00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:13,560
Speaker 1: Hello, everyone, Welcome back to a new episode of the

2
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:17,640
Poker Go Podcast. My name is Donnie Peters. It is

3
00:00:17,679 --> 00:00:22,800
one two three four am, twelve thirty four am on Monday,

4
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:27,079
June twenty seconds. I know I've faulted on this in

5
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:29,039
the past in terms of saying this is gonna be

6
00:00:29,079 --> 00:00:31,679
short and sweet, but it's likely gonna be pretty short

7
00:00:31,679 --> 00:00:36,679
and sweet here because yours truly bagged for day three

8
00:00:36,719 --> 00:00:39,679
of the Milling Maker. So I've been playing all day.

9
00:00:39,719 --> 00:00:41,840
I've been playing all day for the past two days.

10
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:44,399
I want to be able to get some sleep tonight,

11
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,240
so I'm gonna try and bang out a podcast tonight.

12
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:51,320
Truth be told, I did fire up the podcast to

13
00:00:51,399 --> 00:00:54,479
do one last night or the night before, and it

14
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,759
was twelve forty five am. I'd got one plane, you know.

15
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:00,280
I get home, I'm looking through all the results and

16
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:04,120
like everything is still running. Like I'm like, so nothing's

17
00:01:04,159 --> 00:01:06,480
even ending, Like all this stuff is still happening. So

18
00:01:07,159 --> 00:01:08,879
you know, you got the ten k horse is still

19
00:01:08,879 --> 00:01:10,799
playing out, so you got all this other There's not

20
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:13,239
really any other tournaments that are really ending, you know.

21
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:14,719
So I'm just like, all right, well, I gots I'm

22
00:01:14,719 --> 00:01:16,319
not waiting up all night, so I guess I'm just

23
00:01:16,359 --> 00:01:17,920
gonna have to punt on this day and come to

24
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,000
the next day. So here we are, it's the next day.

25
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:23,359
We got to talk about Calvin Anderson once again. We

26
00:01:23,439 --> 00:01:25,760
already talked about him, and we're talking about him again.

27
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,280
We got to hit on Joussimoo, the absolute Brazilian crusher.

28
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:33,959
Zach Rumberg won the first ever five card plo, and

29
00:01:34,079 --> 00:01:36,239
I think we've got a couple other winners that we're

30
00:01:36,239 --> 00:01:40,200
gonna hit on here as we go. As always, please

31
00:01:40,239 --> 00:01:43,480
do share the podcast wherever you can share it, like it,

32
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,280
give us five stars, leave us a review, all that

33
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,280
sort of stuff. I know I owe you guys at mailbag,

34
00:01:48,359 --> 00:01:51,000
so that's going to be coming at some point. I

35
00:01:51,079 --> 00:01:55,879
do have my spreadsheet finally complete now with the first

36
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,480
fifty events on this year's w SIP schedule, and what

37
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,280
I'm talking about is the entries, the number of entries

38
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,439
for those first fifty events, and I'm going to compare

39
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,120
them to some past year. So I just got to

40
00:02:07,159 --> 00:02:10,520
collect my thoughts on where I sit from it, because

41
00:02:10,599 --> 00:02:12,400
I know that there's a lot of talk about the

42
00:02:12,479 --> 00:02:14,800
numbers being down in a lot of events this year.

43
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:16,560
But a little bit of a teaser here is that

44
00:02:16,599 --> 00:02:19,080
I don't think it's as bad as people might be

45
00:02:19,199 --> 00:02:21,639
making it out. To see new season of high Stakes

57
00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,280
it with Calvin Anderson here. He won the ten k

58
00:03:00,479 --> 00:03:03,680
Horse Championship. So it's the second time this summer that

59
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,159
we've seen someone win a ten k championship event, hop

60
00:03:07,159 --> 00:03:09,159
into the next ten D championship event and then go

61
00:03:09,199 --> 00:03:11,159
on to win that one. Calvin Anderson did it here.

