1
00:00:10,919 --> 00:00:13,240
Speaker 1: Hello everyone, and welcome back to a new episode of

00:00:13,359 --> 00:00:16,519

00:00:20,679 --> 00:00:24,120
and we got a new location today. Tim want to

5
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:26,760
switch things up. Had a little bit of an issue

6
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:29,480
with our studio, if that's what you want to do.

7
00:00:29,519 --> 00:00:30,719
Speaker 2: It was taken.

8
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:34,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean we use it without photographers. So they're

9
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,920
shooting some photos of some special stuff that you guys

10
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:41,880

11
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:45,560
not that, some to be announced stuff that is coming

12
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:47,960
down the pipeline. They're they're taking care of that. So

13
00:00:48,399 --> 00:00:52,560
we relocated out here to the floor of the Horseshoe

14
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:57,520
Events Center, Bronze Table six twenty. Yeah, so when anyone

15
00:00:57,520 --> 00:00:59,600
sits at this table when they're playing throughout the summer,

16
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,479
they can be like, that's where they recorded the podcast. Yep,

17
00:01:02,679 --> 00:01:06,159
that's where they recorded it. On today's show, we got

18
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:10,599
Benny Glasser winning number two and number seven. You'll understand

19
00:01:10,599 --> 00:01:12,439
why if you're a little bit confused as to why

20
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,159
I said it like that. Lou Garza comes back to

21
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:18,519

23
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,879
there somewhere, and the two K no limit where's that?

24
00:01:26,879 --> 00:01:29,400
That's on the main stage over there somewhere. They are

25
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,400
both playing down. Not quite sure that we'll get to

26
00:01:32,439 --> 00:01:35,400
the winner in those tonight, so Tim and I are

27
00:01:35,439 --> 00:01:38,799
recording early. We'll touch on that, we'll see where they're at,

28
00:01:38,879 --> 00:01:40,879
and then we'll wrap them up on the next episode

29
00:01:40,879 --> 00:01:43,599
of the show. We got the fifteen hundred dollars Nolanman

31
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,200

60
00:03:10,759 --> 00:03:11,159
Speaker 2: Let's go.

61
00:03:12,199 --> 00:03:17,479
Speaker 1: Benny Glaser baby winning number two and number seven if

62
00:03:17,479 --> 00:03:20,280
you can believe it. The reason why I say it

63
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:24,280
like that is because he won the second gold bracelet

64
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,159
for his summer here in twenty twenty five, and it's

65
00:03:27,199 --> 00:03:34,159
only what nine days in crazy his seventh career WSP

66
00:03:34,479 --> 00:03:38,360
gold bracelet. He won the fifteen hundred dollars Mixed Omaha

67
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,960
for two hundred and fifty eight thousand dollars, a big field,

68
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,759
twelve hundred and thirty nine entries in that one Glazer

69
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,680
Glaser came into the final day three players remaining. He

70
00:03:49,719 --> 00:03:52,240
had the big lead. He ended up closing it out.

71
00:03:52,879 --> 00:03:56,599
He's got two cashes on the summer and they're both wins.

72
00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,439
He won the fifteen hundred dollars Dealer's Choice and then

73
00:03:59,479 --> 00:04:02,840
the next tournament that he played was the fifteen hundred

74
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:06,080
dollars Mixed Omaha and he won that. So Benny Glaser

75
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,199
hasn't lost a tournament in six days. Bet, I mean,

76
00:04:09,199 --> 00:04:12,360
it's just absolutely incredible stuff, right, first two times bracelet

77
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:17,360
winner here in twenty twenty five. He has seven career bracelets.

78
00:04:17,439 --> 00:04:21,079
As I mentioned, after he won it, he was nice

79
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,560
enough to come meet up with you on the main

80
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:27,240
stage and chat for quite a bit, a fairly lengthy interview.

81
00:04:27,319 --> 00:04:29,879
So let's go to that interview with Tim and Benny

82
00:04:30,079 --> 00:04:30,560
right now.

83
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:37,519
Speaker 2: Benny Glaza, congratulations, seven time WSSP bracelet winner. Noway, one

84
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:38,920
thing I want to talk to you about first is

85
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,879
that there's a big streak here at the WSP players

86
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,000
winning two bracelets stretching back to two thousand and now

87
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,360
you have continued that twenty six seas in a row

88
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,319
after you won your first one this week. Was that

89
00:04:50,399 --> 00:04:52,759
something immediately on your mind? You want to win a

90
00:04:52,759 --> 00:04:54,759
second bracelet and a fourth this series?

91
00:04:55,199 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 3: It was on my mind. Yeah, I had agreed essentially

92
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,199
infinite messages also just putting it in my mind, just

93
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,000
being like, we see another bracelet for you this series

94
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:08,759
as well, and you know, for going for three, it's

95
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:12,120
obviously like a stretch of a goal, but it's absolutely

96
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,160
been on my mind. I was really looking forward to

97
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:16,439
coming in for a big summer this time.

98
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:17,839
Speaker 4: Yeah.

99
00:05:18,079 --> 00:05:20,160
Speaker 2: There's only two players in the history of the WSP

100
00:05:20,319 --> 00:05:22,920
that have won seven braces bicker them Johnny Mass and

101
00:05:22,959 --> 00:05:25,720
Phil Ivy. You know, is that these kind of like

102
00:05:25,879 --> 00:05:27,720
records that and history.

103
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 4: In the WSP. Is that stuff that you care about?

104
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,319
Speaker 3: Yeah? I think so, Like there are one or two records.

105
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,199
I don't know if I have, like am I the

106
00:05:35,319 --> 00:05:38,240
quickest ever double bracelet in a year for example, yeah?

107
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,600
Or if I yeah, or maybe the only person to

108
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,439
get back to back twice, Like these are things that

109
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,959
I think are just incredible achievements that yeah, I'm just

110
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:48,759
proud of.

111
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 2: It's amazing.

112
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 4: I think a lot of people know you as a

113
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:52,800
mixed game player.

114
00:05:52,879 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, how important is it to you to win games

115
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,040
in multiple variants? Not just you know all in horse

116
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,519
or all inside, but you you have brasus in four games,

117
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,439
you have to seven, you have omaha, hi, Low, you

118
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:06,279
have the other choice?

119
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:08,439
Speaker 4: How important that to you? Is your you know, your

120
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:09,120
poker resume.

121
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:14,199
Speaker 3: I like to think it adds credibility to me as

122
00:06:14,199 --> 00:06:17,439
an overall poker player, which is something I definitely strike

123
00:06:17,519 --> 00:06:21,600
for just to be a well or rounded player. And yeah,

124
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:25,360
it's important, and it's very useful for the World Series

125
00:06:25,399 --> 00:06:29,759
when I can potentially jump into any event and have

126
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,360
the potential for a bracelet, Like if there's any event

127
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:35,399
like we do you today, I feel like, oh that

128
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:37,240
has a chance of Yeah, me wondering.

129
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,759
Speaker 2: Yet you have two and two braces seven, You have

130
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,040
two in omahah Low, And I guess you can kind

131
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:44,920
of call this as a third or you know, be

132
00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:45,759
two thirds high Low.

133
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:48,759
Speaker 4: What is your best game when it comes to the

134
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:49,519
mixed games?

135
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 3: I think generally my best game is limit Await. Okay,

136
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:55,920
it's close, but I think that's the one that I

137
00:06:55,959 --> 00:06:57,079
normally considers my best.

138
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 2: We talked about, you know, your impressive from resume on

139
00:07:00,519 --> 00:07:02,800
the Poko podcast the other day. Yeah, we kind of thought,

140
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,920
you know, Benny's following his path of phil ivey. You know,

141
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,480
eleven bracelets in eight different variants, but no no limit

142
00:07:09,519 --> 00:07:12,639
hold embracelets. Is that something that like you care about

143
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:14,639
or is it just you know, bracelet is a bracelet

144
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:14,839
to me.

145
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,439
Speaker 3: I mean I would like to win a no limit bracelet.

146
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,959
I think that would also be very cool. But just

147
00:07:19,959 --> 00:07:22,439
the reality is I prioritize mixed so much more during

148
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,519
the summer that I'm probably only paying five, maybe six

149
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,800
no limit events throughout the whole summer, So it's just

150
00:07:28,959 --> 00:07:31,160
much more likely I'm going to win a mixed bracelet

151
00:07:31,199 --> 00:07:33,680
during the summer. But yeah, I think a no limit

152
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:35,279
hold embracer would also be very cool.

153
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 2: I want to kind of talk a little bit about

154
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:38,680
young your legacy as a poker player.

155
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 4: You're not forty yet. It's coming twenty twenty nine, you'll

156
00:07:41,959 --> 00:07:43,040
be eligible for the Poker.

157
00:07:42,879 --> 00:07:43,319
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame.

