 00:31:41.200
<v Speaker 1>going out in twelve for five hundred and ten thousand dollars.

623
00:31:41.240 --> 00:31:45.599
<v Speaker 1>He called off to a four bet jam against Michael Gagliano.

624
00:31:45.680 --> 00:31:50.680
<v Speaker 1>He called off did Galiana with ace queen off. Looked

625
00:31:50.680 --> 00:31:54.319
<v Speaker 1>like a pretty pained decision from him, but ultimately made

626
00:31:54.319 --> 00:31:57.839
<v Speaker 1>the call and he ran right into Gags's ace, king

627
00:31:57.960 --> 00:32:00.960
<v Speaker 1>off the ace king off whole and all of a sudden,

628
00:32:01.000 --> 00:32:03.599
<v Speaker 1>we have another player in the tournament who is up

629
00:32:03.640 --> 00:32:07.279
<v Speaker 1>over one hundred million in chips, and this is Michael

630
00:32:07.720 --> 00:32:11.119
<v Speaker 1>Gags Gagliano believe this put him up to one hundred

631
00:32:11.119 --> 00:32:16.000
<v Speaker 1>and two million. That said, it didn't last all that long.

632
00:32:16.200 --> 00:32:21.559
<v Speaker 1>Greg Mueller gets into a big clash with Gagliano once again.

633
00:32:21.599 --> 00:32:25.440
<v Speaker 1>It's Ace King for Gagliano. He's up against the Queens

634
00:32:25.480 --> 00:32:30.359
<v Speaker 1>for FBT, the classic of the classic races. Here the

635
00:32:30.480 --> 00:32:33.799
<v Speaker 1>Queens end up holding for Mueller, he doubles up to

636
00:32:33.839 --> 00:32:37.240
<v Speaker 1>get up to fifty six million, he clips gags back

637
00:32:37.279 --> 00:32:40.720
<v Speaker 1>down to fifty seven million. And then meanwhile you have

638
00:32:40.920 --> 00:32:43.640
<v Speaker 1>Juemlan who has now built his stack up to one

639
00:32:43.720 --> 00:32:46.240
<v Speaker 1>hundred and fifty five million in chips. So I just

640
00:32:46.279 --> 00:32:48.559
<v Speaker 1>said how he won that big pot off trainer he

641
00:32:48.559 --> 00:32:51.559
<v Speaker 1>gets up to one hundred and twenty five million, he's

642
00:32:51.559 --> 00:32:53.799
<v Speaker 1>looking really strong, of course, and then he's just went

643
00:32:53.880 --> 00:32:56.799
<v Speaker 1>in more chips is Jummlan, and now with eleven left

644
00:32:56.799 --> 00:32:59.519
<v Speaker 1>he's up to one hundred and fifty five million. Then

645
00:32:59.559 --> 00:33:03.960
<v Speaker 1>we had Toga Karrakaiah busting in eleventh place, taking home

646
00:33:04.079 --> 00:33:07.160
<v Speaker 1>three quarters of a million dollars seven hundred and fifty

647
00:33:07.720 --> 00:33:11.759
<v Speaker 1>thousand dollars. His Ace ten Off lost to Jamie Chevelle.

648
00:33:11.920 --> 00:33:15.680
<v Speaker 1>Chevelle's jacks no help for the ace ten off and

649
00:33:15.960 --> 00:33:21.960
<v Speaker 1>Karrakaia was gone in eleventh, so ten players remain short break.

650
00:33:22.079 --> 00:33:25.799
<v Speaker 1>They all get situated around one table. I kind of

651
00:33:25.839 --> 00:33:27.720
<v Speaker 1>wish that they would play five and five. I do

652
00:33:27.839 --> 00:33:31.519
<v Speaker 1>understand that from a viewing perspective, it's easier to put

653
00:33:31.519 --> 00:33:34.319
<v Speaker 1>players on one table, but I kind of wish that

654
00:33:34.359 --> 00:33:37.759
<v Speaker 1>they would play five and five and then just I

655
00:33:37.759 --> 00:33:39.720
<v Speaker 1>almost wish that they would play hand for hand and

656
00:33:39.759 --> 00:33:42.640
<v Speaker 1>then for the production or for the product, play one

657
00:33:42.640 --> 00:33:44.680
<v Speaker 1>hand at one table, go to the other table, play

658
00:33:44.720 --> 00:33:46.640
<v Speaker 1>and just go back and forth right like that would

659
00:33:46.640 --> 00:33:47.240
<v Speaker 1>be kind of cool.

660
00:33:47.279 --> 00:33:47.680
<v Speaker 9>I think.

661
00:33:47.880 --> 00:33:50.200
<v Speaker 1>I know that might extend things a little bit, but

662
00:33:50.240 --> 00:33:53.559
<v Speaker 1>at this point, I mean, everything's just extended, So who cares.

663
00:33:53.960 --> 00:33:57.200
<v Speaker 1>The shortest stack when there were ten players left was

664
00:33:57.319 --> 00:34:01.640
<v Speaker 1>the Cypriot Eva Gorris Eva Gore with thirteen big blinds.

665
00:34:02.319 --> 00:34:07.160
<v Speaker 1>Mario Boose was slightly ahead of him with sixteen big blinds,

666
00:34:07.160 --> 00:34:10.079
<v Speaker 1>and then Jumalan was the chip leader. He was sitting

667
00:34:10.119 --> 00:34:13.480
<v Speaker 1>on one hundred and eight big blinds. On the very

668
00:34:13.719 --> 00:34:18.280
<v Speaker 1>first hand of ten handed play at the unofficial final table,

669
00:34:18.719 --> 00:34:23.159
<v Speaker 1>Eva Goru doubles through Malcolm Trainer. It folds to Trainer

670
00:34:23.159 --> 00:34:26.280
<v Speaker 1>in the small blind he jams with Queen aid Off,

671
00:34:27.119 --> 00:34:29.960
<v Speaker 1>can't really blame him. Decent hand to do so does

672
00:34:30.000 --> 00:34:32.719
<v Speaker 1>have some blocker properties, and you are going up against

673
00:34:32.760 --> 00:34:35.760
<v Speaker 1>a player and Eva Goru who has been a little

674
00:34:35.760 --> 00:34:38.840
<v Speaker 1>bit more on the conservative side throughout the later stages

675
00:34:38.880 --> 00:34:41.639
<v Speaker 1>of this event. But Eva Goro did find a call

676
00:34:41.719 --> 00:34:44.599
<v Speaker 1>with King seven of Clubs for his twelve big blind

677
00:34:44.679 --> 00:34:47.760
<v Speaker 1>so he was able to double up through Malcolm Trainer

678
00:34:47.760 --> 00:34:51.719
<v Speaker 1>and that left Malcolm Trainer with just seven point six

679
00:34:52.159 --> 00:34:55.119
<v Speaker 1>big blinds. So it makes Trainer the short sex the

680
00:34:55.159 --> 00:34:58.639
<v Speaker 1>trainer cos from start of day Chip Leader with twenty

681
00:34:58.639 --> 00:35:01.119
<v Speaker 1>one left. Where I'm sitting here on the last episode

682
00:35:01.159 --> 00:35:03.360
<v Speaker 1>talking about how I expect him to make the final table.

683
00:35:03.400 --> 00:35:05.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I guess technically he did make the final table,

684
00:35:06.280 --> 00:35:08.760
<v Speaker 1>at least not the official one. And here he is

685
00:35:08.920 --> 00:35:12.840
<v Speaker 1>ten left, getting clipped down to fewer than eight big blinds,

686
00:35:12.840 --> 00:35:14.599
<v Speaker 1>and he's really gonna have to fight for things. Here

687
00:35:15.440 --> 00:35:18.639
<v Speaker 1>there's a shot though that he could get to the

688
00:35:18.679 --> 00:35:21.400
<v Speaker 1>official final table, and we could see Malcolm Trainer in

689
00:35:21.480 --> 00:35:24.400
<v Speaker 1>August because Mario Boos gets all of his money in

690
00:35:24.960 --> 00:35:27.639
<v Speaker 1>twelve point six big blinds on a three bet jam

691
00:35:27.679 --> 00:35:31.880
<v Speaker 1>with pocket tens against hand Fang's ace king the tens

692
00:35:32.119 --> 00:35:35.119
<v Speaker 1>hold to double for boost. He's able to double up.