62
00:03:11,159 --> 00:03:12,960
We talked about him a few days ago winning the

63
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,960
ten k raz Championship. Then he gets into the ten

64
00:03:16,039 --> 00:03:18,639
k Horse Championship Boom. He tops one hundred and eighty

65
00:03:18,719 --> 00:03:22,240
nine entries to win four one hundred and thirteen thousand dollars.

66
00:03:22,319 --> 00:03:26,240
Naokihara did it earlier in the summer when he won

67
00:03:26,319 --> 00:03:32,039
back to back championship events. For Anderson his seventh career bracelet,

68
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:36,599
he topped Josh Aria in heads up play. Anderson took

69
00:03:36,639 --> 00:03:39,439
the four hundred and thirteen thousand dollars, Aria second place

70
00:03:39,439 --> 00:03:41,719
for two hundred and seventy five one thousand dollars. You

71
00:03:41,759 --> 00:03:43,879
also had Roberts Rocky ht this final table. You had

72
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:48,000
David Bach at this final table as well. The story

73
00:03:48,039 --> 00:03:52,199
here is, of course, Calvin Anderson. You know, a few

74
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,599
days ago, I was on this microphone, I was sitting

75
00:03:55,639 --> 00:03:59,360
in this chair. I was talking about how Calvin Anderson

76
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:05,280
winning his six bracelet. You know how that is one

77
00:04:05,319 --> 00:04:09,759
of the most underrated great players that poker has. Right now.

78
00:04:09,919 --> 00:04:12,680
We all throw around these names. You know, a lot

79
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:14,439
of the names like like the person he beat heads

80
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,199
up josh Aari for example. All those names get thrown

81
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,160
around when it comes Poker Hall of Fame time. Of course,

82
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,959
that's fine. I don't believe Calvin Anderson is eligible because

83
00:04:22,959 --> 00:04:25,800
I don't think he's forty years old yet. But that said,

84
00:04:25,879 --> 00:04:29,560
you know, his name should be up there right Like

85
00:04:30,639 --> 00:04:33,639
he now has seven bracelets, he has a bunch of

86
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,360
other wins. You know, he's had some success in PGT events.

87
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,560
He had that WPT Prime Championship win for more than

88
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,160
a million dollars. You know, cal does it, and he

89
00:04:43,199 --> 00:04:46,560
does it in a wide variety of games. And now

90
00:04:47,879 --> 00:04:50,000
just past the halfway point of the twenty twenty six

91
00:04:50,079 --> 00:04:53,959
World Series of Poker, Calvin Anderson is right there in

92
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,600
the thick of it to chase down the WSB Player

93
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,720
of the Year title, which would just be another incredible

94
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,079
feather in his cap. You know. So at some point

95
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:06,680
we just got to stop calling this a hot streak

96
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,399
and really start calling it for what it is. And

97
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,160
Calvin Anderson's got flat out one of the best tournament

98
00:05:12,199 --> 00:05:15,600
resumes and poker hands down. And you know, if you

99
00:05:15,639 --> 00:05:19,279
were to if you were to poll people, like if

100
00:05:19,319 --> 00:05:20,639
I were to walk around the World tore as a

101
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,800
poker tomorrow and say, you know, who are the best

102
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:28,519
tournament players of the last fifteen years, and I mean

103
00:05:28,639 --> 00:05:31,319
Calvin Adson's name might not get mentioned at all. I

104
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:32,800
mean how many people would I need to get to

105
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,160
before I get to Calvin Anderson. Now, obviously there are

106
00:05:35,199 --> 00:05:38,480
a lot of great, great, great tournament players, but when

107
00:05:38,519 --> 00:05:41,879
you start racking up the accolades that he has racked up,

108
00:05:42,079 --> 00:05:44,839
I mean, he's got to be up there in some

109
00:05:44,879 --> 00:05:48,920
sort of conversation, right He's he just always does it.

110
00:05:49,079 --> 00:05:52,000
Now will he continue to do it? I don't know.