158
00:07:43,839 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 4: I believe in a few names that are also eligible.

159
00:07:47,079 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 2: That year you got pads Stephen Chidwick got Doug Poking

160
00:07:50,279 --> 00:07:50,920
at Dance Smith.

161
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 4: Now, obviously, right now the Hall of Fame is just

162
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:53,800
one person in.

163
00:07:54,399 --> 00:07:57,480
Speaker 2: But for something for you? Is that something you're really

164
00:07:57,519 --> 00:08:00,120
striving for? I want to know stamp my name in

165
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,360
the history book, and I want to be a first

166
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:03,680
ballot straining.

167
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:03,879
Speaker 4: A whole time.

168
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 3: That would be something that's very cool. Like that achievement

169
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:14,879
is something I'm aiming for and would be very proud of.

170
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,000
That was a very strong list of names. I don't

171
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,120
know about that. I don't know about the first ballot.

172
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,680
That would be very cool. That's going to be a

173
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:23,800
tough year, I guess, but yeah, it's something I would

174
00:08:24,279 --> 00:08:26,959
aim for and be incredibly proud of.

175
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, when the dust settles on your POPA three, hopefully

176
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,360
it's not for another forty fifteen years from here. What

177
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,720
do you want people to like look back on as

178
00:08:34,879 --> 00:08:36,039
as Benny the Poper play?

179
00:08:36,519 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 4: What do you want your legacy to be?

180
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:41,639
Speaker 2: Strong?

181
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 3: Question? I mean, firstly just ability. I guess I would

182
00:08:49,279 --> 00:08:53,360
like to think people think I'm good for was very good.

183
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:59,320
And then I guess the question is how much this

184
00:08:59,399 --> 00:09:03,279
personality come in to I want people to think I

185
00:09:03,399 --> 00:09:09,679
was maybe gracious or whatever, like in the ways I'm

186
00:09:09,919 --> 00:09:14,960
winning or the ways I'm playing. There's a few things

187
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,879
like that that would nice, you know, just being a

188
00:09:17,919 --> 00:09:21,600
good human hopefully as well. Things like that would be

189
00:09:21,799 --> 00:09:22,960
nice to be thought of in that way.

190
00:09:23,039 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, we haven't busted the tournament in six days. I

191
00:09:25,759 --> 00:09:27,799
believe we've got a fifteen hundred doogie up next. You're

192
00:09:27,799 --> 00:09:29,879
probably gonna maybe get some dinner and see if you

193
00:09:29,879 --> 00:09:33,159
can make that nine days without being a limited eliminated.

194
00:09:33,159 --> 00:09:36,759
But congratulations, seven time WSP bracelet winner Benny Blasa.

195
00:09:36,919 --> 00:09:37,679
Speaker 3: Thank you very much man.

196
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 2: All right.

197
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 1: That was Benny Glauser, moments after he secured his seventh

198
00:09:43,279 --> 00:09:48,039
career gold bracelet. All of his bracelets are in mixed games,

199
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,440
as you touched upon in that interview with him. What

200
00:09:50,519 --> 00:09:55,120
does that say about where he ranks among I mean

201
00:09:55,279 --> 00:09:58,480
two really two things. One among the great mixed game

202
00:09:58,519 --> 00:10:01,159
players and then the other thing is among the great

203
00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:04,279
WSOP players. Because there are very few people that have

204
00:10:04,399 --> 00:10:05,879
seven or more bracelets.

205
00:10:05,919 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 2: So what do you think? Yeah, he's right up there.

206
00:10:08,759 --> 00:10:11,600
I mentioned in the interview. The person his career is

207
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,559
kind of following in is Phil Ivy. Eleven bracelets in

208
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:19,559
eight This different progravariance. You know, Benny is on track

209
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,120
to do something similar. I mean, you know, that's kind

210
00:10:21,159 --> 00:10:22,559
why I'm kind of ask him about the no limit

211
00:10:22,639 --> 00:10:27,000
hold Him bracelet as as it comes to obviously modern players,

212
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:30,080
he is, without doubt one of the best that the

213
00:10:30,159 --> 00:10:34,840
WSP has. The record stands, you know, seven bracelets in

214
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:38,720
eleven years something like that. It's just outstanding. And you

215
00:10:38,759 --> 00:10:41,799
know he's going to be competing for many years to come.

216
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:43,639
He's still young. He's younger than both of you and me.

217
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,720
He's I think he's he turns thirty six or thirty

218
00:10:46,759 --> 00:10:50,639
seven in a couple of days, so still very very young.

219
00:10:51,279 --> 00:10:56,000
And I mean he's not going to stop. He's gonna

220
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,279
he's probably going to get to ten pretty soon, I think. Yeah.

221
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 1: So it's interest as you kind of compare him to

222
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,080
Phil iuve of him. I'm saying you specifically, just in general,

223
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,600
I think Phil has a chance to win a nolan

224
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:13,240
At Hold Him bracelet more so than Benny. And the

225
00:11:13,279 --> 00:11:16,279
reason why I say that is Phil is for sure

226
00:11:16,399 --> 00:11:19,120
going to be in all the twenty five k plus

227
00:11:19,879 --> 00:11:22,320
nolan Ath hold Them tournaments. Now, of course those are

228
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:26,159
very tough, yes, but Phil is very good at nolam

229
00:11:26,159 --> 00:11:29,559
A hold them and they're just smaller fields, you know,

230
00:11:29,639 --> 00:11:31,679
the fifty K, the hunter k, the two to fifty k,

231
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,679
like that sort of stuff. You know, he can certainly

232
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,000
win those where I don't think Benny is going to

233
00:11:37,039 --> 00:11:40,120
be playing I'll say fifty k plus. You know, maybe

234
00:11:40,159 --> 00:11:42,559
he dabbles in a twenty five K, especially, I would

235
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:45,919
say this summer, especially because now he's obviously with these

236
00:11:45,919 --> 00:11:49,519
two bracelets, early the front runner for player of the year.

237
00:11:49,639 --> 00:11:52,279
So does he press a little bit harder similar to

238
00:11:52,279 --> 00:11:54,519
what we saw with dan Zach a couple of years ago.

239
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,159
Dan Zach is known as a mixed game player, and

240
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:58,440
then all of a sudden he's like, I got to

241
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,360
play this two hundred fifty K super high role because

242
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,039
I got to get in there for a chance at

243
00:12:02,039 --> 00:12:03,000
the poy points.

244
00:12:03,279 --> 00:12:03,519
Speaker 2: Yeah.

245
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,320
Speaker 1: So do we see a similar sort of thing with Benny.

246
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:08,279
Speaker 2: I don't think we see it to the same degree

247
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,759
as dan Zach. We both saw Benny skip the twenty

248
00:12:11,759 --> 00:12:13,480
five K half enough, I thought the field maybe it

249
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:15,759
was a little tough opted for an event where his

250
00:12:15,919 --> 00:12:18,720
edge is kind of greater, which was the mixed Omaha

251
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,679
obviously paid off and I think that's what's going to happen.

252
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:25,919
If Benny has you know, a five K no limit

253
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,840
or fifteen hundred no limit or he has, say, you know,

254
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,919
fifteen hundred dollars start eight, I think he's always going

255
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:33,320
to go with the mixed game. He's going to lean

256
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,360
into his strengths, which is the mixed games, any mix

257
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,960
game we have on the schedule. But yeah, he it's

258
00:12:40,039 --> 00:12:42,120
it will be interesting if he can get a couple

259
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,720
more results, a couple more cashes, and maybe another final

260
00:12:44,759 --> 00:12:46,919
table here and there. Maybe does he take a swing

261
00:12:47,399 --> 00:12:50,000
at a twenty five k or fifty k no limit

262
00:12:50,039 --> 00:12:53,039
holder or even plhi rolla to try and lock up

263
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:56,480
player the I think that's you know, ask him about legacy.

264
00:12:56,759 --> 00:12:59,679
I think that's something where it would really interest him.

265
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,840
Adding having a poy bannihanas at the time comes push,

266
00:13:02,879 --> 00:13:04,919
comes to shove, you know, it wouldn't surprise me if

267
00:13:04,919 --> 00:13:07,759
he does take a shot when needed. Now.

268
00:13:07,879 --> 00:13:10,799
Speaker 1: At the twenty twenty three WSP, we saw Chad eve

269
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:15,559
Sledge when Event five and Event ten both dealers Choice tournaments.

270
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,320
He won the fifteen hundred dollars Dealer's Choice and then

271
00:13:17,399 --> 00:13:21,159
won the ten K dealer's choice, so very early on

272
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,720
for him getting two bracelets. He also, like like Benny

273
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:28,440
this year, he had two cashes then they were both victories.

