00:00:10.880 --> 00:00:12.880
<v Speaker 1>Hello, everyone, Welcome back to a new episode oh of

2
00:00:12.919 --> 00:00:16.519
<v Speaker 1>the Poker Go Podcast. My name is Donnie Peters. It

3
00:00:16.600 --> 00:00:21.160
<v Speaker 1>is officially Sunday, July fifth. We just skipped right through

4
00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:26.399
<v Speaker 1>good old Independence Day twelve forty four. Am here yours

5
00:00:26.399 --> 00:00:30.839
<v Speaker 1>truly did put chips in the bag on Day one

6
00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:35.759
<v Speaker 1>C of the WSOP main event, bagging up forty five

7
00:00:36.359 --> 00:00:40.200
<v Speaker 1>nine hundred. Yes, that is less than the sixty k

8
00:00:40.320 --> 00:00:43.640
<v Speaker 1>starting stack. But I went into the last level with

9
00:00:43.799 --> 00:00:46.880
<v Speaker 1>eleven thousand, six hundred chips, and I was all in

10
00:00:46.920 --> 00:00:49.640
<v Speaker 1>on the third hand of that last level for eleven thousand.

11
00:00:49.679 --> 00:00:51.640
<v Speaker 1>Because I was in the big line posted that six

12
00:00:51.759 --> 00:00:54.880
<v Speaker 1>hundred big line, Anti got all in Kings versus Ace

13
00:00:54.960 --> 00:00:59.000
<v Speaker 1>King held doubled up, went on a nice little late

14
00:00:59.119 --> 00:01:02.439
<v Speaker 1>night surge to get back to a respectable stack. Feels

15
00:01:02.439 --> 00:01:05.040
<v Speaker 1>like a million. Feels like a million chips in the

16
00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:09.000
<v Speaker 1>bag after the day I had. I'll talk a little

17
00:01:09.000 --> 00:01:12.319
<v Speaker 1>bit about that later on in the show. Of course,

18
00:01:12.359 --> 00:01:14.000
<v Speaker 1>we do want to run through some of the stuff

19
00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:19.239
<v Speaker 1>that happened on Day one C of the WSOP main event.

20
00:01:19.319 --> 00:01:21.680
<v Speaker 1>Because I was playing, I'm not as in tune with

21
00:01:21.799 --> 00:01:23.920
<v Speaker 1>exactly what was going on out there, but I'll do

22
00:01:23.959 --> 00:01:26.040
<v Speaker 1>my best. You know, we'll touch on a lot of

23
00:01:26.079 --> 00:01:29.879
<v Speaker 1>the other stuff that happened around the World Series of Poker,

24
00:01:29.920 --> 00:01:31.760
<v Speaker 1>and then you know, we'll get we'll get up on

25
00:01:31.799 --> 00:01:35.519
<v Speaker 1>out of here. Right, It's gonna be Sunday, and Sunday

26
00:01:35.640 --> 00:01:39.159
<v Speaker 1>is day one d I would expect the numbers to

27
00:01:39.239 --> 00:01:43.000
<v Speaker 1>be through the freaking roof for this final starting flight. Yes,

28

<v Speaker 1>you can register on the two day twos as well,

29
00:01:46.159 --> 00:01:49.480
<v Speaker 1>but I expect it to be a big, big, big

30
00:01:49.519 --> 00:01:54.480
<v Speaker 1>field for that final starting flight. As always, no matter

68
00:03:51.560 --> 00:03:55.280
<v Speaker 1>All right, Day one C of the Fabulous World Series

69
00:03:55.319 --> 00:04:00.159
<v Speaker 1>of Poker Main Event one thousand, five hundred and seventy

70
00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:03.280
<v Speaker 1>three entries. That is what the tally said on the

71
00:04:03.319 --> 00:04:06.360
<v Speaker 1>board in the app at the end of the day

72
00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:10.240
<v Speaker 1>on Saturday. That is down a little bit from last

73
00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:12.759
<v Speaker 1>year's Day one. See, last year had sixteen hundred and

74
00:04:12.759 --> 00:04:15.639
<v Speaker 1>seventy eight so you're looking at a decrease of six

75
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:20.240
<v Speaker 1>point three percent. Through the first three flights. Each day

76
00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:25.000
<v Speaker 1>has been in decline compared to last year. Yes, but

77
00:04:25.720 --> 00:04:27.920
<v Speaker 1>these last two starting invites not as bad as that

78
00:04:27.920 --> 00:04:29.759
<v Speaker 1>that first one was. You know, that first one was

79
00:04:29.839 --> 00:04:35.199
<v Speaker 1>negative sixteen point five percent. Overall, so far, thirty three

80
00:04:35.319 --> 00:04:38.560
<v Speaker 1>hundred and eighty three entries have been tallied in the

81
00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:41.319
<v Speaker 1>World Series of Poker. Maintament. That does not count the

82
00:04:41.360 --> 00:04:44.160
<v Speaker 1>players who are already signed up for Day one D.

83
00:04:44.279 --> 00:04:46.079
<v Speaker 1>I'm not not going to include that in that number.

84
00:04:46.160 --> 00:04:48.720
<v Speaker 1>At this point. Last year we had three thy six

85
00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:51.839
<v Speaker 1>hundred and ninety seven, so you're looking at a decrease

86
00:04:51.839 --> 00:04:54.199
<v Speaker 1>of eight and a half percent. You know, earlier we

87
00:04:54.279 --> 00:04:56.199
<v Speaker 1>kind of talked when we were talking about Day one

88
00:04:56.279 --> 00:04:58.920
<v Speaker 1>A because that one fell with a decrease of sixteen

89
00:04:58.959 --> 00:05:00.560
<v Speaker 1>and a half percent. We were saying, and you know, okay,

90
00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:02.439
<v Speaker 1>that's kind of in line with the ten to twenty

91
00:05:02.439 --> 00:05:04.439
<v Speaker 1>percent range that some of these tournaments that are down

92
00:05:04.519 --> 00:05:07.160
<v Speaker 1>have been down. But now just being down eight and

93
00:05:07.199 --> 00:05:10.199
<v Speaker 1>a half percent feels okay. You know, when you play

94
00:05:10.199 --> 00:05:12.560
<v Speaker 1>this tournament, there's a lot of downtime between hands that

95
00:05:12.560 --> 00:05:14.600
<v Speaker 1>that you're actually playing. You know, things are a little

96
00:05:14.600 --> 00:05:16.800
<v Speaker 1>bit more drawn out, so the mind does wander a

97
00:05:16.839 --> 00:05:19.600
<v Speaker 1>little bit. And at one point I did look up

98
00:05:19.600 --> 00:05:21.639
<v Speaker 1>at the board saw the number. This is kind of

99
00:05:21.639 --> 00:05:23.279
<v Speaker 1>in the last half of the night or so when

100
00:05:23.279 --> 00:05:25.920
<v Speaker 1>I said, you know what, it actually doesn't seem all

101
00:05:25.959 --> 00:05:28.439
<v Speaker 1>that bad. Now that I see the number here, you know,

102
00:05:28.560 --> 00:05:30.560
<v Speaker 1>the total through the first three flights down eight and

103
00:05:30.600 --> 00:05:32.680
<v Speaker 1>a half percent. I don't think that that's that bad.

104
00:05:32.720 --> 00:05:36.279
<v Speaker 1>I expect a big number on Day one D So

105
00:05:36.439 --> 00:05:39.519
<v Speaker 1>last year, according to Poker News, four thousand, nine hundred

106
00:05:39.560 --> 00:05:44.439
<v Speaker 1>and ninety seven entries on Day one d they ended

107
00:05:44.480 --> 00:05:46.360
<v Speaker 1>up with I think it was nine thy seven hundred

108
00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:49.639
<v Speaker 1>and thirty five. Where was the total number? I talked

109
00:05:49.639 --> 00:05:52.000
<v Speaker 1>about this either the last episode or the episode before,

110
00:05:52.040 --> 00:05:54.839
<v Speaker 1>but they finished all the starting flights with eighty six

111
00:05:54.920 --> 00:05:58.560
<v Speaker 1>hundred and ninety four, So then they got just over

112
00:05:58.959 --> 00:06:02.759
<v Speaker 1>one thousand entries for the late redge on the Day twos, right.

113
00:06:03.759 --> 00:06:06.319
<v Speaker 1>I have also said that, you know, I think that

114
00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:09.800
<v Speaker 1>people are leaning to do the day two redge a

115
00:06:09.839 --> 00:06:14.319
<v Speaker 1>little bit more so than we've seen. So overall, eight

116
00:06:14.360 --> 00:06:17.519
<v Speaker 1>and a half percent decrease not too bad. It's not

117
00:06:17.959 --> 00:06:19.839
<v Speaker 1>up over ten percent like you know, we might have

118
00:06:19.879 --> 00:06:21.680
<v Speaker 1>thought when we were coming out of that first starting

119
00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:24.040
<v Speaker 1>flight one A. If you think that, you know, you're

120
00:06:24.079 --> 00:06:26.600
<v Speaker 1>gonna be able to also make up some ground with

121
00:06:27.600 --> 00:06:31.279
<v Speaker 1>more Day two late entry, then overall, I don't I

122
00:06:31.279 --> 00:06:35.160
<v Speaker 1>don't think the numbers, you know, all that bad. You know, again,

123
00:06:35.240 --> 00:06:38.399
<v Speaker 1>anything around nine thousand above it, you know, even slightly

124
00:06:38.439 --> 00:06:41.240
<v Speaker 1>below it, I think is is plenty fine for the

125
00:06:41.279 --> 00:06:43.199
<v Speaker 1>World Series of Poker main events. You know, we were

126
00:06:43.240 --> 00:06:45.839
<v Speaker 1>always going to kind of see some pullback in one

127
00:06:45.839 --> 00:06:49.120
<v Speaker 1>of these years, like either now even last year, if

128
00:06:49.120 --> 00:06:51.199
<v Speaker 1>we would have saw it fine or some of the

129
00:06:51.279 --> 00:06:53.519
<v Speaker 1>upcoming years. So we're just seeing a little bit more

130
00:06:53.560 --> 00:06:55.920
<v Speaker 1>this year, but that's fine, you know, I think things

131
00:06:55.920 --> 00:06:59.319
<v Speaker 1>were flying a little bit too high overall, and then

132
00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:02.560
<v Speaker 1>we'll see what it gains for Day one D. You know,

133
00:07:02.319 --> 00:07:04.439
<v Speaker 1>I know a lot of people are playing. I know

134
00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:06.920
<v Speaker 1>that's kind of anecdotal, and you know, you can't really

135
00:07:06.920 --> 00:07:09.079
<v Speaker 1>I can't go out there talking to five thousand different people,

136
00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:11.680
<v Speaker 1>but I know there are a lot of people that

137
00:07:11.720 --> 00:07:15.480
<v Speaker 1>are out there gonna be blasting away on Sunday for

138
00:07:15.600 --> 00:07:17.319
<v Speaker 1>Day one D, so we'll see where that number comes in.

