00:00:10,919 --> 00:00:13,599
Speaker 1: Hello, everyone, Welcome back to a new episode of the

2
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:19,199
Poker Go Podcast. My name is Donnie Peters. It is

3
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:22,679
twelve thirty five am. It's another one of those nights

4
00:00:22,679 --> 00:00:25,199
where I was trying to wait for a couple of

5
00:00:25,199 --> 00:00:28,960
these tournaments to end. Doesn't seem like they're ending. We

6
00:00:29,079 --> 00:00:31,079
got a heads up match in the twenty five k

7
00:00:31,199 --> 00:00:34,320
half and half those guys are battling back and forth.

8
00:00:34,439 --> 00:00:37,799
One of them just doubled up again. So we'll see

9
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:40,439
if by time I get to that, if there's a

10
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:42,439
winner in that one, because that's a pretty big event

11
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:45,159
that we can talk about. But if not, we'll talk

12
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:48,799
about the winner on the next episode. But there is

13
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:50,560
some stuff that I do want to hit on from

14
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:55,240
that specific event. But the headliner on this episode we

15
00:00:55,320 --> 00:01:01,640
got Benny Glauser winning the fifty KC. He topped a

16
00:01:01,679 --> 00:01:04,719
field of one hundred and eight entries to win what

17
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:08,879
many consider to be the most prestigious bracelet at the

18
00:01:08,879 --> 00:01:11,280
World Series of Poker, and if it's not considered that,

19
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,519
then it is certainly second to the WASIP Maine event.

20
00:01:14,519 --> 00:01:16,680
I would have the ws main event first, of course,

21
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:18,640
but I know a lot of the top pros out

22
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,719
there they want to win the fifty k PPC. They

23
00:01:21,719 --> 00:01:23,480
probably think that they have a chance to win it

24
00:01:23,519 --> 00:01:26,680
more due to the field size. But you know that's that,

25
00:01:26,719 --> 00:01:31,400
and we're we're gonna hit on Benny Glazer's triumphant victory there.

26
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,120
We got Daniel Legrand who, speaking of the fifty k,

27
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,519
he won that once a couple of years ago. Daniel

28
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:41,760
Legrano coming close to another gold bracelet, will hit on that.

29
00:01:41,799 --> 00:01:44,359
We got Sean Winter, I want to talk about him.

30
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,280
Didn't win anything, but that's kind of the point of

31
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,680
why we're going to be talking about mister Winter. The

32
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:58,000
Ladies Championship event kicked off on Thursday, a record turnout,

33
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:02,480
a record field size in the Ladies Championship, but we

34
00:02:02,519 --> 00:02:05,959
did lose the goat on day one, and then we

35
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:07,879
got a couple winners. We got the one K Super

36
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:11,120
Seniors winner, we got the fifte hundred dollars freeze out winner.

37
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,960
We'll touch on the other stuff that's kind of happening

38
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:18,199
around down on the strip at Horseshoe and Paris. If

50
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:03,879
Benny Glaser take down the fifty K Poker Players Championship.

51
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,960
He tops a field of one hundred and eight entries

52
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:12,599
one hundred and eight of poker's best to win one million,

53
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:17,599
three hundred and forty three thousand dollars, his ninth bracelet

54
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:22,439
nine nine for Benny, and that's nine in eleven years.

55
00:03:22,479 --> 00:03:26,680
His first bracelet win was in twenty fifteen. It's his

56
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:31,080
eighth wasip cash this summer. He came close to getting

57
00:03:31,159 --> 00:03:35,639
number nine a little while ago in the ten K

58
00:03:35,719 --> 00:03:38,680
limitold Heim Championship. Ever so close because he got second

59
00:03:38,719 --> 00:03:41,159
in that event for one hundred and ninety thousand dollars.

60
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,400
As it relates to the fifty K PPC. He did

61
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,840
say after when he was talking to Jeff Platt post

62
00:03:47,919 --> 00:03:51,719
win in his little interview there the little bracelet presentation

63
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,360
that they do that Jeff Platt does. He told Jeff that,

64
00:03:55,439 --> 00:03:57,680
you know, he really wanted to win this one, and

65
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,360
he's come closed a couple of times. Those times that

66
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:04,240
he has come close in the past, first twenty eighteen

67
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,759
when he finished fifth in the event for two hundred

68
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,159
and sixty thousand dollars, and then in twenty twenty two

69
00:04:09,879 --> 00:04:12,280
he took fourth in the event for four hundred and

70
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:16,360
sixty four thousand dollars. An interesting thing is if you

71
00:04:16,439 --> 00:04:21,480
look at post Moneymaker, so Moneymaker won in two thousand

72
00:04:21,519 --> 00:04:25,160
and three, let's not consider that year because once that happened,

73
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,720
that's really what ignited everything. You know, it sparked, It

74
00:04:28,759 --> 00:04:32,199
sparked the incredible growth of poker, THESIP, all that sort

75
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,480
of stuff. So let's start with the two thousand and

76
00:04:34,519 --> 00:04:40,399
four WSP since that year. Guests, who has the most

77
00:04:40,759 --> 00:04:46,360
bracelet wins? Of course, you probably guessed Benny Glaser. No

78
00:04:46,399 --> 00:04:50,279
one has more bracelets starting with the two thousand and

79
00:04:50,319 --> 00:04:56,480
four DOUBSIP than Benny Glauser. He's got nine Helmuth, Shulman, deeb,