693
00:35:35.320 --> 00:35:37.639
<v Speaker 1>Fang is still doing all right on chips, and you know,

694
00:35:37.679 --> 00:35:40.639
<v Speaker 1>if you're Trainer and you're Israel, obviously you want boost

695
00:35:40.639 --> 00:35:42.559
<v Speaker 1>to bus so you can lock up that additional two

696
00:35:42.639 --> 00:35:45.079
<v Speaker 1>hundred and fifty thousand dollars. There wasn't a pay jump

697
00:35:45.119 --> 00:35:48.800
<v Speaker 1>from eleven to ten. Both eleven and tenth get seven

698
00:35:48.840 --> 00:35:52.119
<v Speaker 1>hundred and fifty k, and then ninth place gets a million,

699
00:35:52.199 --> 00:35:54.119
<v Speaker 1>So this is where that quarter of a million dollar

700
00:35:54.199 --> 00:35:57.760
<v Speaker 1>pay jump comes in. So they play a while ten

701
00:35:57.840 --> 00:36:00.239
<v Speaker 1>handed play. You know, some players are winning pots. A

702
00:36:00.280 --> 00:36:03.440
<v Speaker 1>whole ton of aggression was happening. You know, players kind

703
00:36:03.440 --> 00:36:06.719
<v Speaker 1>of really understood the situation. And then ultimately, you know,

704
00:36:06.760 --> 00:36:09.159
<v Speaker 1>Trainer goes through the blinds one time. He's down to

705
00:36:10.000 --> 00:36:12.679
<v Speaker 1>his last four big lines in the big line. After

706
00:36:12.719 --> 00:36:16.840
<v Speaker 1>he posts the big blind anti Jumalan opens with a

707
00:36:17.000 --> 00:36:20.440
<v Speaker 1>raise with King Queen off. Trainer defends his big line

708
00:36:20.519 --> 00:36:24.519
<v Speaker 1>with jack four clubs. It comes eight eighty four, so

709
00:36:24.960 --> 00:36:28.400
<v Speaker 1>Trainer's got two pair here. He pulls off the stop

710
00:36:28.440 --> 00:36:30.400
<v Speaker 1>and go all in. He moves all in for his

711
00:36:30.480 --> 00:36:33.599
<v Speaker 1>last two big lines. Jumalan calls getting a really good

712
00:36:33.599 --> 00:36:36.360
<v Speaker 1>price and it comes. It's the sickest way that it

713
00:36:36.400 --> 00:36:38.920
<v Speaker 1>could come. It doesn't come a king, it doesn't come

714
00:36:38.960 --> 00:36:43.639
<v Speaker 1>a queen. It comes running nine to nine to counterfeit

715
00:36:43.800 --> 00:36:48.039
<v Speaker 1>the two pair for Malcolm Trainer. Give Lucas Jumalan the

716
00:36:48.079 --> 00:36:52.119
<v Speaker 1>pot and send the Aussie out the door in tenth place. Now,

717
00:36:52.719 --> 00:36:56.840
<v Speaker 1>Malcolm Trainner played incredible. I thought it's a great result

718
00:36:57.000 --> 00:36:59.800
<v Speaker 1>seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars for him. I'm sure

719
00:36:59.840 --> 00:37:02.960
<v Speaker 1>he's going to be left wanting more. But after the

720
00:37:03.000 --> 00:37:06.159
<v Speaker 1>success that he has had over these last two years,

721
00:37:06.639 --> 00:37:09.079
<v Speaker 1>I think this kid just has to absolutely hold his

722
00:37:09.119 --> 00:37:14.119
<v Speaker 1>head high. He sounds like a very solid, sound individual

723
00:37:14.199 --> 00:37:16.960
<v Speaker 1>who is going to do great things in poker. You know,

724
00:37:17.000 --> 00:37:19.880
<v Speaker 1>he's had some great results so far, and if he

725
00:37:19.920 --> 00:37:22.079
<v Speaker 1>can you know, I talked about that quote, you know,

726
00:37:22.159 --> 00:37:24.199
<v Speaker 1>after he won the AUSI millions, that he told Poker

727
00:37:24.239 --> 00:37:26.639
<v Speaker 1>News that he's basically dedicated his life to the game

728
00:37:26.679 --> 00:37:29.280
<v Speaker 1>for the last eight years. If he's able to keep

729
00:37:29.320 --> 00:37:32.519
<v Speaker 1>going in the direction that he's been going in and

730
00:37:32.599 --> 00:37:35.719
<v Speaker 1>keep working hard, you know, just putting his head down

731
00:37:35.760 --> 00:37:38.519
<v Speaker 1>and grinding through it, he he's gonna win a boatload

732
00:37:38.559 --> 00:37:41.760
<v Speaker 1>of money in this game Malcolm Trainer, so kudos to

733
00:37:41.840 --> 00:37:44.320
<v Speaker 1>him a great run. Unfortunate that he had to bust

734
00:37:44.360 --> 00:37:47.400
<v Speaker 1>in tenth place, but someone had to and ultimately it

735
00:37:47.679 --> 00:37:51.960
<v Speaker 1>was the Ausie. So then we were left with nine.

736
00:37:52.039 --> 00:37:55.880
<v Speaker 1>Lucas Jumlan. He did knock out Malcolm Trainer in tenth place.

737
00:37:56.320 --> 00:37:59.840
<v Speaker 1>He's going to be bagging one hundred and ninety four

738
00:38:00.519 --> 00:38:04.400
<v Speaker 1>million chips, which is good for one hundred and twenty

739
00:38:04.679 --> 00:38:08.480
<v Speaker 1>nine big blinds when the final table is going to

740
00:38:08.480 --> 00:38:11.880
<v Speaker 1>resume on August third. That is a giant That is

741
00:38:11.920 --> 00:38:14.119
<v Speaker 1>a massive shout out, massive once again.

742
00:38:14.920 --> 00:38:15.480
<v Speaker 2>Chip lead.

743
00:38:16.079 --> 00:38:19.079
<v Speaker 1>Rami Hamoud out of Canada is in second place with

744
00:38:19.159 --> 00:38:23.719
<v Speaker 1>seventy nine million, so he's got one hundred and fifteen

745
00:38:23.840 --> 00:38:28.760
<v Speaker 1>million more than second place. I mean, that's just that's wild.

746
00:38:29.199 --> 00:38:33.760
<v Speaker 1>Fifty three big lines for Hamoud. Jamie Chevelle comes in

747
00:38:33.840 --> 00:38:37.400
<v Speaker 1>third here, fifty six million for him, thirty seven big blinds.

748
00:38:37.800 --> 00:38:42.800
<v Speaker 1>Chevell is a player who he's predominantly a cash game player.

749
00:38:43.119 --> 00:38:46.079
<v Speaker 1>I spoke with him after the final table was made.

750
00:38:46.840 --> 00:38:49.159
<v Speaker 1>He's making his eighth cash in this event. I went

751
00:38:49.199 --> 00:38:51.000
<v Speaker 1>over that on the last episode. If you guys want

752
00:38:51.039 --> 00:38:52.760
<v Speaker 1>to go back, if you miss that, but his eighth

753
00:38:52.800 --> 00:38:55.880
<v Speaker 1>cash in this event. This is of course his best finished.

754
00:38:56.280 --> 00:38:58.039
<v Speaker 1>So let's just play that that little chat that I

755
00:38:58.119 --> 00:39:01.239
<v Speaker 1>had with Jamie Chevelle after found table wrapped up. Now

756
00:39:01.719 --> 00:39:03.320
<v Speaker 1>we can get to hear from him a little bit.

757
00:39:03.360 --> 00:39:05.400
<v Speaker 1>We haven't heard from him yet, but he was pumped.

758
00:39:05.400 --> 00:39:07.320
<v Speaker 1>He was absolutely pumped to make it, and it was

759
00:39:07.360 --> 00:39:09.480
<v Speaker 1>a pleasure to chat with him. So here's that that

760
00:39:09.599 --> 00:39:12.679
<v Speaker 1>talk right now. All right, I'm here with Jamie Chavelle,

761
00:39:12.800 --> 00:39:15.079
<v Speaker 1>just made the main men final table. You're a man

762
00:39:15.119 --> 00:39:16.920
<v Speaker 1>who has a lot of history with this event. I

763
00:39:16.920 --> 00:39:19.360
<v Speaker 1>think it's eight cashes. Now, what is it about this

764
00:39:19.400 --> 00:39:21.159
<v Speaker 1>tournament that allows you to succeed.

765
00:39:20.880 --> 00:39:21.719
<v Speaker 6>As a poker player.