139
00:07:17.319 --> 00:07:19.399
<v Speaker 1>The number to beat from last year was four nine

140
00:07:19.680 --> 00:07:23.680
<v Speaker 1>and ninety seven, so we'll see how it goes. As

141
00:07:23.720 --> 00:07:26.360
<v Speaker 1>we've been doing each day, I've been trying to look

142
00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:28.600
<v Speaker 1>through the Poker News updates to find what they have

143
00:07:28.720 --> 00:07:31.480
<v Speaker 1>reported as the first bust out of the day, and

144
00:07:31.519 --> 00:07:35.639
<v Speaker 1>on Day one C it was DeWitt Nakirk who Poker

145
00:07:35.680 --> 00:07:37.920
<v Speaker 1>News has reported as the first to bust out of

146
00:07:37.959 --> 00:07:40.240
<v Speaker 1>the day. And to be honest, I got no idea

147
00:07:40.240 --> 00:07:44.519
<v Speaker 1>how new Kirk busted on this hand because he should

148
00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:49.120
<v Speaker 1>not have gone broke. They they being Poker News, caught

149
00:07:49.160 --> 00:07:50.720
<v Speaker 1>up with the hand. They're on the river it's ten

150
00:07:50.839 --> 00:07:54.480
<v Speaker 1>ten to nine, Ace Jack, don't think there's a fluster

151
00:07:54.639 --> 00:07:57.920
<v Speaker 1>on board. Newkirk's got twenty thousand in front of him.

152
00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:01.279
<v Speaker 1>Stephen Grainer puts him all in his remaining twenty six.

153
00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:05.360
<v Speaker 1>New Kirk says something to the effect is I have

154
00:08:05.439 --> 00:08:07.959
<v Speaker 1>to call and then mix the call with Queen eight.

155
00:08:08.240 --> 00:08:10.360
<v Speaker 1>Queen eight of hearts for a straight and not even

156
00:08:10.399 --> 00:08:14.120
<v Speaker 1>the nut straight because King ten or sorry King Queen,

157
00:08:14.160 --> 00:08:17.240
<v Speaker 1>excuse me, it is the nut straight here. Grainer's got

158
00:08:17.240 --> 00:08:19.560
<v Speaker 1>a full house with aces and and that's that for

159
00:08:19.680 --> 00:08:23.720
<v Speaker 1>DeWitt Na Kirk. I mean, there's several full houses on

160
00:08:23.720 --> 00:08:26.439
<v Speaker 1>this board. There's a better straight. I mean, I can't

161
00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:29.759
<v Speaker 1>I can't imagine going broke in this sort of fashion.

162
00:08:29.800 --> 00:08:31.639
<v Speaker 1>I also just kind of have no idea how this

163
00:08:31.720 --> 00:08:33.679
<v Speaker 1>even like ended up like this, you know, I mean,

164
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:36.320
<v Speaker 1>if he had Queen eight, he's chasing a gutter like

165
00:08:36.440 --> 00:08:39.919
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's just wild. Stuff goes down in the

166
00:08:40.039 --> 00:08:43.159
<v Speaker 1>WSP main event, especially early on. You just see some

167
00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:47.960
<v Speaker 1>absolutely shocking stuff. Julian Bognadov, Lawrence Brandt, Justin Rwin and

168
00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:50.399
<v Speaker 1>Freddy Deeb. They all bagged a lot of chips. For

169
00:08:50.480 --> 00:08:52.639
<v Speaker 1>much of my day, I was at a table right

170
00:08:52.720 --> 00:08:55.200
<v Speaker 1>next to Freddy Deeb's table, and every time I looked over,

171
00:08:55.320 --> 00:08:57.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, I do that thing that I've told you

172
00:08:57.320 --> 00:09:00.679
<v Speaker 1>guys about before, where when I'm under the gun, if

173
00:09:00.720 --> 00:09:03.799
<v Speaker 1>I fold my hand, I stand up, stretch the legs,

174
00:09:04.240 --> 00:09:06.679
<v Speaker 1>sit back down to get ready to go for a

175
00:09:06.679 --> 00:09:08.600
<v Speaker 1>big blind, small blind, and button, because those are the

176
00:09:08.600 --> 00:09:12.279
<v Speaker 1>three most active hands that you regularly play it. Also

177
00:09:12.600 --> 00:09:14.360
<v Speaker 1>if you do that every rotation. Now it's a little

178
00:09:14.360 --> 00:09:16.000
<v Speaker 1>bit different if you play the hand under the gun.

179
00:09:16.000 --> 00:09:18.159
<v Speaker 1>If you're dealt something you tend to miss, you know,

180
00:09:18.200 --> 00:09:21.440
<v Speaker 1>getting up from your seat. But I just like to

181
00:09:21.480 --> 00:09:23.399
<v Speaker 1>get up and stretch. I don't like to sit all

182
00:09:23.480 --> 00:09:25.919
<v Speaker 1>day every day. You know, it's just not that good

183
00:09:25.960 --> 00:09:28.480
<v Speaker 1>for you. So I do try and stretch up, or sorry,

184
00:09:28.559 --> 00:09:30.000
<v Speaker 1>stand up and stretch a little bit and all that

185
00:09:30.039 --> 00:09:31.639
<v Speaker 1>sort of stuff. So every time I would stand up,

186
00:09:31.840 --> 00:09:33.759
<v Speaker 1>I kind of would just look over at Freddy Dee's table,

187
00:09:33.759 --> 00:09:35.519
<v Speaker 1>and he's had more chips than he had the last

188
00:09:35.519 --> 00:09:38.279
<v Speaker 1>time I looked every time, and he went on to

189
00:09:38.360 --> 00:09:42.559
<v Speaker 1>bag an absolute freaking pile of chips. I think he

190
00:09:42.639 --> 00:09:45.279
<v Speaker 1>bagged two hundred and something thousand. I mean, I don't

191
00:09:45.279 --> 00:09:47.759
<v Speaker 1>even know I mean, yeah, two hundred and sixty seven thousand.

192
00:09:47.879 --> 00:09:50.279
<v Speaker 1>I mean he was just Freddy deep just over there's

193
00:09:50.279 --> 00:09:53.200
<v Speaker 1>absolutely crushing people. Cameras are on him a lot, so

194
00:09:53.240 --> 00:09:55.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure if you watch the coverage, you probably got

195
00:09:55.200 --> 00:09:57.879
<v Speaker 1>to look into his table, but it looked like, you know,

196
00:09:57.919 --> 00:10:00.759
<v Speaker 1>Freddy Dee was was the one to catch over there

197
00:10:07.559 --> 00:10:09.799
<v Speaker 1>on the feature table. Now I didn't get to watch

198
00:10:09.840 --> 00:10:13.879
<v Speaker 1>because I was busy playing, but it sounds like this guy,

199
00:10:14.200 --> 00:10:19.919
<v Speaker 1>Jordan Baptiste absolutely stole the show on the stream both

200
00:10:19.960 --> 00:10:22.559
<v Speaker 1>with his play. You know, he was making some big

201
00:10:22.559 --> 00:10:24.639
<v Speaker 1>plays from what I could call he was getting some

202
00:10:24.679 --> 00:10:27.000
<v Speaker 1>big hands, getting people to pay him off. And some

203
00:10:27.120 --> 00:10:28.960
<v Speaker 1>of that getting people to pay him off was because

204
00:10:29.000 --> 00:10:32.759
<v Speaker 1>his personality, right, he was talkative, he was outgoing, he

205
00:10:32.840 --> 00:10:35.679
<v Speaker 1>was colorful, all that sort of stuff. He busted Jamie Gold.

206
00:10:36.159 --> 00:10:38.360
<v Speaker 1>He bagged an absolute pile of chips. You start with

207
00:10:38.399 --> 00:10:41.200
<v Speaker 1>sixty thousand chips in the WSP main event. He bagged

208
00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:45.080
<v Speaker 1>three hundred and fifty seven thousand, and that's a mountain

209
00:10:45.279 --> 00:10:49.399
<v Speaker 1>of chips. So I'm excited to see Baptiste when I

210
00:10:49.440 --> 00:10:51.919
<v Speaker 1>watch back the coverage. When I'm there every single day,

211
00:10:52.039 --> 00:10:54.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, I can't watch all of it. Sometimes, if

212
00:10:55.519 --> 00:10:57.279
<v Speaker 1>it's a not playing day and I am at my

213
00:10:57.279 --> 00:10:59.000
<v Speaker 1>computer a little bit more, I will have the stream

214
00:10:59.080 --> 00:11:01.039
<v Speaker 1>up so I can check in with it, kind of

215
00:11:01.039 --> 00:11:03.399
<v Speaker 1>skim through it, find some important points, all that sort

216
00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:06.720
<v Speaker 1>of stuff. But once the dobasop ends is when I

217
00:11:06.879 --> 00:11:09.200
<v Speaker 1>tend to sit down and really watch the whole thing,

218
00:11:09.279 --> 00:11:12.399
<v Speaker 1>like from start to finish, lock in, maybe even make

219
00:11:12.399 --> 00:11:14.480
<v Speaker 1>my wife watch it with me and you know, talk

220
00:11:14.519 --> 00:11:15.960
<v Speaker 1>through it, even though she'll probably walk out of the

221
00:11:16.039 --> 00:11:18.039
<v Speaker 1>room because it's poker and it can be boring to

222
00:11:18.799 --> 00:11:22.279
<v Speaker 1>non diehards. But but yeah, I'm excited to watch Baptist

223
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:24.720
<v Speaker 1>and maybe you know, one of the best things about

224
00:11:24.720 --> 00:11:26.799
<v Speaker 1>the WSP main event. One of my favorite things about

225
00:11:26.799 --> 00:11:31.200
<v Speaker 1>the WASP main event is seeing these personalities, seeing these

226
00:11:31.240 --> 00:11:34.759
<v Speaker 1>stories develop early and then seeing what they turn into.