80
00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:01,519
Miss Rocky, they've all got eight. And then Rasked Ivy,

81
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:08,519
sever and Anderson, Calvin Anderson, they've got seven. So with

82
00:05:08,639 --> 00:05:11,920
the type of success that Benny has been having, I

83
00:05:11,959 --> 00:05:14,839
think the question now that we have to start asking

84
00:05:15,079 --> 00:05:20,720
is is Benny Glasser the greatest mixed games player in

85
00:05:20,759 --> 00:05:23,759
the modern era? And honestly, you might even say of

86
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,439
all time to be real, but let's just you know,

87
00:05:26,519 --> 00:05:29,120
keep it to the modern era, right Also, you know,

88
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,519
the modern era is my era. It's a little bit

89
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,639
easier for me to speak to than trying to go back,

90
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,800
you know, generations and stuff like that. You got Phil

91
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,439
helm he's still owning the all time bracelet record with seventeen.

92
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,759
Of course, you got Phil Ivy, who was also at this,

93
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,800
at this fifty K final table, he finished in third place.

94
00:05:50,399 --> 00:05:53,040
You know, he's the player that many consider to be

95
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,600
the most naturally gifted, the goat the greatest player of

96
00:05:57,639 --> 00:06:02,920
all time. We want to look at the fifty KPPC specifically,

97
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,639
of course, that's Michael the grind Durmaans Rockies event. You know,

98
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:12,000
he has owned this tournament. He's won it four times. Famously,

99
00:06:12,079 --> 00:06:15,560
he won it the last WSIP in twenty twenty five,

100
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,879
and then he also went on to win the WSP

101
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,319
main event in just an absolutely out of this world happening.

102
00:06:22,639 --> 00:06:26,199
But if we're going to talk strictly about the last

103
00:06:26,319 --> 00:06:28,800
two decades, or slightly more than the last two decades,

104
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,920
because let's again let's take it back to two thousand

105
00:06:31,959 --> 00:06:36,600
and four, the players who came after that year in

106
00:06:36,759 --> 00:06:39,959
two thousand and three, when Chris Moneymaker won and poker

107
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:45,439
then exploded. I'm not sure that there's anyone out there

108
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:49,920
who has built a better WSIP resume than Benny Glauser.

109
00:06:51,439 --> 00:06:53,800
I understand you might be able to argue maybe some

110
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,839
people have, maybe some people maybe Beny hasn't you know,

111
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:01,160
I get it, But Benny one hundred percent, two hundred

112
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,040
percent has to be in the conversation. He just has

113
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:08,879
to be nine bracelets in eleven years. He's done it

114
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,519
in all different types of variants, and he just won

115
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,879
when it comes to mixed games, when it comes to

116
00:07:14,959 --> 00:07:16,920
being the best all around player in the world, this

117
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,439
is the tournament to win the fifty KPPC. So this

118
00:07:20,639 --> 00:07:23,560
isn't just when you look at all that success he's

119
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,160
had at the World series of poker. You know, this

120
00:07:25,319 --> 00:07:30,240
isn't just bracelet number nine, it's bracelet number nine in

121
00:07:30,399 --> 00:07:34,959
eleven years. Again, if you take out all bracelets from

122
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:41,399
two thousand and three and before, Glausar is number one. Okay,

123
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,120
he's ahead of Helmut, He's ahead of Shulman, He's ahead

124
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,160
of deb He's ahead of his Rocky rast Ivy sver Anderson,

125
00:07:47,199 --> 00:07:50,480
you name it. He is ahead. I don't think I

126
00:07:50,519 --> 00:07:53,879
can state how hard it is to win this specific tournament.

127
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,399
You know this. You have to play for five days,

128
00:07:57,759 --> 00:08:00,160
You got to play nine different games. It is a

129
00:08:00,279 --> 00:08:04,959
very long drawn out, player friendly structure. You know, this

130
00:08:05,079 --> 00:08:09,160
isn't just about showing up for two days and just

131
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:14,000
running hot, right like, this is a true test of

132
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,480
a poker tournament. This is, you know, part of its endurance.

133
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:21,319
If if there was ever a tournament that was as

134
00:08:21,399 --> 00:08:24,519
close as it could get to a cash game, it's

135
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:26,959
this one, and it's the WSP min event, right like

136
00:08:27,199 --> 00:08:29,759
those are the two and there's really nothing else that's close.

137
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,320
You know, the field in this one one hundred and

138
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,919
eight of the world's best mixed game specialists. You know,

139
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,320
of course, yes, you have some other players in their blasting.

140
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,799
But everyone's got a lot of game. They're all playing

141
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,080
their ass off. They're putting up fifty K to play

142
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,000
this one. First place is more than one point three

143
00:08:49,159 --> 00:08:54,279
four million dollars when you factor in what Benny's been

144
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:57,679
doing this summer alone. Again, this is his eighth abyssip cash. Like,

145
00:08:57,759 --> 00:08:59,639
it's not like this is like, you know, he just

146
00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,799
got in this tournament. It kind of came out of nowhere.