766
00:39:21.920 --> 00:39:25.960
<v Speaker 12>Honestly, is the only tournament I've played so so, but no,

767
00:39:26.320 --> 00:39:29.079
<v Speaker 12>I think it's just because I play cash games.

768
00:39:29.119 --> 00:39:30.280
<v Speaker 6>That's my main thing.

769
00:39:30.320 --> 00:39:32.679
<v Speaker 12>And in this tournament is more like cash games, at

770
00:39:32.719 --> 00:39:35.000
<v Speaker 12>least in the first couple of days than any other tournament.

771
00:39:35.199 --> 00:39:38.440
<v Speaker 12>It's a really cool, slow, deep structure plays to my

772
00:39:38.800 --> 00:39:40.800
<v Speaker 12>what I know, I guess and I don't know. I

773
00:39:40.800 --> 00:39:43.239
<v Speaker 12>don't really know how I've I mean, I've cashed a lot,

774
00:39:43.280 --> 00:39:45.199
<v Speaker 12>but I've never had anything like this before, so this

775
00:39:45.280 --> 00:39:47.119
<v Speaker 12>is pretty unturned waters for man.

776
00:39:47.159 --> 00:39:51.320
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, at this in this tournament, right, you start

777
00:39:51.360 --> 00:39:53.039
<v Speaker 1>going deeper and deeper and deeper. And you've had some

778
00:39:53.079 --> 00:39:55.880
<v Speaker 1>deep runs before, but obviously nothing like this before. At

779
00:39:55.880 --> 00:39:58.280
<v Speaker 1>what point in this run did it really become real

780
00:39:58.320 --> 00:40:00.639
<v Speaker 1>and start just thinking like, Okay, I got a shot

781
00:40:00.639 --> 00:40:01.440
<v Speaker 1>at the fun table.

782
00:40:02.000 --> 00:40:04.920
<v Speaker 12>It's really strange, but I felt very different this run

783
00:40:05.000 --> 00:40:08.079
<v Speaker 12>than any run I've had in the past. For whatever reason,

784
00:40:08.159 --> 00:40:12.239
<v Speaker 12>I've just been much more relaxed and appreciative of everything

785
00:40:12.239 --> 00:40:16.599
<v Speaker 12>happening and not worried about making a mistake or stressed out.

786
00:40:17.960 --> 00:40:20.000
<v Speaker 12>And I've just played very free and I think that's

787
00:40:20.039 --> 00:40:24.079
<v Speaker 12>probably helped a bit. Obviously I've had tremendous luck along

788
00:40:24.119 --> 00:40:26.039
<v Speaker 12>the way to get here, as we all have.

789
00:40:26.199 --> 00:40:28.239
<v Speaker 6>But yeah, I don't know.

790
00:40:28.239 --> 00:40:30.639
<v Speaker 12>Maybe maybe it's just the experience factors helped me out,

791
00:40:30.719 --> 00:40:34.360
<v Speaker 12>but it's it's been a unique run for me, I guess.

792
00:40:33.880 --> 00:40:34.679
<v Speaker 6>Different from the rest.

793
00:40:35.039 --> 00:40:38.119
<v Speaker 1>You had one big hands the nut flush straw against

794
00:40:38.159 --> 00:40:39.960
<v Speaker 1>the set of fours with the straight draw as well.

795
00:40:40.280 --> 00:40:42.039
<v Speaker 1>Talk me through that moment you get all your chips

796
00:40:42.079 --> 00:40:43.159
<v Speaker 1>in it such a big spun.

797
00:40:44.400 --> 00:40:47.960
<v Speaker 12>I'll tell you that the rush and the adrenaline from

798
00:40:48.000 --> 00:40:50.679
<v Speaker 12>that is really unlike anything else in life, you can't

799
00:40:50.719 --> 00:40:53.519
<v Speaker 12>you cannot really simulate that in anything else.

800
00:40:53.559 --> 00:40:56.599
<v Speaker 6>It's just a very very unique, very.

801
00:40:56.480 --> 00:40:59.519
<v Speaker 12>Cool happy to have won that one obviously, kind of

802
00:40:59.519 --> 00:41:01.880
<v Speaker 12>shows you the butterfly ef back from tournaments is crazy, right.

803
00:41:02.360 --> 00:41:04.920
<v Speaker 12>If the other gentleman had, you know, haired the board

804
00:41:05.159 --> 00:41:07.679
<v Speaker 12>or just won that hand, he might be here and

805
00:41:07.719 --> 00:41:10.039
<v Speaker 12>I'm not. And I mean that's what's cool about tournaments

806
00:41:10.119 --> 00:41:13.519
<v Speaker 12>is just you know, any one little thing can dictate

807
00:41:13.760 --> 00:41:14.559
<v Speaker 12>everybody's faith.

808
00:41:14.599 --> 00:41:14.960
<v Speaker 6>It's cool.

809
00:41:15.079 --> 00:41:17.599
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, a couple weeks off now before the final table,

810
00:41:18.119 --> 00:41:19.480
<v Speaker 1>any ideas of what you're gonna do.

811
00:41:19.559 --> 00:41:22.320
<v Speaker 6>Go home, just chill, hang out, run up my normal life.

812
00:41:22.360 --> 00:41:23.000
<v Speaker 6>It won't change.

813
00:41:23.000 --> 00:41:26.000
<v Speaker 12>I've got a couple of awesome kids at home, and

814
00:41:26.519 --> 00:41:28.280
<v Speaker 12>you know, I've played poker. Back at home, I've got

815
00:41:28.280 --> 00:41:30.440
<v Speaker 12>a really great group of guys that I've played poker with.

816
00:41:30.480 --> 00:41:32.960
<v Speaker 6>So you know, it'll be my business as usual for me.

817
00:41:34.119 --> 00:41:36.360
<v Speaker 1>You heard it there from Jamie. Not much is gonna

818
00:41:36.400 --> 00:41:38.880
<v Speaker 1>change between now and August third. Gonna go back to

819
00:41:38.920 --> 00:41:41.519
<v Speaker 1>his normal life, go back to his family, his kids,

820
00:41:42.280 --> 00:41:43.920
<v Speaker 1>and just you know, I guess, kind of rest and

821
00:41:43.960 --> 00:41:46.679
<v Speaker 1>relax and get ready to go for the final table

822
00:41:46.760 --> 00:42:02.639
<v Speaker 1>in August. Fourth place coming in in August will be

823
00:42:02.960 --> 00:42:06.760
<v Speaker 1>mister FBT, Greg Mueller forty eight and a half million

824
00:42:06.800 --> 00:42:10.280
<v Speaker 1>for him thirty two big blinds. He caught up with

825
00:42:10.440 --> 00:42:14.880
<v Speaker 1>Remco right after play. I think I'm pretty sure, he said.

826
00:42:15.119 --> 00:42:16.679
<v Speaker 1>Right at the beginning of the interview, he got a

827
00:42:16.679 --> 00:42:19.880
<v Speaker 1>phone call from the head coach of the Ottawa Senators.

828
00:42:20.039 --> 00:42:23.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I was talking to his good buddy Sean

829
00:42:23.360 --> 00:42:27.400
<v Speaker 1>Buchanan Bucky on the rail and Bucky has been coaching

830
00:42:27.440 --> 00:42:31.280
<v Speaker 1>him from I think day four, just really really helping

831
00:42:31.320 --> 00:42:34.400
<v Speaker 1>him the whole way through getting him to this final table.

832
00:42:34.440 --> 00:42:35.840
<v Speaker 1>And then Bucky was also telling me that, you know,

833
00:42:35.880 --> 00:42:37.840
<v Speaker 1>if he makes his final table. This was you know,

834
00:42:37.840 --> 00:42:39.679
<v Speaker 1>I think when they were ten handed and he said,

835
00:42:39.679 --> 00:42:42.599
<v Speaker 1>you know, if Greg makes the final table, then you know,

836
00:42:42.639 --> 00:42:46.199
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking tons of hockey guys. X NHL A is

837
00:42:46.239 --> 00:42:48.280
<v Speaker 1>all going to be coming out making a thing of it.