274
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:32,919
You know that obviously kickstarted his WSP campaign in a

275
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:37,639
very big way. But after those two wins, he didn't

276
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:42,639
final table another live WSP event in Vegas during that summer,

277
00:13:42,919 --> 00:13:44,919
So you know, I just kind of use that as

278
00:13:44,919 --> 00:13:46,840
a jumping off point. You know, how do you think

279
00:13:47,039 --> 00:13:49,639
the remainder of Benny's summer is going to go. Is

280
00:13:49,639 --> 00:13:51,120
it going to be similar to what we saw with

281
00:13:51,159 --> 00:13:54,600
Chat Eve Sledge win these two early and then you know,

282
00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:56,600
don't get back to a final table in the future,

283
00:13:56,759 --> 00:13:58,960
or are we just going to see Benny continue to

284
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:00,000
you know, tear this place down.

285
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,759
Speaker 2: You know what, I would say, that's pretty hot, pretty

286
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:06,799
high high variance there for Chad not having another big

287
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,840
result after the starting so strongly. But if you had

288
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:10,960
asked him before the World Series, hey, you're going to

289
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,159
make two final tables, win two braces Are you okay

290
00:14:13,159 --> 00:14:16,799
with that guarantee? He says one hundred percent. So you know,

291
00:14:16,879 --> 00:14:19,279
if Benny does break the rest of the series, if

292
00:14:19,279 --> 00:14:20,720
he can, you know, maybe.

293
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,360
Speaker 1: It's well it's not that Chad Brick the rest of

294
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:25,000
the story, but a couple of finishes in the teams

295
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:26,440
and whatever. It just didn't make it to.

296
00:14:26,399 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 2: The final table. I think Benny would be pretty happy

297
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,360
with this now, the fact that he started so hot,

298
00:14:31,679 --> 00:14:34,799
you know, two wins in two events over six days.

299
00:14:35,399 --> 00:14:39,480
He's probably setting the bar very high for what comes

300
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,120
for the rest of the series. You know, like, hey,

301
00:14:42,159 --> 00:14:45,200
I've knocked off two and it's only June fifth. You know,

302
00:14:45,279 --> 00:14:47,080
where's the third bra when's the third brace that come?

303
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,360
When's the fourth bracelet come? When's the fifth bracelet coming?

304
00:14:49,759 --> 00:14:52,000
You know, so you set those standards pretty high, so

305
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,519
it would probably disappoint him if he doesn't make at

306
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,159
least another big run at a third bracelet. Here.

307
00:14:57,679 --> 00:14:59,759
Speaker 1: I want to see someone win a four bracelets and

308
00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:02,320
ess it never happened, you know, I really want to

309
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:05,559
see that. I think Benny is one of those players

310
00:15:05,559 --> 00:15:09,159
who has as good of a shot as anyone just

311
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:11,639
because of how good he is when it comes to

312
00:15:11,679 --> 00:15:13,600
playing mixed games. He's going to be in all those

313
00:15:13,639 --> 00:15:18,679
ten K Mixed Game Championship events, which they have anywhere

314
00:15:18,679 --> 00:15:21,960
from one hundred to one hundred and fifty, maybe one

315
00:15:22,039 --> 00:15:24,159
hundred and seventy five players something like that. You know,

316
00:15:24,159 --> 00:15:26,080
I think, well, we still have the ten k horse

317
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:27,519
that's going to be a big one. We had the

318
00:15:27,519 --> 00:15:29,600
ten k Omaha that was, you know, one of the

319
00:15:29,639 --> 00:15:31,799
bigger ones. But you know the ten k stud study

320
00:15:31,879 --> 00:15:34,159
stuff like that, that's you know kind of like around

321
00:15:34,159 --> 00:15:36,759
what one twenty ish or so. He's obviously going to

322
00:15:36,799 --> 00:15:38,960
be in the fifty k so you know he'll he'll

323
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,000
have as good of a chance as anyone in that event.

324
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,759
Speaker 2: So it's it's not even just you know the size

325
00:15:43,799 --> 00:15:45,519
of the fields. I want to go back to twenty

326
00:15:45,559 --> 00:15:48,399
fifteen when George Danze won he's three bracelets. He won

327
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,080
two here in Vegas, one in Asia Pacific.

328
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, that third one doesn't count, it does He established

329
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:55,000
that doesn't count.

330
00:15:56,240 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 2: I'm going that's with you. Seventy nine events the entire year,

331
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,960
seventy nine events with the entire yearlevent brace events, right

332
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,960
when George Dan's are one, three for Benny with two already,

333
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,480
we have one hundred live bracelet events here, we have

334
00:16:11,559 --> 00:16:15,759
thirty online. We're going to have fifty sixteen in Paradise.

335
00:16:15,919 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 1: I'm not sure Benny's going to be playing in the online.

336
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 2: Sixteen, but we're gonna have sixteen in Europe. We're going

337
00:16:20,399 --> 00:16:23,639
to have another thirty three online in the fall, right,

338
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,679
So we're looking at something like two hundred and forty

339
00:16:26,679 --> 00:16:30,279
five bracelet events versus seventy nine, basically three x thing

340
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:34,039
when George Danzer won three. So you know, it's not

341
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:37,279
just about the field sizes, it's also about the amount

342
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,840
of volume Benny can put in between now and Christmas

343
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,200
to try and win a third bracelet. Yeah, and the

344
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:44,200
fourth and fifth.

345
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,559
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, yeah, but here, I want the three

346
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:50,799
or the four to happen here in the summer in

347
00:16:50,879 --> 00:16:51,559
Las Vegas.

348
00:16:51,559 --> 00:16:55,879
Speaker 2: You want the Jeff lissand or the field iv ted, you.

349
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 1: Know, like I don't. I don't want it to extend elsewhere,

350
00:16:59,559 --> 00:17:03,559
you know, I just wanted to be this series, and

351
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:05,880
I still think he has a great chance to do it.

352
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:09,119
There are so many bracelet events left and ones that

353
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:12,400
are going to be great for him to be able

354
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,640
to get in there in Battle. I mean, it won't

355
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:16,519
be easy. There's a lot of tough competition some of

356
00:17:16,559 --> 00:17:18,920
the events that he plays, Yes, but Benny is an

357
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:22,480
absolute elite player, So you know, I look forward to

358
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,039
to watching his quests for the rest of this summer.

359
00:17:25,039 --> 00:17:27,279
We have, we have so much time to go, so

360
00:17:27,319 --> 00:17:30,000
it's going to be a fun sweat the whole way.

361
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:31,039
Speaker 2: Another thing that.

362
00:17:31,039 --> 00:17:34,200
Speaker 1: You hit on with him in the interview is the

363
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,079
Poker Hall of Fame and what getting in would mean

364
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,640
to him. You know, let me ask you. I know,

365
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,759
on the interview, you were playing the interviewee, you're asking

366
00:17:42,799 --> 00:17:45,640
the questions, you know, but here I'm asking for your opinion.

367
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,920
Is Benny a Poker Hall of Famer? Obviously when he's

368
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:50,599
old enough, you know, when he's old enough, you know,

369
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:51,799
should he get in?

370
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:53,759
Speaker 2: Yeah? Here we all to join twenty twenty nine, so

371
00:17:53,759 --> 00:17:57,039
a few more years, I would say he's probably a

372
00:17:57,039 --> 00:17:59,359
favorite to at least been one more bracelet between now

373
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,599
and twenty twenty two. Nine one, that's it. I'm saying,

374
00:18:01,599 --> 00:18:04,880
no one a year. Okay, come on, it's gonna win

375
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,559
one more this year, bro right, right, So he's gonna

376
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,880
he's gonna have seventeen bracelets in twenty if he can

377
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:12,759
win one more, he goes to you know, he goes

378
00:18:12,799 --> 00:18:15,519
to eight, he joins, you know, the Grano. Maybe see

379
00:18:15,519 --> 00:18:17,119
if he's got another one. Wait, when does he turn

380
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,519
June seven, twenty twenty nine, also in the middle of

381
00:18:20,559 --> 00:18:23,240
the summer series. Yeah. So, the way some of the

382
00:18:23,279 --> 00:18:25,640
Hall of Fame things work, it's basically when it's announced

383
00:18:25,759 --> 00:18:28,160
the cutoff, and normally it's announced early June around now,

384
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:30,759
so he just falls in twenty twenty nine, depending when

385
00:18:30,759 --> 00:18:34,000
they announced. Let's give him one bracelet, let's give him

386
00:18:34,039 --> 00:18:37,839
eight bracelets. I'll say he's at He's at eleven bracelet.