111
00:05:52,319 --> 00:05:54,199
I mean I feel like you have to just say

112
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,360
yes because scoreboard. This is what the scoreboard said. The

113
00:05:57,399 --> 00:06:00,560
guy just keeps on a freaking winning. He's not not loud,

114
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,519
you know, He's not constantly out there creating a bunch

115
00:06:03,519 --> 00:06:09,720
of headlines. But Calvin Anderson just constantly keeps on winning. Now,

116
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:11,639
he's got a little bit of a miss rocky in

117
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:15,399
his game, where he plays a high percentage of hands

118
00:06:15,399 --> 00:06:17,480
when he's at the table. He is an aggressive player.

119
00:06:17,519 --> 00:06:19,439
He can't have a bit of a wider range than

120
00:06:19,519 --> 00:06:23,800
most you know, But Calvin Anderson absolutely has the skills

121
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,399
and he of course has the results now to go

122
00:06:27,519 --> 00:06:29,920
up there with some of the best in the world.

123
00:06:30,319 --> 00:06:33,959
It really is just incredible to watch him perform time

124
00:06:33,959 --> 00:06:37,000
and time again. So now we had Iowa kihar winning

125
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:41,120
a bracelet two times this summer. Now we got Calvin

126
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,759
Anderson doing it. I mean, this, this Player of the

127
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:48,279
Year race this year is just absolutely freaking incredible. I

128
00:06:48,319 --> 00:06:52,480
don't know if WSP dot com is up to date yet. Yeah,

129
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:54,600
I don't think it is, because I'm looking at it

130
00:06:54,639 --> 00:06:57,839
now and doesn't look like Calvin Anderson is. Oh he's

131
00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,959
in ninth place, so that might be up to date.

132
00:07:00,959 --> 00:07:04,959
I don't know, but I mean within the top fifteen here.

133
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,040
Just just listen to some of these names. Alex Foxen,

134
00:07:08,199 --> 00:07:12,040
Nick Shulman, Sean deep Naoikihar Josh ari A, Justin Loberto

135
00:07:12,439 --> 00:07:16,800
URIs of Aleski, Calvin Anderson, Dennis Weiss, Stephen Hubbard, Chris Unikan,

136
00:07:16,879 --> 00:07:21,040
Marco Johnson, uh seem Aka, Nick Salem, Alex Anton and

137
00:07:21,079 --> 00:07:23,480
bow Dan. I mean some of those players, Fox and Shulman,

138
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:27,879
deep Aria, Euris of Alefski, Anderson. Like, this is a great, great,

139
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,759
great player of the erase. It really is. I was

140
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,399
actually talking to someone the other day who said that

141
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,480
they might have tinkered with the formula a little bit.

142
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,560
I don't know if that's true or false, but the person,

143
00:07:40,959 --> 00:07:44,040
you know, I believe the sources in the know and I,

144
00:07:44,079 --> 00:07:46,279
you know, I think that they did, or you know,

145
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,720
he believed at least that they adjusted with it a

146
00:07:48,759 --> 00:07:50,319
little bit. So you know, we'll see how this all

147
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,439
shakes out in the end. But right now, these names

148
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,720
incredible race. You know, I can't wait to see this

149
00:07:55,759 --> 00:07:59,560
thing play out as we go forward. Jouson Mao over

150
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,759
in the fifty k PLO high Roller. He topped one

151
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,519
hundred and ten entries to win one point three six

152
00:08:05,639 --> 00:08:11,240
eight million dollars his fourth career bracelet. He defeated Santos

153
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:14,120
Servanna in heads up place. Santos was going for his

154
00:08:14,199 --> 00:08:17,800
second bracelet of the summer. Robert Cowan finished in third year.