838
00:42:48.360 --> 00:42:51.159
<v Speaker 1>So this is pretty cool. You know, Greg does have

839
00:42:51.199 --> 00:42:55.920
<v Speaker 1>that that X either semi pro pro hockey background, knows

840
00:42:55.960 --> 00:42:57.320
<v Speaker 1>a lot of those guys. He does a lot of

841
00:42:57.360 --> 00:43:01.639
<v Speaker 1>stuff with the Vancouver Canucks organization, so I expect Greg

842
00:43:01.639 --> 00:43:06.079
<v Speaker 1>Greg's rail. It wasn't as rowdy just yet, but come August,

843
00:43:06.360 --> 00:43:09.599
<v Speaker 1>there's gonna be a lot of FBT supporters there, so

844
00:43:09.679 --> 00:43:12.719
<v Speaker 1>that's that's really cool. But anyway, here is Greg Mueller

845
00:43:13.000 --> 00:43:15.920
<v Speaker 1>after making the final table with Remcom Greener.

846
00:43:15.960 --> 00:43:16.559
<v Speaker 2>I'll call you back.

847
00:43:16.599 --> 00:43:17.840
<v Speaker 9>It's an interview city over here.

848
00:43:18.320 --> 00:43:22.840
<v Speaker 13>Call you back, coach of the Ottawa Senators.

849
00:43:23.360 --> 00:43:23.880
<v Speaker 6>Beautiful.

850
00:43:24.159 --> 00:43:26.719
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, talk to me of the response, the energy,

851
00:43:26.960 --> 00:43:27.880
<v Speaker 3>what's happening right now?

852
00:43:28.000 --> 00:43:29.079
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, I mean, I'll be honest.

853
00:43:29.880 --> 00:43:32.960
<v Speaker 13>What I learned out of this, other than the poker stuff,

854
00:43:33.039 --> 00:43:35.440
<v Speaker 13>was how blessed I am in life. I have so

855
00:43:35.559 --> 00:43:40.760
<v Speaker 13>many people cheering for me, like rooting genuinely for me,

856
00:43:42.119 --> 00:43:44.199
<v Speaker 13>that itself feels amazing no matter what place I come

857
00:43:44.199 --> 00:43:47.239
<v Speaker 13>in on the final table, just the love and support

858
00:43:47.239 --> 00:43:50.320
<v Speaker 13>I have from my family and friends is undescribable.

859
00:43:50.920 --> 00:43:53.679
<v Speaker 3>Was this almost like a thing that you needed to

860
00:43:53.760 --> 00:43:54.599
<v Speaker 3>be reminded of that?

861
00:43:56.199 --> 00:43:56.360
<v Speaker 6>No?

862
00:43:56.440 --> 00:43:59.599
<v Speaker 9>I mean I always know that I have a wicked support.

863
00:43:59.239 --> 00:44:04.079
<v Speaker 13>Group, but it just I needed it for my poker prowess,

864
00:44:04.119 --> 00:44:06.760
<v Speaker 13>like I was, you know, like it's just like, hey, hey,

865
00:44:07.119 --> 00:44:08.360
<v Speaker 13>if I want to play, I can.

866
00:44:08.559 --> 00:44:11.559
<v Speaker 3>You know, this run is so insane on so many

867
00:44:11.559 --> 00:44:12.280
<v Speaker 3>different levels.

868
00:44:12.599 --> 00:44:13.800
<v Speaker 2>But talk to me about the.

869
00:44:13.760 --> 00:44:17.800
<v Speaker 3>Closing hours here As you get closer while still knowing

870
00:44:17.840 --> 00:44:21.320
<v Speaker 3>that there's traps everywhere and you could be eleventh or

871
00:44:21.400 --> 00:44:23.000
<v Speaker 3>tenth and then all of a sudden, the experience is

872
00:44:23.079 --> 00:44:23.559
<v Speaker 3>very different.

873
00:44:23.840 --> 00:44:26.880
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, I mean, you know, the money's very big, obviously,

874
00:44:27.239 --> 00:44:30.119
<v Speaker 13>But to me when we were ten handed, what was

875
00:44:30.159 --> 00:44:32.840
<v Speaker 13>more important was for me to get on ESPN as

876
00:44:32.880 --> 00:44:35.840
<v Speaker 13>a final nine, more so than the pay jump of

877
00:44:35.880 --> 00:44:39.440
<v Speaker 13>getting to the final nine. Just I just think the fun,

878
00:44:39.840 --> 00:44:44.719
<v Speaker 13>the opportunities for me with my you know, personality, I

879
00:44:44.719 --> 00:44:45.559
<v Speaker 13>thought I thought it was.

880
00:44:45.559 --> 00:44:47.400
<v Speaker 6>Important for me to make to make the feed the

881
00:44:47.440 --> 00:44:48.000
<v Speaker 6>final table.

882
00:44:48.360 --> 00:44:51.239
<v Speaker 3>The gloves will really come off when you come back.

883
00:44:51.519 --> 00:44:53.800
<v Speaker 3>You already talked about wanting to get a little fitter.

884
00:44:54.159 --> 00:44:56.639
<v Speaker 3>What can we expect from you and the rail I

885
00:44:56.679 --> 00:44:59.599
<v Speaker 3>know that I think hockey town will be all over

886
00:44:59.639 --> 00:45:00.199
<v Speaker 3>this thing.

887
00:45:00.599 --> 00:45:01.360
<v Speaker 2>What's gonna happen?

888
00:45:01.880 --> 00:45:03.719
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, I mean the one thing is now that I'm here,

889
00:45:03.800 --> 00:45:07.840
<v Speaker 13>I'm gonna have a lot less like I'll have way

890
00:45:07.920 --> 00:45:10.119
<v Speaker 13>less fear, you know what i mean, because I'm I'm

891
00:45:10.119 --> 00:45:12.320
<v Speaker 13>still gonna play correctly, but I'm saying, you know, like

892
00:45:12.599 --> 00:45:14.639
<v Speaker 13>towards the end, you gotta clamp up if you want

893
00:45:14.639 --> 00:45:16.960
<v Speaker 13>to guarantee yourself a seat. And not that I really did,

894
00:45:17.280 --> 00:45:19.480
<v Speaker 13>I didn't have any hands to play, and I was

895
00:45:19.599 --> 00:45:20.599
<v Speaker 13>okay with that, you know.

896
00:45:22.199 --> 00:45:23.159
<v Speaker 9>But yeah, now that.

897
00:45:23.119 --> 00:45:27.679
<v Speaker 13>I'm there, I'm looking to win, not squeak up and

898
00:45:28.639 --> 00:45:30.119
<v Speaker 13>I seem myself into fifth.

899
00:45:30.679 --> 00:45:31.440
<v Speaker 6>I'm looking to win.

900
00:45:31.960 --> 00:45:34.800
<v Speaker 13>So if there's a chance for me to go for it, I'm.

901
00:45:34.679 --> 00:45:35.239
<v Speaker 9>Going for it.

902
00:45:35.760 --> 00:45:38.559
<v Speaker 3>Who's coming out, who's gonna be on your rail off?

903
00:45:38.800 --> 00:45:39.480
<v Speaker 2>Give us some names?

904
00:45:39.719 --> 00:45:44.199
<v Speaker 13>I mean, first and foremost, my buddy Sean Buchanan, who's

905
00:45:44.199 --> 00:45:46.480
<v Speaker 13>been instrumental in this whole run with me. I'll I'll

906
00:45:46.480 --> 00:45:50.360
<v Speaker 13>be honest. He has been on my ass about my phone,

907
00:45:50.599 --> 00:45:54.440
<v Speaker 13>my my demeanor, Get up off the table, put the

908
00:45:54.480 --> 00:45:57.960
<v Speaker 13>hoodie on, focus, no emotions, Let's go go to bed

909
00:45:58.039 --> 00:46:01.320
<v Speaker 13>like I'm not kidding twenty four to seven. Amongst discussing hands,

910
00:46:01.320 --> 00:46:04.239
<v Speaker 13>hand history, doing the research of the other players, he's

911
00:46:04.280 --> 00:46:06.920
<v Speaker 13>been it's almost like I love the team atmosphere. It's

912
00:46:06.920 --> 00:46:08.519
<v Speaker 13>almost like it's been a team after truthfully.

913
00:46:09.679 --> 00:46:12.719
<v Speaker 1>Next up we have Michael Gagliano. I caught up with

914
00:46:12.760 --> 00:46:16.280
<v Speaker 1>Gags after he reached the final table and did a

915
00:46:16.280 --> 00:46:18.960
<v Speaker 1>couple of interviews. Forty six point five million in the bag,

916
00:46:19.440 --> 00:46:23.719
<v Speaker 1>thirty one big lines for him. Gags made a deep run.

