Speaker 1: Hello, everyone, Welcome back to a new episode of the
Speaker 1: Poker Go Podcast. My name is Donnie Peters. His name
Speaker 1: is Tim, Michael Phelps Duckworth. I will tell you why
Speaker 1: you guys are doing well. The PGT PLO series just
Speaker 1: wrapped up yesterday, so that's going to be the heavy
Speaker 1: focus of this episode. From Tim and I. Matthew Wantman
Speaker 1: the big winner from all of it. We'll touch on
Speaker 1: that how Wantman did his success, which was pretty plentiful,
Speaker 1: and then we'll get into the PGT leaderboard and how
Speaker 1: things shake out heading into the Super High Roller Bowl PLO.
Speaker 1: Of course, we do have to update everyone on our
Speaker 1: little fantasy competition between Tim and I and then yeah,
Speaker 1: we'll talk about that Super High Rollerblele PLO. So still
Speaker 1: a very heavy PLO centric episode. So if you hate
Speaker 1: the four card game, I guess you can turn this off,
Speaker 1: you know, I guess. I guess That's how it is.
Speaker 1: The reason why I called him Michael Phelps is because Tim.
Speaker 1: Obviously people can't see this, but Tim and I are
Speaker 1: on video. He has no shirt on and he has
Speaker 1: cupping marks all over.
Speaker 2: What are you doing? I got copy obviously I heard.
Speaker 1: I mean this is hilarious because I I only saw
Speaker 1: like one video on I think Instagram of some guy
Speaker 1: who said cupping has no benefits at all. Okay, I'm
Speaker 1: just I'm just I'm just telling.
Speaker 2: You I've never done it, and I wanted to try,
Speaker 2: and I have a lingering shoulder issue from well.
Speaker 1: Those cupping marks are nowhere near your shoulder. I mean
Speaker 1: obviously there are some on your shoulder.
Speaker 2: See it's here in my trap and then my back. Anyway,
Speaker 2: I wanted to try it. It was a toss up
Speaker 2: between that and acupuncture and copying one on this occasion.
Speaker 2: I'll try acupunction next.
Speaker 1: So I have I actually have, you can't see it.
Speaker 1: I have a little acupuncture matt.
Speaker 2: I have one of those.
Speaker 1: So yeah, when I play online poker, because I play
Speaker 1: a lot of online poker tournaments. Now, every break I
Speaker 1: get up, I stand up behind me on my acupuncture
Speaker 1: matt for thirty seconds. I do some quick push ups.
Speaker 1: I do some breathing exercises on that five minute break. Actually,
Speaker 1: you know what's interesting now that I say it. I
Speaker 1: know we said we're going to talk about PLO, but
Speaker 1: hold on, we'll get back the wsp dot com. The
Speaker 1: breaks are now six minutes.
Speaker 2: What.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like they start the timer and it starts like
Speaker 1: five minutes and fifty something seconds, right, so you actually
Speaker 1: get an extra minute. I don't hate it, to be honest,
Speaker 1: I think it's kind of cool anyway. Just want to
Speaker 1: randomly put.
Speaker 2: That out, very random. Yeah, have you actually tried Have
Speaker 2: you tried acupuncture? Real acupunction?
Speaker 1: No? I haven't tried real acupuncture. I mean I just haven't.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's next to me?
Speaker 1: Should I?
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know if copy like you said,
Speaker 2: you said something about copying not working. I've never done it.
Speaker 2: I'll let you know in a few days if i've.
Speaker 1: Me I said that based on one random person I've
Speaker 1: never met or seen before in my life. I've not
Speaker 1: researched any of this myself. I just saw a video.
Speaker 1: I am very much like TikTok news media essentially, although

Speaker 1: let's get in to the PGT PLO series recap. We
Speaker 1: got Matthew Wantman topping the leaderboard aka Bucky as he
Speaker 1: is known commonly amongst the poker circles. There were nine
Speaker 1: events as part of this series and Bucky cash in
Speaker 1: six of them, which is pretty damn incredible if you
Speaker 1: ask me. He also won one of the events. He
Speaker 1: won event number three, a five thousand dollars PLO event
Speaker 1: for one hundred and seventy eight thousand, two hundred and
Speaker 1: fifty dollars. The other cashes for Wantment included event number two,
Speaker 1: the pl Progressive Bounty. He got ninth place for fourteen
Speaker 1: K event number four, the ten K PLO, fourth place
Speaker 1: four ninety thousand dollars. Event number five, a fifteen K
Speaker 1: pl PKO eleventh place there for twenty two thousand dollars,
Speaker 1: and I'm guessing he probably got some bounties along the way.