147
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:04,759
Had in the fact that he's been close in this

148
00:09:04,799 --> 00:09:07,519
event before, add in the fact that he's had eight

149
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:12,000
previous mixed game bracelets, Like this isn't just magic and

150
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:15,279
something that just happened out of thin air. Like Benny's

151
00:09:15,279 --> 00:09:19,200
a freaking crusher. He really is, you know, just whatever

152
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,159
a week or two weeks ago or however long it was,

153
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,120
he almost won the ten k Lemon Holdham Championship. He

154
00:09:23,159 --> 00:09:26,159
finished second there for one hundred and ninety K. I mean,

155
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,639
this is just absolutely crazy. He's been knocking on this

156
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,360
door before. I mentioned the fifth place finish in twenty eighteen,

157
00:09:32,399 --> 00:09:35,240
I mentioned the fourth place finish in twenty twenty two.

158
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:45,840
Nine bracelets in eleven years. That is simply incredible. It really,

159
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:51,240
really really is, and it's nine bracelets in the most

160
00:09:51,279 --> 00:09:57,080
recent eleven years, when I don't think it's any surprise

161
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,440
to say that this is the hardest time to win

162
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:05,879
it poker. Everyone is good, fields are bigger, it's harder

163
00:10:05,919 --> 00:10:09,840
to win. And Benny is just absolutely at the top

164
00:10:09,879 --> 00:10:13,759
of his game. You know. Again, he's ahead of Helmut Shulman.

165
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:18,120
Deep this rocky rast ivy see for Galvin Anderson, Like

166
00:10:18,159 --> 00:10:20,840
that is a six sick list of players right there,

167
00:10:21,159 --> 00:10:23,759
and Benny Glauser is just alone to the top with

168
00:10:23,919 --> 00:10:27,559
nine bracelets since two thousand and four. You know, there

169
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,600
are players that dominate a game, sure, got it. There

170
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,799
are players that dominate an era. Of course, you know,

171
00:10:35,039 --> 00:10:39,679
Benny has basically dominated multiple games, you know, And it's

172
00:10:39,759 --> 00:10:42,120
just it's crazy. Since he won his first bracelet in

173
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:46,679
twenty fifteen, he's averaged nearly a bracelet a year. I mean,

174
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:49,000
that's awesome, I know, I know. You know, obviously there

175
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,120
were some years when he didn't win, some he won

176
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,159
three the one year, Like, I get it. You know,

177
00:10:53,519 --> 00:10:57,000
it's almost like now he's got to be the player

178
00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:02,840
that you have to think has Sorry, maybe not the player,

179
00:11:02,879 --> 00:11:06,080
but he's he's one of the players who has a

180
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,320
great shot at running down Phil Hemp. He has to

181
00:11:09,919 --> 00:11:12,919
if he stays on this pace. You know, if you

182
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,519
just put him at a bracelet a year, okay, the

183
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:17,399
next ten years, he's gonna have ten more. He's gonna

184
00:11:17,399 --> 00:11:19,519
be up to nineteen. Like you know, maybe some years

185
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,240
he doesn't win one, maybe o those years he wins two. Like,

186
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:26,120
I mean, he's certainly good enough. And while he hasn't

187
00:11:26,159 --> 00:11:30,600
won a bracelet in Nolan at hold Him or potlom

188
00:11:30,639 --> 00:11:33,399
and Omaha. Like Ben, he plays all the games, you know,

189
00:11:33,639 --> 00:11:37,679
and yes, certain games might be better. He might say

190
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,480
he's better at that than the big bet stuff, of course,

191
00:11:40,919 --> 00:11:44,320
but he's had plenty of success in big bet stuff, right. Like,

192
00:11:44,399 --> 00:11:46,960
he's a very very good player, and he tries his

193
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:48,799
ass off, which I think matters a lot. You know,

194
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:52,559
I think that's probably you know, Phil Hellmuse's best skill

195
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:54,960
is that he's like never gonna give up ever. You know,

196
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,039
he's always gonna try, try, try. We can all like

197
00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:58,919
you know, poke fun at his game or saying he's

198
00:11:58,919 --> 00:12:00,720
not doing this right or that right or whatever the

199
00:12:00,759 --> 00:12:03,399
heck it is, but like he's always going to try to,

200
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,840
Like his last chip is gone, and Benny's a similar

201
00:12:06,879 --> 00:12:09,039
type of player. He's always going to just bust his

202
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,200
ass and try, try to try, and he cares a lot.

203
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,600
He showed a lot of emotion after he won this tournament.

204
00:12:13,639 --> 00:12:17,000
You know, he got down in kind of a squad.

205
00:12:17,039 --> 00:12:18,399
You know, he didn't really get down to his knees,

206
00:12:18,399 --> 00:12:20,440
but he was down down to his squad. He was,

207
00:12:21,039 --> 00:12:24,080
you know, visibly emotional, tears coming out of his eyes.

208
00:12:24,159 --> 00:12:26,679
Really couldn't he really didn't have enough time to collect

209
00:12:26,759 --> 00:12:30,320
himself before he went up and talked to Jeff Platt,

210
00:12:30,399 --> 00:12:32,200
but he, you know, he did what he could, said

211
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,559
some really good things. And yeah, I mean, I mean,

212
00:12:34,799 --> 00:12:39,200
this guy is just he's becoming one of, if not

213
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:43,120
the defining mixed game legend in poker history. Like he

214
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:46,399
really is. And again he might be the one that

215
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,600
ultimately ends up running down Phil Hammyth. First, He's got

216
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,039
a ways to go. Of course, Helmet is up there

217
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:56,039
with seventeen helmets, of course, still playing. But on this pace,

218
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,879
I mean, Benny is is absolutely dominating. I would say

219
00:12:58,919 --> 00:13:03,000
that the next thing for many just seems naturally that

220
00:13:03,279 --> 00:13:05,519
it's gonna be WSP Player of the Year. Now does

221
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,120
that come this year. Does that come in a future year?

