We are smack dab in the middle 5 00:00:27.800 --> 00:00:29.920 of as it says right here on the felt if 6 00:00:29.960 --> 00:00:32.039 you're watching on the YouTube video or on poker Go 7 00:00:32.320 --> 00:00:37.880 Poker Masters. Baby, we just finished event number six, Tim 8 00:00:37.880 --> 00:00:40.479 and I thought, you know what, Sunday's a day off. 9 00:00:40.640 --> 00:00:43.799 Why don't we fire up a pod Saturday night. Hopefully 10 00:00:43.840 --> 00:00:47.600 producer rich Ryan can get it out there for I'll 11 00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:49.320 say it the latest Monday morning. 12 00:00:49.479 --> 00:00:51.560 He's not doing anything tomorrow, he should do it tomorrow. 13 00:00:51.640 --> 00:00:54.880 You know, it's the weekend. First, it's the weekend. It 14 00:00:54.880 --> 00:00:57.799 it's the weekend. There's a lot of football on. I 15 00:00:57.880 --> 00:01:01.119 get it. Yeah, I don't really know. 16 00:01:01.119 --> 00:01:02.799 If it was probably gouldn't be with the Jets. 17 00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:06.400 This is this is probably what your Broncos ain't looking. 18 00:01:06.439 --> 00:01:10.840 So yeah, there you go. Salute the service, baby, we're 19 00:01:10.840 --> 00:01:13.040 not looking salute to service. 20 00:01:13.359 --> 00:01:16.239 I always wondered about they have all these things about 21 00:01:16.239 --> 00:01:18.760 the American flag, like the American flag on your hat is. 22 00:01:18.719 --> 00:01:22.359 Backwards, like it's flipped. It's something about but. 23 00:01:22.359 --> 00:01:24.400 Anyway, no I read I read about this before. But 24 00:01:24.439 --> 00:01:25.719 you know, it's like when you hang it in the garage, 25 00:01:25.719 --> 00:01:27.280 you gotta hang it a certain way. Like there's like 26 00:01:27.400 --> 00:01:30.280 rules whatever the flag. Cool rules with. 27 00:01:31.879 --> 00:01:32.359 A flag. 28 00:01:32.439 --> 00:01:35.560 I mean, it's just seems ridiculous. But that's neither here 29 00:01:35.680 --> 00:01:38.879 nor there. It is all about the purple jet, purple jacket. 30 00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:40.920 The pokeer masters do we have rules with the purple jacket. 31 00:01:40.959 --> 00:01:43.239 You can only display it a certain way. You know, 32 00:01:44.159 --> 00:01:46.280 on the inside out of the button is messed up. 33 00:01:47.079 --> 00:01:49.599 I noticed on the purple jacket out there, the button 34 00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:53.120 is messed up, and it's extremely frustrating. Every time I 35 00:01:53.159 --> 00:01:55.159 walk past the thing, I see this freaking button, and 36 00:01:55.200 --> 00:01:57.959 I'm like, who made this thing? Why is it backwards? 37 00:01:58.519 --> 00:02:01.319 The US flag apiece backwards on hats and uniforms to 38 00:02:01.359 --> 00:02:06.359 symbolized movement forward, dating back that dates back to the 39 00:02:06.519 --> 00:02:08.759 Civil Okay, cool. 40 00:02:08.919 --> 00:02:14.960 Who cares anyway, Poker masters, we're gonna talk about the 41 00:02:14.960 --> 00:02:17.360 six events. We're gonna kind of preview what's to come, 42 00:02:17.639 --> 00:02:20.000 the race for the purple jacket. You know, I was 43 00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:21.840 not I was not joking. If if you guys are 44 00:02:21.879 --> 00:02:24.840 new here. You do win the purple jacket. 