387
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,680
That's a lot of bracelets. Sure, fine, eleven. Then even

388
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:46,000
without eleven, I think he's is Benny freaking Glazo. Come on, man,

389
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,519
Obviously the issue is how many people get in. I

390
00:18:48,559 --> 00:18:52,319
think he is part of his eligibility class, the number

391
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,720
one pick to get in. Looking at the names that

392
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:57,839
I have that could get in into here we go

393
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:01,240
again with this nonsense. Let me read some names. I

394
00:19:01,279 --> 00:19:06,839
can't wait. I cannot wait to hear the names Stephen Chidwick, Okay,

395
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:13,599
Doug Polk, Pads, Patrick, Leonard Seth Davis, Dan Smith, Sergio, Aito,

396
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:14,559
Daniel Divores.

397
00:19:14,799 --> 00:19:17,160
Speaker 1: I mean, no one you named is getting in. And

398
00:19:17,319 --> 00:19:21,839
Ed Arbustad, where's a net overset? Has she picked up

399
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,200
poker chips or cards in twelve years?

400
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:26,119
Speaker 2: Probably? But yeah, I get we saying. My point is

401
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,599
that he is probably the number one pick on this list.

402
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,440
Speaker 1: Oh he's by fuck, it's not even close. You can

403
00:19:31,599 --> 00:19:35,480
combine careers of people on that list and it's still Benny.

404
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:37,799
I mean, listen, everyone on that list is a great

405
00:19:37,799 --> 00:19:40,559
player and has their place in poker's history book. You know,

406
00:19:40,599 --> 00:19:43,559
I don't want to be smirched these players, but when

407
00:19:43,559 --> 00:19:45,880
you're throwing names at me like this, for the Hall

408
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:49,119
of Fame is the top tier of the top tier,

409
00:19:49,799 --> 00:19:52,799
the most exclusive club is what Hall of Fames are just.

410
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:56,039
Speaker 2: Telling you who's eligible. I'm not saying I'm not I'm

411
00:19:56,079 --> 00:19:59,480
not riding my ballot shadow Dance Smith. I'm just telling

412
00:19:59,519 --> 00:20:02,240
you who's up for nomination. But you know, we have

413
00:20:02,319 --> 00:20:04,559
to look at who is not in. You know, if

414
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:06,720
Jeremy Osmas isn't in by twenty twenty nine, maybe he

415
00:20:06,759 --> 00:20:09,720
has nine bracelets, you know, so he's got to catch

416
00:20:09,759 --> 00:20:12,839
up to Benny. Yeah, well, hopefully going to have eleven.

417
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:17,079
Hopefully it does eleven. But yes, I do think Ben

418
00:20:17,319 --> 00:20:22,799
is a first ballot Hall of Famer, pending whatever changes

419
00:20:22,839 --> 00:20:25,119
they make to get people in. But yeah, he's building

420
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,839
a resume to really establish himself as one of the

421
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,599
best mixed game players in the world, one of the

422
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:35,279
UK's best poker players in general, and you know every

423
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:38,000
day he's going to be out there grinding away, trying

424
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,559
to pick up titles and a mass millions of dollars

425
00:20:41,599 --> 00:20:43,319
in earnings. Yeah.

426
00:20:43,319 --> 00:20:46,559
Speaker 1: Crazy stuff from Benny Glaser to start the twenty twenty

427
00:20:46,599 --> 00:20:48,519
five World Series of Poker.

428
00:20:48,559 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 2: Most importantly, Yeah, I would like producer Rich to rewind

429
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,720
a few episodes, maybe like eight. I'm pretty sure I

430
00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,880
said double bracelet winner by June fifteenth or June tenth

431
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:00,920
or something, so Rich, if you can put you're way

432
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,559
ahead of that. Play it here. It's June fifth. We

433
00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,880
extend that. I think the streak that will never ever end.

434
00:21:08,279 --> 00:21:11,480
Twenty six years in a row we've had a player

435
00:21:11,519 --> 00:21:13,960
win two bracelets in the calendar year, or one hundred

436
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,799
and fourteen double bracelet winners in WSP history.

437
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:26,119
Speaker 1: Okay, well, Ben, he's on the list. Moving on to

438
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:29,200
the twenty five k Nolan at Hold Them Slash PLO,

439
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:33,000
we got lou Garza coming back and heads up play.

440
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,240
He was down four to one against Ben Lamb and

441
00:21:35,319 --> 00:21:38,599
he wins his second career Gold bracelet. More than one

442
00:21:38,759 --> 00:21:42,599
point three million dollars. His first gold bracelet came in

443
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:45,200
twenty twenty three when he won the ten k PLO

444
00:21:45,319 --> 00:21:49,279
Championship event for right around the same amount one million,

445
00:21:49,319 --> 00:21:51,400
three hundred nine thousand, and that one. This one was

446
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:54,160
one million, three hundred and two thousand. Came back against

447
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,079
Ben Lamb in this one. We all know how good

448
00:21:56,279 --> 00:21:58,799
Ben Lamb is at poker, especially when it comes to

449
00:21:58,839 --> 00:22:02,359
the fore card. Very this one ended up finishing out

450
00:22:02,519 --> 00:22:05,839
in no limit hold them and he won with two aces.

451
00:22:06,559 --> 00:22:10,480
Lamb jammed with King ten of clubs. Garza wakes up

452
00:22:10,519 --> 00:22:13,880
with the aces, picks him off and that's that slight

453
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:17,960
sweat on the Queen Jack jack flop, But Lou Garza

454
00:22:18,039 --> 00:22:20,839
held from there and took it down. On the way

455
00:22:21,079 --> 00:22:23,720
to the winner circle. He busted, of course, Ben Lamb.

456
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:27,839
He busted Chang Jiang Yang and Brandon Mitchel. All that

457
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:30,680
was on the final day. Five players returned and then

458
00:22:30,799 --> 00:22:33,759
Robert Cohen also was busted out on the final day

459
00:22:33,799 --> 00:22:37,960
when he was eliminated by Ben Lamb. This was a

460
00:22:38,079 --> 00:22:41,920
PGT qualifying event. It was also streamed on Poker Go,

461
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,799
so if you guys missed the stream it was It

462
00:22:44,839 --> 00:22:47,200
was a quick one about two and a half two hours,

463
00:22:47,279 --> 00:22:49,039
forty five minutes something like that. So if you missed it,

464
00:22:49,039 --> 00:22:50,759
you want to go watch it, you can find the

465
00:22:50,839 --> 00:22:54,920
on demand replay on poker Go. But for you, sir,

466
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:59,119
mister PGG commissioner, as was a PGT qualifying event. So

467
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,160
what the heck do the results here do for the leaderboard.

468
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:05,400
I'm assuming there's some shake ups because there was a

469
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,039
lot of points of there's going.

470
00:23:07,039 --> 00:23:10,160
Speaker 2: To work top to bottom relative of the leaderboard. Michael

471
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,960
Munchak ninth place finisher, he moves into the top ten.

472
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:15,680
He's in eighth place, eight hundred and seven points, six

473
00:23:15,799 --> 00:23:19,200
cashes this year. Alu Gaza up to fourteenth place with

474
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:23,119
his seven hundred points. He's a regular in our PGTPLO series,

475
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,680
so expect him to come back to the studio later

476
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:27,920
in the year and look to qualify for around million

477
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:31,319
dollar free roll. Ben Lamb has two casha this year already.

478
00:23:32,039 --> 00:23:36,799
This one this runner finished takes him up to seventeenth place,

479
00:23:37,079 --> 00:23:40,559
and you know third place finisher Chung Yang Yang, he's

480
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:45,000
just inside the top forty. So yeah, obviously the biggest

481
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,319
results there to kind of PGT regulars Lou and Ben

482
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,880
in quite a good position to really make a run

483
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:56,359
at it for the rest of the PGT season. Sounds good.

484
00:23:56,759 --> 00:24:08,599
Speaker 1: So I got some breaking news' choice.

485
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 2: We just lost Adam Friedman.

486
00:24:12,279 --> 00:24:14,319
Speaker 1: He will not be winning it for a fourth time,

487
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:20,279
but valiant effort by him finishing in seventh place. There

488
00:24:20,279 --> 00:24:23,200
are six players remaining. We've got Phil Sternheimer up on top,

489
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:27,200
Ryan Hoenig in second, Dario Alioto in third, Dylan Smith fourth,

490
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:31,640
Matthew Vanger, and fifth Brandon Cantu rounds it out in sixth.

491
00:24:31,839 --> 00:24:34,880
Five of those six players are on twenty five K

492
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,400
fantasy team. So we are sweating well, I mean, we're

493
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:40,200
just gonna get crushed in in this one. What are

494
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:44,000
you gonna do? But looks like Sternheimer, your boy, could

495
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:45,119
be in line to get this first brace.

496
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:47,079
Speaker 2: I need something pretty nice for phil Son home today.

497
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:50,720
Oh yeah, what's that? So we came back? What's that?