155
00:08:17,839 --> 00:08:19,759
He's of Alefski. I just mentioned his name and the

156
00:08:19,759 --> 00:08:22,040
Player of the Year race. He took sixth place in

157
00:08:22,079 --> 00:08:24,480
this one at Niowa Kihara. I just talked about him

158
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,920
a little bit. He finished seventh place. What a freaking

159
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,680
summer this guy's having. Niowa Kihara, who who said that

160
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,920
he was basically about to quit poker, tournament poker, I

161
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:35,000
should say tournament poker, excuse me and just go back

162
00:08:35,039 --> 00:08:37,840
to cash And now he is absolutely just dominating in

163
00:08:37,879 --> 00:08:43,159
the summer. So that's Niaoiqihar just an absolutely incredible, credible showing.

164
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:44,960
And you know we still have what forty percent of

165
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:49,080
the summer left, but jausimout fourth bracelet. This guy, for

166
00:08:49,159 --> 00:08:53,799
the past six months or so has been crushing. He

167
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:57,679
won a Super High rollerble at the studio for over

168
00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:59,919
a million dollars. That was that epic heads up now

169
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,399
against Jason Kuhn when they battled for like four or

170
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,279
five hours. It was just absolutely out of control, both

171
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:10,480
players playing a plus plus plus poker. That was awesome.

172
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:16,039
He also won a bracelet at WSOP Paradise. He won

173
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:17,960
one hundred and fifty k at Paradise for more than

174
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,720
three million dollars. So he's got the seven figure score

175
00:09:20,799 --> 00:09:23,159
for Super High Rollerball. He's got the three million dollar

176
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:27,159
score here for the WSP Paradise Triton victory, which was

177
00:09:27,159 --> 00:09:30,000
his third bracelet. Here he's got another one point three

178
00:09:30,039 --> 00:09:33,960
eight million dollars plus. So I mean, Jossamoo absolutely crushing,

179
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,240
absolutely on fire. Another player who now he doesn't have

180
00:09:38,039 --> 00:09:40,759
the bracelet count that some of the other guys do.

181
00:09:41,039 --> 00:09:43,080
Of course, he's only got four, but you know wel

182
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:46,600
T has four, Alex Foxen's got four. I mean Alex

183
00:09:46,639 --> 00:09:49,759
Foxen jos Samoo. Like, if people are gonna pick one

184
00:09:49,759 --> 00:09:52,200
of the two, they're probably gonna pick Alex Foxen. But

185
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,919
Chaos Samoo is as equal as a Crusher as far

186
00:09:55,919 --> 00:10:00,720
as I'm concerned. An absolute crusher plays Nolan Hold super well,

187
00:10:00,879 --> 00:10:05,279
plays Plo super well. Josama was always in there battling

188
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,320
in the studio. We know someone like an Alex Foxen

189
00:10:07,399 --> 00:10:09,279
was always in there battling in the studio. Well, JOm

190
00:10:09,279 --> 00:10:11,399
I was there every single day for just about every

191
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,879
single event, always fire and fire and firing. And you know,

192
00:10:14,919 --> 00:10:17,360
he's really come on these last six months in terms

193
00:10:17,399 --> 00:10:20,840
of getting those those big seven figure scores that a

194
00:10:20,879 --> 00:10:31,240
career like his deserves. Gotta take us back a day

195
00:10:31,279 --> 00:10:34,120
here for this next talking point. When I recorded the

196
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:37,480
last episode, Sean Deep was still taking on Joey Couten

197
00:10:37,799 --> 00:10:40,440
in heads up play. Well, as it turns out, Joey

198
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:46,879
Couten denied Sean Dee his bracelets. Joey Couten gets his third.

199
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,919
Believe it was the ninth bracelet that's uh Dee was

200
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:55,200
going for there. Deep started with a a sizable lead

201
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,039
heads up. I watched a bit of the heads up match.