45 00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:27.080 We should wear it, right, man, No, you can't wear it. 46 00:02:27.080 --> 00:02:29.319 It's it's like a it's a thing. You can't touch it. 47 00:02:29.319 --> 00:02:34.680 You can't touch can trophy. Yeah, you just it's it's 48 00:02:34.680 --> 00:02:37.840 a bit sacred in a way, like you can't can't 49 00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:39.719 do that. You shouldn't do that. Then if you touch it, 50 00:02:39.719 --> 00:02:41.319 you should be touching it with white gloves. As far 51 00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:45.159 as I there you go. So we're just gonna talk 52 00:02:45.159 --> 00:02:47.560 pretty much all things poker masters. I do have a 53 00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:51.439 family pot. I forgot about it last time, even though 54 00:02:51.439 --> 00:02:53.199 we last time we did a family plot. Anyway, we 55 00:02:53.400 --> 00:02:55.439 you know, shot the ship a little bit on Disneyland. 56 00:02:55.759 --> 00:02:59.800 But I do have another thing pertaining to uh, a 57 00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:04.680 trip with my family, and this one has been eating 58 00:03:04.680 --> 00:03:08.400 me alive for I think three weeks now. 59 00:03:08.479 --> 00:03:09.840 You went on another trip. 60 00:03:09.680 --> 00:03:11.960 Maybe two weeks. No, this is this is about talking 61 00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:14.639 about a trip oh in the future, okay, yeah, but 62 00:03:14.680 --> 00:03:17.000 the stuff that happened, you know, two to three weeks 63 00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:20.439 ago is really just chaps my ass. And I'm like, 64 00:03:21.039 --> 00:03:22.319 you know, it's gotten to the point where I have 65 00:03:22.400 --> 00:03:24.560 not talked to my brother about it. So that's a 66 00:03:24.599 --> 00:03:29.520 little preview and I expect an apology from it.

The winners so 108 00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:35.639 far have been David Coleman, Mike Zoulker, Andrew Moreno, Darren Elias, 109 00:05:35.920 --> 00:05:39.839 Chino Reim and Alex Foxen. A really good group of 110 00:05:39.959 --> 00:05:42.879 six winners. Yeah, when it comes to like notable faces, 111 00:05:42.920 --> 00:05:46.399 well known faces, regulars on the PGT, you know, all 112 00:05:46.439 --> 00:05:49.480 those guys have put in time and effort on the 113 00:05:49.519 --> 00:05:53.160 PGT over the years. So seeing them all come out 114 00:05:53.199 --> 00:05:55.920 on top is you know, cool, it's fun. You know, 115 00:05:55.959 --> 00:05:57.839 you like your regulars to win, so I get it. 116 00:05:58.680 --> 00:06:01.120 The opening event a little bit of a different twist 117 00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:03.639 this year, As we highlighted last time when we previewed 118 00:06:03.639 --> 00:06:06.720 the series, we did what we called the Poker Masters 119 00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:10.839 Million Dollar Showcase, a million dollar guarantee multi flight event, 120 00:06:10.879 --> 00:06:14.199 two starting flights. I got in there and played in it. 121 00:06:14.240 --> 00:06:15.959 As we talked about how I won that satellite, but 122 00:06:15.959 --> 00:06:17.319 I was going to play anyway. But I got out 123 00:06:17.319 --> 00:06:20.240 there and played in it. Two hundred and thirty nine 124 00:06:20.319 --> 00:06:24.600 total entries, which I think came in all right. You know, 125 00:06:24.839 --> 00:06:27.199 I'll defer to you, commission. I mean, how do you 126 00:06:27.480 --> 00:06:29.800 how do you feel about the number? Were you sweating 127 00:06:29.839 --> 00:06:33.680 the guarantee? Like what what do you think? Just just 128 00:06:33.680 --> 00:06:35.279 speak to the number first. We'll get into some of 129 00:06:35.279 --> 00:06:36.680 the other stuff about the event, but let's just talk 130 00:06:36.680 --> 00:06:37.879 about the number to start. 