917
00:46:23.800 --> 00:46:25.880
<v Speaker 1>I think it was last year one hundred and fortieth place.

918
00:46:25.920 --> 00:46:27.480
<v Speaker 1>If not, it was the year before, but I'm pretty

919
00:46:27.480 --> 00:46:29.920
<v Speaker 1>sure it was last year. And then here, you know,

920
00:46:29.960 --> 00:46:33.360
<v Speaker 1>it's just I mean, he's a lifetime grinder. It is Gagliano.

921
00:46:33.400 --> 00:46:36.000
<v Speaker 1>He's been doing this for many, many, many years, and

922
00:46:36.039 --> 00:46:39.400
<v Speaker 1>now here he is at Pokerspinnacle the WSP Main Event

923
00:46:39.440 --> 00:46:41.280
<v Speaker 1>Final Table, and I wanted to chat with him about it.

924
00:46:41.320 --> 00:46:45.800
<v Speaker 1>So let's hear from Gagliano. All right, Michael Gagliano here

925
00:46:45.960 --> 00:46:49.119
<v Speaker 1>just made the WSP Main Event Final table. You've just

926
00:46:49.199 --> 00:46:51.880
<v Speaker 1>someone who's been around the industry for a long time.

927
00:46:52.039 --> 00:46:54.039
<v Speaker 1>You know, you've put in a lot of years on

928
00:46:54.079 --> 00:46:56.880
<v Speaker 1>the felt Did you ever think it would culminate in

929
00:46:56.920 --> 00:46:57.559
<v Speaker 1>this achievement?

930
00:46:57.599 --> 00:46:57.840
<v Speaker 8>Leason?

931
00:46:58.360 --> 00:47:00.559
<v Speaker 9>I mean I have to obviously say no.

932
00:47:01.960 --> 00:47:06.079
<v Speaker 14>You know, well, listen, everybody dreams of making you know,

933
00:47:06.159 --> 00:47:08.480
<v Speaker 14>the main and men final table. And like I was

934
00:47:08.519 --> 00:47:11.639
<v Speaker 14>talking to Romie, like he said, kept keep saying like

935
00:47:11.679 --> 00:47:13.199
<v Speaker 14>it doesn't feel real, doesn't feel real.

936
00:47:14.719 --> 00:47:16.320
<v Speaker 9>I've played quite a number of tournaments.

937
00:47:16.400 --> 00:47:19.960
<v Speaker 14>I don't really get too nervous, even deep there's obviously

938
00:47:19.960 --> 00:47:23.440
<v Speaker 14>a level of like anxiety. I felt much more nervous

939
00:47:23.480 --> 00:47:26.199
<v Speaker 14>on day four than I did on basically any of

940
00:47:26.239 --> 00:47:29.559
<v Speaker 14>the other days. I don't really know why I had

941
00:47:29.599 --> 00:47:31.719
<v Speaker 14>a good stack, but it just like, going throughout the day,

942
00:47:31.760 --> 00:47:32.360
<v Speaker 14>I felt like.

943
00:47:33.280 --> 00:47:34.880
<v Speaker 9>It was just like I felt. I felt it was

944
00:47:34.920 --> 00:47:36.159
<v Speaker 9>just a little more nervous than usual.

945
00:47:36.199 --> 00:47:37.760
<v Speaker 14>I had a couple of tough table draws and I

946
00:47:37.840 --> 00:47:43.280
<v Speaker 14>just was like, I'm not super comfortable. And I ended

947
00:47:43.280 --> 00:47:47.679
<v Speaker 14>the day reasonably poorly and I only bagged about fourteen bigs,

948
00:47:48.599 --> 00:47:49.880
<v Speaker 14>and I kind of felt like I was just like

949
00:47:49.920 --> 00:47:53.880
<v Speaker 14>out honestly, which obviously it wasn't, but I felt like, well,

950
00:47:53.920 --> 00:47:54.800
<v Speaker 14>I only have fourteen bigs.

951
00:47:54.840 --> 00:47:56.320
<v Speaker 9>I'm just gonna do my best. I played this a.

952
00:47:56.280 --> 00:47:59.679
<v Speaker 14>Million times, you know, I've grinded these stacks online, and uh.

953
00:48:00.840 --> 00:48:01.760
<v Speaker 9>I came into the day.

954
00:48:01.639 --> 00:48:05.159
<v Speaker 14>Just feeling like very clear headed and really good. And

955
00:48:05.960 --> 00:48:07.519
<v Speaker 14>I got it in bad. I got an ace cream

956
00:48:07.599 --> 00:48:09.119
<v Speaker 14>ers ace king, and I hit a queen in the

957
00:48:09.199 --> 00:48:10.840
<v Speaker 14>river and the guy sitting next to me told me

958
00:48:10.840 --> 00:48:13.480
<v Speaker 14>how the guy before me, who was there, I guess,

959
00:48:13.480 --> 00:48:14.360
<v Speaker 14>got really bad beat.

960
00:48:14.400 --> 00:48:16.440
<v Speaker 9>And he's like, oh, you're this seat is hot.

961
00:48:16.440 --> 00:48:17.920
<v Speaker 14>Now You're you're in good shape, And I was like,

962
00:48:17.960 --> 00:48:20.599
<v Speaker 14>all right, Like sure, he watched me hit the queen

963
00:48:20.639 --> 00:48:21.000
<v Speaker 14>and then.

964
00:48:20.920 --> 00:48:23.079
<v Speaker 9>I just didn't lose Apop for like eight hours.

965
00:48:22.760 --> 00:48:25.920
<v Speaker 14>And uh, because I guess I had felt like kind

966
00:48:25.920 --> 00:48:27.639
<v Speaker 14>of mentally like I was already out of him, and

967
00:48:27.719 --> 00:48:29.239
<v Speaker 14>I'm just gonna like, all right, we're just gonna see

968
00:48:29.280 --> 00:48:30.719
<v Speaker 14>what happens now and just see how far I can

969
00:48:30.760 --> 00:48:33.559
<v Speaker 14>go and do my best. But I don't know, this

970
00:48:33.679 --> 00:48:36.440
<v Speaker 14>part of it doesn't feel real. But uh, I'm here

971
00:48:36.559 --> 00:48:37.639
<v Speaker 14>so too.

972
00:48:37.960 --> 00:48:39.920
<v Speaker 1>Talk to me a little bit about the dynamics towards

973
00:48:40.000 --> 00:48:42.920
<v Speaker 1>the end before making the final table. Your table had

974
00:48:42.960 --> 00:48:45.159
<v Speaker 1>all the chips and the other table didn't have that

975
00:48:45.239 --> 00:48:47.440
<v Speaker 1>many chips. You know, just talk about going through that

976
00:48:47.519 --> 00:48:49.199
<v Speaker 1>and having to battle with a lot of other big

977
00:48:49.199 --> 00:48:50.960
<v Speaker 1>stacks and in a lot of ways have to be

978
00:48:51.039 --> 00:48:52.280
<v Speaker 1>cautious weirdly.

979
00:48:52.760 --> 00:48:55.480
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, it was definitely a little awkward. I mean, we

980
00:48:55.559 --> 00:48:57.480
<v Speaker 9>hit the top five and the bottom five work of

981
00:48:57.519 --> 00:49:00.960
<v Speaker 9>the table. We were joking that they weren't playing, they

982
00:49:01.000 --> 00:49:01.760
<v Speaker 9>were just sitting there.

983
00:49:02.519 --> 00:49:03.880
<v Speaker 14>And when we got to the final table, we were

984
00:49:03.920 --> 00:49:06.480
<v Speaker 14>kind of needling the guys a bit saying that. Somebody said, oh,

985
00:49:06.519 --> 00:49:07.679
<v Speaker 14>we went to get dinner, and I was like, all right,

986
00:49:07.679 --> 00:49:11.119
<v Speaker 14>we figured we saw the chip stacks weren't moving, But

987
00:49:11.400 --> 00:49:13.079
<v Speaker 14>now they had a couple of LANs, but nobody busted

988
00:49:13.119 --> 00:49:14.360
<v Speaker 14>and they just kept swapping stacks.

989
00:49:14.360 --> 00:49:15.880
<v Speaker 9>It was like one guy hit ten, guy twenty and

990
00:49:15.880 --> 00:49:16.760
<v Speaker 9>then they just swapped.