498
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,000
Came back with I think like sixteen players something. They

499
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:56,640
redrew to two tables. Okay, they took the big table

500
00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:58,160
up here where the two K and elimit is on

501
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:01,039
the feature, and they took tables see where the current

502
00:25:01,279 --> 00:25:06,559
dealer's choices Nick Nick GUGENTI was complaining about the heat.

503
00:25:06,759 --> 00:25:11,039
Didn't like it. All right, hold on, I know what

504
00:25:11,079 --> 00:25:12,759
you're gonna say, but let me finish myself.

505
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:15,079
Speaker 1: Finish your story, and then we're gonna get into this nonset.

506
00:25:15,279 --> 00:25:17,359
Speaker 2: They hadn't started dealing and I sat up there and

507
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:18,839
I was like, yeah, this is pretty well, Like do

508
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:20,799
you why do we do we have to be up here?

509
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,039
And the falls asked me. I was like, no, you

510
00:25:23,039 --> 00:25:25,319
guys can see wherever you want, so can we move back? Sure?

511
00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,519
At the same time, Phil was adjusting his seat. He

512
00:25:28,559 --> 00:25:31,640
had a nice fresh I don't know, little ice latte

513
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:35,319
sitting on his table. Knocked it down, went splattering all

514
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:36,319
over the stage.

515
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,920
Speaker 1: You know the other day his drink got knocked over

516
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:43,240
by Mickey duek drinks. He put him on the floor

517
00:25:43,279 --> 00:25:45,920
next to his does he got up and kicked one

518
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,200
over and then and then and then blamed it on

519
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:49,319
like a photographer.

520
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:52,319
Speaker 2: So they moved back and I said, you know, we

521
00:25:52,559 --> 00:25:54,160
didn't have much with the cars are in the air

522
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:56,559
on the stream, we were pretty relaxed, said philty woman,

523
00:25:56,599 --> 00:26:01,359
to go get you another one at that, Really, that'd

524
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:03,160
be awesome. I was like, yeah, whatever, it's a two

525
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:06,119
minute drive to the next stop box. Don't really take

526
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:08,319
much out of my day. He's okay, you guys, can

527
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,880
I order? Can I order you something? I was like, actually,

528
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:12,680
just have a guy, I just go on. I need one,

529
00:26:12,799 --> 00:26:15,119
but I'll get more if you want to guess one

530
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:17,920
for for Nick. He wanted a trend of cold brew.

531
00:26:18,079 --> 00:26:20,480
It's kind of your type of drink. Nick who I

532
00:26:20,519 --> 00:26:24,039
picked up Nick Giante, the guy who you're going to

533
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:25,960
have a follow up. So when I got there, coffee

534
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:29,079
brought it back a couple of minutes later. One that's

535
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:31,200
when I called you and you were working out because

536
00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:31,640
I used.

537
00:26:31,519 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 1: To got me coffee. We put in the fridge, like

538
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,319
we're good. You look come on.

539
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:41,119
Speaker 2: For me. You were coming here for three hours, so

540
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:43,680
I'm not gonna you could have handled yourself anyway. Got

541
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:48,079
here a drink unbelievable, and I think I think that

542
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:49,880
drink is going to power him to this bracelet. I

543
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:53,000
think I should he should give me his bracelet when

544
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,000
he wins, because it's the the ice coffee I went,

545
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,039
or the ice latte went and got for him. At

546
00:26:58,079 --> 00:26:59,559
one o'clock today.

547
00:26:59,319 --> 00:27:02,319
Speaker 1: So you and I undered over to Paris. Yes, today

548
00:27:02,599 --> 00:27:05,079
and we're checking out the twenty five K six Max.

549
00:27:05,079 --> 00:27:07,599
We're checking out the fifteen hundred dollars Badugie, both of

550
00:27:07,599 --> 00:27:11,000
which we'll talk about in a few minutes. But we

551
00:27:11,039 --> 00:27:14,799
stumble upon a table that has both David Baker's Odib

552
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:19,680
and bakes. Right, he was sitting at that table. Nick

553
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,240
Wa genty was also, he was at that table at

554
00:27:22,279 --> 00:27:26,240
that time. Now Odib immediately puts his hoodie like over

555
00:27:26,279 --> 00:27:29,079
his head. You know, he's just getting to the table.

556
00:27:29,319 --> 00:27:32,240
Nick Wa genty honestly looks like he's back in Ohio.

557
00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:35,160
He's got a like two hoodies on. I think one

558
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,880
pulled way over his head. So he's he's complaining over

559
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,279
there that he's too cold. He's complaining over here that

560
00:27:40,319 --> 00:27:43,119
he's too hot. You just can't please this guy. Now

561
00:27:43,559 --> 00:27:48,119
are There are a handful of tables around the Horseshoe

562
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,960
and around Paris where there is event like pretty much

563
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:54,359
directly above them. If you guys watched Daniel Legrandu's vlog,

564
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:57,319
his recent vlaw, he's on one of those tables. It's

565
00:27:57,319 --> 00:27:59,039
actually it's on the other side of the room. He

566
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:01,559
was in the dealersh cho and he had his he

567
00:28:01,599 --> 00:28:04,720
had his hoodie pulled over. He was holding his holding

568
00:28:04,759 --> 00:28:07,200
it tight in the front. He's like, this draft, this draft.

569
00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,599
Look look at the little stanchion rope. Look at it

570
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:11,599
is blowing in the wind. So there are a few.

571
00:28:11,759 --> 00:28:14,359
I love those tables personally. I like when it's freezing

572
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,960
cold in here, you know, I want I want Amazon

573
00:28:17,039 --> 00:28:19,640
room temperatures that were at the Rio. You know you

574
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,240
gotta wear a sweatshirt for sure. I like when it's cold.

575
00:28:22,279 --> 00:28:25,880
I would rather be cold than hot. That that's just me.

576
00:28:26,319 --> 00:28:28,799
So anyway, you should tell the.

577
00:28:28,799 --> 00:28:31,200
Speaker 2: Other side, sorry, from that, what you should tell the

578
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:32,440
athamar side story.

579
00:28:32,799 --> 00:28:35,200
Speaker 1: No, we're not gonna tell the sides. We're not. We're

580
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,240
gonna skip that one. So the ten k deal shows

581
00:28:37,279 --> 00:28:40,440
down to six again. We'll we'll wrap that one up

582
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:42,319
on what Friday?

583
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:44,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think, Look, we got four more hours of

584
00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:47,440
play today. I don't he just lost Brandon Cantu. I

585
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:48,920
still don't think it's going to get there. I bay

586
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:52,319
you the bag three players. I've come back tomorrow one o'clock.

587
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:56,279
Finished that off. Hopefully it's Phil Sternheim and winning. He's

588
00:28:56,839 --> 00:28:57,880
w s O. P. Brasle.

589
00:28:58,519 --> 00:29:02,960
Speaker 1: Okay, well there is three fifty four K for the winner. Sternheimer,

590
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:07,160
I think, I think among anyone who doesn't have a bracelet,

591
00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:09,759
he is up there in terms of like he wants

592
00:29:09,799 --> 00:29:13,720
one so bad, right, you know, and especially in this game,

593
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:17,400
this format, you know, dealer's choice. He's a huge, huge

594
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,079
mixed game guy. He absolutely loves it. He worked closely

595
00:29:20,119 --> 00:29:22,960
with you on the Super High roller Bowl mixed game tournament,

596
00:29:23,039 --> 00:29:25,400
like you know, that was his baby. So if he's

597
00:29:25,440 --> 00:29:27,400
able to go on and win this, you know, I

598
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:31,960
think that that would just be absolutely freaking incredible. We

599
00:29:32,039 --> 00:29:35,559
got the two K playing down as well. Where's that

600
00:29:35,599 --> 00:29:38,200
one at? Well, that one's on the main stage first. Yeah,

601
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:43,559
and we got Humesh Babu Sukumar I probably put that

602
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:47,079
last name leading the way. With five players remain Scott

603
00:29:47,079 --> 00:29:51,920
Bowman in second, Dusty Smith in third, Benjamin Williams and fourth,

604
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:56,359
and then Kwan Jao is in fifth place. These guys

605
00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:00,400
are guaranteed guys Angal guaranteed one hundred and thirteen thousand

606
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:03,279
dollars four hundred and thirty six thousand dollars up top

607
00:30:03,319 --> 00:30:06,720
for the winner. They're huge, huge field in this two

608
00:30:06,799 --> 00:30:11,240
K possibility. On another one we had we had a

609
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,960
third place finished yesterday, and we had a shot here

610
00:30:14,039 --> 00:30:16,000
to get another one in an open event. Of course,

611
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:20,880
sixteen and ninety two entries in this tournament. Not sure

612
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,480
if they're going to finish tonight. They're down there. It's

613
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,960
ten forty five pm, so we'll see. Might be one

614
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:30,920
of those bag with three players type of ordeals that happens,

615
00:30:31,079 --> 00:30:34,119
and then you know, if it doesn't finish, you know,

616
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:35,920
either way, we'll just have to wrap it up on

617
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:38,359
the next episode. But I guess maybe there's a chance

618
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:42,200
something crazy happens and we get a little breaking news

619
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:48,880
here on the show right now, the fifteen hundred dollars shootout. Now,

620
00:30:49,599 --> 00:30:52,559
so this is on to the final day, correct, So

621
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:56,079
how is this working? Because we're playing to stream this

622
00:30:56,519 --> 00:30:58,960
on Friday.