131 00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:41.639 Thirty nine entrants Day one A at one hundred and nine. 132 00:06:41.800 --> 00:06:44.879 Day one B one hundred and thirty. I was very 133 00:06:44.879 --> 00:06:49.079 nervous on that first day. There was I think I 134 00:06:49.160 --> 00:06:52.839 sent you a list somewhere around fifty around rigs that 135 00:06:52.920 --> 00:06:55.240 we would expect to be playing, not in attendance on 136 00:06:55.240 --> 00:06:58.839 one A. But we did some maths. We took the 137 00:06:58.879 --> 00:07:01.720 people that were boss Set one, you know, we removed 138 00:07:01.759 --> 00:07:05.040 the satellite winners, we added the new satellite winners, and 139 00:07:05.079 --> 00:07:07.800 we were at about eighty nine and we needed ninety 140 00:07:07.800 --> 00:07:08.279 one entrance. 141 00:07:08.279 --> 00:07:09.600 So it was we knew it was going to be close. 142 00:07:10.360 --> 00:07:13.680 I was not here. I was in a different state, 143 00:07:13.800 --> 00:07:16.519 planning your escape, planning my scape. 144 00:07:16.560 --> 00:07:17.600 Had we not hit the game with you. 145 00:07:17.639 --> 00:07:18.439 We did not hit my garage. 146 00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:20.759 You want you wanted to have a four hour head 147 00:07:20.759 --> 00:07:23.439 start because it is five saying diego I won. 148 00:07:23.600 --> 00:07:23.759 Yeah. 149 00:07:23.759 --> 00:07:26.319 I was already there, ready to hide on the beach somewhere, 150 00:07:26.720 --> 00:07:28.519 and you were sending me, you know, I was like, 151 00:07:28.560 --> 00:07:33.040 please send me updates. Thankfully we did, you know, get 152 00:07:33.079 --> 00:07:35.879 to that ninety one. We needed blew through. That got 153 00:07:35.879 --> 00:07:37.720 to one hundred and thirty. Couple of those names that 154 00:07:37.959 --> 00:07:40.519 didn't show on one A eventually showed up. A couple 155 00:07:40.560 --> 00:07:43.800 of those guys, you know, coming from Jju, coming from Trenton. 156 00:07:44.199 --> 00:07:47.800 So with Trenton going on, you know, with borgarda kind 157 00:07:47.800 --> 00:07:51.560 of wrapping up. I think two hundred and thirty nine 158 00:07:51.720 --> 00:07:54.079 it was a great number. You know, personally, I wish, 159 00:07:54.439 --> 00:07:56.319 you know one A was one thirty to make us 160 00:07:56.319 --> 00:07:57.879 feel a little better, but you know. 161 00:07:57.839 --> 00:07:59.120 The sweat was there. We got there. 162 00:07:59.399 --> 00:08:02.079 I would say, you know, we are planning to do 163 00:08:02.079 --> 00:08:03.759 this for Pola Go Cup. We're planning to do this 164 00:08:03.800 --> 00:08:07.439 for us poke open. I think two hundred and thirty 165 00:08:07.480 --> 00:08:10.240 nine is our floor. I think we'll get a bigger 166 00:08:10.279 --> 00:08:13.040 number of Polago Cup. You know, you and I have discussed, hey, 167 00:08:13.079 --> 00:08:16.720 can we add maybe one, maybe two more satellites at night? 168 00:08:17.439 --> 00:08:21.319 If we do that, the popularity of you know this 169 00:08:21.319 --> 00:08:24.560 this first time, I think, you know, going forward, it 170 00:08:24.560 --> 00:08:27.600 would be pretty successful event. Yes, I was a little nervous, 171 00:08:27.639 --> 00:08:30.759 but hey, we got through and we we we'll both 172 00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:31.519 still have jobs. 173 00:08:31.519 --> 00:08:33.159 So that's that's what's the most important to me. 174 00:08:33.360 --> 00:08:36.159 I got two main thoughts on the number one. I 175 00:08:36.240 --> 00:08:38.679 was also a little bit nervous entering Day one B, 176 00:08:39.360 --> 00:08:42.000 but looking back on it in hindsight, I don't think 177 00:08:42.000 --> 00:08:43.759 I should have been as nervous, and I think it 178 00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:49.879 was just a reflection of that. In this instance, PGT 179 