227
00:11:35.039 --> 00:11:38.000
<v Speaker 1>You know, years ago we saw it with Nick Rigby, right,

228
00:11:38.519 --> 00:11:40.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, we saw him develop. I think the other

229
00:11:41.000 --> 00:11:43.320
<v Speaker 1>gentleman's name was Aaron Zang one year right. That was

230
00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:45.360
<v Speaker 1>a lot of fun watching him develop. You know, you

231
00:11:45.399 --> 00:11:47.639
<v Speaker 1>always kind of see it. I mean, even going way

232
00:11:47.679 --> 00:11:50.519
<v Speaker 1>back obviously to Jamie Gold, Like you started to see

233
00:11:50.519 --> 00:11:52.039
<v Speaker 1>that earlier and now it was a little bit different

234
00:11:52.039 --> 00:11:56.039
<v Speaker 1>back then because it wasn't live throughout. You know, it

235
00:11:56.120 --> 00:11:59.039
<v Speaker 1>was cut into episodes, so you could kind of rework

236
00:11:59.080 --> 00:12:01.559
<v Speaker 1>the story a little bit. But you know, here you

237
00:12:01.600 --> 00:12:05.600
<v Speaker 1>tend to see some people the French guy remain Look, hey,

238
00:12:05.919 --> 00:12:08.120
<v Speaker 1>I believe it was just an absolute savage on the

239
00:12:08.120 --> 00:12:10.600
<v Speaker 1>fel He's the one who had the He fought the

240
00:12:10.639 --> 00:12:14.279
<v Speaker 1>set of nines on Blesnick's aces and then turned quads

241
00:12:14.480 --> 00:12:17.120
<v Speaker 1>and cracked him in just an absolutely outrageous pot But

242
00:12:17.159 --> 00:12:19.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, stuff like that, just seeing these players develop

243
00:12:19.200 --> 00:12:22.440
<v Speaker 1>into two characters, and Jordan Baptiste seems like he's gonna

244
00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:24.159
<v Speaker 1>be that guy. Had a nice little interview with Jeff

245
00:12:24.159 --> 00:12:26.000
<v Speaker 1>Platt at the end of the day talking about you

246
00:12:26.000 --> 00:12:27.559
<v Speaker 1>know how he was a little bit nervous at the start,

247
00:12:27.600 --> 00:12:29.600
<v Speaker 1>he kind of settled in and then you know, the

248
00:12:29.720 --> 00:12:31.799
<v Speaker 1>deck treated him well and he was able to just

249
00:12:31.840 --> 00:12:34.440
<v Speaker 1>get in his groove and do his thing. And when

250
00:12:34.440 --> 00:12:37.919
<v Speaker 1>you're bagging three hundred and fifty seven thousand on day

251
00:12:37.919 --> 00:12:41.759
<v Speaker 1>one a so almost six starting stacks, there's a good

252
00:12:41.879 --> 00:12:45.399
<v Speaker 1>chance you're gonna go kind of deep. You know, I

253
00:12:45.679 --> 00:12:49.879
<v Speaker 1>can't say if you know, anyone is gonna even if

254
00:12:49.879 --> 00:12:52.240
<v Speaker 1>they bag six starting sacks on day one, they're ultimately

255
00:12:52.240 --> 00:12:54.159
<v Speaker 1>gonna make you know, day five, day six, day seven,

256
00:12:54.200 --> 00:12:56.440
<v Speaker 1>et cetera. But I mean there's a good chance with

257
00:12:56.519 --> 00:12:59.759
<v Speaker 1>this stack, he's for sure around to day three and

258
00:12:59.799 --> 00:13:02.840
<v Speaker 1>day right, so getting into the money, and if he's

259
00:13:02.879 --> 00:13:05.679
<v Speaker 1>able to have this personality, like it seemed like he

260
00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:08.720
<v Speaker 1>had really colorful guy out there, both with his play

261
00:13:08.840 --> 00:13:12.279
<v Speaker 1>and his talking, then he's gonna be somebody who's featured

262
00:13:12.360 --> 00:13:14.559
<v Speaker 1>a bit more. You know, he's got that that combination

263
00:13:14.639 --> 00:13:17.559
<v Speaker 1>of everything where he's got the personality for it, he's

264
00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:19.960
<v Speaker 1>got some game, and he's got a boatload of chips.

265
00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:21.840
<v Speaker 1>You know, sometimes you don't get all three of those

266
00:13:21.879 --> 00:13:24.279
<v Speaker 1>things working for you. Somebody might have. They might be

267
00:13:24.320 --> 00:13:26.279
<v Speaker 1>a good player, they might have a lot of personality,

268
00:13:26.320 --> 00:13:28.600
<v Speaker 1>but they might you know, be nursing a big blinds. Right,

269
00:13:28.639 --> 00:13:30.480
<v Speaker 1>So then that's kind of like, well, you know, can

270
00:13:30.519 --> 00:13:32.320
<v Speaker 1>we really feature this player because if they bust, then

271
00:13:32.320 --> 00:13:34.679
<v Speaker 1>they're out, you know whatever. But here with Jordan bet Piece,

272
00:13:34.720 --> 00:13:37.159
<v Speaker 1>I mean, maybe we've got the recipe for some really

273
00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:40.120
<v Speaker 1>cool stuff. So let's see. Maybe he's the next poker star.

274
00:13:40.200 --> 00:13:41.559
<v Speaker 1>I mean, heck, you never know, right, you never know

275
00:13:41.600 --> 00:13:44.679
<v Speaker 1>who's gonna be that next Jamie Gold, that next Chris Moneymaker.

276
00:13:45.399 --> 00:13:47.879
<v Speaker 1>So maybe we're getting a little early look at this.

277
00:13:48.480 --> 00:13:50.679
<v Speaker 1>Other than that, I don't think I really have much

278
00:13:51.000 --> 00:13:55.039
<v Speaker 1>from day one sea of the w SP main event.

279
00:13:55.639 --> 00:13:58.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna take us away from the main event for

280
00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:00.919
<v Speaker 1>a second here. I'm gonna go through some of the

281
00:14:00.960 --> 00:14:03.679
<v Speaker 1>other news items that happened around the World Series of

282
00:14:03.679 --> 00:14:06.600
<v Speaker 1>Poker on Saturday, and then I'll come back and I'll

283
00:14:06.639 --> 00:14:09.399
<v Speaker 1>talk a little bit about my day in the WSOP

284
00:14:09.559 --> 00:14:11.639
<v Speaker 1>main event. That way, if you guys want to hear

285
00:14:11.679 --> 00:14:13.480
<v Speaker 1>what happened at the World Series of Poker, you can

286
00:14:13.519 --> 00:14:15.799
<v Speaker 1>get all that stuff now. First main event, which we

287
00:14:15.879 --> 00:14:18.080
<v Speaker 1>just talked about, we'll hit on some of these other events,

288
00:14:18.080 --> 00:14:19.320
<v Speaker 1>and then if you don't want to listen to my

289
00:14:19.399 --> 00:14:21.480
<v Speaker 1>non sense, fine, you can turn the podcast off. No

290
00:14:21.799 --> 00:14:26.799
<v Speaker 1>big deal. Over. In the six hundred dollars Deep Stack Championship,

291
00:14:27.360 --> 00:14:31.039
<v Speaker 1>remember five and seventy seven entries in this one, Adrian

292
00:14:31.159 --> 00:14:35.080
<v Speaker 1>Jacobs won the damn thing Adrian Jacobs out of South

293
00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:39.080
<v Speaker 1>Africa two hundred and eighty two thousand dollars, going his

294
00:14:39.200 --> 00:14:43.120
<v Speaker 1>way his first World Series of Poker bracelet. He defeated

295
00:14:43.279 --> 00:14:46.879
<v Speaker 1>Paul Murlette in heads Up Play song. Hon took third

296
00:14:46.919 --> 00:14:51.120
<v Speaker 1>place in that one. Lisa Tan got sixth place. Pretty good.

297
00:14:51.600 --> 00:14:53.519
<v Speaker 1>I think this was the one that was there was

298
00:14:54.600 --> 00:14:57.159
<v Speaker 1>there were a couple final tables. Er, yeah, I think

299
00:14:57.200 --> 00:14:59.600
<v Speaker 1>a couple of final tables running today. There was for

300
00:14:59.600 --> 00:15:01.720
<v Speaker 1>sure this one. There was the five K super turb

301
00:15:01.759 --> 00:15:03.600
<v Speaker 1>of Bounty that we're going to talk about, and then

302
00:15:03.799 --> 00:15:05.759
<v Speaker 1>might even been one more. But there was a lot

303
00:15:05.759 --> 00:15:08.039
<v Speaker 1>of noise, is what I'm getting at. I was kind

304
00:15:08.039 --> 00:15:10.519
<v Speaker 1>of way in the in the front side of the

305
00:15:10.519 --> 00:15:14.000
<v Speaker 1>conference or of the Paris ballroom and up on the

306
00:15:14.039 --> 00:15:16.399
<v Speaker 1>main stage, like there was a lot of yelling, chanting

307
00:15:16.440 --> 00:15:20.440
<v Speaker 1>and whatever, and you know, judging by I see like

308
00:15:20.759 --> 00:15:23.000
<v Speaker 1>eight or nine people here in the winter photo for

309
00:15:23.080 --> 00:15:26.519
<v Speaker 1>Adrian Jacobs, so you know it's probably him, you know,

310
00:15:26.519 --> 00:15:28.000
<v Speaker 1>Shout out to him, Shout out to the rail. They

311
00:15:28.000 --> 00:15:30.399
<v Speaker 1>were having a blast, sounded like a great time. Got

312
00:15:30.399 --> 00:15:33.200
<v Speaker 1>the South African flag there hanging in the background. So

313
00:15:33.279 --> 00:15:37.120
<v Speaker 1>that's pretty freaking dope, I believe, if I remember correctly,

314
00:15:37.159 --> 00:15:39.440
<v Speaker 1>he started the day did Jacob was of the big

315
00:15:39.559 --> 00:15:42.519
<v Speaker 1>chip lead, so he was able to ride that to

316
00:15:42.600 --> 00:15:45.080
<v Speaker 1>the Winter Circle and take home two hundred and eighty

317
00:15:45.080 --> 00:15:49.519
<v Speaker 1>two thousand dollars heading over to the five K Super Turbo,

318
00:15:49.679 --> 00:15:53.159
<v Speaker 1>a bounty two hundred and thirteen entries in this one,

319
00:15:53.200 --> 00:15:55.360
<v Speaker 1>and a guy who plays in the studio quite a bit,

320
00:15:56.159 --> 00:16:01.039
<v Speaker 1>a youngster Miles Mulally running hot to win five hundred

321
00:16:01.080 --> 00:16:06.679
<v Speaker 1>and ninety three thousand dollars. Pete Chen finished in second place.