623
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:01,319
Speaker 2: Right, correct? So how is this? It's just a normal

624
00:31:01,319 --> 00:31:03,880
tournament now, just a fifteen play tournament. I thought they

625
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,240
might be like two teams. Yeah, no, they didn't do

626
00:31:06,319 --> 00:31:08,559
that last year, so this year it's makes sense. Okay,

627
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,640
fifteen play a tournament. They'll play down obviously to firstly

628
00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:16,480
one table and then modified shootout modified shootout, correct, And yeah,

629
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,799
we'll probably pick them up seven or eight handed about

630
00:31:19,839 --> 00:31:23,359
four o'clock local time stream, probably targeting that five PM

631
00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:26,279
that normal window for us. That is the current plan

632
00:31:26,359 --> 00:31:28,119
with this one. You know, they'll be pretty deep to

633
00:31:28,119 --> 00:31:32,240
start obviously, and entries were in this tournament a lot.

634
00:31:32,559 --> 00:31:35,680
I feel like twelve ninety nine. But isn't that is

635
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,119
that round tables were nine handed someone eight handed because

636
00:31:38,119 --> 00:31:39,759
of the double Yeah, but I feel that double flight.

637
00:31:40,559 --> 00:31:43,720
Speaker 1: I want to say, didn't this used to get a

638
00:31:43,759 --> 00:31:46,799
thousand players with a single flight, so now you have

639
00:31:46,839 --> 00:31:48,559
two flights and only gets twelve ninety ninety.

640
00:31:48,599 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, but the issue with the single flight is that

641
00:31:50,799 --> 00:31:53,880
once some you know, you kind of anyone playing at

642
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:58,160
the next like the the evening flight allows people that

643
00:31:58,279 --> 00:32:01,039
playing another event on a date to Boston then getting

644
00:32:01,079 --> 00:32:03,960
to it well before they couldn't. So yeah, the individual

645
00:32:04,039 --> 00:32:07,599
flights are slightly small, law, but combined field size end

646
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,960
up being bigger. Does that make sense? Yeah, yeah, I

647
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:12,720
guess so. I think this fore that's way better than

648
00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:13,640
I like.

649
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:15,279
Speaker 1: I like the format for sure. I would almost say

650
00:32:15,359 --> 00:32:17,079
I think we discussed we could gram three flights.

651
00:32:17,079 --> 00:32:19,440
Speaker 2: We can do you know, you do four flights?

652
00:32:19,519 --> 00:32:21,759
Speaker 1: You could make this gouts go down to it. All

653
00:32:22,559 --> 00:32:27,839
notables not puncery. Michael Rosito all punched their tickets through

654
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:32,240
to the final day. Duff Sharette is also going on

655
00:32:32,359 --> 00:32:34,039
through Cred Golbert.

656
00:32:34,799 --> 00:32:37,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, is that the same? Do we think that's the same.

657
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:40,039
Speaker 1: I think I would assume, so you have to so right, So, yeah,

658
00:32:40,039 --> 00:32:43,079
they're all through to the final round. As to mention,

659
00:32:43,119 --> 00:32:45,319
they're going to come back, they're going to play a

660
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:47,960
real tournament now and they're going to try and get

661
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,960

688
00:34:07,039 --> 00:34:11,920
out today True Classic Tas dot Com. The other events

689
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:15,400
that are happening around the WSOP, we got the Colossus

690
00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:20,280
plane Day one B three three hundred and nine entries

691
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,800
on this second starting flight, second of four starting flights. Now,

692
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:27,280
I did see a little discrepancy on Day one A.

693
00:34:27,599 --> 00:34:29,880
I saw on Poker News that they had in the

694
00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:32,400
recap that it was like there was three thousand, three

695
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:35,159
hundred and seventy nine on Day one A. But then

696
00:34:35,199 --> 00:34:37,519
I saw on the app that it was two thy

697
00:34:37,639 --> 00:34:41,119
seven hundred and seventy three. And immediately I thought, because

698
00:34:41,159 --> 00:34:42,920
I was looking at Poker News, and I said, well,

699
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:44,599
that's weird that one B is less than one A.

700
00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:46,559
That can't be right, Yeah, And then I looked in

701
00:34:46,599 --> 00:34:47,960
the app and it gave me a different number. So

702
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:49,480
I don't know which number is correct for one A

703
00:34:49,679 --> 00:34:52,039
yet I would assume it's two seven seventy.

704
00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:53,800
Speaker 2: Three one because it's the app too.

705
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:56,880
Speaker 1: Because it's smaller than one B, I thought we would

706
00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:59,079
get a little bit of a bigger jump for one

707
00:34:59,119 --> 00:35:02,320
B up to like four K, right, going only two

708
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,719
seven seven three up to three three oh nine, I

709
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,280
thought it would be a little bit more right, you know,

710
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,960
hit thirty eight hundred four k something like that. I

711
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:14,039
still think Friday and Saturday are going to be absolutely

712
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:17,719
you know, wall to wall jam packed in this place.

713
00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:22,679
But you know, still so that's still to come. We

714
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:24,519
won't touch too much on that. You know, it doesn't

715
00:35:24,519 --> 00:35:27,280
really get serious till day two. In the Colosses. And

716
00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:30,159
remember that the Colosses this year five hundred dollars buy

717
00:35:30,199 --> 00:35:32,159
in as opposed to the four hundred dollars buy in.

718
00:35:32,199 --> 00:35:35,599
So the other thing shout out to our buddy Matt Clark,

719
00:35:35,639 --> 00:35:37,840
who pointed out today and we're not fact checking this,

720
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:39,519
so we're just going to roll with it. But it's

721
00:35:39,519 --> 00:35:42,440
the tenth anniversary of the Colossus Tournament, which is which

722
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:44,079
is the OG that's.

723
00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:47,920
Speaker 2: The OG Motion Show Tournament. Chaotic Kill.

724
00:35:48,519 --> 00:35:51,039
Speaker 1: I mean, it's awesome, right, but remember when this first

725
00:35:51,119 --> 00:35:52,719
happened and it was like, what is this thing? And

726
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:56,039
I just remember I remember the pavilion room at Rio

727
00:35:56,239 --> 00:36:01,960
just being slammed, absolutely the lamped So, you know, shout

728
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:04,159
out to the Colossus because it's one it's one of

729
00:36:04,159 --> 00:36:07,960
my favorite tournaments every single summer. I am bummed that

730
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:11,880
I can't play it this year. And yeah, I always

731
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:14,599
am like, where's the classes? I want to play it? Gladiators.

732
00:36:14,639 --> 00:36:17,000
I'm just like, okay, I can't. I can't with the Gladiators.

733
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:21,679
I just I've tried. I'm ultrue. I mean, it's just

734
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:25,400
I mean, maybe it'll be different this year because you know,

735
00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:28,440
we haven't heard anything about ten handed play, but every

736
00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:31,239
time in the Gladiators you're playing ten handed. And the

737
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:33,519
worst part about when you play ten handed in that

738
00:36:33,599 --> 00:36:37,000
tournament in the past, even when they're breaking tables, you're

739
00:36:37,079 --> 00:36:39,480
still playing ten handed. It's like, why can't you just

740
00:36:39,599 --> 00:36:43,000
break tables and make it nine handed? Like why can't

741
00:36:43,039 --> 00:36:45,360
we just do this? You know, but they keep you

742
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:47,719
ten handed the whole way, and it's just it's out

743
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:52,559
of control. Moving on fifteen hundred dollars PL eight, Calvin

744
00:36:52,599 --> 00:36:56,599
Anderson is cruising over there. We did get a cash

745
00:36:56,880 --> 00:37:01,440
out of Nico Milgram for our five K fantasy team,

746
00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:03,480
but he is since out. I think he busted in

747
00:37:03,639 --> 00:37:07,079
fifty second place something like that. Around there somewhere they

748
00:37:07,079 --> 00:37:10,079
are down to nineteen players from eleven hundred and seventy

749
00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:13,400
six two hundred and forty eight thousand dollars up top.

750
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:16,800
I mentioned Calvin Anderson having the lead, Chris Vich is

751
00:37:17,039 --> 00:37:20,039
second in chips. Justin Liberto is doing well. Bryce Jockey

752
00:37:20,519 --> 00:37:23,880
is also doing well. So a nice field over there.