222
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,120
I don't know, but that seems like the one thing

223
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:14,200
he's got to tick off, you know, not that he

224
00:13:14,279 --> 00:13:16,480
has to, you know, I think his his resume already

225
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,960
speaks for itself. Yes, but if he is able to

226
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,559
achieve WSP Player of the Year honors, then that would

227
00:13:22,639 --> 00:13:32,000
just be the absolute ice you Noman King. All right,

228
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:34,080
let's go over and check out this twenty five k

229
00:13:34,279 --> 00:13:38,679
high roller half and half nolanan Holdham slash pot limit. Omaha.

230
00:13:39,879 --> 00:13:42,240
They are still heads up at time of recording. It's

231
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:46,039
twelve forty nine am right now. On Friday, June twenty

232
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:50,080
sixth Elis Parsonen is heads up with another finish player.

233
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:54,200
He finished legend Yuha Helpi. Elis is going for his

234
00:13:54,519 --> 00:14:00,240
second bracelet this summer. We've already had Nioi Kihara to

235
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:04,840
this summer. We've already had Calvin Anderson winning to this summer.

236
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,919
Now Elis could get his second as well. These guys.

237
00:14:08,399 --> 00:14:10,399
Elis did pull away, he had the chipley to start,

238
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,559
he started to pull away. Help me, doubled up a

239
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:14,679
couple of times. And now it looks like, at least

240
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:18,159
according to Poker News again twelve forty nine am that

241
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,120
they are basically dead even so doesn't look like we're

242
00:14:21,279 --> 00:14:23,639
going to get to talk about this one. It does

243
00:14:23,679 --> 00:14:26,879
look like they are about thirty five to forty big

244
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:30,799
Linds deep, So this one could take a while, especially

245
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:34,799
you know, I'm I'm assuming these guys absolutely wanted a ton, right,

246
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:36,720
so they're going to be freaking battling until the end.

247
00:14:37,519 --> 00:14:40,559
But we can still talk about this tournament a little bit,

248
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:43,039
you know, kind of up until this point. You know,

249
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:47,039
at the final table, a couple of notable stories here.

250
00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:52,480
One we had Lou Garza, Sweet Lou ap Lou Garza

251
00:14:52,519 --> 00:14:55,279
making the final table. He ultimately finished in sixth place

252
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:57,840
for two hundred and three thousand dollars. And I bring

253
00:14:57,919 --> 00:15:01,600
up Garza because he won this event last year, almost

254
00:15:01,639 --> 00:15:05,639
went back to back, that's wild. You had Daniel Legrandu

255
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,799
at the final table. He finished in seventh place for jesh,

256
00:15:09,879 --> 00:15:13,759
I have one hundred and fifty three thousand dollars like

257
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:15,919
the player we just talked about winning the fifty k

258
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:20,440
PPC Benny Glasser Daniel m'granno making his eighth cash of

259
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:23,360
the summer's eighth WSP cash of the summer. Of course,

260
00:15:23,759 --> 00:15:26,159
that seventh place finish though, is going to be short

261
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:30,799
of bracelet number eight. This summer for Daniel, he's got

262
00:15:30,799 --> 00:15:34,759
a ninth, a twentieth, in eighth, a thirteenth, a twenty

263
00:15:34,799 --> 00:15:38,200
sixth and eleventh, and eighty fourth and a seventh, so

264
00:15:38,679 --> 00:15:43,440
he's definitely putting together some deep runs. He's still got

265
00:15:43,799 --> 00:15:47,279
thirty events left on the schedule, so I would expect,

266
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:51,000
at a stone minimum, probably two more final tables out

267
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,879
of Daniel. It's just my personal expectation with the kind

268
00:15:53,919 --> 00:15:56,559
of performances that he's been putting out there so far,

269
00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,519
and he's got thirty events left to go win number

270
00:16:00,559 --> 00:16:02,720
eight or maybe even bracelet number nine if he's able

271
00:16:02,759 --> 00:16:04,639
to rip two of these off. But it's not like

272
00:16:04,679 --> 00:16:06,679
he hasn't been kind of knocking out the door, Daniel.

273
00:16:06,679 --> 00:16:08,840
He has certainly been knocking at the door with so

274
00:16:08,879 --> 00:16:11,759
many deep runs like he's been having, and a lot

275
00:16:11,799 --> 00:16:13,519
of those that have been in some some bigger buying

276
00:16:13,559 --> 00:16:16,360
events against some tough competition like this one here, the

277
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,320
twenty five k half and half. So Daniel's getting close.