322
00:16:06.799 --> 00:16:11.639
<v Speaker 1>Nigeen Aes finished in fourth. You had Christian Harder getting

323
00:16:11.720 --> 00:16:14.279
<v Speaker 1>close again. Christian Harder still without a World Series of

324
00:16:14.320 --> 00:16:17.240
<v Speaker 1>over a World bracelet. I follow him on Instagram and

325
00:16:17.240 --> 00:16:19.240
<v Speaker 1>he's constantly joking about all the min cash is that

326
00:16:19.279 --> 00:16:21.960
<v Speaker 1>he's having this this summer, this one a little bit

327
00:16:21.960 --> 00:16:24.720
<v Speaker 1>better than a min cash, but ultimately not the goal

328
00:16:24.840 --> 00:16:28.879
<v Speaker 1>that he wanted to take home. Miles Malali, he came

329
00:16:28.919 --> 00:16:31.320
<v Speaker 1>on to at least my radar. It was me and

330
00:16:31.360 --> 00:16:36.720
<v Speaker 1>Remco Rinkima doing the Millionaire Maker Final table. I think

331
00:16:37.120 --> 00:16:40.840
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty I don't know, twenty twenty four, twenty three,

332
00:16:40.919 --> 00:16:44.039
<v Speaker 1>something like that, right, and we lately made the final

333
00:16:44.080 --> 00:16:47.759
<v Speaker 1>table played. I thought extremely well, you know, I thought

334
00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:51.720
<v Speaker 1>pretty much every decision point that he was faced with

335
00:16:52.440 --> 00:16:55.679
<v Speaker 1>seemed like he clicked the right button. He was very

336
00:16:55.720 --> 00:16:57.360
<v Speaker 1>young at the time. He was either like twenty one

337
00:16:57.480 --> 00:16:59.600
<v Speaker 1>or twenty two, I think, And here he is now

338
00:16:59.679 --> 00:17:02.799
<v Speaker 1>getting his first w who he bracelet almost six hundred

339
00:17:02.840 --> 00:17:05.440
<v Speaker 1>thousand dollars as well. Again, he is constantly in the

340
00:17:05.480 --> 00:17:07.680
<v Speaker 1>studio playing a lot of the PGT events. You know,

341
00:17:07.759 --> 00:17:12.240
<v Speaker 1>he rolls with the crew that's Nick Seward, Sam Alaskowitz,

342
00:17:13.359 --> 00:17:17.240
<v Speaker 1>Jeremy Becker. He's in that group of players so kind

343
00:17:17.240 --> 00:17:21.200
<v Speaker 1>of the newer American high rollers that that frequent the

344
00:17:21.240 --> 00:17:24.400
<v Speaker 1>PGT events at the Boggo studio. My Miles is certainly

345
00:17:24.400 --> 00:17:25.920
<v Speaker 1>in there. Maybe we're going to see a bit more

346
00:17:25.920 --> 00:17:28.759
<v Speaker 1>of them in there when he's ripping off a near

347
00:17:28.839 --> 00:17:33.000
<v Speaker 1>six hundred K score in this five K super Turbo bounty,

348
00:17:33.000 --> 00:17:35.480
<v Speaker 1>and I'm guessing that he got a bit more than

349
00:17:35.920 --> 00:17:38.359
<v Speaker 1>the money that's just on the price bowl five hundred

350
00:17:38.440 --> 00:17:41.119
<v Speaker 1>ninety three thousand dollars because with this being a super

351
00:17:41.119 --> 00:17:44.599
<v Speaker 1>turbo bounty, right, you know, I'm sure he I'm sure

352
00:17:44.640 --> 00:17:47.319
<v Speaker 1>he collected some scalps along the way. So congrats to

353
00:17:47.839 --> 00:17:52.640
<v Speaker 1>Miles Malayy. The eight hundred dollars Summer celebration another lower

354
00:17:52.640 --> 00:17:56.519
<v Speaker 1>buying but massive shout out massive Field Nolan at Hold

355
00:17:56.519 --> 00:17:59.319
<v Speaker 1>Them event. This one had six eight hundred and three entries.

356
00:17:59.359 --> 00:18:05.480
<v Speaker 1>Toby pro takes it down for five hundred thousand dollars.

357
00:18:05.559 --> 00:18:07.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean, holy hell, that is a heck of a

358
00:18:07.480 --> 00:18:09.440
<v Speaker 1>first place price. This also might have been the final

359
00:18:09.480 --> 00:18:11.319
<v Speaker 1>table that was yelling and screaming. I mean there was

360
00:18:11.359 --> 00:18:15.680
<v Speaker 1>a few over there. His first bracelet for Toby Price,

361
00:18:15.799 --> 00:18:20.680
<v Speaker 1>he defeated Dennis Ony believe I said that correctly, maybe

362
00:18:20.680 --> 00:18:22.759
<v Speaker 1>out of Germany for second place. So it was five

363
00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:26.079
<v Speaker 1>hundred for first for Toby Price, only three twenty two

364
00:18:26.119 --> 00:18:30.440
<v Speaker 1>per second. Michael Montchek third place Texas. Mike got close there,

365
00:18:31.200 --> 00:18:33.160
<v Speaker 1>two hundred and forty k. Kind of crazy that, you know.

366
00:18:33.200 --> 00:18:35.440
<v Speaker 1>For all the stuff that Michael Monchak plays, there is

367
00:18:35.480 --> 00:18:38.319
<v Speaker 1>no buying that is too high. Here he is coming

368
00:18:38.359 --> 00:18:40.960
<v Speaker 1>in third place in the eight hundred dollars Summer Celebration

369
00:18:41.079 --> 00:18:44.119
<v Speaker 1>that had almost seven thousand entries in it. Craig Varnell

370
00:18:44.599 --> 00:18:47.960
<v Speaker 1>finished in fifth place here for one hundred and thirty

371
00:18:48.160 --> 00:18:52.359
<v Speaker 1>seven thousand dollars. So congratulations too, Toby Price taking down

372
00:18:52.400 --> 00:18:56.559
<v Speaker 1>the eight hundred dollars Summer Celebration. They are still three

373
00:18:56.599 --> 00:18:59.559
<v Speaker 1>handed in the fifteen hundred dollars double Board Bomb Pot

374
00:18:59.680 --> 00:19:05.359
<v Speaker 1>pl tournament. We have justin Fawcett, abdul Amir and heiq

375
00:19:05.640 --> 00:19:09.160
<v Speaker 1>Lee battling it out for what is a three hundred

376
00:19:09.200 --> 00:19:13.160
<v Speaker 1>and twenty two thousand dollars first place prize. So we'll

377
00:19:13.160 --> 00:19:16.559
<v Speaker 1>get back to this one on the next episode. Ken

378
00:19:16.559 --> 00:19:18.759
<v Speaker 1>mentioned here though that Jesse Lonis did have a final

379
00:19:18.799 --> 00:19:22.640
<v Speaker 1>table Ronnie finished in eighth place for almost thirty five

380
00:19:22.920 --> 00:19:26.400
<v Speaker 1>thousand dollars. And then one other event that was running.

381
00:19:26.640 --> 00:19:29.400
<v Speaker 1>It's day one of two, still a long way to

382
00:19:29.400 --> 00:19:31.720
<v Speaker 1>go with around fifty entries left, but they had a

383
00:19:31.759 --> 00:19:33.880
<v Speaker 1>one K Nolan HOLDHM Tournament, a two day event that

384
00:19:34.000 --> 00:19:37.799
<v Speaker 1>kicked off on Saturday, seventeen hundred and thirty two entries

385
00:19:37.880 --> 00:19:40.960
<v Speaker 1>in the field. We got a first place prize of

386
00:19:40.960 --> 00:19:43.839
<v Speaker 1>almost two hundred and twenty one thousand dollars. Up top,

387
00:19:43.920 --> 00:19:47.559
<v Speaker 1>they are in the money. Believe they are bagging right

388
00:19:47.720 --> 00:19:50.400
<v Speaker 1>at time of recording, while I'm talking to you guys,

389
00:19:50.440 --> 00:19:54.079
<v Speaker 1>it looks like Greg Murson is a big stack. I mean,

390
00:19:54.119 --> 00:19:56.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how up to date these these stacks are.

391
00:19:56.519 --> 00:20:00.000
<v Speaker 1>But Greg Murson, as I say that, he's in there

392
00:20:00.119 --> 00:20:02.680
<v Speaker 1>twice so so these stacks are not not that up

393
00:20:02.720 --> 00:20:05.839
<v Speaker 1>to date. But we'll see if Greg Greg murs Andrew

394
00:20:05.839 --> 00:20:09.839
<v Speaker 1>Heidelberg is doing well up there, Casey Brown. Who else

395
00:20:09.839 --> 00:20:14.119
<v Speaker 1>we got Lucas Pasma. Okay, you know there's some there's

396
00:20:14.119 --> 00:20:17.240
<v Speaker 1>some poker notables you know, in there doing their damn thing,

397
00:20:17.279 --> 00:20:19.759
<v Speaker 1>But this one still has to play out on Sunday,

398
00:20:19.839 --> 00:20:22.240
<v Speaker 1>so we'll check back more in on this one, as

399
00:20:22.279 --> 00:20:32.039
<v Speaker 1>well as that double board bomb pop Helo event. All right,

400
00:20:32.079 --> 00:20:36.880
<v Speaker 1>so let's chat about my day in the WSP main

401
00:20:36.960 --> 00:20:39.880
<v Speaker 1>event earlier. You start with sixty K. I was there

402
00:20:39.880 --> 00:20:43.559
<v Speaker 1>for hand number one. I only recognized at my table.

403
00:20:43.680 --> 00:20:48.079
<v Speaker 1>I so we started I think five or six handed.