991
00:49:16.760 --> 00:49:19.440
<v Speaker 14>So yeah, we had a bunch of a bunch of

992
00:49:19.480 --> 00:49:24.039
<v Speaker 14>good players, a bunch of big stacks. I don't know,

993
00:49:24.440 --> 00:49:26.639
<v Speaker 14>it just was. It was definitely like a little more cautious.

994
00:49:26.679 --> 00:49:29.400
<v Speaker 14>I think people were afraid to play really big pots rightfully.

995
00:49:29.440 --> 00:49:32.280
<v Speaker 14>So there were a couple of big bets, some like

996
00:49:32.320 --> 00:49:34.559
<v Speaker 14>reasonable sized pots, but nothing too crazy.

997
00:49:35.480 --> 00:49:36.960
<v Speaker 9>But I don't know, I'll see.

998
00:49:36.639 --> 00:49:38.320
<v Speaker 14>Maybe on the footage, maybe we're getting a little more

999
00:49:38.360 --> 00:49:40.719
<v Speaker 14>out of line than I thought they were, So we'll see.

1000
00:49:40.960 --> 00:49:42.880
<v Speaker 1>Speaking of playing big pots, you played a big one

1001
00:49:42.880 --> 00:49:45.559
<v Speaker 1>with Greg Mueller, your ace King versus Queens. You know,

1002
00:49:45.559 --> 00:49:47.000
<v Speaker 1>you got it up to one hundred million. You guys

1003
00:49:47.039 --> 00:49:50.400
<v Speaker 1>played that big pot. Is there any sort of kind

1004
00:49:50.440 --> 00:49:52.360
<v Speaker 1>of doubt that might creep in in that moment where

1005
00:49:52.360 --> 00:49:54.519
<v Speaker 1>it's like, hmm, maybe this might go the other way?

1006
00:49:54.599 --> 00:49:56.239
<v Speaker 1>Or how do you kind of recenter yourself and then

1007
00:49:56.280 --> 00:49:57.000
<v Speaker 1>stay focused.

1008
00:49:57.920 --> 00:50:00.599
<v Speaker 14>I mean, it's poker. Every hand is nice win. Every

1009
00:50:00.599 --> 00:50:02.000
<v Speaker 14>time you get all in, you want to win, if

1010
00:50:02.000 --> 00:50:03.480
<v Speaker 14>it's for four big ones or forty.

1011
00:50:04.679 --> 00:50:06.079
<v Speaker 9>Some of them you win, some of them you lose.

1012
00:50:06.159 --> 00:50:06.519
<v Speaker 9>I don't know.

1013
00:50:06.559 --> 00:50:08.840
<v Speaker 14>I kind of sometimes when I'm sitting there, I'm always

1014
00:50:08.840 --> 00:50:10.440
<v Speaker 14>I think like, oh, this would be a nice one

1015
00:50:10.519 --> 00:50:12.840
<v Speaker 14>to win, like, but they're all nice to win, you know,

1016
00:50:14.800 --> 00:50:16.159
<v Speaker 14>So I don't know, I just kind of just sit

1017
00:50:16.159 --> 00:50:17.039
<v Speaker 14>there and see what happens.

1018
00:50:17.039 --> 00:50:18.760
<v Speaker 9>I don't know. That was a big flip for sure.

1019
00:50:18.960 --> 00:50:21.920
<v Speaker 14>I told somebody else like that definitely changing the dynamic

1020
00:50:21.920 --> 00:50:23.719
<v Speaker 14>because I was more right in the middle of the

1021
00:50:23.760 --> 00:50:26.159
<v Speaker 14>pack with everyone else, and Lucas, you know, obviously had

1022
00:50:26.199 --> 00:50:29.280
<v Speaker 14>all the ships because I was like almost I wasn't

1023
00:50:29.360 --> 00:50:30.920
<v Speaker 14>saying I was I won't say it was competing with him,

1024
00:50:30.920 --> 00:50:33.239
<v Speaker 14>but like I was up to maybe almost one hundred

1025
00:50:33.239 --> 00:50:34.880
<v Speaker 14>mil and he had like one forty.

1026
00:50:34.639 --> 00:50:36.800
<v Speaker 9>So like we were definitely getting there.

1027
00:50:38.360 --> 00:50:40.440
<v Speaker 14>But then once I, me and Greg had the same

1028
00:50:40.440 --> 00:50:43.280
<v Speaker 14>stacks again, it was like just anybody's game. So it's

1029
00:50:43.360 --> 00:50:44.679
<v Speaker 14>kind of the way it is now. I mean, Lucas

1030
00:50:44.719 --> 00:50:47.159
<v Speaker 14>has a bunch, but there's so many stacks that are

1031
00:50:47.199 --> 00:50:51.000
<v Speaker 14>just right there, one or two bots. If somebody doubles

1032
00:50:51.000 --> 00:50:55.320
<v Speaker 14>through Lucas, they're gonna be like right there. So it's

1033
00:50:55.360 --> 00:50:57.360
<v Speaker 14>really wide open still and anything can happen.

1034
00:50:57.519 --> 00:50:59.039
<v Speaker 9>So I guess we'll.

1035
00:50:58.920 --> 00:51:01.039
<v Speaker 1>Say you play all a lot of intense poker to

1036
00:51:01.039 --> 00:51:03.360
<v Speaker 1>get to this point. It's very hard, it's very grueling,

1037
00:51:03.400 --> 00:51:05.360
<v Speaker 1>it's taxing on you. What do you got in store

1038
00:51:05.400 --> 00:51:07.239
<v Speaker 1>for these next couple of weeks before the final table?

1039
00:51:07.719 --> 00:51:09.400
<v Speaker 14>I mean, I'm gonna sit on the couch and watch

1040
00:51:09.400 --> 00:51:11.519
<v Speaker 14>a lot of TV for at least twenty four hours,

1041
00:51:12.760 --> 00:51:14.119
<v Speaker 14>but I don't know.

1042
00:51:14.559 --> 00:51:17.199
<v Speaker 9>It's two weeks or so. It's it's a slightly awkward

1043
00:51:17.239 --> 00:51:17.840
<v Speaker 9>amount of time.

1044
00:51:18.599 --> 00:51:20.719
<v Speaker 14>I kind of gonna go home to New Jersey, which is,

1045
00:51:20.960 --> 00:51:24.400
<v Speaker 14>you know, not a short fight, but then I'm gonna

1046
00:51:24.400 --> 00:51:26.320
<v Speaker 14>have to come like right back. So I don't exactly

1047
00:51:26.400 --> 00:51:29.559
<v Speaker 14>know what I'm gonna do yet. But tomorrow's a couch day,

1048
00:51:29.559 --> 00:51:31.159
<v Speaker 14>that's for sure. I think the World Cup is on,

1049
00:51:31.239 --> 00:51:33.760
<v Speaker 14>so I'm just gonna watch that and just see what happens.

1050
00:51:34.719 --> 00:51:37.880
<v Speaker 1>It sounds very workman like, is is I think how

1051
00:51:37.880 --> 00:51:42.480
<v Speaker 1>I would describe, you know, Michael Gagliano, And it's I

1052
00:51:42.559 --> 00:51:44.800
<v Speaker 1>understand I think what he's saying at the beginning when

1053
00:51:44.800 --> 00:51:48.000
<v Speaker 1>I asked him, you know, do you expect to be here?

1054
00:51:48.079 --> 00:51:49.639
<v Speaker 1>Did you ever expect that you would make it here?

1055
00:51:49.679 --> 00:51:51.000
<v Speaker 1>And he was kind of like, well, I have to

1056
00:51:51.039 --> 00:51:53.440
<v Speaker 1>say yes that that, or sorry, I have to say

1057
00:51:53.440 --> 00:51:55.360
<v Speaker 1>no that. I would have never expected it. But in

1058
00:51:55.400 --> 00:51:59.000
<v Speaker 1>a way, I think when you are in the game

1059
00:51:59.039 --> 00:52:04.559
<v Speaker 1>for so long and you're playing specifically your specialty is

1060
00:52:04.599 --> 00:52:08.239
<v Speaker 1>nolam at Holdham tournaments, and the volume that Michael Gagliano

1061
00:52:08.320 --> 00:52:11.400
<v Speaker 1>puts in, and probably how confident he is in himself

1062
00:52:11.440 --> 00:52:16.400
<v Speaker 1>at the table, you you probably think that the dream

1063
00:52:16.480 --> 00:52:19.440
<v Speaker 1>is a little bit more of a possible reality just

1064
00:52:19.519 --> 00:52:23.760
<v Speaker 1>given the shots at it that you give yourself, right

1065
00:52:23.880 --> 00:52:26.559
<v Speaker 1>Versus if you're just a person who comes out and plays,

1066
00:52:26.679 --> 00:52:29.039
<v Speaker 1>you know, one or two tournaments here and there, maybe

1067
00:52:29.079 --> 00:52:31.880
<v Speaker 1>you ultimately don't think that that reality could ever really

1068
00:52:31.880 --> 00:52:34.559
<v Speaker 1>become true just because you're not firing at it all

1069
00:52:34.599 --> 00:52:38.639
<v Speaker 1>the time. But you know, Gags, I think is just

1070
00:52:38.639 --> 00:52:41.199
<v Speaker 1>confident in himself that he thought, you know, yeah, like

1071
00:52:41.480 --> 00:52:43.679
<v Speaker 1>I can do this, Like I can make this happen

1072
00:52:43.880 --> 00:52:46.760
<v Speaker 1>eventually in my career. And here he is twenty twenty six.