278
00:16:19,799 --> 00:16:22,440
Did fall short here, yes, but you know, it seems

279
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:25,480
like he's he's getting pretty gone close to getting another

280
00:16:25,519 --> 00:16:28,440
piece of doubsipy goal. And then the other player that

281
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:32,000
I want to mention from this event, third place finisher

282
00:16:32,039 --> 00:16:35,679
taking home five hundred and forty thousand dollars. That is,

283
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:41,320
if there was a poster child for how cruel it

284
00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:44,200
can be in poker tournaments, how hard it can be

285
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:49,519
to win a bracelet. You know, how tough and brutal

286
00:16:49,639 --> 00:16:51,960
the w s AP grind can can be. You know,

287
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,840
when you couple in how often you're out there playing,

288
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:57,600
how close you're getting to ultimately winning, and you know,

289
00:16:57,960 --> 00:16:59,480
in a lot of cases, or at least in this

290
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,799
player's case, is how close you're coming but ultimately not

291
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:06,400
walking away with a title. That's Shawn Winter. I mean,

292
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,400
I mean every single year it seems to come out.

293
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,559
We have this list in poker that everyone talks about.

294
00:17:11,559 --> 00:17:13,880
You know, I've talked about it many times, the best

295
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:18,160
players who still don't have ASP bracelet. Now that list

296
00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:22,480
really should be called the list of notable players who

297
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,599
still don't have ABSP bracelet. Either way, whatever the heck

298
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,880
you want to call it. Shawn Winter. Unfortunately for him,

299
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,319
he's going to remain on that list this time another

300
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,279
deep run he gets third place in this twenty five

301
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:39,279
K half and half, another final table for him. Earlier

302
00:17:39,319 --> 00:17:41,799
this summer he had a fourth place in an event,

303
00:17:41,839 --> 00:17:44,119
he had a third place in an event. Now he's

304
00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:47,559
got this third place. So three top four finishes but

305
00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:51,079
still short of that bracelet. Over the years, he's had

306
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:56,200
six other top five finishes in WSLP events. I mean, you,

307
00:17:57,279 --> 00:18:00,440
on one hand, it's like you kind of hurt for

308
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,759
the guy, right, You're kind of like, man like, can

309
00:18:02,839 --> 00:18:05,400
he just like rip this one off already, Like can

310
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:07,680
he just get this monkey off his back? On the

311
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,039
other side of things, you know, you just really do

312
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:13,200
appreciate how often he's able to put himself in a

313
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:17,359
position of the final five, the final four, the final three,

314
00:18:17,839 --> 00:18:19,960
you know, in these tournaments. And it's not like Sean

315
00:18:20,039 --> 00:18:23,359
Winter's really out there putting in a huge amount of volume.

316
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:25,079
You know, he plays a good amount, yes, but he

317
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:28,519
really focuses on stuff that's five K and higher, ten

318
00:18:28,599 --> 00:18:32,160
K and higher. So one, it's not the highest volume.

319
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,039
So you can't just be like, well, it's just volume,

320
00:18:34,039 --> 00:18:35,759
that's why he's getting so deep all the time. It's

321
00:18:35,799 --> 00:18:39,160
really not that. And then also like the higher the

322
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:43,119
buy in the tougher the competition generally, but Sean Winter,

323
00:18:43,279 --> 00:18:45,279
you know, he's he keeps doing it in terms of

324
00:18:45,319 --> 00:18:47,079
putting himself in position to win one of these, and

325
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,839
he just hasn't yet. We felt this, you know, a

326
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,160
handful of years ago with Jason Kohn for so long

327
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,440
and then he finally got that, he won the twenty

328
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:57,039
five K heads up finally, right. We felt it for

329
00:18:57,079 --> 00:19:00,519
a while with Seth Davies more recently, maybe a player

330
00:19:00,559 --> 00:19:02,559
that that maybe he's not on the level of maybe

331
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:06,000
a Jason Coon in terms of like notoriety or a

332
00:19:06,039 --> 00:19:08,799
Shawn Winter in terms of notoriety. But Josh Reiker just

333
00:19:08,839 --> 00:19:10,839
won the other day, right, you know, that guy's won

334
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:15,559
everything and he finally got it. Darren Elias is another one.

335
00:19:15,599 --> 00:19:17,799
But I think Darren he won an online event, right, So,

336
00:19:18,279 --> 00:19:19,759
I mean, you can say what you want about the

337
00:19:19,799 --> 00:19:22,200
online bracelets, but still got one, right, you know. But

338
00:19:22,279 --> 00:19:23,920
so long, it's like, man, is he ever going to

339
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:25,119
get one? Is he ever going to get when? Is

340
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,680
he ever going to get one? And these players are

341
00:19:27,759 --> 00:19:30,279
able to win everywhere else. You know, Shawn Winter's won

342
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:34,279
everywhere else, but he, for whatever reason, he just can't

343
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:37,559
get the bracelet. He just can't do it, you know.

344
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,480
I think sometimes when we kind of put together these lists,

345
00:19:40,519 --> 00:19:42,079
whether you want to call it the best players a

346
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,160
lot of bracelet or the most notable players with a

347
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:47,960
lot of bracelet, I think some people out there might say, like, well,

348
00:19:47,799 --> 00:19:50,440
what's missing? Why aren't these people closing? Why why can't

349
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:55,119
they finish the job? You know? And honestly, it's probably

350
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:58,200
just variance. We all know how good Shawn Winter is.