00:08:49.960 --> 00:08:52.440 slash Poker Girl was putting up the guarantee, so we 180 00:08:52.519 --> 00:08:56.159 had much more skin in the game, which allowed us 181 00:08:56.159 --> 00:08:58.120 to feel the concern much more. 182 00:08:58.320 --> 00:08:58.440 So. 183 00:08:58.639 --> 00:09:01.600 I think in reality, there was probably a very small 184 00:09:01.679 --> 00:09:04.000 chance we missed. I mean, we would probably be the 185 00:09:04.039 --> 00:09:07.840 first poker Tour poker operator in the history of mankind 186 00:09:07.879 --> 00:09:11.519 to have the last starting flight lower than the first, 187 00:09:11.679 --> 00:09:13.279 you know, had we missed, I mean not that that 188 00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:16.600 hasn't happened before, but it's very very rare that that happened. So, 189 00:09:17.240 --> 00:09:20.279 you know, I think we are pretty safe all things considered. 190 00:09:20.679 --> 00:09:23.320 The second thing is is I actually don't think the 191 00:09:23.399 --> 00:09:26.919 number was successful. I think it needed to be three 192 00:09:26.960 --> 00:09:29.200 hundred for me to say successful, and if it didn't 193 00:09:29.240 --> 00:09:30.879 say three hundred, I was going to say it was 194 00:09:30.919 --> 00:09:33.799 not successful. So I'm not happy with the number, and 195 00:09:33.879 --> 00:09:35.960 I feel like there is a lot of room for improvement, 196 00:09:36.480 --> 00:09:39.519 Mainly sixty one entries of room for improvement. 197 00:09:39.600 --> 00:09:42.080 I look, yes, I thought we were going to be 198 00:09:42.120 --> 00:09:44.679 more around that three hundred. I would say that also, 199 00:09:44.679 --> 00:09:47.720 a success is just hitting two hundred. See you you 200 00:09:47.720 --> 00:09:49.200 can kind of look at different ways, but yeah, I 201 00:09:49.240 --> 00:09:50.320 was with you. I thought we were going to get 202 00:09:50.360 --> 00:09:53.639 money that three hundred. If we look at past five 203 00:09:53.759 --> 00:09:56.399 K events, you know, with the biggest one we had 204 00:09:56.559 --> 00:09:59.080 was one seventy seven, So just take that as a 205 00:09:59.159 --> 00:10:01.759 data point, you would think, Okay, we get one seventy 206 00:10:01.759 --> 00:10:04.039 seven on one A, we're going to get at least 207 00:10:04.159 --> 00:10:05.000 one twenty on. 208 00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:07.840 Day one BAY. But just using postata, I think we 209 00:10:07.840 --> 00:10:09.559 were thinking three hundred. 210 00:10:09.919 --> 00:10:12.320 Yeah, I was thinking one twenty five and one seventy five. 211 00:10:12.440 --> 00:10:14.159 Were like how it would shake out? I mean, you know, 212 00:10:14.200 --> 00:10:15.679 give or take a little bit on each day. But 213 00:10:15.720 --> 00:10:18.200 those are my two goal numbers going in. 214 00:10:18.279 --> 00:10:20.279 But let's let's say we add those, you know, those 215 00:10:20.360 --> 00:10:23.080 rigs that were missing a few new satellite plays, a 216 00:10:23.080 --> 00:10:24.799 few new faces here and there, then we should be 217 00:10:24.879 --> 00:10:26.320 kind of on that for next time. 218 00:10:26.799 --> 00:10:28.840 And we also ran really bad with three entries that 219 00:10:28.919 --> 00:10:31.399 was one hundred percent for sure. Like for example, I 220 00:10:31.480 --> 00:10:36.679 played Day one A and at my table the seven 221 00:10:36.799 --> 00:10:38.960 or eight people that played my table. A couple of 222 00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:41.919 people got moved off or balancing and whatnot. But I 223 00:10:42.000 --> 00:10:44.519 was the only person to bust before registration. Out of 224 00:10:44.559 --> 00:10:47.480 those seven day players, one percent, like they all made 225 00:10:47.480 --> 00:10:49.600 it to registration. You know, obviously some of them busted 226 00:10:49.639 --> 00:10:52.480 after registration, but that there are all people who would 227 00:10:52.480 --> 00:10:55.600 put in you know, one, two or sorry, two or 228 00:10:55.639 --> 00:10:59.720 three bullets and they just didn't. So and that's just variant. 