202
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,240
I mean, Joey Couten just had his number. I mean, honestly,

203
00:11:02,279 --> 00:11:05,759
he just won pot after pot after pot after pot,

204
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:09,240
big rail. On both sides. Deep had a lot of

205
00:11:09,279 --> 00:11:13,039
his supporters, let's say fifteen to twenty of them. On

206
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,279
the other side, inequal amount of people, I believe. I

207
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,559
heard Nick Waginty say it was basically the entire Columbus,

208
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:23,720
Ohio poker scene was on Joey Couten's side. Joey Couten

209
00:11:23,759 --> 00:11:28,360
out there looking like Grandma from Rounders with that with

210
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,279
with the jacket on, with with the hat. I mean,

211
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,120
he looked looking as cool as hell out there. Ultimately

212
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:37,799
is able to come back finish off Deep Deep kind

213
00:11:37,799 --> 00:11:39,720
of a little bit of a storm out after it, and

214
00:11:39,759 --> 00:11:43,720
I mean not really, but like got up, walked right off,

215
00:11:43,799 --> 00:11:45,759
grabbed his phone and like just kind of let like

216
00:11:45,799 --> 00:11:48,960
he was like you could kind of tell it was like, man,

217
00:11:49,279 --> 00:11:51,840
like I got so close, especially after the summer that

218
00:11:51,879 --> 00:11:55,759
Deep's been had and having excuse me, and uh yeah,

219
00:11:55,919 --> 00:11:57,879
just couldn't ultimately get the job. And I'm probably stung

220
00:11:57,879 --> 00:11:59,440
a little bit more because he did have a big

221
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,159
lead for much of the final table, not only during

222
00:12:02,159 --> 00:12:05,399
heads up play, but ultimately it was Joey Cooden winning

223
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,919
the three K nine game Mix for two hundred and

224
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:11,960
fifty four thousand dollars. That said everything that Sean Deep

225
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:15,879
did during WASP Europe and now coupled with this second

226
00:12:15,879 --> 00:12:18,000
place finish, he also has one final table earlier this

227
00:12:18,039 --> 00:12:20,080
summer as well. He's right back into the thick of

228
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,240
things for the wasity player of the Erase and that

229
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:27,480
is what he cares about first and foremost. Zach Gruenberg

230
00:12:27,919 --> 00:12:31,799
won the first ever five card Plo event for his

231
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:37,240
third career bracelet. Now. Zach Gruenberg aka Hustler Groon is

232
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:41,360
a guy who you know he I mean, he hit

233
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,519
rock bottom him poker kind of right after Black Friday.

234
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:48,240
He fell into a pretty severe drug addiction, got addicted

235
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,240
to pills, even said he got addicted to heroin, and

236
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,799
he was at like the lowest of the low, you know,

237
00:12:53,919 --> 00:12:56,799
kind of had some financial issues with like you know,

238
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,240
basically he was kind of taking some of his money

239
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:03,200
that he was getting from his staking deal and he

240
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,120
was spending it on drugs and like all this sort

241
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,120
of stuff. I mean, he's just it was really bad

242
00:13:07,519 --> 00:13:09,840
for Zach Gruenberg. You know, he talked about this in

243
00:13:09,879 --> 00:13:13,320
a card Player article that they did several years ago.

244
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,120
But you know, eventually he was able to come out

245
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,480
of it, you know, went to rehab, got himself straight,

246
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,399
got everything together, came back, came back to the World

247
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,840
Series of Poker, had a really good summer that first

248
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:27,759
summer back. And yeah, ever since then, you know, he's

249
00:13:27,799 --> 00:13:30,759
just been on the right track. And here he is

250
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,399
becoming the winner of the first ever five card pot

251
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,320
limit Omaha event at the World Series of Poker. I

252
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,440
think they've had five card plo high low before, but

253
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:44,759
not five card plo. In this one, Grooenberg topped the

254
00:13:44,759 --> 00:13:48,440
field of thirteen hundred and nineteen entries to get the

255
00:13:48,519 --> 00:13:53,519
job done. He won two hundred and seventy one thousand dollars.

256
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:58,200
I mean, really cool for Gruenberg. You know, he's in hustler.