351
00:19:58,599 --> 00:20:01,079
He's proven he can get there time and time again

352
00:20:02,039 --> 00:20:05,119
that I know. He is a guy who he's often

353
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:09,599
he's often shorter stacked, you know, and it's kind of

354
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,759
a funny little joke with him that you just can't

355
00:20:11,839 --> 00:20:13,839
kill the guy. But he's also had plenty of big

356
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,839
stacks plenty of times, right, you know. I remember the

357
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:18,880
I think it was the was it the two nd

358
00:20:19,039 --> 00:20:22,079
fifty K final table either last year or a couple

359
00:20:22,079 --> 00:20:23,720
of years ago or whatever, where he got it in

360
00:20:23,759 --> 00:20:26,440
with kings versus queens. I believe it was against Taylor

361
00:20:26,519 --> 00:20:29,599
von Kregenberg and vob Kregenberger hit a queen that was

362
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,839
with for a ton of the chips in play at

363
00:20:31,839 --> 00:20:33,880
the final table. So like stuff like that just just

364
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:38,359
not going Winter's way. But you have to believe that

365
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:42,680
if you just consistently keep putting yourself in these situations

366
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,960
and as it pertains to Winter. Here the final three,

367
00:20:45,079 --> 00:20:49,640
the final four, the final five players in WSP events, like,

368
00:20:49,759 --> 00:20:52,720
eventually the cards are going to cooperate things. You know,

369
00:20:52,759 --> 00:20:56,039
the universe is going to align and he's gonna get

370
00:20:56,519 --> 00:21:00,119
his time in the Winter Circle. The resume for Seann

371
00:21:00,319 --> 00:21:02,880
It already says he's one of the most elite tournament

372
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:06,240
players of his generation and now we are just waiting

373
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,920
on him winning the bracelet. But again it's not going

374
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:11,759
to come in this twenty five K half and half

375
00:21:11,799 --> 00:21:15,880
because third place finished for him five hundred and forty K.

376
00:21:16,039 --> 00:21:17,559
But we're not going to finish this one out or

377
00:21:17,599 --> 00:21:20,519
be able to finish this one out. Here just refreshing

378
00:21:20,519 --> 00:21:23,440
the page again. These guys are separated by only about

379
00:21:24,039 --> 00:21:26,400
five or six big blinds here, Elis Parson and you

380
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:28,799
help you the two fins, So we'll have to touch

381
00:21:28,839 --> 00:21:32,240
on that one on the next episode. In the one

382
00:21:32,319 --> 00:21:38,799
K Ladies Championship, record turnout in this event, I mean,

383
00:21:38,839 --> 00:21:42,319
what a freaking showing over the Dobyssipe Ladies Championship fourteen

384
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:48,160
hundred and seventy five entries. That makes it the largest

385
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:53,160
ever Ladies championship in do Bissip history, easily topping last

386
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:57,200
year's record field of thirteen hundred and sixty eight. So

387
00:21:57,279 --> 00:22:00,400
more than one hundred entries better, almost two hundred thousand

388
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:04,039
dollars will be going to the winner in this event.

389
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:08,440
The top two hundred and twenty two places will pay out.

390
00:22:08,559 --> 00:22:12,000
I don't think they are in the money just yet.

391
00:22:12,079 --> 00:22:14,599
It looks like they're about one hundred, one hundred and

392
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:19,079
ten places short of the money. So day two they'll

393
00:22:19,079 --> 00:22:22,240
be getting in the money on this one. Shina Okamoto,

394
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:27,079
the goat aka Shina Okagoto, she busted today, so she's

395
00:22:27,079 --> 00:22:28,799
not going to be seeing We're not going to be

396
00:22:28,799 --> 00:22:31,599
seeing a three peet from her. Remember it's not only

397
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:33,680
just the fact that she's won it the last two years,

398
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:36,359
which is just absolutely ridiculous. But then back in twenty

399
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,200
twenty three she finished second. So twenty twenty three, she

400
00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:43,359
gets second, then she gets first, then she gets first again. Unfortunately,

401
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,680
we're not going to see her her winning again, you know.

402
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:48,440
But still a long way to go for this one,

403
00:22:48,519 --> 00:22:51,079
I believe, if I remember correctly, for what I saw

404
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:55,440
on the WSP s streaming today because they were showing

405
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,559
the fifty KPBC when they showed at the end what

406
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,599
was coming up. I think it's three straight days of

407
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,359
this Ladies Championship, Day two, Day three, and then the

408
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:08,440
final table. If these chip guns are correct, it looks

409
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:12,519
like we got some big stacks for Angela Jordanson, Jessica Tussel,

410
00:23:12,599 --> 00:23:15,119
who I think won this event before. Yeah, she won

411
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,160
this event before, Lexi, Gavin Mather, she's coming off a

412
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:23,000
recent final table. Marshall Wolac is in there, so yeah,

413
00:23:23,039 --> 00:23:25,039
I mean there's obviously a lot of good players left,

414
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,000
you know. I said there's a little bit over three

415
00:23:27,079 --> 00:23:30,839
hundred players remaining in this field. And again, this is

416
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:36,160
a record turnout for the WSP Ladies Championship. And we'll

417
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,680
pit back up on this one on the next episode

418
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,400
as well. A lot to go from this tournament, and

419
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,559
definitely tune in to watch this one as we watch

420
00:23:43,599 --> 00:23:53,640
it play out over these next couple of days. The

421
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:57,160
one K Super Seniors has come to an end. Lionel

422
00:23:57,279 --> 00:24:01,680
Barricano tops thirty three hundred and twenty three entries to

423
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:05,039
win his first bracelet. He also gets three hundred and

424
00:24:05,079 --> 00:24:10,119
fifty five dimes. He denied Kevin Song a second w

425
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:14,400
Sop bracelet. Nancy Bernbaum made the final table. She finished

426
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,480
fifth for a little bit over one hundred k. Alexander

427
00:24:17,519 --> 00:24:20,119
Dovchenko talked about him on the last episode, how I

428
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,039
haven't seen him in a long time or heard his

429
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:23,880
name in a long time, but he got sixth place

430
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:28,720
in this event for seventy six thousand dollars. In the

431
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:32,119
fifteen hundred dollars freeze out, Siro Gonzalez topped a field

432
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:36,119
of twenty six hundred and seventeen entries to win almost

433
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:40,240
four hundred and fifty thousand dollars his first bracelet as well.