Speaker 1: Event number six another ten K potlom and Omaha third
Speaker 1: place for just under one hundred and twenty thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: And then event number nine fifty one hundred dollars PLO
Speaker 1: bounty that was a single day tournament, the final tournament
Speaker 1: seventh place for Bucky, and that one for just over
Speaker 1: ten thousand dollars. All told, he won four hundred and
Speaker 1: thirty four thousand, three hundred and eighty dollars in prize money.
Speaker 1: That does not include any bounties that he might have
Speaker 1: won along the way. It also doesn't include the ten
Speaker 1: thousand dollars PGT passport that he now has in his
Speaker 1: possession and he can put to use in future PGT events.
Speaker 1: So four hundred and fifty three points for Wantman to
Speaker 1: top the leaderboard. Right behind him not too far off,
Speaker 1: Jeremy Osmas four hundred and twenty points, Alex fox In
Speaker 1: three seventy eight, Daniel legrand Who three sixty six, and
Speaker 1: Sammy Sippola three forty seven. That is the top five
Speaker 1: as things rounded out, if you want to extend it
Speaker 1: to the top ten. You had Isaac Hackson in sixth place,
Speaker 1: Ben Lamb in seventh place, Ben Tolering in eighth place.
Speaker 1: You want to Yuka Mining in ninth place, and James
Speaker 1: Chen in tenth place. A lot of really really really
Speaker 1: big names, you know, doing well at the series also,
Speaker 1: you know, showing up at the series. You know, there
Speaker 1: were obviously some big names that didn't put up a
Speaker 1: ton of results. Pretty good showing overall for the the
Speaker 1: entire series. You know, obviously the Wantman really showed out.
Speaker 1: You know, he was absolutely crushing. Had all those cases
Speaker 1: that I mentioned five in a row. He knew it was.
Speaker 1: I knew it was like three or four for sure,
Speaker 1: five in a row. I mean, what a beast, absolute
Speaker 1: beast it was. It's almost like kind of a matter
Speaker 1: of time for for Wantman. You know, he plays all
Speaker 1: of the events that we have, well, not the mixed
Speaker 1: but he plays everything else, all the PLO stuff, all
Speaker 1: the no limits stuff. He's always out there battling, always
Speaker 1: seems to be you know, kind of knocking at the door.
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously he's won some events before, but being
Speaker 1: able to become a series champion is extremely incredible, so
Speaker 1: good for him. Just quickly on the other notable happenings
Speaker 1: throughout the series. The series kicked off with Latarro Guerra,
Speaker 1: who's the O G Polo Series champ. He won event
Speaker 1: number one. Uh funny there he he beat josh a
Speaker 1: and heads up play. Josh Aray had a big chip lead,
Speaker 1: and I mean he punted it off for sure. I
Speaker 1: mean there was a couple of hands that you know,
Speaker 1: I'm sure josh would want to have back. And this
Speaker 1: isn't the first time that we've seen josh lose a
Speaker 1: big chip lead, was it? Was it the plo also
Speaker 1: or was it something else?
Speaker 2: The first ever twenty five k Maine. I think he
Speaker 2: had a big chip lead the final day.
Speaker 1: Before at at you know, in the studio, and it
Speaker 1: hasn't worked out for him. So maybe eventually, you know,
Speaker 1: josh Ai will find himself in the PGT winners circle
Speaker 1: inside the studio, grab himself one of those trophies, getting
Speaker 1: the winner's foot or all of that. But kind of
Speaker 1: blew it. And event number two or sorry, event number one,
Speaker 1: I should say, Dylan Wiseman won event number two again.
Speaker 1: What do you mean again?
Speaker 2: Well, he won event number two in March. Look at that.