404
00:20:49.640 --> 00:20:53.440
<v Speaker 1>Diogo Vieira I recognized. Ryan Bells was also at my

405
00:20:53.480 --> 00:20:56.680
<v Speaker 1>table to start. Shortly after we kick things off, Paul

406
00:20:56.759 --> 00:20:59.880
<v Speaker 1>Newe joined. So that's who I had at my table today.

407
00:21:00.279 --> 00:21:03.799
<v Speaker 1>A gentleman to my left or a young kid to

408
00:21:03.839 --> 00:21:07.839
<v Speaker 1>my left out of Italy. Forget his name, but he

409
00:21:07.920 --> 00:21:10.839
<v Speaker 1>was very good. He was on my direct left. So yeah,

410
00:21:10.839 --> 00:21:14.319
<v Speaker 1>it was The table was okay, wasn't wasn't the best

411
00:21:14.319 --> 00:21:16.839
<v Speaker 1>table in the world. Wasn't the absolute worst table in

412
00:21:16.880 --> 00:21:20.880
<v Speaker 1>the world. It was just fine. You know. I thought

413
00:21:21.160 --> 00:21:24.160
<v Speaker 1>I would say half the table I thought was good

414
00:21:24.160 --> 00:21:27.240
<v Speaker 1>competent players. The other half of the table. You know,

415
00:21:27.279 --> 00:21:31.519
<v Speaker 1>I thought was a little bit probably slightly below average players,

416
00:21:32.079 --> 00:21:34.160
<v Speaker 1>so you know, it was kind of a mixed bag

417
00:21:34.200 --> 00:21:37.319
<v Speaker 1>out there. We ended up getting I don't know the

418
00:21:37.319 --> 00:21:41.759
<v Speaker 1>gentleman's name, but he goes by seven high on Netflix,

419
00:21:41.920 --> 00:21:44.759
<v Speaker 1>I think is what he goes by. He's on the

420
00:21:44.799 --> 00:21:48.279
<v Speaker 1>Devil's Plan on Netflix. I wish I could find this

421
00:21:48.359 --> 00:21:52.079
<v Speaker 1>gentleman's name, but he got he I think he bought

422
00:21:52.119 --> 00:21:54.720
<v Speaker 1>in late and joined late. He might have also came

423
00:21:54.720 --> 00:21:57.200
<v Speaker 1>from a broken table, I don't know, but he joined

424
00:21:57.279 --> 00:21:59.319
<v Speaker 1>later on. He was a freaking handful to deal with,

425
00:21:59.359 --> 00:22:03.039
<v Speaker 1>because that guy for folds ever, ever, ever ever. I

426
00:22:03.079 --> 00:22:05.319
<v Speaker 1>was talking with my friend Mickey Doff last night and

427
00:22:05.319 --> 00:22:07.039
<v Speaker 1>I was like, you know what, Mickey, I just want

428
00:22:07.119 --> 00:22:09.160
<v Speaker 1>a day, one day in the main event where I

429
00:22:09.200 --> 00:22:11.640
<v Speaker 1>just make the nuts, you know, every hand, and somebody's

430
00:22:11.680 --> 00:22:13.599
<v Speaker 1>got something to pay me off. So guess what happened, guys?

431
00:22:13.640 --> 00:22:16.680
<v Speaker 1>In level one, I made the nuts in a multi

432
00:22:16.720 --> 00:22:21.480
<v Speaker 1>way pot for board was seven six five with two clubs.

433
00:22:22.720 --> 00:22:25.279
<v Speaker 1>Turn was the eight of hearts, so puts a four

434
00:22:25.319 --> 00:22:27.519
<v Speaker 1>liner on board also brought a second fluster on. Then

435
00:22:27.519 --> 00:22:28.960
<v Speaker 1>the river was the king of clubs, and I had

436
00:22:28.960 --> 00:22:32.240
<v Speaker 1>the ace Queen of clubs, and I had the big

437
00:22:32.279 --> 00:22:36.240
<v Speaker 1>blind betting turn and river into me, and then I

438
00:22:36.359 --> 00:22:39.599
<v Speaker 1>sized up quite a bit with the rays on the river.

439
00:22:39.680 --> 00:22:42.680
<v Speaker 1>He quickly called, so I won that pot again, you

440
00:22:42.720 --> 00:22:46.839
<v Speaker 1>start with sixty K. At probably three quarters of the

441
00:22:46.839 --> 00:22:48.880
<v Speaker 1>way through the first level, I was winning a lot

442
00:22:48.880 --> 00:22:51.240
<v Speaker 1>of pots. I won that pot that was somewhat sizable

443
00:22:52.039 --> 00:22:53.640
<v Speaker 1>for the stakes at the time, and I got up

444
00:22:53.640 --> 00:22:56.119
<v Speaker 1>there around seventy five K. Seventy four seventy five K

445
00:22:56.559 --> 00:23:01.079
<v Speaker 1>was kind of cruising along. Then I actually played a

446
00:23:01.079 --> 00:23:06.799
<v Speaker 1>hand where I had aces. Ryan Bells opened from early

447
00:23:07.039 --> 00:23:11.000
<v Speaker 1>slash middle position. The button called. I three bed from

448
00:23:11.000 --> 00:23:15.279
<v Speaker 1>the small blind with aces. Ryan Bells just called button folded.

449
00:23:16.079 --> 00:23:18.759
<v Speaker 1>We ended up going I bet flop. He called on

450
00:23:18.839 --> 00:23:20.880
<v Speaker 1>queen seventy five with two spades. I had the ace

451
00:23:20.920 --> 00:23:24.000
<v Speaker 1>of spades in hand. Turn was an eight, it went

452
00:23:24.119 --> 00:23:27.200
<v Speaker 1>check check, River was a six. I checked. He bet small.

453
00:23:27.279 --> 00:23:29.200
<v Speaker 1>I called he had the two red aces. I had

454
00:23:29.240 --> 00:23:31.160
<v Speaker 1>the two black aces. He had the two red aces.

455
00:23:32.119 --> 00:23:34.319
<v Speaker 1>I did think it was a little interesting that he

456
00:23:34.400 --> 00:23:37.759
<v Speaker 1>opted to flat pre flop just because there was a

457
00:23:37.799 --> 00:23:40.240
<v Speaker 1>third player in the hand, and that player ultimately would

458
00:23:40.240 --> 00:23:43.759
<v Speaker 1>have had position. So you know Ryan Bells here would

459
00:23:43.759 --> 00:23:45.960
<v Speaker 1>have been monkey in the middle to two of us.

460
00:23:46.000 --> 00:23:49.680
<v Speaker 1>And I mean, it's not always fun to have to

461
00:23:49.720 --> 00:23:53.079
<v Speaker 1>take aces multi way, especially out of position. So I

462
00:23:53.119 --> 00:23:55.680
<v Speaker 1>just thought that that was interesting, something that I filed

463
00:23:55.680 --> 00:23:59.039
<v Speaker 1>away in my head. Then kind of towards the end

464
00:23:59.079 --> 00:24:01.680
<v Speaker 1>of the level and Love one, I basically got knocked

465
00:24:01.720 --> 00:24:06.160
<v Speaker 1>back down to just above starting. I had King Queen

466
00:24:06.200 --> 00:24:08.039
<v Speaker 1>off with the King of Spades. I opened from the

467
00:24:08.079 --> 00:24:13.200
<v Speaker 1>cutoff the big Blind defended. This was the same player younger,

468
00:24:13.240 --> 00:24:17.359
<v Speaker 1>I think German kid who I had the nut flush

469
00:24:17.480 --> 00:24:20.720
<v Speaker 1>much earlier against when he had assuming was a straight

470
00:24:20.720 --> 00:24:22.039
<v Speaker 1>with hout quick. He called you. I mean he also

471
00:24:22.240 --> 00:24:25.039
<v Speaker 1>had a worse flush, but given that he bet turn,

472
00:24:25.440 --> 00:24:28.200
<v Speaker 1>I would lean straight. So I opened King Queen with

473
00:24:28.240 --> 00:24:31.119
<v Speaker 1>the King of Spades. He calls Big Blind. It comes

474
00:24:31.200 --> 00:24:34.359
<v Speaker 1>Queen a deuce with two spades. He checks. I bet.

475
00:24:34.440 --> 00:24:37.759
<v Speaker 1>He calls Turnes the three of Spades. He checks. I debate,

476
00:24:37.839 --> 00:24:39.960
<v Speaker 1>just checking back here. I think he can check back some.

477
00:24:40.039 --> 00:24:42.279
<v Speaker 1>I think you can bet some. I have to just

478
00:24:42.359 --> 00:24:45.359
<v Speaker 1>go with a bet. He calls Rivers the niner spades,

479
00:24:45.359 --> 00:24:48.519
<v Speaker 1>so putting four spades on board, he checks, I bet again,

480
00:24:48.960 --> 00:24:51.640
<v Speaker 1>sizing up to around sixty percent pot I think, or

481
00:24:51.640 --> 00:24:57.200
<v Speaker 1>so he comes with a fairly quick check rays and

482
00:24:57.759 --> 00:25:01.279
<v Speaker 1>it was interesting because he he we took let's say

483
00:25:02.880 --> 00:25:05.799
<v Speaker 1>ten seconds twelve seconds or so to call on the turn,

484
00:25:06.680 --> 00:25:09.000
<v Speaker 1>and the way he was acting on the turn when

485
00:25:09.000 --> 00:25:12.200
<v Speaker 1>that spade came out after I bet, like, I just

486
00:25:12.319 --> 00:25:15.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, I just the energy it was given me.

487
00:25:15.240 --> 00:25:17.359
<v Speaker 1>Shout out to Jeremy Becker. And the whole energy thing

488
00:25:17.440 --> 00:25:19.559
<v Speaker 1>was that he had a big hand. Now, of course

489
00:25:19.599 --> 00:25:23.720
<v Speaker 1>that could have been that he turned a lower flush right,

490
00:25:23.839 --> 00:25:26.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, it doesn't always mean that, like it's like

491
00:25:26.039 --> 00:25:28.440
<v Speaker 1>a super super big hand and I'm like drawing stone debt.

492
00:25:28.960 --> 00:25:30.920
<v Speaker 1>So but he ended up just check calling the turn right.