434
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:42,880
Two names that stick out to me here two guys

435
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,160
that play in the studio A bit you got sixth

436
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,839
place Brandon Hamlet ninety three thousand dollars for him, and

437
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:53,000
then Aramzobian finishing in eighth place for fifty four thousand dollars.

438
00:24:53,039 --> 00:24:56,839
I believe I saw on a Ram's Instagram story that

439
00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:00,279
he lost a pot to be one of eight, and

440
00:25:00,319 --> 00:25:01,960
then I don't know if you busted on the hand

441
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:05,359
or busted shortly thereafter, but either way, A Ramzobe in

442
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:09,319
eighth place here in the fifteen hundred dollars freeze out

443
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:13,599
the one K tag team the event that I played

444
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:17,519
without playing a single hand in the tournament thanks to

445
00:25:17,559 --> 00:25:21,000
my guy Ronnie Barta. Looks like twenty seven players left

446
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:25,720
from the field of thirteen hundred and seventy five Up

447
00:25:25,759 --> 00:25:27,920
top in this one is almost one hundred and eighty

448
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:31,079
five thousand dollars. We'll talk about this one on a

449
00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:34,039
future episode. You got the ten K limit duce to

450
00:25:34,039 --> 00:25:37,160
seven Championship. Looks like they're playing a couple more hands

451
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,480
before they finish out on the night they are deep

452
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,039
into the money. There were one hundred and seventy six

453
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:47,279
entries in this field right now. Poker New says eleven left.

454
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:50,079
And the names that I see Todd Brunton, Justin Smith,

455
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:54,119
Andrew Kelsall aka aj Kelsal, Nick Shulman, Shulman trying to

456
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,200
do it again, Billy Baxter, the legends still in the mix.

457
00:25:57,559 --> 00:26:04,440
Look at this name Nihoa Kihara again. This guy unfreaking believable.

458
00:26:04,559 --> 00:26:07,799
So some some big names here in the mix and

459
00:26:07,839 --> 00:26:11,680
the ten K limit two to seven Championship, they should

460
00:26:11,799 --> 00:26:15,279
play to a winner on Friday, and we'll have the

461
00:26:15,319 --> 00:26:18,960
information on who took this one down and scored the

462
00:26:19,599 --> 00:26:22,160
three hundred and ninety two thousand dollars first place prize

463
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,920
once it ends. I do want to do a check

464
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:27,359
in here on two events that we talked about on

465
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:32,079
the last episode. First up, the w s AP Mystery Millions.

466
00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:36,599
So they played Day one C on Thursday, the third

467
00:26:36,799 --> 00:26:42,000
of five starting flights. They got three and forty three entries.

468
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:46,440
How does that compare to last year's Day one C. Well,

469
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,440
it's up now, it's not up as much as the

470
00:26:49,519 --> 00:26:51,920
first two starting flights were up. The first starting flight

471
00:26:52,039 --> 00:26:55,119
was up twenty three point six percent, the second starting

472
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:58,079
flight was up twenty four point three percent. This one

473
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,880
is still up though, up four point nine percent. So

474
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,880
it continues to pace well does the Mystery Millions. And

475
00:27:05,519 --> 00:27:09,920
it's kind of setting up nicely because we're what a

476
00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:13,319
week away less than a week away from the WSP

477
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:17,000
main event. So are we starting to gain that momentum?

478
00:27:17,039 --> 00:27:18,960
Is the World Series of Poker starting to gain the

479
00:27:19,039 --> 00:27:22,359
momentum it needs to head into the WSP main event

480
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:24,480
to put up a really big number. You know, a

481
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:28,000
lot of people are kind of thinking that the wspre

482
00:27:28,039 --> 00:27:30,880
main event is going to be down once again. I'm

483
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,640
trying to remain as optimistic as possible, and if I

484
00:27:33,799 --> 00:27:36,200
was to point to something that would allow me to

485
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,799
be optimistic, it would be this. You know, you got

486
00:27:38,799 --> 00:27:41,640
the Ladies Championship set in a record field, you got

487
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:45,440
this Mystery Millions. Looks like it's performing very very well

488
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:48,160
over these first three starting flights. Two starting flights to

489
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:51,440
go still, so we'll see how this one pans out

490
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,960
the rest of the way, but things are looking pretty

491
00:27:54,039 --> 00:27:57,640
pretty good here at the World Series of Poker for

492
00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:59,559
the Mystery million to know what they have to hit

493
00:27:59,599 --> 00:28:03,480
on Fry. Last year's Day one D had five three

494
00:28:03,599 --> 00:28:06,880
hundred and fourteen entries and then Day one E got

495
00:28:07,039 --> 00:28:11,119
eighty one hundred and eighteen entries, so two giant numbers.