Speaker 1: I mean, Dylan Wiseman's a freaking beast when it comes
Speaker 1: to PLO, absolute freaking beast. Now, Dylan Wiseman had a
Speaker 1: big chip lead in this event and did not give
Speaker 1: it up like Josh, are you? Daniel Nigran New Everyone
Speaker 1: knows Daniel event number six winner. He did it again.
Speaker 1: Daniel had a pretty good series overall five cashes he
Speaker 1: had this victory. He won more than three hundred and
Speaker 1: fifty thousand dollars in prize money, three hundred and sixty
Speaker 1: six PGT points. Tim and I will hit on the
Speaker 1: overall PGT leaderboard, but Daniel did move up on that
Speaker 1: season long leaderboard, so we'll touch on that a little
Speaker 1: bit later in this podcast. Jeremy Osmas finally winning a
Speaker 1: PGT event, his first of this year, his first of
Speaker 1: last year, his first in six one hundred and eighty
Speaker 1: four days. He won event number seven. What was that?
Speaker 1: Fifteen K? Yeah, yeah, fifteen K. He won two hundred
Speaker 1: and eighty eight thousand dollars. Long, long, long, long battle
Speaker 1: heads up with gruff Pugh Jones. I mean they battled forever.
Speaker 1: Nick Shulman got third place in that one. Nigroney made
Speaker 1: a deep run he got seventh in that event. And
Speaker 1: then we had Ben Toleering once again closing out a
Speaker 1: series in the twenty five K buy an event with
Speaker 1: a win. He did it at Poker Masters, he did
Speaker 1: it here at the PGT PLO series. So Ben Toleraing,
Speaker 1: one of the absolute all time best PLO players in
Speaker 1: the history of the game, comes in, does extremely well
Speaker 1: during the series, wins the twenty five K for just
Speaker 1: under half a million dollars. All right, So there have
Speaker 1: now been four PLO series as part of the PGT
Speaker 1: two per season over the past two seasons. Kind of
Speaker 1: similar turnouts and results from all of them. The first
Speaker 1: one had nine events, one seventy nine entries, nine and
Speaker 1: fifty thousand dollars in prize money. The second one had
Speaker 1: ten events, nine hundred and sixty eight entries nine point
Speaker 1: almost nine point seven million dollars in prize money. The
Speaker 1: third one ten events, again nine hundred and sixteen entries,
Speaker 1: more than just over eight point seven million dollars in
Speaker 1: prize money. The fourth one, this is the one that
Speaker 1: just wrapped up nine events, nine hundred and sixty five entries,
Speaker 1: eight point five four or five million dollars in prize money.
Speaker 2: One.
Speaker 1: You, sir, are the PGT commissioner. You are the brains
Speaker 1: behind the PGT PLO series. How do you feel this
Speaker 1: one went as it compares to some of the others.
Speaker 2: I think this, I mean, look, all these PLO series
Speaker 2: are pretty amazing. We have people coming from all over
Speaker 2: the world to come play PLO for ten days straight
Speaker 2: and it is great to see new faces, old faces,
Speaker 2: people that we only see you know, twice a year. Really,
Speaker 2: plus the world series come to the studio to play PLO.
Speaker 2: So this series, I think it was a great turnout.
Speaker 2: We obviously had some events going on, you know, big
Speaker 2: events around the world that affective numbers such as EBT Cyprus,
Speaker 2: and we still you know, broke some not broke records,
Speaker 2: but we still set some pretty big field sizes in
Speaker 2: these events that you know, really really impressed me. Especially
Speaker 2: like we look at the five K we had, you know,
Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty five player field. Twice, we had
Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty nine entrant field and they were
Speaker 2: you know, top five biggest five k's we've done in Omaha.
Speaker 2: Even with the ten k's we had you know, a
Speaker 2: couple of hundred player fields, a couple of one hundred
Speaker 2: entrant field sorry that you know, was top five ever
Speaker 2: for a ten K. So it shows a PELO is
Speaker 2: still popular. Players are coming down wanting to play this,
Speaker 2: and you know, like we've kind of touched on the
Speaker 2: podcast to us you know, a few series summaries. We
Speaker 2: still have a lot of people missing, a lot of
Speaker 2: people traveling, you know, deciding to skip a series here
Speaker 2: or there to try something different, and that's okay, you'll
Speaker 2: come back eventually, come back to where the real, the real,
Speaker 2: the real men play, real men and women play. But yeah,
Speaker 2: I was extremely happy with how everything went.