493
00:25:31.839 --> 00:25:33.559
<v Speaker 1>So on the river a fine like he checks to me,

494
00:25:33.599 --> 00:25:34.920
<v Speaker 1>I think for a little while, and look, okay, I

495
00:25:34.920 --> 00:25:36.880
<v Speaker 1>think I got to bet my hand, like I mean,

496
00:25:36.920 --> 00:25:39.640
<v Speaker 1>I can't just check this back. I bet. He kind

497
00:25:39.640 --> 00:25:42.000
<v Speaker 1>of quickly checked raises. I deliberated for a little while.

498
00:25:42.079 --> 00:25:44.839
<v Speaker 1>Ultimately I folded, you know, I folded on the again.

499
00:25:44.839 --> 00:25:47.680
<v Speaker 1>It was Queen of Spades, eight of spades, deuce, three

500
00:25:47.720 --> 00:25:49.680
<v Speaker 1>of spades, nine of spades, and I folded the King

501
00:25:49.720 --> 00:25:51.920
<v Speaker 1>of Spades. So I mean, yes, he could have a

502
00:25:51.960 --> 00:25:54.599
<v Speaker 1>straight flush, so technically I have the third nuts here.

503
00:25:55.359 --> 00:25:57.279
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, I mean I just I don't know. I

504
00:25:57.359 --> 00:25:59.400
<v Speaker 1>just don't think this player, you know, he had been

505
00:25:59.480 --> 00:26:01.279
<v Speaker 1>kind of acting if he had been paying some people off,

506
00:26:01.279 --> 00:26:03.119
<v Speaker 1>but I hadn't seen him take this sort of line

507
00:26:03.440 --> 00:26:05.240
<v Speaker 1>or do anything like this so far. So I don't know.

508
00:26:05.279 --> 00:26:06.880
<v Speaker 1>It just leaned a little bit more valued to me

509
00:26:06.960 --> 00:26:10.079
<v Speaker 1>than not. So yeah, I ended up folding it. I mean,

510
00:26:10.359 --> 00:26:13.319
<v Speaker 1>I looked at it right before I hopped on the pod.

511
00:26:13.440 --> 00:26:16.200
<v Speaker 1>You know, it does say full river in the solver.

512
00:26:16.400 --> 00:26:21.079
<v Speaker 1>I know solvers aren't possible, but yeah, so I don't know.

513
00:26:21.359 --> 00:26:25.400
<v Speaker 1>It's just tricky spot from that point on, from losing

514
00:26:25.440 --> 00:26:27.680
<v Speaker 1>that hand that was like right at the end of

515
00:26:27.720 --> 00:26:30.759
<v Speaker 1>the first level. We then proceeded to play the next

516
00:26:30.799 --> 00:26:34.039
<v Speaker 1>three levels, so six hours of actual play. Of course

517
00:26:34.039 --> 00:26:36.359
<v Speaker 1>there's breaks in there, but I mean, I just could

518
00:26:36.359 --> 00:26:39.599
<v Speaker 1>not win a damn hand, guys, Like it was. It

519
00:26:39.640 --> 00:26:42.240
<v Speaker 1>was unreal. It was just like and it wasn't. I

520
00:26:42.279 --> 00:26:45.680
<v Speaker 1>didn't really lose any big pots. I didn't run any

521
00:26:45.759 --> 00:26:48.559
<v Speaker 1>big bluffs like you know, I didn't have any kind

522
00:26:48.559 --> 00:26:52.400
<v Speaker 1>of big cool ers, like nothing, nothing like super eventful happened.

523
00:26:52.440 --> 00:26:55.640
<v Speaker 1>It was just like, you know, fifteen hundred here, two

524
00:26:55.759 --> 00:26:58.960
<v Speaker 1>k here, another seventeen hundred here, and like that just

525
00:26:59.039 --> 00:27:02.480
<v Speaker 1>kept happening happening, and a lot of it was I know,

526
00:27:02.599 --> 00:27:05.519
<v Speaker 1>for you poker people out there who are like a

527
00:27:05.559 --> 00:27:07.759
<v Speaker 1>bit more studied and like, you know, you understand what

528
00:27:07.799 --> 00:27:09.559
<v Speaker 1>I'm about to say. We're like I'm opening like ace

529
00:27:09.640 --> 00:27:14.720
<v Speaker 1>queen off and it comes like eight seven six two

530
00:27:14.839 --> 00:27:17.359
<v Speaker 1>suits that are not any of my suits. I'm up

531
00:27:17.359 --> 00:27:19.359
<v Speaker 1>against two other players, and like I just have like

532
00:27:19.400 --> 00:27:22.079
<v Speaker 1>no maneuverability on this sort of bored texture, Like what

533
00:27:22.079 --> 00:27:23.920
<v Speaker 1>am I gonna do with my hand? Like, yeah, maybe

534
00:27:23.960 --> 00:27:26.400
<v Speaker 1>I could like blast off. And I tried. I tried

535
00:27:26.440 --> 00:27:28.200
<v Speaker 1>to kind of switch some things up. I tried to,

536
00:27:28.400 --> 00:27:30.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, bet in some spots I might not normally bet.

537
00:27:30.519 --> 00:27:32.480
<v Speaker 1>I tried to be a little bit more patient in

538
00:27:32.559 --> 00:27:35.240
<v Speaker 1>spots that I might take a more aggressive line just

539
00:27:35.240 --> 00:27:37.319
<v Speaker 1>just because I don't know. Things just really kind of

540
00:27:37.519 --> 00:27:39.480
<v Speaker 1>just weren't working out for me. So after a little while,

541
00:27:39.519 --> 00:27:41.079
<v Speaker 1>I'd be like, Okay, maybe if I just try and

542
00:27:41.160 --> 00:27:43.440
<v Speaker 1>like do something a little different here. Okay, I normally

543
00:27:43.440 --> 00:27:45.000
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't bet this, So what if I do bet this?

544
00:27:45.119 --> 00:27:48.400
<v Speaker 1>You know, just nothing was working. Nothing was working for

545
00:27:48.599 --> 00:27:51.920
<v Speaker 1>three straight levels and the WSP main event every level

546
00:27:51.960 --> 00:27:54.799
<v Speaker 1>is two hours. So I'm just like losing, losing, losing.

547
00:27:55.440 --> 00:27:57.680
<v Speaker 1>Next thing, you know, I'm at forty K. Next thing,

548
00:27:57.720 --> 00:27:59.799
<v Speaker 1>you know, I'm at thirty five K. Then I'm at

549
00:28:00.319 --> 00:28:02.119
<v Speaker 1>and I'm just like what the what is like? What

550
00:28:02.240 --> 00:28:05.880
<v Speaker 1>is going on? Like I won a couple of small pots,

551
00:28:06.240 --> 00:28:08.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, to kind of get back up around forty,

552
00:28:09.559 --> 00:28:13.200
<v Speaker 1>and I'm just like losing, losing, losing, losing. Diogo Vieira

553
00:28:13.839 --> 00:28:16.720
<v Speaker 1>really good player. Believe he's Portuguese even though his flag

554
00:28:16.799 --> 00:28:19.559
<v Speaker 1>said American. Anyway, he's at my table, he's two to

555
00:28:19.599 --> 00:28:23.079
<v Speaker 1>my right, he's steam rolling the table. Okay, he's playing.

556
00:28:23.519 --> 00:28:26.759
<v Speaker 1>I thought very very well. He had a ton of chips.

557
00:28:27.160 --> 00:28:30.279
<v Speaker 1>He was, you know, the deck was working in his favor.

558
00:28:30.319 --> 00:28:32.359
<v Speaker 1>He was getting people to pay him off in huge

559
00:28:32.359 --> 00:28:35.519
<v Speaker 1>spots where he like was just like two x three

560
00:28:35.720 --> 00:28:38.680
<v Speaker 1>x pot on river, like just crazy stuff. There was

561
00:28:38.720 --> 00:28:42.079
<v Speaker 1>a gentleman in seat nine who he was there originally

562
00:28:42.160 --> 00:28:46.680
<v Speaker 1>before he got moved before seven High joined. And I

563
00:28:46.680 --> 00:28:49.400
<v Speaker 1>mean this gentleman was like Diego had him on like

564
00:28:49.519 --> 00:28:51.279
<v Speaker 1>life till because he was just like doing all this

565
00:28:51.319 --> 00:28:53.680
<v Speaker 1>stuff getting to pay him off. It was if that

566
00:28:53.680 --> 00:28:55.039
<v Speaker 1>guy would have stayed there, he would have for sure

567
00:28:55.079 --> 00:28:57.839
<v Speaker 1>busted at our table and likely to Vira for sure.

568
00:28:58.200 --> 00:28:59.920
<v Speaker 1>So I'm just kind of like losing, losing, losing. So

569
00:29:00.000 --> 00:29:03.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm seeing Vera open like some some spots in some

570
00:29:03.960 --> 00:29:05.799
<v Speaker 1>later positions, like I was on the button, he would

571
00:29:05.839 --> 00:29:07.759
<v Speaker 1>be in the hijack seat and he's opening hands like

572
00:29:07.799 --> 00:29:10.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, queen six suited, seven five suited, like you know,

573
00:29:11.000 --> 00:29:12.960
<v Speaker 1>he's just he's getting a little bit more liberal, not

574
00:29:13.039 --> 00:29:14.680
<v Speaker 1>that you can't get liberal on these spots. I agree

575
00:29:14.720 --> 00:29:16.279
<v Speaker 1>with him. I would probably be doing the exact same

576
00:29:16.279 --> 00:29:18.519
<v Speaker 1>thing in his shoes. So then that leads me to

577
00:29:18.599 --> 00:29:22.519
<v Speaker 1>a hand, you know, in the second to last level

578
00:29:22.519 --> 00:29:26.319
<v Speaker 1>of the night, where he opens from the hijack seven

579
00:29:26.400 --> 00:29:29.000
<v Speaker 1>High who had now joined our table, who had If

580
00:29:29.039 --> 00:29:31.039
<v Speaker 1>seven High played a hand, he would just never fold,

581
00:29:31.039 --> 00:29:34.079
<v Speaker 1>like to the river pretty much. I mean, he wasn't

582
00:29:34.160 --> 00:29:37.240
<v Speaker 1>like he wasn't giving it away. That might sound like

583
00:29:37.279 --> 00:29:39.039
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying he was giving it away. He was not

584
00:29:39.079 --> 00:29:43.359
<v Speaker 1>giving it away. He was just incredibly sticky. He did fold.