753
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,559
Andres Korn he was on our twenty five K team

754
00:37:26,639 --> 00:37:30,719
last year, andres Man like, what the heck, what the heck,

755
00:37:32,119 --> 00:37:36,039
what the heck. Marco Johnson also in there as well,

756
00:37:36,119 --> 00:37:38,599
so we'll keep our eyes on that as it plays

757
00:37:38,599 --> 00:37:42,000
out to a winner. And then the twenty five K

758
00:37:42,159 --> 00:37:45,840
six Max Nolan mad hold them high Roller, the good

759
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:48,599
old Big Daddy I love this tournament. I was walking

760
00:37:48,639 --> 00:37:53,280
the field today over there at Paris. It seemed incredibly tough. Now,

761
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:56,280
of course it should be tough, it's a twenty five

762
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,480
K six max. But I just felt like in the

763
00:37:59,519 --> 00:38:03,800
past there were some soft spots, you know, this one,

764
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:07,320
I just I don't know, I don't feel like there

765
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,280
were any. So, I mean there was a few, of course,

766
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:10,920
but still I thought like this was I was like,

767
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:14,320
this is this tournament is ungodly hard. So you know,

768
00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:17,000
we'll see how things go. Of course, but they wrapped

769
00:38:17,079 --> 00:38:19,760
up day one a early. You talked to Chino while

770
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:21,719
we were out there, and she knows, like Sheino's asking you,

771
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:23,559
like you're in charge of the tournament structures. He's like,

772
00:38:23,599 --> 00:38:25,960
what how come it says wrong playing eight levels today?

773
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,199
Because this is what they do in these tournaments now.

774
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:29,960
They play them eight levels so that they can have

775
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:31,639
the registry. They have a short day one, then they

776
00:38:31,679 --> 00:38:33,599
have the registration carry through for the first level or

777
00:38:33,639 --> 00:38:34,440
two on day two.

778
00:38:34,679 --> 00:38:36,159
Speaker 2: That's what they do in the high rollers.

779
00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,800
Speaker 1: So Gino must be new here obviously because this has

780
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:41,679
been a thing. It's not like this is new.

781
00:38:42,039 --> 00:38:44,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't I don't love it. I would rather

782
00:38:44,639 --> 00:38:47,400
than play, you know, playing another level of two levels

783
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,079
on day one means you know, for WSFA, another rebuy,

784
00:38:50,159 --> 00:38:53,559
another re entry, you know, allows some molar people to

785
00:38:53,559 --> 00:38:56,239
get in. Potentially, I would have. You'd obviously have to

786
00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:58,320
tweak the structure a little bit so you're not too

787
00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:00,800
shallow if you do the max light on day two.

788
00:39:01,199 --> 00:39:03,320
But yeah, it just seems silly to just you know,

789
00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:05,519
mid day at nine pm and be done. It's a

790
00:39:05,519 --> 00:39:07,559
bit of a short day, especially when most of the

791
00:39:07,559 --> 00:39:09,840
other events, you know, you hit at two am.

792
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:14,119
Speaker 1: What the levels are an hour the Yeah, I think that. Yeah,

793
00:39:14,159 --> 00:39:16,960
so it's not like you're playing until like twelve twelve midnight.

794
00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:19,280
You know, you're playing until like ten, ten thirty something

795
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:21,599
like that. So it's not that bad. Michael got a

796
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:24,599
three time WSOP Gold Brace. The winner finished at the

797
00:39:24,639 --> 00:39:27,400
top of the counts to finish day one seventy two

798
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:31,840
players and bagged up for day two. Aramaganion second in chips,

799
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:35,800
Nick Schulman third in chips, Jared Blessnik fifth and chips,

800
00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:39,920
Seth Davies Team DBMD is in sixth and chips, and

801
00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:44,400
we also have mister short Stack himself seventy second place

802
00:39:44,519 --> 00:39:47,280
on the leaderboard. Our one hundred and forty one dollars

803
00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:51,599
player bagging crumbs. What are the blinds for tomorrow, Jeremy

804
00:39:51,679 --> 00:39:55,000
Jeffrey Dausmans put sixty five k in the bag for you.

805
00:39:55,079 --> 00:39:58,519
Speaker 2: It's five big bonds. I'm going with five big bonds

806
00:39:58,519 --> 00:40:02,199
a SI guy, so six twelve, six and a half bigs?

807
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:04,639
Speaker 1: Yes, Oh yeah, baby, let's go spin it up, baby.

808
00:40:04,679 --> 00:40:06,519
I mean, he can still if he hasn't used his reentry,

809
00:40:06,519 --> 00:40:09,000
he can use his reentry. It does have one re

810
00:40:09,199 --> 00:40:13,119
entry in this tournament. I was reading on Poker News

811
00:40:13,159 --> 00:40:18,360
and per they're reporting Daniel Legrandu Eric Sidel, which I

812
00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:21,079
believe they spelled Eric saidel wrong unless I spelled it wrong.

813
00:40:21,079 --> 00:40:25,760
But Dan Smith, Archer, Martirosi and Steven Chidwick and Adrian

814
00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:29,440
Matteos all busted and used their re entry.

815
00:40:30,639 --> 00:40:33,920
Speaker 2: Next wait on any one re entry. That's what it

816
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:35,320
said in the Poker News reporting.

817
00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:38,280
Speaker 1: Oh okay, And it's feels like too much of a

818
00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:40,119
hassle to try and go to the WSP website and

819
00:40:40,159 --> 00:40:44,000
look up the structure. So you know, it's just I

820
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:46,039
can only do so much, right, I can only do

821
00:40:46,039 --> 00:40:48,039
so much. Producer rich Is like, you guys got a

822
00:40:48,039 --> 00:40:50,000
podcast early, I'm trying to rush through things.

823
00:40:50,039 --> 00:40:52,639
Speaker 2: You're right, one re entry, Yeah, okay.

824
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:56,159
Speaker 1: Okay, So so yeah, if that's true, I mean, that's

825
00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:59,119
that's a pretty good list of names that's no longer

826
00:40:59,119 --> 00:41:00,920
going to be in this tournament, of course, chief among

827
00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:04,320
them d Naggs. So we'll have to hop into the

828
00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:07,280
next one, the fifteen hundred. Oh and also, this event

829
00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:09,079
had two hundred and seventy two entries last year, so

830
00:41:09,159 --> 00:41:11,480
already meeting last year's total on day one. They're gonna

831
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:13,079
get it. They're gonna get over three hundred, for sure.

832
00:41:13,199 --> 00:41:14,719
They're gonna get all the people that didn't use their

833
00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:16,679
re entry. Maybe they busted late in the night, they're

834
00:41:16,679 --> 00:41:18,199
just like, I'm just gonna go home, not gonna play

835
00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:19,719
for another forty five minutes or whatever.

836
00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:20,920
Speaker 2: I'll come back tomorrow.

837
00:41:21,039 --> 00:41:23,039
Speaker 1: You're gonna get a bunch of people that are just

838
00:41:23,079 --> 00:41:25,800
buying in fresh tomorrow. Then you're gonna get people like

839
00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:29,360
I mean, hope, I mean not hopefully, but Jeremy Osmas,

840
00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:30,920
let's say he busts, he didn't use his re entry.

841
00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:32,639
He's like, all right, I'm gonna fire it right back in.

842
00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:36,000
So yeah, they're gonna soar up over three hundred, so massive,

843
00:41:36,119 --> 00:41:39,960
massive turnout there. Shout out to the word massive. You

844
00:41:40,039 --> 00:41:42,280
always love that bit, don't you. It's good to most

845
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:45,199
overused word in poker, so I'm gonna overuse it. Fifteen

846
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:48,440
hundred dollars bud Doogie turned out to be the largest

847
00:41:48,679 --> 00:41:50,960
the Doogie tournament in the history of poker.

848
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:54,440
Speaker 2: Can you believe it? It's been like for tournament. That's

849
00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:56,199
not the greatest thing, got it?

850
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:59,360
Speaker 1: You gotta set the records, baby, five hundred and thirty

851
00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:02,440
four and there were four hundred and eighty seven last year.

852
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:06,159
So that's a nice little uptex for the badugie crowd,

853
00:42:06,199 --> 00:42:08,519
for the mixed game crowd. Top eighty one are going

854
00:42:08,599 --> 00:42:11,159
to pay one hundred and thirty eight thousand dollars up top.

855
00:42:11,199 --> 00:42:12,840
Do you have anyone who's still in that tournament?

856
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:16,679
Speaker 2: George Wolf, Chip Lad, Niko Milgram top ten and Chips Oh,

857
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:22,320
Nico Big Ones so he's doing well. Just the man,

858
00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:25,159
let's go Eerie d NDE guy, he's up in the

859
00:42:25,159 --> 00:42:30,119
top ten. Ramos. Yeah, a whole bunch of mixed game

860
00:42:30,559 --> 00:42:34,320
legends shock playing this one. So a good fun event.