1073
00:52:46.960 --> 00:52:50.519
<v Speaker 1>He's at the FSB Main Event final table. Rounding out

1074
00:52:50.639 --> 00:52:53.360
<v Speaker 1>the final nine. We got Mario Boos out of France

1075
00:52:53.559 --> 00:52:57.000
<v Speaker 1>forty four million for him twenty nine big lines. Lori

1076
00:52:57.360 --> 00:53:00.159
<v Speaker 1>Sasclatti out of Finland thirty seven point five. I have

1077
00:53:00.199 --> 00:53:04.039
<v Speaker 1>a million, that's twenty five big blinds. Han feg bagged

1078
00:53:04.159 --> 00:53:07.840
<v Speaker 1>twenty five million, seventeen big blinds, and then Eva Gorris

1079
00:53:07.920 --> 00:53:11.559
<v Speaker 1>Eva Goru out of Cyprus twenty two and a half million,

1080
00:53:11.719 --> 00:53:16.119
<v Speaker 1>fifteen big blinds. So it's very interesting how the stacks

1081
00:53:16.440 --> 00:53:19.840
<v Speaker 1>shape out here because you got a giant chip leader

1082
00:53:20.360 --> 00:53:22.920
<v Speaker 1>in Lucas Jumalan. Now I did think it was a

1083
00:53:22.960 --> 00:53:25.599
<v Speaker 1>little bit interesting because I was I was watching kind

1084
00:53:25.599 --> 00:53:28.599
<v Speaker 1>of where the crowd was while I was while there

1085
00:53:28.679 --> 00:53:30.960
<v Speaker 1>was ten handed at the one table, and you could

1086
00:53:31.000 --> 00:53:33.519
<v Speaker 1>see the play and the stats were up on the

1087
00:53:33.559 --> 00:53:36.800
<v Speaker 1>screen that all the viewers could could see their inside

1088
00:53:36.800 --> 00:53:40.480
<v Speaker 1>Paris by the stage, and it didn't seem like Jumalan

1089
00:53:40.519 --> 00:53:44.480
<v Speaker 1>at this point was being too aggressive with ten players left.

1090
00:53:44.519 --> 00:53:46.559
<v Speaker 1>I thought he would have been a little bit more aggressive,

1091
00:53:47.000 --> 00:53:50.760
<v Speaker 1>just because there were some very short stacks, namely Malcolm Trainer.

1092
00:53:50.800 --> 00:53:53.599
<v Speaker 1>But then also, you know, Fang was relatively short, Eva

1093
00:53:53.639 --> 00:53:56.480
<v Speaker 1>Gouru short, you know, or at least Fang was shorter

1094
00:53:56.639 --> 00:53:59.920
<v Speaker 1>once Boost doubled through him. But I thought with that

1095
00:54:00.079 --> 00:54:03.440
<v Speaker 1>chip lead and being the younger aggressive player that Jumalan

1096
00:54:03.599 --> 00:54:05.320
<v Speaker 1>was he might have opened a little bit more and

1097
00:54:05.360 --> 00:54:08.639
<v Speaker 1>tried to take advantage of the spot. I did see

1098
00:54:08.639 --> 00:54:13.599
<v Speaker 1>one kind of probably half joking tweet that said he

1099
00:54:13.599 --> 00:54:16.360
<v Speaker 1>should have folded to trainer's shove just to keep him

1100
00:54:16.360 --> 00:54:18.880
<v Speaker 1>around longer so that he could continue to chip up more.

1101
00:54:19.760 --> 00:54:22.000
<v Speaker 1>But I mean, whatever, you're you're locking up a two

1102
00:54:22.039 --> 00:54:23.679
<v Speaker 1>hundred fifty k pag jump, You're getting this thing to

1103
00:54:23.679 --> 00:54:26.119
<v Speaker 1>the fontine when you've got a giant chiplead. So you know,

1104
00:54:26.159 --> 00:54:28.679
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that was all that serious in this spot,

1105
00:54:28.840 --> 00:54:32.440
<v Speaker 1>but it will be interesting come August when they return.

1106
00:54:32.599 --> 00:54:35.599
<v Speaker 1>You know what the approach is for Jumlan And I

1107
00:54:35.639 --> 00:54:38.480
<v Speaker 1>think we'll get a sense of that pretty early on,

1108
00:54:38.559 --> 00:54:40.400
<v Speaker 1>Like is he just going to come in kind of

1109
00:54:40.480 --> 00:54:44.039
<v Speaker 1>right away, just laying the hammer down, Like let's say,

1110
00:54:44.079 --> 00:54:46.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, within the first one to two hands Romi

1111
00:54:46.920 --> 00:54:50.360
<v Speaker 1>Hamood decides to open. Is Jumalan just going to decide

1112
00:54:50.360 --> 00:54:53.000
<v Speaker 1>to come with a three bet and see if he

1113
00:54:53.039 --> 00:54:55.920
<v Speaker 1>can be like no, like, listen, I'm the chip leader,

1114
00:54:56.000 --> 00:54:58.039
<v Speaker 1>I'm the table captain. Okay, Like that's how this is

1115
00:54:58.039 --> 00:55:00.920
<v Speaker 1>going to work out. But we'll see, right and a

1116
00:55:01.000 --> 00:55:03.599
<v Speaker 1>lot of these stacks, you know, I know, Rami Hamud

1117
00:55:03.679 --> 00:55:06.920
<v Speaker 1>is kind of he separated himself enough from the pack

1118
00:55:07.039 --> 00:55:08.760
<v Speaker 1>that he can kind of chill out a little bit

1119
00:55:08.760 --> 00:55:14.880
<v Speaker 1>there in second place. But then Chevelle Mueller, Gagliano, Mario Boos, Sascolatti,

1120
00:55:15.159 --> 00:55:18.079
<v Speaker 1>they're all between twenty five and thirty seven big lines,

1121
00:55:18.400 --> 00:55:21.280
<v Speaker 1>so they're really gonna be like just kind of locked

1122
00:55:21.320 --> 00:55:24.280
<v Speaker 1>in the ICM jail cell while we see what happens

1123
00:55:24.320 --> 00:55:27.519
<v Speaker 1>with Han Feng and Eva gors Eva Goru, who are

1124
00:55:27.559 --> 00:55:30.320
<v Speaker 1>sub twenty right, So it's going to be very interesting

1125
00:55:30.320 --> 00:55:33.639
<v Speaker 1>to see how it all shakes out come August. The

1126
00:55:33.679 --> 00:55:38.000
<v Speaker 1>final nine, as I mentioned, are guaranteed one million dollars.

1127
00:55:38.599 --> 00:55:41.519
<v Speaker 1>The pay jump is two hundred and fifty K up

1128
00:55:41.519 --> 00:55:43.400
<v Speaker 1>to eighth, two hundred and fifty K up to seven,

1129
00:55:43.440 --> 00:55:46.039
<v Speaker 1>two hundred and fifty K up to sixth, and then

1130
00:55:46.079 --> 00:55:48.679
<v Speaker 1>we go five hundred K up to fifth place, fifth

1131
00:55:48.679 --> 00:55:51.360
<v Speaker 1>place getting two point twenty five million. Then we go

1132
00:55:51.400 --> 00:55:53.559
<v Speaker 1>another five hundred K up to two point seven five

1133
00:55:53.599 --> 00:55:56.519
<v Speaker 1>million for fourth place, Then we jump a million up

1134
00:55:56.599 --> 00:56:00.440
<v Speaker 1>to third place three point seven five million. We jump

1135
00:56:00.519 --> 00:56:02.760
<v Speaker 1>from third to second at least, you know, the biggest

1136
00:56:02.800 --> 00:56:06.599
<v Speaker 1>so far, up to six million dollars for second place,

1137
00:56:06.599 --> 00:56:08.599
<v Speaker 1>and then of course the biggest jump of them all

1138
00:56:08.639 --> 00:56:13.119
<v Speaker 1>four million dollars from second to first place of ten

1139
00:56:13.800 --> 00:56:18.239
<v Speaker 1>million dollars. And that's it. That's the pot, and that's

1140
00:56:18.239 --> 00:56:21.000
<v Speaker 1>the WSIP Main Event Final Table.