585
00:29:43.440 --> 00:29:45.839
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes I'm using a little bit hyperbole there, but anyway,

586
00:29:46.680 --> 00:29:50.279
<v Speaker 1>he calls I have ace jack off on the button,

587
00:29:50.359 --> 00:29:52.799
<v Speaker 1>and I think I can go either way. I think

588
00:29:52.839 --> 00:29:55.519
<v Speaker 1>I can call. I think I can raise. Based on

589
00:29:55.599 --> 00:29:59.920
<v Speaker 1>how liberal first VIA's opens were being and how much

590
00:30:00.240 --> 00:30:02.200
<v Speaker 1>seven High was getting in the mix, you know, kind

591
00:30:02.240 --> 00:30:05.079
<v Speaker 1>of playing hands in position. Both of them had had

592
00:30:05.079 --> 00:30:06.519
<v Speaker 1>a good amount of chips. I was like, you know what,

593
00:30:06.519 --> 00:30:09.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna three bet this hand. And I was like,

594
00:30:09.680 --> 00:30:12.559
<v Speaker 1>you know what if if Viera goes for this, like

595
00:30:12.599 --> 00:30:14.799
<v Speaker 1>if he decides to come with a four bet, I don't.

596
00:30:14.880 --> 00:30:16.359
<v Speaker 1>I kind of don't know what the hell I'm gonna do.

597
00:30:16.440 --> 00:30:18.559
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I might just stack off, which which seemed

598
00:30:18.559 --> 00:30:19.880
<v Speaker 1>crazy at the time, but I don't know. I probably

599
00:30:19.880 --> 00:30:23.880
<v Speaker 1>would have folded anyway. Via folds seven High, decides to

600
00:30:23.880 --> 00:30:29.480
<v Speaker 1>call it comes ten eighty three Rainbow. He checks, I bet.

601
00:30:29.519 --> 00:30:32.200
<v Speaker 1>He calls h Turner is the King of Hearts, brings

602
00:30:32.200 --> 00:30:34.000
<v Speaker 1>a second heart. The other heart on the board was

603
00:30:34.039 --> 00:30:38.000
<v Speaker 1>the three Hearts. He checks, I bet again. Sizeing up,

604
00:30:38.240 --> 00:30:41.160
<v Speaker 1>he calls like, well, what does this guy have? Does

605
00:30:41.160 --> 00:30:43.160
<v Speaker 1>he like? I mean, yeah, he can he can flop

606
00:30:43.160 --> 00:30:45.039
<v Speaker 1>sets here like he can have eights and tens, you know,

607
00:30:45.160 --> 00:30:49.680
<v Speaker 1>flats the rays. Although I thought with I thought with

608
00:30:49.720 --> 00:30:51.960
<v Speaker 1>those two hands tens and eights. You know, this would

609
00:30:51.960 --> 00:30:54.359
<v Speaker 1>be a good spot for him to It's not a

610
00:30:54.359 --> 00:30:55.960
<v Speaker 1>spot where I think he might do it one hundred

611
00:30:55.960 --> 00:30:58.519
<v Speaker 1>percent of the time, but maybe sometimes he might backjam.

612
00:30:58.960 --> 00:31:01.119
<v Speaker 1>Given I was kind of on the shorter side. He

613
00:31:01.160 --> 00:31:03.079
<v Speaker 1>can just get the money in pre against me with

614
00:31:03.160 --> 00:31:05.400
<v Speaker 1>tens and eights right after he flats the rays from

615
00:31:05.519 --> 00:31:07.519
<v Speaker 1>Viera and he gets out of the way. So there

616
00:31:07.599 --> 00:31:09.480
<v Speaker 1>was a chance that I thought, you know, maybe some

617
00:31:09.599 --> 00:31:12.160
<v Speaker 1>percent of the time he can flat those hands more

618
00:31:12.160 --> 00:31:15.200
<v Speaker 1>so tens than eights, just you know, and play for

619
00:31:15.240 --> 00:31:17.119
<v Speaker 1>a backjam. I also thought, you know, hand like King

620
00:31:17.160 --> 00:31:19.640
<v Speaker 1>ten suited can be in there. The river is just

621
00:31:20.039 --> 00:31:22.319
<v Speaker 1>it's a blank. It's not a six or four or

622
00:31:22.319 --> 00:31:25.960
<v Speaker 1>something whatever. He checks, and I debated just going for

623
00:31:26.000 --> 00:31:28.400
<v Speaker 1>the triple barrel and I would have put it all in,

624
00:31:29.440 --> 00:31:32.079
<v Speaker 1>and I didn't. I got I backed off, you know,

625
00:31:32.119 --> 00:31:33.599
<v Speaker 1>I said, you know what, I don't need to do this.

626
00:31:34.000 --> 00:31:37.440
<v Speaker 1>The hard part is is that so okay? So I check.

627
00:31:38.160 --> 00:31:42.079
<v Speaker 1>Ultimately I have like fifteen k left or something. He

628
00:31:42.160 --> 00:31:46.440
<v Speaker 1>tables two nines, So I think his hand is supposed

629
00:31:46.440 --> 00:31:49.680
<v Speaker 1>to be a foal on the turn. I think, I mean,

630
00:31:49.680 --> 00:31:52.799
<v Speaker 1>that seems like it's getting pretty sticky out there, with

631
00:31:52.960 --> 00:31:56.839
<v Speaker 1>you know, two overs on board, me off my stack side,

632
00:31:57.000 --> 00:31:59.279
<v Speaker 1>going multiple streets here after three bedding pre I mean,

633
00:31:59.319 --> 00:32:02.400
<v Speaker 1>that just seems pretty sticky. But given how he was playing,

634
00:32:02.440 --> 00:32:04.000
<v Speaker 1>I also think if I would have tripled it off,

635
00:32:04.000 --> 00:32:06.319
<v Speaker 1>he probably would have heroed me. So I might just

636
00:32:06.319 --> 00:32:08.359
<v Speaker 1>be out of the tournament. I mean, I have no idea.

637
00:32:08.440 --> 00:32:11.680
<v Speaker 1>Maybe that works, maybe doesn't. I'm still unknown on it.

638
00:32:12.400 --> 00:32:16.519
<v Speaker 1>But anyway, the level ends shortly after that. I have

639
00:32:16.559 --> 00:32:18.799
<v Speaker 1>eleven thousand, six hundred going into the last level of

640
00:32:18.839 --> 00:32:21.599
<v Speaker 1>the night, last level of nights three hundred, six hundred,

641
00:32:21.640 --> 00:32:25.319
<v Speaker 1>so you know, I'm working with nineteen big Lindes, you know,

642
00:32:25.400 --> 00:32:27.720
<v Speaker 1>just under twenty big lines. And it's one of those

643
00:32:27.799 --> 00:32:29.599
<v Speaker 1>days where you're just like, man, I just can't like

644
00:32:29.640 --> 00:32:33.039
<v Speaker 1>nothing's like nothing's working right. And I had a similar

645
00:32:33.119 --> 00:32:35.519
<v Speaker 1>day day too, with a monster stack earlier this summer,

646
00:32:35.559 --> 00:32:37.279
<v Speaker 1>back to a really good stack on day one, Day two,

647
00:32:37.359 --> 00:32:39.240
<v Speaker 1>literally just lost every hand that I play, just could

648
00:32:39.240 --> 00:32:43.839
<v Speaker 1>not not maneuver at all or make anything happen. And

649
00:32:43.880 --> 00:32:46.079
<v Speaker 1>anything that other people were doing against me was like

650
00:32:46.960 --> 00:32:49.640
<v Speaker 1>it was working and it was good timing. It was everything,

651
00:32:49.720 --> 00:32:51.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, like and eventually you just kind of feel

652
00:32:51.680 --> 00:32:54.319
<v Speaker 1>like this punching bag. And I've been wearing a I

653
00:32:54.319 --> 00:32:59.480
<v Speaker 1>had an ESPN Hockey Night jersey, a red hockey jersey

654
00:32:59.519 --> 00:33:02.200
<v Speaker 1>that I wore, you know, just because WSB is back

655
00:33:02.240 --> 00:33:06.079
<v Speaker 1>on ESPN, and I decided, you know what, let's just

656
00:33:06.079 --> 00:33:07.880
<v Speaker 1>wear this be a little bit festive. Last year on

657
00:33:07.920 --> 00:33:10.680
<v Speaker 1>the fourth of July, I worthy the USA jacket. This year,

658
00:33:10.720 --> 00:33:12.079
<v Speaker 1>will switch it up a little bit. So I had

659
00:33:12.119 --> 00:33:15.079
<v Speaker 1>that on. Normally I just play in like my black

660
00:33:15.119 --> 00:33:18.359
<v Speaker 1>PGT jacket, and I walked back to my desk and

661
00:33:18.359 --> 00:33:21.079
<v Speaker 1>I said, you know what, screw this jersey, taking jersey off,

662
00:33:21.119 --> 00:33:23.279
<v Speaker 1>I'm going back to all black. Put the all black

663
00:33:23.319 --> 00:33:27.920
<v Speaker 1>back on. Shout out to my guy, Antonio o'brego, photographer

665
00:33:29.880 --> 00:33:33.079

666
00:33:33.119 --> 00:33:34.759
<v Speaker 1>just like whatever. I kind of just go for a walk,

667
00:33:34.799 --> 00:33:37.640
<v Speaker 1>I do some stretching, you know, whatever. I did. I

668
00:33:37.640 --> 00:33:39.880
<v Speaker 1>sat down and I did some breathing exercises and I

669
00:33:40.039 --> 00:33:42.039
<v Speaker 1>just kind of sat in silence, and I was like,

670
00:33:42.079 --> 00:33:45.200
<v Speaker 1>you know what, just like just just fucking grind, like

671
00:33:45.240 --> 00:33:48.480
<v Speaker 1>it's twenty big lines. In a poker tournament. You know, yes,

672
00:33:48.519 --> 00:33:50.839
<v Speaker 1>it's the Waspe main event, but it's also twenty big

673
00:33:50.839 --> 00:33:53.039
<v Speaker 1>lines in a poker tournament, and you've done that a

674
00:33:53.079 --> 00:33:56.079
<v Speaker 1>million times in your life, Like you know what to do. Yes,

675
00:33:56.119 --> 00:33:58.680
<v Speaker 1>everyone else has way more tips than you. It's not

676
00:33:58.799 --> 00:34:01.279
<v Speaker 1>fun to just be losing losing losings, but you still

677
00:34:01.279 --> 00:34:04.640
<v Speaker 1>got twenty bigs, right, so just you know, just kind

678
00:34:04.640 --> 00:34:07.640
<v Speaker 1>of being like, yeah, just gotta just just gotta. It's

679
00:34:07.680 --> 00:34:10.000
<v Speaker 1>not that I wasn't trying hard, because I will always

680
00:34:10.079 --> 00:34:12.440
<v Speaker 1>try hard. I just was like, you know what, just

681
00:34:12.519 --> 00:34:15.119
<v Speaker 1>try even harder, like just I don't know if you

682
00:34:15.159 --> 00:34:16.760
<v Speaker 1>can do that, but just try even harder. And I

683
00:34:16.800 --> 00:34:20.280
<v Speaker 1>went back out there and maybe it's just the gods

684
00:34:20.280 --> 00:34:22.719
<v Speaker 1>shining down on me. But third hand, I get kings.