Speaker 1: Is this the best PGTPLO series schedule you've put together
Speaker 1: or you know, because obviously through the I think through
Speaker 1: the first three, I would say that, you you know,
Speaker 1: you obviously got player feedback and then kind of change
Speaker 1: some things. Is this the best one? Would you just
Speaker 1: take this one and copy paste for the next one,
Speaker 1: or is there something that you're looking to change, you know,
Speaker 1: possibly that you've heard from the players that you want
Speaker 1: to adapt for the next iteration of this series.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the first few we had some split pot like
Speaker 2: we had some Omaha High Low in there, we kind
Speaker 2: of realized that, hey, this is a high only series.
Speaker 2: Let's so guess, let's get rid of this high low.
Speaker 2: We even tried like a dealer's choice, let's get rid
Speaker 2: of that. We're just all in on the high there.
Speaker 2: You know a couple of comments about the schedule for
Speaker 2: this time was we did go from a ten to
Speaker 2: a fifteen, back to a ten, back to a fifteen.
Speaker 2: A little bit confusing. That was done for a reason.
Speaker 2: But I can understand the flow of steadily increasing buy
Speaker 2: ins being a little more popular, so will probably make
Speaker 2: that change. I thought this schedule was the best of
Speaker 2: all four. However, I think the next schedule I've already
Speaker 2: done it. It's ready, it's in the works. I think
Speaker 2: it's going to be better than ever. And hopefully these
Speaker 2: guys that you know, I've already kind of briefed them
Speaker 2: on it. I'm pretty excited to try this one new
Speaker 2: event we're going to do and yeah, hopefully they all
Speaker 2: come back in March.
Speaker 1: What about even number seven from this time around, because
Speaker 1: it took place on a Sunday, fifteen day by in
Speaker 1: potlam and Omaha. Sixty four entries. Do you so basely
Speaker 1: what I'm getting at For those that don't know, for
Speaker 1: the major PGT events Poker Girl Cup, USPO and Poker Masters,
Speaker 1: we skip Sundays. We don't go on Sundays, but we've
Speaker 1: been going on Sundays for these other non nakers calling
Speaker 1: the miners if you want whatever, I don't know. PGT
Speaker 1: plusories should be a freaking.
Speaker 2: Majrix for numbers to say it's a major.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. So are are are we going
Speaker 1: to go on Sundays next time? Like, what's what's the
Speaker 1: kind of the thought process? There was there any feedback
Speaker 1: from the players, you know, I mean obviously now, especially
Speaker 1: because it was you know, it's kind of interesting because
Speaker 1: before you answer, you know, we it's football season, so
Speaker 1: obviously a lot of these guys watch football, They bet
Speaker 1: on it, all that sort of stuff. So like, on
Speaker 1: one hand, you know, you have players that are like
Speaker 1: I just want to stay at home or wherever I am,
Speaker 1: go to a sports book, maybe friend's house, whatever, watch
Speaker 1: a bunch of the games, bet on them, chill out.
Speaker 2: Cool.
Speaker 1: On the other hand, I mean, we had the TVs
Speaker 1: had football all over them. They were on the big monitors,
Speaker 1: the huge led Wall, so like it was, it was
Speaker 1: a cool atmosphere to be in there and be playing.
Speaker 1: So so yeah, what are your thoughts there?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, originally the Sundays off was due to
Speaker 2: a couple of factors. You know, obviously football Obviously for
Speaker 2: the not limbic guys, Sundays were pretty popular on WSP
Speaker 2: dot com, so that was the reason we took Sundays off.