1141
00:56:21.880 --> 00:56:22.199
<v Speaker 2>Listen.

1142
00:56:22.239 --> 00:56:24.880
<v Speaker 1>I hope you guys had as much fun as I

1143
00:56:24.960 --> 00:56:29.280
<v Speaker 1>did following this tournament. This is the best tournament in

1144
00:56:29.320 --> 00:56:32.599
<v Speaker 1>the world. I think it's truly incredible. I absolutely love

1145
00:56:32.639 --> 00:56:36.119
<v Speaker 1>it every single year. The final table, I think is

1146
00:56:36.159 --> 00:56:39.920
<v Speaker 1>gonna be pretty electric. I know we can kind of

1147
00:56:39.960 --> 00:56:42.440
<v Speaker 1>look back at the start of day eight and we

1148
00:56:42.480 --> 00:56:45.199
<v Speaker 1>can say, oh, we missed out on Todd Brunson. Oh

1149
00:56:45.280 --> 00:56:48.719
<v Speaker 1>we don't have Brock Wilson. Oh the twenty nineteen champ,

1150
00:56:48.760 --> 00:56:51.559
<v Speaker 1>that story with hosting Ensign, we lost that. We didn't

1151
00:56:51.599 --> 00:56:55.519
<v Speaker 1>get arguably the greatest WICIP player in the world right now,

1152
00:56:55.559 --> 00:56:58.679
<v Speaker 1>Sean Deep. We don't get him either. But you know,

1153
00:56:58.880 --> 00:57:01.079
<v Speaker 1>I think it's okay. I think it's okay. And one

1154
00:57:01.079 --> 00:57:02.960
<v Speaker 1>of the reasons why I think it's okay is because

1155
00:57:03.760 --> 00:57:06.639
<v Speaker 1>so much of the Final table at Atmosphere has to

1156
00:57:06.639 --> 00:57:09.960
<v Speaker 1>do with the rails that are there and the excitement

1157
00:57:10.039 --> 00:57:13.239
<v Speaker 1>that they bring to it all. We know what Lucas

1158
00:57:13.320 --> 00:57:15.960
<v Speaker 1>Jumlan's rail is going to be They've they've been strong

1159
00:57:16.079 --> 00:57:18.519
<v Speaker 1>for the past day and a half, two days, right.

1160
00:57:19.079 --> 00:57:21.280
<v Speaker 1>We have a good idea of Greg Mueller's rail that's

1161
00:57:21.320 --> 00:57:24.559
<v Speaker 1>going to be showing up in August. The French rail

1162
00:57:24.599 --> 00:57:26.760
<v Speaker 1>for Mario Boose was very very strong.

1163
00:57:27.719 --> 00:57:27.880
<v Speaker 6>You know.

1164
00:57:27.920 --> 00:57:29.920
<v Speaker 1>I think we're gonna get a lot of these other rails.

1165
00:57:30.079 --> 00:57:32.000
<v Speaker 1>The han Fang rail, you know, I think that that

1166
00:57:32.039 --> 00:57:35.960
<v Speaker 1>one can be quite nice also, So the louder these

1167
00:57:36.039 --> 00:57:39.280
<v Speaker 1>rails are, the more fun that atmosphere is going to be.

1168
00:57:39.320 --> 00:57:41.880
<v Speaker 1>And ultimately, this is poker's biggest stage. These guys are

1169
00:57:41.880 --> 00:57:44.719
<v Speaker 1>playing for millions of dollars, ten million dollars up top,

1170
00:57:44.800 --> 00:57:47.000
<v Speaker 1>so it's it's gonna be electric no matter what, and

1171
00:57:47.039 --> 00:57:48.880
<v Speaker 1>I can't wait to see it all play out. I

1172
00:57:48.880 --> 00:57:52.719
<v Speaker 1>believe the plan is August third on ESPN two and

1173
00:57:52.760 --> 00:57:57.320
<v Speaker 1>then August fourth and fifth on ESPN, So that's pretty cool.

1174
00:57:57.400 --> 00:57:59.840
<v Speaker 1>They're gonna have some episodes between now and then that

1175
00:58:00.119 --> 00:58:02.760
<v Speaker 1>going to be getting released. Hopefully that helps build the

1176
00:58:02.760 --> 00:58:08.639
<v Speaker 1>buzz for this final table. Over the interim between now

1177
00:58:08.719 --> 00:58:12.039
<v Speaker 1>and August third, I know I'm gonna be buckling down,

1178
00:58:12.239 --> 00:58:16.239
<v Speaker 1>probably grabbing some popcorn, sitting on my couch and watching

1179
00:58:16.280 --> 00:58:19.760
<v Speaker 1>the entire coverage from start to finish. You know, that's

1180
00:58:19.760 --> 00:58:21.760
<v Speaker 1>one of the things I love to do every single year.

1181
00:58:21.880 --> 00:58:24.880
<v Speaker 1>I thought the coverage was, you know, pretty attractive this

1182
00:58:24.960 --> 00:58:27.360
<v Speaker 1>year in terms of getting us sucked in. I just

1183
00:58:27.400 --> 00:58:28.920
<v Speaker 1>didn't get to watch a lot of it because I

1184
00:58:28.960 --> 00:58:31.480
<v Speaker 1>was there trying to do the whole working thing, also

1185
00:58:31.519 --> 00:58:32.760
<v Speaker 1>playing in the event myself.

1186
00:58:32.800 --> 00:58:33.199
<v Speaker 6>All of that.

1187
00:58:33.280 --> 00:58:35.199
<v Speaker 1>I did watch the last couple of days as being

1188
00:58:35.280 --> 00:58:37.719
<v Speaker 1>at home sick, and I can't go back. I can't

1189
00:58:37.760 --> 00:58:40.599
<v Speaker 1>wait to go back and watch the whole thing start

1190
00:58:40.639 --> 00:58:42.800
<v Speaker 1>to finish. That's what I'm gonna be doing with my time.

1191
00:58:42.840 --> 00:58:45.039
<v Speaker 1>I would encourage you guys to do the same, and

1192
00:58:45.119 --> 00:58:48.199
<v Speaker 1>then we'll see you on August third for the Final Table.

1193
00:58:48.280 --> 00:58:50.760
<v Speaker 1>Day one of the Final Table. It's going to be

1194
00:58:50.920 --> 00:58:54.360
<v Speaker 1>a fun one. So that's it. That's the pod for

1195
00:58:54.440 --> 00:58:57.719
<v Speaker 1>producer Rich. My name is Donnie Peters. It's a pleasure

1196
00:58:57.880 --> 00:59:00.599
<v Speaker 1>as always, guys. We'll probably we have a few more

1197
00:59:00.639 --> 00:59:02.480
<v Speaker 1>pods coming up in these next couple of days because

1198
00:59:02.480 --> 00:59:05.239
<v Speaker 1>the DOUBSIP is still going on. So while we are

1199
00:59:05.320 --> 00:59:09.199
<v Speaker 1>wrapping UPSIP main event coverage, maybe we'll hit on some

1200
00:59:09.280 --> 00:59:12.239
<v Speaker 1>things here or there. As it pertains. This event, we'll

1201
00:59:12.280 --> 00:59:14.760
<v Speaker 1>be coming with some stuff in the future as well,

1202
00:59:14.800 --> 00:59:16.880
<v Speaker 1>probably the next two days for sure as we wrap

1203
00:59:16.960 --> 00:59:19.440
<v Speaker 1>things up, and then we'll see what we cook up

1204
00:59:19.679 --> 00:59:22.960
<v Speaker 1>in the few weeks off leading up to August. It's

1205
00:59:22.960 --> 00:59:24.840
<v Speaker 1>been a pleasure, guys. I will talk to you guys

1206
00:59:25.199 --> 00:59:25.719
<v Speaker 1>next time.