685
00:34:22.719 --> 00:34:24.679
<v Speaker 1>I'm in the big blind. I'm all in for eleven

686
00:34:24.679 --> 00:34:29.400
<v Speaker 1>thousand against a gentleman with ace king, and uh yeah,

687
00:34:29.440 --> 00:34:32.199
<v Speaker 1>I double up there, I get back up over twenty

688
00:34:32.800 --> 00:34:35.880
<v Speaker 1>play that stack for a little while. Then I four

689
00:34:35.880 --> 00:34:39.719
<v Speaker 1>bet rip ace King, gentleman who doubled me up with

690
00:34:39.800 --> 00:34:42.239
<v Speaker 1>the ace king when I had kings. He opens some

691
00:34:42.360 --> 00:34:46.320
<v Speaker 1>early position to twelve hundred. Diogo Viira makes it forty

692
00:34:46.320 --> 00:34:50.000
<v Speaker 1>two hundred from the cutoff. I'm in the small blind

693
00:34:50.039 --> 00:34:53.360
<v Speaker 1>with Ace King. I put in twenty one three hundred

694
00:34:53.400 --> 00:34:56.920
<v Speaker 1>all in first raiser folds. I get a bit of

695
00:34:56.960 --> 00:34:59.559
<v Speaker 1>a tank with like like a minute or so minute

696
00:34:59.559 --> 00:35:02.000
<v Speaker 1>and a half. You know, it was a long tank

697
00:35:02.119 --> 00:35:04.079
<v Speaker 1>from Vieira. He's kind of hemming and hall on about

698
00:35:04.079 --> 00:35:08.880
<v Speaker 1>the whole thing. And as he's thinking, I'm thinking because

699
00:35:08.880 --> 00:35:10.440
<v Speaker 1>the way he had been playing, like, I didn't think

700
00:35:10.480 --> 00:35:14.199
<v Speaker 1>he was three betting you know, tens nine's eight seven

701
00:35:14.280 --> 00:35:16.760
<v Speaker 1>stuff like that in this spot. So I kind of

702
00:35:16.760 --> 00:35:19.880
<v Speaker 1>didn't think I was up against a pair because I

703
00:35:19.920 --> 00:35:21.719
<v Speaker 1>thought that the pairs that he with three bet would

704
00:35:21.719 --> 00:35:23.880
<v Speaker 1>have already called me, right, you know, it's I mean, listen,

705
00:35:23.920 --> 00:35:26.760
<v Speaker 1>it's not You're not like fist pumping in there with

706
00:35:26.840 --> 00:35:29.000
<v Speaker 1>like jacks or queens because my hands look super strong.

707
00:35:29.000 --> 00:35:31.440
<v Speaker 1>But you're you're calling I mean queens. You're probably calling

708
00:35:31.440 --> 00:35:34.559
<v Speaker 1>pretty happily, and it's like whatever, you know. Plus he

709
00:35:34.599 --> 00:35:36.320
<v Speaker 1>had it well over one hunter k and chips, I think,

710
00:35:36.800 --> 00:35:39.119
<v Speaker 1>so I'm thinking, does he just have Ace Queen here?

711
00:35:39.199 --> 00:35:41.480
<v Speaker 1>Like he's queen suited And he's like really debating, like

712
00:35:41.920 --> 00:35:43.679
<v Speaker 1>you know, looking at me, like thinking and you know,

713
00:35:43.719 --> 00:35:45.679
<v Speaker 1>does he just have two tens or two jacks over there?

714
00:35:45.679 --> 00:35:47.840
<v Speaker 1>And I'm just gonna ultimately flip with this guy. He

715
00:35:47.920 --> 00:35:49.559
<v Speaker 1>calls he's got two jacks, So I was a little

716
00:35:49.559 --> 00:35:52.239
<v Speaker 1>bit surprised to not have seen a faster call with

717
00:35:52.280 --> 00:35:55.280
<v Speaker 1>the jacks. But I drilled the king, and you know,

718
00:35:55.320 --> 00:35:58.559
<v Speaker 1>we're back up over forty k and kind of cruising,

719
00:35:59.079 --> 00:36:04.199
<v Speaker 1>got gotta touch over fifty table broke lost one hand

720
00:36:04.519 --> 00:36:06.320
<v Speaker 1>towards like the second to last hand of the night

721
00:36:06.440 --> 00:36:09.960
<v Speaker 1>or something, and then uh yeah, bagged forty five nine hundred.

722
00:36:10.000 --> 00:36:12.920
<v Speaker 1>So again, given where I was at eleven thousand, six

723
00:36:13.000 --> 00:36:15.519
<v Speaker 1>hundred going into that final level of night, the day

724
00:36:15.599 --> 00:36:17.320
<v Speaker 1>that I had where I hadn't won a pot for

725
00:36:17.400 --> 00:36:21.639
<v Speaker 1>six hours, and it just it seemed like it seemed

726
00:36:21.679 --> 00:36:24.000
<v Speaker 1>like I was just like, you know what I said,

727
00:36:24.039 --> 00:36:26.679
<v Speaker 1>you know what if if if you're gonna bust, you're

728
00:36:26.679 --> 00:36:28.440
<v Speaker 1>gonna bust. I mean that it's it's at the end

729
00:36:28.440 --> 00:36:29.920
<v Speaker 1>of the day, it sucks the bus to the WS

730
00:36:30.000 --> 00:36:33.559
<v Speaker 1>be main event, yes, but also it's like people bust

731
00:36:33.559 --> 00:36:35.840
<v Speaker 1>poker tournaments. Ah shit, ton of people bust poker tournaments

732
00:36:35.880 --> 00:36:37.400
<v Speaker 1>every time they go out and play them. So it's

733
00:36:37.400 --> 00:36:39.239
<v Speaker 1>not It's not the end of the world, you know,

734
00:36:39.280 --> 00:36:42.960
<v Speaker 1>and ultimately, if today is not your day, then then

735
00:36:43.000 --> 00:36:44.719
<v Speaker 1>you know, so be it. You know, so be it.

736
00:36:45.079 --> 00:36:47.440
<v Speaker 1>But thankfully, you know, things did swing back in my

737
00:36:47.519 --> 00:36:50.239
<v Speaker 1>favor and I was able to close pretty strong at

738
00:36:50.239 --> 00:36:53.519
<v Speaker 1>the end there, so so that was fun. Bagging forty

739
00:36:53.519 --> 00:36:57.719
<v Speaker 1>five nine hundred is not starting stack, it's less than starting,

740
00:36:57.800 --> 00:37:01.199
<v Speaker 1>but uh, considering where I was and the day that

741
00:37:01.280 --> 00:37:03.480
<v Speaker 1>I had, had it feels like I bagged you know,

742
00:37:03.519 --> 00:37:06.320
<v Speaker 1>four in one thousand, so I'm ready to go. Last year,

743
00:37:06.559 --> 00:37:10.159
<v Speaker 1>I bag thirty five eight hundred on day one, So

744
00:37:11.159 --> 00:37:15.599
<v Speaker 1>I've never really had a good day one I had.

745
00:37:15.920 --> 00:37:17.480
<v Speaker 1>I had one good day one, and then I punted

746
00:37:17.480 --> 00:37:20.519
<v Speaker 1>it off on day two. So the other times, it's

747
00:37:20.679 --> 00:37:22.960
<v Speaker 1>it's more like I they almost I need to be

748
00:37:23.079 --> 00:37:24.559
<v Speaker 1>I need to have to work for it, I guess

749
00:37:24.639 --> 00:37:26.400
<v Speaker 1>is what I'm saying, Like I need to constantly work

750
00:37:26.400 --> 00:37:28.159
<v Speaker 1>for it. I can't just be front running the whole thing,

751
00:37:28.760 --> 00:37:31.320
<v Speaker 1>which is fine. I'm happy to go out there and uh,

752
00:37:31.400 --> 00:37:33.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, bring the lunch pal and go to work.

753
00:37:33.400 --> 00:37:36.719
<v Speaker 1>So so yeah, bring bring on day two. It'll be

754
00:37:36.840 --> 00:37:42.320
<v Speaker 1>on Monday, Day two. ABC. Have my have my table already,

755
00:37:42.880 --> 00:37:48.039
<v Speaker 1>look pretty okay, I recognize I think one name at

756
00:37:48.079 --> 00:37:51.760
<v Speaker 1>the table, Kina England is there. She's two to my right.

757
00:37:52.719 --> 00:37:58.079
<v Speaker 1>Don't recognize anyone off the top, but uh yeah, you

758
00:37:58.079 --> 00:38:00.280
<v Speaker 1>know it doesn't matter. You know, you can only play

759
00:38:00.280 --> 00:38:01.679
<v Speaker 1>the people that they sit you with. You don't have

760
00:38:01.679 --> 00:38:04.280
<v Speaker 1>to worry about tabe I mean getting a bad table jog,

761
00:38:04.320 --> 00:38:06.159
<v Speaker 1>getting a good table drag. Yes, that's a big part

762
00:38:06.199 --> 00:38:08.800
<v Speaker 1>of going deep in a tournament, especially in this tournament.

763
00:38:08.880 --> 00:38:11.559
<v Speaker 1>But you also have to play who's in front of you, right.

764
00:38:11.599 --> 00:38:15.320
<v Speaker 1>You can't skip, you can't sit out, you know, you

765
00:38:15.320 --> 00:38:17.119
<v Speaker 1>can't take a rest day any of that sort of stuff.

766
00:38:17.119 --> 00:38:18.320
<v Speaker 1>You've got to go in there and you got to

767