257
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:01,279
Gruons is just in og On poker legend, right, he

258
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,720
really is. So it's great to see him turn his

259
00:14:04,759 --> 00:14:06,840
life around like this. It's great to see him continue

260
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:10,360
to stay playing poker and have the success now that

261
00:14:10,399 --> 00:14:14,200
he continues to have. In the three K six handed

262
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:18,120
no limit hold them abashek Mater wins that one for

263
00:14:18,519 --> 00:14:22,840
four hundred and ninety two thousand dollars. He denied former

264
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:28,200
WSP Main Event champion Martin Jacobson, not Martin Jakobsen, Rich

265
00:14:28,279 --> 00:14:32,480
Ryan Producer Rich Martin Jacobson Jacobson, taking him three hundred

266
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,120
and twenty seven thousand dollars for second place. Nasim Salem

267
00:14:35,159 --> 00:14:38,679
aka Nick Salem. He won the GG Millions High Roller

268
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,399
and here he is finishing third in this event for

269
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:44,559
two hundred and twenty six thousand dollars. Chris Vich. I

270
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:48,080
thought Chrisovich was a mixed game player, but performing well

271
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,519
here in Nola. Man Holdham finished sixth in this event.

272
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:55,639
Martyr topped a field of one thy one hundred and

273
00:14:55,720 --> 00:15:01,600
fifty entries in this one. We also had the fifty

274
00:15:01,679 --> 00:15:06,000
k PPC kicked off today. That one is I mean,

275
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,559
I mean it's day one, so it's obviously super early.

276
00:15:09,279 --> 00:15:12,000
I'm just kind of looking through the chip counts here. Obviously,

277
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,600
you know, take this for what you will, because things

278
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,519
are gonna change, and they're gonna change probably pretty drastically.

279
00:15:17,559 --> 00:15:19,120
But it looks like Matt Glance is off to a

280
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:23,039
hot start. China Rhem, Benny Glaser all performing very well

281
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:27,000
out of the gate, Jason Merciers in the field, Dylan

282
00:15:27,039 --> 00:15:28,840
Wiseman's in the field, of josh Ari's in the field.

283
00:15:28,919 --> 00:15:31,000
Josh Ari of course, fresh off that second place finish

284
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:32,799
in the ten k horse. You got Chris Brewer in

285
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:37,639
the field, Eric Wasterson, James Ops, Paul Volpie. Yeah. I

286
00:15:37,639 --> 00:15:39,960
mean that's you know, to who's who. Let's look at

287
00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:41,840
some of the players that are out though, how about that,

288
00:15:43,039 --> 00:15:45,600
Chad Eves sledge out, Robert is Not, Miss Rocky out,

289
00:15:45,639 --> 00:15:51,399
Scott sever out, Jeremy Osmas Busto, Dan Cats out, Natcho

290
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:56,000
Barbaro's out, Patrick Leonard's out, Michael Miss Rocky looks like

291
00:15:56,039 --> 00:15:59,440
he's the latest one that's out as well. So they

292
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:02,480
are up to eighty seven entries right now. I don't

293
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:04,519
know how long registration stays open to this one, but

294
00:16:04,519 --> 00:16:07,120
I would assume it stays open for quite a long time.

295
00:16:07,519 --> 00:16:11,279
And this is a five or six day event. They've

296
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,559
said many times, at least Jeff Platt has said many

297
00:16:13,559 --> 00:16:16,039
times on social media they're going to be streaming multiple

298
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,240
days of this. So for all those people out there

299
00:16:18,279 --> 00:16:21,960
who have been clamoring for some Mixed Games coverage, there

300
00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:26,039
are multiple days supposedly coming from the fifty k PPC.

301
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:31,679
You also had one k plo is playing down on

302
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,720
day one B, so that one's still happening. Don't need

303
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:37,440
to touch on that one too much. We have the

304
00:16:37,799 --> 00:16:41,440
fifteen dollars limit deuce to seven triple draw is down

305
00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:45,080
to looks like the final two tables. Who we got

306
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:48,679
in here? Steve bill racis wow, Steve Billa rockis in there,

307
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:54,519
Sean Trojas in there, Daniel Strelitz, Miguel Rodriguez. Okay, Rod's

308
00:16:54,639 --> 00:16:57,399
just out there doing it. Huh. We drafted him once

309
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,000
on twenty five K Fantasy. He didn't do much for us.