229 00:10:59.759 --> 00:11:03.440 And it was actually pretty surprising because I felt like 230 00:11:03.519 --> 00:11:07.000 this event had a fairly fast structure all things considered. 231 00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:09.399 If you were to think about, you know, a five 232 00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:12.399 K buying multi flight tournament with a guarantee, if I 233 00:11:12.440 --> 00:11:16.159 were to just give you those things, you would probably 234 00:11:16.159 --> 00:11:19.759 think the structure is at a stone minimum. You know, 235 00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:22.639 you start two hundred and fifty big blinds deep. You 236 00:11:22.679 --> 00:11:24.519 got forty minute levels to start, and then you go 237 00:11:24.600 --> 00:11:26.799 from there. If not a better structure, you know, three 238 00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:28.799 hundred big blinds deep four under big blinds is deep 239 00:11:28.840 --> 00:11:32.320 to start our levels? Whatever. No, this is pretty fast 240 00:11:32.320 --> 00:11:35.360 in here, you know. We it's not that it's super fast, 241 00:11:35.759 --> 00:11:39.960 it just it gets down to meaningful poker quicker. You 242 00:11:40.000 --> 00:11:41.799 sit down, you got one hundred and twenty five big blinds. 243 00:11:41.840 --> 00:11:45.000 You're playing thirty minute levels, so like immediately each pot matters, 244 00:11:45.320 --> 00:11:47.720 like you play. You play a raised pot in level one, 245 00:11:47.759 --> 00:11:50.960 like it's like you're like, okay, like stacks can easily 246 00:11:51.000 --> 00:11:53.039 go in, you know, I mean, yeah, we're pretty deep, 247 00:11:53.039 --> 00:11:55.240 but like still stacks can get in here, right. You 248 00:11:55.240 --> 00:11:56.919 play a three bet pot and you're like, okay, like 249 00:11:57.039 --> 00:11:59.440 we're probably we might be playing for stacks here depending 250 00:11:59.440 --> 00:12:02.559 on what happened. So it's a bit faster. It speeds 251 00:12:02.600 --> 00:12:04.840 things up, which then led me to believe that, you know, 252 00:12:04.840 --> 00:12:07.120 why are people firing and re entering? What what the 253 00:12:07.159 --> 00:12:09.120 heck is going on? So ran a little bit bad there? 254 00:12:09.279 --> 00:12:11.000 If you run better there, you know, I think we 255 00:12:11.080 --> 00:12:14.000 get up to you know, two fifty two sixty easily 256 00:12:14.279 --> 00:12:16.240 you add in those players that weren't here. You know, 257 00:12:16.279 --> 00:12:18.240 I think we're at the three hundred number, but still 258 00:12:18.440 --> 00:12:19.559 I think room of improvement. 259 00:12:19.639 --> 00:12:22.840 I guess, before we move on to the result, the 260 00:12:22.919 --> 00:12:27.799 results and the other events, what do you think we 261 00:12:27.879 --> 00:12:30.480 should or could change or at least have you know, 262 00:12:30.759 --> 00:12:34.159 what's the discussion points for the next one? You know, personally, 263 00:12:34.240 --> 00:12:37.120 I feel like I think there is a discussion there. Hey, 264 00:12:37.159 --> 00:12:39.279 let's like you just mentioned, let's move the starting sack 265 00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:41.879 up to one fifty, one hundred and fifty thousand, but 266 00:12:42.960 --> 00:12:46.399 add those two more hours of registration. So basically we're talking, 267 