496
00:28:11,559 --> 00:28:14,200
So that's what we're looking for here on Friday and

497
00:28:14,279 --> 00:28:17,759
Saturday to hit. And then the other event that I

498
00:28:17,799 --> 00:28:20,000
do want to check in on, we're gonna go off

499
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,359
property once again. We're gonna check back in on this

500
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:27,200
ten k win Summer Championship. I told you guys yesterday

501
00:28:27,319 --> 00:28:30,319
or on the last episode about how it drew eleven

502
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:34,240
hundred and seventy entries for a prize school just shy

503
00:28:34,599 --> 00:28:36,720
of eleven million dollars. It did have a ten million

504
00:28:36,759 --> 00:28:40,240
dollar guarantee, so it cleared that. But the that eleven

505
00:28:40,279 --> 00:28:42,880
hundred and seventy entries was down almost twenty four percent

506
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:46,759
from the year prior. That said, one hundred and fifty

507
00:28:46,799 --> 00:28:50,960
one places paid this year. They are well into the money.

508
00:28:51,039 --> 00:28:53,160
It looks like if I'm looking at Poker Atlas and

509
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:56,640
this information is correct, looks like they just wrapped up play.

510
00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,200
Sixty four players remain. They are all in the money.

511
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:04,079
They are all guaranteed at least thirty two one thousand dollars.

512
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:08,640
First place in this tournament a whopping one point eight

513
00:29:08,759 --> 00:29:12,640
two four million dollars. Second place is one point two

514
00:29:13,039 --> 00:29:18,079
four four million dollars. In my opinion, this is the

515
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:22,640
event that the newly added GG millions high Roller, that

516
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:26,559
ten k event earlier at the w S a P.

517
00:29:27,119 --> 00:29:29,880
That's what that event was supposed to be, like multi

518
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:33,839
flight ten k high roller event, you know, if you

519
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,279
ask me, that's what the g GG millions is supposed

520
00:29:36,279 --> 00:29:37,599
to be. It's supposed to be on par with like

521
00:29:37,599 --> 00:29:40,720
this ten k Win Summer Championship, the ten k Win

522
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:44,759
Summer Championship got about, you know, right around double the entries,

523
00:29:44,799 --> 00:29:47,599
double the prize pool in it, and that's largely because

524
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,880
of well won the timing too. This had a guarantee

525
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,200
on it at the Dowasity event doesn't have a guarantee

526
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:55,559
on it. You know. WSP doesn't really do guaranteed prize

527
00:29:55,559 --> 00:29:58,480
pools unless it's doing you know, the million Maker where

528
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:00,920
they're guaranteeing a first place prize or they're guarantee in

529
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:03,359
some of those bounty pool stuff like that. Right, But

530
00:30:03,599 --> 00:30:05,319
you know, if you do want to have the GG

531
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,240
millions high roller pop off, like I think, slapping a

532
00:30:08,279 --> 00:30:10,400
guarantee and it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world, right.

533
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:16,160
It does look like Alexander Chevlikov, the winner of the

534
00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:19,119
twenty twenty five EPT Monte Carlo main event. It looks

535
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:22,759
like he is the chip leader entering day three of

536
00:30:22,799 --> 00:30:26,680
this Win Summer Championship. And then another quick news item

537
00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:31,079
from the win. It was announced today on or yesterday

538
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:35,599
on the Poker News podcast that the WPT World Championship

539
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:39,920
will be returning to the Win in December, and that'll

540
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:42,839
be its fifth year at December. I love that series

541
00:30:43,559 --> 00:30:45,359
it's one of the best of the year. It's the

542
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:47,960
second best series of the year to the World Series

543
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,599
of Poker. I can't wait to play it. I've been

544
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,599
I've been kind of thinking these last few days, like

545
00:30:53,759 --> 00:30:56,319
I really wish that the schedule would come out so

546
00:30:56,359 --> 00:30:58,599
I get start planning and seeing what I want to play.

547
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,960
Freaking love of that series, so very much looking forward

548
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,240
to it. And you know, even though they didn't announce

549
00:31:05,279 --> 00:31:07,599
any dates, they didn't announce anything on the schedule. All

550
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,839
they said was that it is coming back in December

551
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,559
for its fifth year, So we'll be on alert for

552
00:31:13,599 --> 00:31:16,160
when all that stuff drops. I'm assuming it's gonna take

553
00:31:16,519 --> 00:31:19,559
a little bit of time to get all that out there.

554
00:31:19,559 --> 00:31:25,039
But that's that. That's the pod. Relatively short and sweet here,

555
00:31:25,079 --> 00:31:27,799
but we are heading into Friday. We are getting very

556
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:31,880
very close to the World Series of Poker Main Event.

557
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:35,880
I cannot freaking wait. It's going to be absolutely awesome.

558
00:31:36,359 --> 00:31:38,720
I'm gonna be in there again this year. First up,

559
00:31:38,759 --> 00:31:41,079
I am going to play the Mini main Event, a

560
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,880
tournament I also love. I think I had to skip

561
00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:46,240
it last year or maybe the year before, I can't remember,

562
00:31:46,279 --> 00:31:49,440
but I love that freaking tournament. It's great. So I'll

563
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,960
be in there for those two events. That'll close out

564
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,480
the plane for my summer, and you know, of course

565
00:31:54,519 --> 00:31:57,799
I'll be there on site just about every single day.