861
00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:36,400
You know, we we were over there for a little while,

862
00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:38,880
checking it out, seeing all the faces in the event.

863
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:43,079
So definitely what I want to play one day. Yeah,

864
00:42:43,199 --> 00:42:44,960
I don't know. I'm kind of over the mixed games.

865
00:42:45,119 --> 00:42:47,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I think, I think, I mean for now,

866
00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:50,039
that'll probably change in a year, who knows, But I

867
00:42:50,039 --> 00:42:52,800
don't know. I feel like the Nolan stuff is so

868
00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:55,920
much better, and I'm a sucker for the just the

869
00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:58,039
bigger prize pools. Yeah, I'm a sucker for the bigger

870
00:42:58,079 --> 00:43:00,800
prize pools. I'm succer for the the fact that I

871
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:03,639
can go all in. I mean that sounds stupid, I know,

872
00:43:03,679 --> 00:43:07,039
but I can literally say I'm all in. Yeah, I

873
00:43:07,079 --> 00:43:10,920
know he can't always do it, so yeah, I don't know.

874
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:12,639
I'm just a sucker for that sort of stuff. I

875
00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:15,239
like the I like to see all the flashing lights,

876
00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:16,960
you know, the big like up in this two K,

877
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,159
four hundred and thirty six thousand dollars first place priorly

878
00:43:19,199 --> 00:43:21,920
that sort of stuff. So you know, I mean, maybe

879
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:25,599
someday I'll swing back to the mixed game ways, but

880
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:29,760
for now loving the no limits stuff for sure. I

881
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:33,840
definitely want to start playing some more Plo and Polo eight.

882
00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:37,119
I mean you see some stuff in this PLO eight

883
00:43:37,199 --> 00:43:39,559
tournament that's like, what in the f are people do?

884
00:43:40,039 --> 00:43:42,079
I mean, you see stuff in these PLO tournaments that

885
00:43:42,159 --> 00:43:43,960
are like I don't see stuff in every tournament that

886
00:43:44,039 --> 00:43:46,039
makes That is very true, That is very true. But

887
00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:51,880
you know, I mean, yeah, it's funny the I feel

888
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:55,000
like in the polo tournaments, both PLO and PLO eight,

889
00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:59,480
the really good players in those fields, they just have

890
00:43:59,679 --> 00:44:04,239
such a control over things, like way more so than

891
00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:07,880
nolamit hold them And it's it's funny because everyone thinks

892
00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:10,840
PLO is this crazy action game, you know, when it

893
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:13,639
comes to PLO tournaments, I think it's a lot more

894
00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:17,639
controlled than people think, at least when it comes to

895
00:44:17,679 --> 00:44:19,679
like the best players. You know, they're not just like

896
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:22,800
spazing and going outs. I mean, you can't play that

897
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:24,760
if you want to, right, you can really really press

898
00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:28,599
your edges. But you know, I think that there's you

899
00:44:28,639 --> 00:44:31,400
know a lot of kind of delicate maneuvering that people

900
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:34,800
wouldn't expect when they see oh, fifte do PLO Like,

901
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:37,519
you know, do they have a fifteen dollar PLO six max?

902
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:39,880
Speaker 2: Do they have that? They should? I may have had

903
00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:41,400
it before I don't know. If they have it, that.

904
00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:44,920
Speaker 1: Would be that would be a ridiculous tournament. So yeah,

905
00:44:45,079 --> 00:44:47,159
I don't think. I don't think we got anything else.

906
00:44:48,679 --> 00:44:52,400
Unless you got anything else, got a new hat, you

907
00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:54,519
did get a new hat. ESPN Poker Club, I don't.

908
00:44:54,679 --> 00:44:57,360
I don't know what the ESPN Poker Club is. ESPN

909
00:44:57,559 --> 00:45:01,440
Poker Club, did you did you hit up Andrew Feldman.

910
00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:05,280
Speaker 2: Then there's a new ESPN Pop Club November twenty three.

911
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:09,719
Speaker 1: Twenty ten, and it's powered by PokerStars dot net. At

912
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:13,519
least it was with more games, more players, and more

913
00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:18,400
awesome prizes. And then there's a there's the next post

914
00:45:18,599 --> 00:45:22,400
on my searches from Reddit. Yeah, what happened to ESPN

915
00:45:22,480 --> 00:45:23,119
Poker Club?

916
00:45:25,079 --> 00:45:26,880
Speaker 2: I listed all the hats on eBay and that was

917
00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:29,440
the end of it. I guess, I mean, I guess.

918
00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:31,679
So I'm going to read this.

919
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:34,639
Speaker 1: It says one of my close friends and I played

920
00:45:34,679 --> 00:45:37,639
poker all the time at his house. This is from

921
00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:42,519
three years ago. Okay, he has this set from the

922
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:45,000
ESPN Poker Club that looks really nice and I was

923
00:45:45,079 --> 00:45:48,480
thinking about buying my own. Everywhere I look, it's like

924
00:45:48,599 --> 00:45:52,239
it never existed. There's almost no trace of this set.

925
00:45:52,559 --> 00:45:55,719
So what exactly happened to the ESPN Poker Club And

926
00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:59,920
why can't I find this set interesting?

927
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:03,760
Speaker 2: Uh? I don't know. I thought it was a pretty

928
00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:06,400
cool hat. You know, we we bought like a poker

929
00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:10,239
stuff and I just wanted an ESPN Poker Club hat

930
00:46:10,559 --> 00:46:13,320
added to the collection were today? Yeah, no, of.

931
00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:19,400
Speaker 1: Course I do find this interesting. So I'm on and

932
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:22,039
now I'm on eBay. This is the part of the

933
00:46:22,079 --> 00:46:23,519
podcast that Rich probably hates.

934
00:46:23,679 --> 00:46:25,880
Speaker 2: He just do that. He should mimic your screen. He

935
00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:27,599
should go on eBay and do the same same.

936
00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:31,039
Speaker 1: There's cards, SPM poper Club, there's chipset ESPM Poker Club,

937
00:46:31,079 --> 00:46:33,360
there's a tough one. Look at a hat that's yours. Yeah,

938
00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:35,760
that's that's a pair of hats. I get two hats

939
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:38,079
for the price of one. Wow, you got one hat,

940
00:46:38,079 --> 00:46:39,920
you got ripped off and you didn't even buy one.

941
00:46:40,199 --> 00:46:42,079
You didn't give me a coffee today from Phil Sternheim,

942
00:46:42,119 --> 00:46:44,519
and you didn't buy me a hat. This is absolutely

943
00:46:44,559 --> 00:46:47,960
freaking outrageous with this one. Look at this one. The

944
00:46:48,199 --> 00:46:52,119
ESPN Poker Club. They got a shuffler on here.

945
00:46:54,559 --> 00:46:56,920
Speaker 2: I mean, just crazy. That's a cool stuff from the

946
00:46:56,960 --> 00:46:58,239
old and the two thousands.

947
00:46:58,599 --> 00:47:00,440
Speaker 1: I mean, this is gonna be us and like thirty

948
00:47:00,519 --> 00:47:01,559
years when we list.

949
00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:05,239
Speaker 2: Our sailing crafts so we can get food from Alvason's this.

950
00:47:05,360 --> 00:47:07,639
Speaker 1: Time, I mean yeah, I mean Albertson's probably won't be around,

951
00:47:07,679 --> 00:47:10,320
but sure, why would that Why wouldn't a things come

952
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:10,519
and go?

953
00:47:10,800 --> 00:47:14,039
Speaker 2: You never know, okay, by the biggest grocery store, and.

954
00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:18,639
Speaker 1: I mean there's pretty big. Yeah, I mean they're obviously big,

955
00:47:18,679 --> 00:47:22,000
but I mean you never know. By then we're gonna

956
00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:25,039
have you know, AI robots making us fake meat and

957
00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:27,920
it's gonna be dropped off by drones in our front yard.

958
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:29,440
Speaker 2: Like so a lot of what you just said we

959
00:47:29,559 --> 00:47:30,039
already have.

960
00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:34,360
Speaker 1: It's going to like all be like put together. Are

961
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:35,679

962
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:36,440
your kitchen counter?

963
00:47:36,519 --> 00:47:39,400
Speaker 2: And like it just wouldn't be more like and like

964
00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:41,360
we just get like a needle that just ejects us

965
00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:43,519
with maybe they don't even have to eat anymore.

966
00:47:43,639 --> 00:47:46,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it also in thirty years, like we

967
00:47:46,159 --> 00:47:48,119

968
00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:48,800
killed us all.

969
00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:50,760