00:12:46.759 --> 00:12:50.039 you know, six hours of registration instead of four level wise, 268 00:12:50.080 --> 00:12:53.559 not including breaks, and but you get a little more, 269 00:12:53.600 --> 00:12:55.840 a little more at the start. So but the guys 270 00:12:55.879 --> 00:12:58.200 that are in for one bullet, that's fine, they are 271 00:12:58.200 --> 00:13:01.000 actually going to start a little deeper. I'd actually pull 272 00:13:01.080 --> 00:13:03.840 some people into the to that buying point. But then 273 00:13:03.879 --> 00:13:06.960 also you do have that two more levels, the two 274 00:13:07.000 --> 00:13:10.919 more hours for like you said, the re entries, et cetera. 275 00:13:11.600 --> 00:13:14.679 Yeah, I mean I think I would explore that, you know, 276 00:13:14.720 --> 00:13:16.200 I would also want to explore and I know I 277 00:13:16.200 --> 00:13:17.879 brought this up to you before, but instead of doing 278 00:13:17.879 --> 00:13:19.960 it three max bullets per day, just doing two max 279 00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:23.159 bullets per day, just because I think that there might 280 00:13:23.159 --> 00:13:25.200 be some people who they come into the event where 281 00:13:25.200 --> 00:13:28.000 they're like, Okay, I'm going to fire three or four bullets, 282 00:13:28.039 --> 00:13:31.000 not six, and then they're like they bust one on 283 00:13:31.080 --> 00:13:32.840 the first day, and then they're like, well, I'll just 284 00:13:32.879 --> 00:13:34.840 go home and I'll come back and fire the max 285 00:13:34.879 --> 00:13:35.639 three the next. 286 00:13:35.480 --> 00:13:37.559 Day, so I might players have said that to you. 287 00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:39.440 I might do just two and two one in a 288 00:13:39.480 --> 00:13:41.600 re entry, one in a re entry, and then hopefully 289 00:13:41.600 --> 00:13:43.799 you get people just to really achieve the four. 290 00:13:43.960 --> 00:13:44.200 See. 291 00:13:44.240 --> 00:13:46.120 I had a point I made with Paul is that 292 00:13:46.480 --> 00:13:48.559 we should change the rule to be because it's six 293 00:13:48.639 --> 00:13:52.360 total entries right, one one buying two re entries on each, 294 00:13:52.600 --> 00:13:55.559 just be six total, six total, because I was thinking, like, 295 00:13:55.600 --> 00:13:58.120 you have a Mike Munchet kind of guy or someone 296 00:13:58.159 --> 00:14:00.279 that you know, we talk about the Saturday being the 297 00:14:00.360 --> 00:14:03.000 day too, sorry, the day one b you know, we 298 00:14:03.080 --> 00:14:06.279 got college sports on or you know, obviously different times 299 00:14:06.480 --> 00:14:08.840 we have different things on. But hey, I can only 300 00:14:08.879 --> 00:14:12.039 play Friday, but I can play Sunday. I can't play Saturday. 301 00:14:12.559 --> 00:14:16.679 So give that guy a chance of putting six bullets 302 00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:18.240 on that day and then he's just he's done the 303 00:14:18.279 --> 00:14:20.840 next day, like he can't even register, even if he's like, 304 00:14:21.000 --> 00:14:23.000 oh I can't play now, Like, no, sorry, You've had 305 00:14:23.000 --> 00:14:26.600 your six bullets. That's it. That's kind of one option 306 00:14:26.919 --> 00:14:29.279 I brought up with Paul here. He didn't love it, 307 00:14:29.360 --> 00:14:32.279 but I think it's still worth at least discussing a 308 00:14:32.320 --> 00:14:32.840 little further. 309 00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:35.879 Yeah, I mean I think that's that's a decent option. 