310
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,159
A little late, buddy, little late. I just kidding. The

311
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:06,599
five hundred dollars Salute to Warriors got almost forty five

312
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,440
hundred entries. They are playing it out now on day one,

313
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:14,279
so not gonna touch on that one too much. And yeah,

314
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:16,240
I think that's the pod. I told you it was

315
00:17:16,279 --> 00:17:18,720
gonna be short and sweet. I think it is short

316
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:22,559
and sweet here. I had a pretty good Day two

317
00:17:23,079 --> 00:17:26,599
for my million maker run. I'm in for two bullets.

318
00:17:26,599 --> 00:17:30,960
I played Day one D. I doubled up the second

319
00:17:31,039 --> 00:17:33,519
or third hand that I played on my first bullet.

320
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:37,759
After that, just lost lost, lost, lost, loss, ultimately busted

321
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:42,839
whatever got back in ended up kind of just hanging around.

322
00:17:42,839 --> 00:17:45,799
You start with twenty five K structures, really really good

323
00:17:46,079 --> 00:17:50,480
hour long levels. It's a very player friendly structure for sure.

324
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,720
They just really got to fix the dinner breaks and

325
00:17:53,759 --> 00:17:56,319
like some silly breaks that they do. But anyway, I

326
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,519
bag thirty nine k on day one, coming back to

327
00:17:59,519 --> 00:18:05,200
one k T twok, I get it up to around

328
00:18:06,839 --> 00:18:10,359
seventy thousand, maybe a slightly less than seventy thousand, without

329
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:14,319
having to go to any showdowns. Then I pick up aces.

330
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:18,079
I end up doubling up to one forty or one

331
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,799
fifty or whatever it is, and uh yeah, from there

332
00:18:20,799 --> 00:18:23,759
it was kind of just smooth sailing. I ran one

333
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,599
really really big bluff triple barrel bluff with two fours

334
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:33,079
on ace eight five eight ten rainbow board. Got that

335
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,759
one through with a shove on the river. Had to

336
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:40,279
endure a four or five minute tank, but got it through.

337
00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:42,799
And then yeah, one some big pots later on, ended

338
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:46,599
up bagging six hundred and fifteen thousand. I believe when

339
00:18:46,599 --> 00:18:51,480
we come back on Monday, well I'll have should be

340
00:18:52,759 --> 00:18:58,799
twenty k big blind so just over thirty bigs, you know,

341
00:18:59,039 --> 00:19:02,759
so we'll see how go. I definitely played at some

342
00:19:02,799 --> 00:19:07,079
tougher tables as things kind of converged down, but you know,

343
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:09,680
I mean that's to be expected, you know, in in

344
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,680
tournament poker, you know, the better players are. You know,

345
00:19:12,799 --> 00:19:15,440
at least a lot of them are gonna are gonna

346
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:17,720
win as we go, so you know, you got to

347
00:19:17,759 --> 00:19:19,440
just be prepared to be able to battle with them.

348
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:23,000
But I felt really good all day and had some

349
00:19:23,039 --> 00:19:25,319
big hands that helped out as well. And uh yeah,

350
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,960
we'll we'll see how we go. We'll go from there.

351
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,640
I have no idea what the payout is or anything

352
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:32,799
like that. I just know that obviously it's a millionaire maker,

353
00:19:32,839 --> 00:19:35,880
so there's a million dollars up top. At least there's

354
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:39,160
like twelve thousand entries in this freaking ridiculous thing. So

355
00:19:39,519 --> 00:19:41,720
we'll see if we can make some hands on Monday

356
00:19:41,759 --> 00:19:44,240
and see if we can keep this train right on moving.

357
00:19:45,039 --> 00:19:47,720
But that's it. That's the pod. So I appreciate you guys,