310 00:14:35.919 --> 00:14:38.320 I think we can attack the satellites a little bit more. 311 00:14:38.480 --> 00:14:40.720 I thought the satellites were good, but I think we 312 00:14:40.720 --> 00:14:43.720 could add one or two to them, which I think 313 00:14:43.799 --> 00:14:46.720 is a good thing. And we're gonna we're gonna have 314 00:14:46.840 --> 00:14:48.799 kind of the idea of what I thought of with 315 00:14:48.919 --> 00:14:52.679 satellites for the PGT T Classic event that is coming 316 00:14:52.759 --> 00:14:55.799 up in December, so we'll be able to get some 317 00:14:55.919 --> 00:14:58.080 data on how we think that works, or if we 318 00:14:58.120 --> 00:15:00.600 do think it works, and then maybe we can push 319 00:15:00.679 --> 00:15:02.360 that forward to do it, you know, for the Poke 320 00:15:02.480 --> 00:15:04.200 Rol Cup or for the US Poke Grove and for 321 00:15:04.279 --> 00:15:08.159 this style of event. So all in all, my thought 322 00:15:08.320 --> 00:15:11.200 is good, not great room for improvement, but that's fine, 323 00:15:11.360 --> 00:15:13.840 you know it was, you know, I don't. I think 324 00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:16.879 if you come into anything and you think you're just 325 00:15:16.879 --> 00:15:18.639 going to bat a thousand and you're gonna get eight 326 00:15:18.639 --> 00:15:20.600 pluses on everything and you're gonna smash it out of 327 00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:23.320 the park constantly, I think you're just a fool for 328 00:15:23.360 --> 00:15:26.200 ever thinking that some things aren't always going to go 329 00:15:26.399 --> 00:15:29.480 as good as possible. And I would even say if 330 00:15:29.720 --> 00:15:33.200 you're constantly hitting things out of the park and smashing 331 00:15:33.240 --> 00:15:35.799 home runs, et cetera. You might be doing something wrong. 332 00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:37.720 Maybe you're falling short. For example. 333 00:15:38.360 --> 00:15:42.080 I think the one other thing we're discussing too, is 334 00:15:42.120 --> 00:15:45.519 that at the day two of the event, you know 335 00:15:45.519 --> 00:15:47.399 what we're going to talk about soon, was pretty short. 336 00:15:48.080 --> 00:15:50.480 Maybe we just combined day two with the final table, 337 00:15:50.799 --> 00:15:54.440 or that option is make day two a lot more 338 00:15:54.440 --> 00:15:57.519 play friendly, wind the clock back a bit further, you know, 339 00:15:57.559 --> 00:16:00.000 et cetera. So some of those little things we're gonna 340 00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:03.679 look at, tweak and figure out kind of the best. 341 00:16:03.919 --> 00:16:06.320 You know, we're always making changes here on the PGT 342 00:16:06.480 --> 00:16:08.759 to be the best for the players, and this one 343 00:16:08.799 --> 00:16:10.679 we're gonna have to look at all the different levels 344 00:16:10.720 --> 00:16:12.799 of it and make some adjustment for. 345 00:16:12.919 --> 00:16:18.080 The Poker Masters. One, maybe you do three day ones 346 00:16:18.720 --> 00:16:22.759 with the third day one on Sunday too, because so 347 00:16:22.879 --> 00:16:25.799 many of the players voice the football thing, Like that's 348 00:16:25.840 --> 00:16:29.320 a real thing for us. It's different in a lot 349 00:16:29.320 --> 00:16:31.080 of spots, and I know it breaks that rule of 350 00:16:31.120 --> 00:16:33.759 like you want the final flight to happen on Saturday 351 00:16:34.159 --> 00:16:36.000 and whatever, But like I feel like we have just 352 00:16:36.080 --> 00:16:39.200 kind of a different clientele of players, you know, So 353 00:16:39.240 --> 00:16:41.200 maybe then you just get some of these players too. 354 00:16:41.360 --> 00:16:42.879 It's just a little bit better for them and that 355 00:16:42.919 --> 00:16:45.200 they can fire the bullets on you know, Friday or 356 00:16:45.279 --> 00:16:48.399 Saturday and then hopefully they advance or whatever. But they 357 00:16:48.399 --> 00:16:50.039 have the option to play Sunday if they want. If 358 00:16:50.039 --> 00:16:51.759 they don't want to play, fine, If they want to 359 00:16:51.799 --> 00:16:53.799 watch football day, because that's what these guys want to do, 360 00:16:53.840 --> 00:16:56.720 then fine. You know, so maybe we just do it 361 00:16:56.759 --> 00:16:58.559 that way, but only for Masters because that's the only 362 00:16:58.559 --> 00:17:01.960 one that takes place during football season. So anyway, just 363 00:17:02.000 --> 00:17:06.200 the thought there. And one more thing. Did I talk 364 00:17:06.200 --> 00:17:11.119 about my satellite idea on the last podcast about making 365 00:17:11.160 --> 00:17:15.480 deals in satellites. I've talked with you about your career. Yeah, 366 00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:17.359 I want to bring it up here. Okay, because I 367 00:17:17.400 --> 00:17:21.599 played the satellite for this tournament and I got my seat. 368 00:17:21.759 --> 00:17:23.359 I was going to play anyway again, but I got 369 00:17:23.359 --> 00:17:24.680 a seat, so it was it was great to have 370 00:17:24.759 --> 00:17:29.559 that little free roll. We're down to eleven players left, 371 00:17:29.839 --> 00:17:32.880 nine got seats, tenth got like twenty three hundred dollars 372 00:17:32.960 --> 00:17:35.359 or something, and they have you know, you know how 373 00:17:35.400 --> 00:17:38.440 Bravo has on the screen Chop Value and Chop Valley 374 00:17:38.480 --> 00:17:40.119 at the time was like forty one hundred and then 375 00:17:40.119 --> 00:17:41.599 we lost a player, and it was like, you know, whatever, 376 00:17:41.640 --> 00:17:46.200 forty three hundred or something, why don't they allow chops 377 00:17:46.240 --> 00:17:52.119 in satellites under the notion that it is not chopped, 378 00:17:52.200 --> 00:17:54.799 Take the cash it is chop tape. Take a voucher 379 00:17:55.000 --> 00:17:58.400 for the tournament. Because we're eleven players left. If I 380 00:17:58.440 --> 00:18:00.480 would have said, hey, everyone, do you want to we 381 00:18:00.519 --> 00:18:02.720 all get forty one hundred, we have to come out 382 00:18:02.799 --> 00:18:05.039 of pocket for nine hundred or one thousand dollars to 383 00:18:05.039 --> 00:18:07.720 play the tournament, we're still saving a ton of money 384 00:18:08.039 --> 00:18:09.759 and we just get to end it right there, like 385 00:18:09.799 --> 00:18:12.680 it's just over with whatever. Not a big deal versus 386 00:18:13.720 --> 00:18:16.960 you risk. I mean that the ours went on forever, 387 00:18:17.640 --> 00:18:20.319 Like multiple people of us got in with like either 388 00:18:20.599 --> 00:18:22.799 between point five and two big blinds. I got in 389 00:18:22.839 --> 00:18:24.680 with one big blind. Like it was just it was 390 00:18:24.759 --> 00:18:26.920 kind of ridiculous at that point. It's just like like 391 00:18:27.279 --> 00:18:30.279 it got to the point where because of the way 392 00:18:30.319 --> 00:18:32.240 the stacks were, and like the average stack was like 393 00:18:32.279 --> 00:18:34.240 eight big blinds or seven big blinds or something, so 394 00:18:34.279 --> 00:18:37.640 it's like you could really just like have high carded 395 00:18:37.640 --> 00:18:40.000 for the person to finish in tenth place and not 396 00:18:40.000 --> 00:18:42.799 get the money. So when it just becomes such a luckfest. 397 00:18:42.839 --> 00:18:45.200 At that point, well who even cares? And like the 398 00:18:45.240 --> 00:18:48.319 chip leaders, like the chip leader mic Ca, Well here's 399 00:18:48.359 --> 00:18:50.119 the thing. The chip leader, like the chip leader at 400 00:18:50.119 --> 00:18:52.160 my table was not even doing anything. He wasn't raising, 401 00:18:52.240 --> 00:18:53.799