Speaker 2: It's also was great for i think staff, both US
Speaker 2: and ARIA to have that little day break in between
Speaker 2: a series. So heading into next season, it's something we're
Speaker 2: going to do across the board in all our series,
Speaker 2: specifically requested from ARIA. It just helps us scheduling. We
Speaker 2: also see really good numbers after the day off. You know,
Speaker 2: you give these players their own chance to just reset,
Speaker 2: they come back and gamble it up even more so,
Speaker 2: whether it's the PLO series or PGT Last Chance, the
Speaker 2: Mix Game series and our majors, we're going to be
Speaker 2: Sundays off going forward. So that's that's definitely one big
Speaker 2: change for the PGT for next season, and some other
Speaker 2: little things obviously. I mean, if anyone's been on social
Speaker 2: today and seeing Daniel grind and call me out for
Speaker 2: owing him seventy thousand dollars. We're going to make some
Speaker 2: small tinkerings, and we were already planning to do this,
Speaker 2: you know, slight adjustment to the points for when it
Speaker 2: comes to bounties. You know, we're also going to make
Speaker 2: some small adjustments to points for the different buy in
Speaker 2: such as the fifteen k and fifty ks. And you know,
Speaker 2: we're going to have a little look at the payouts
Speaker 2: for these bigger fields because once you hit those like
Speaker 2: one P fifty, you know, around that those payouts they're
Speaker 2: a little they're not great, so we want to maybe
Speaker 2: just tweak them a bit. But yeah, the change is
Speaker 2: coming for next season. Always happy to hear feedback from
Speaker 2: players and have whether it's healthy discussions or nonhealthy discussions.
Speaker 2: We're always open to, you know, trying to put on
Speaker 2: the best product for these guys, because at the end
Speaker 2: of the day, it's I see it as there to her.
Speaker 2: You know, we're just we're just building it for them,
Speaker 2: but it's them that's playing and putting up the money
Speaker 2: and spending hundreds of thousand dollars to try and win
Speaker 2: some PGT titles.
Speaker 1: Well, I have a suggestion. It just came to me
Speaker 1: right now. Okay, it's specific to the PLO series, so
Speaker 1: it it aligns here. Okay, next year, when we do
Speaker 1: the PLO series and we have Sunday off, we should
Speaker 1: like organize some sort of big golf outing for all
Speaker 1: the players and like send some cameras there and do
Speaker 1: like a whole thing. All these guys, like.
Speaker 2: You mean the six people that play golf.
Speaker 1: No, there's a lot of them that that I think play.
Speaker 1: All the Finns play. There's three or four of them.
Speaker 1: You have Jonas Cromwerd, or you have Sean Winter, Nick
Speaker 1: Shulman plays golf, like Livingston, Like all these guys golf. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like you like eight to ten of them, And it
Speaker 1: could kind of be like you know, going back in
Speaker 1: the day when they had like the nuts or whatever
Speaker 1: the heck it was on WSP, Like you know, like
Speaker 1: we'll make like some content. We'll send Antonio out there
Speaker 1: with his cameras and like we'll just have fun with it,
Speaker 1: some kind of Ben Lamb plays golf, All these guys golf,
Speaker 1: Like you know, it'd be kind of cool. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I think it would only really work for like the
Speaker 1: PLO series because like they a lot of the guys
Speaker 1: like they make a whole thing of like the golf
Speaker 1: and the poker. I mean, the Finns came out. They
Speaker 1: played in this Raiders one hundred and fifty thousand dollars
Speaker 1: tournament the weekend before, Like they were in that scramble.
Speaker 1: I know, Sean Winter was going over to their villa,
Speaker 1: you know, hitting on the putting green in the mornings beforehand,
Speaker 1: so like they're they're all into it. So that would
Speaker 1: be a cool little kind of twist because are golf,
Speaker 1: Like he'd be in there too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of people play golf. It's it's also
Speaker 2: you know, next series is going to be late March,
Speaker 2: around March Madness, so there is basketball to watch, you
Speaker 2: know for some people. But yeah, I like this idea.
Speaker 2: We'll get tickering and trying to figure out how to
Speaker 2: execute something pretty some fun content.
Speaker 1: You mentioned already having the schedule lined up next PLO series?
Speaker 1: Are we still sticking with two per season?
Speaker 2: So two? And look, I've gone back and forth. I
Speaker 2: would I feel it's weird to have to a season.
Speaker 2: I feel like the second one or whatever, the first
Speaker 2: one should have some difference as in, like maybe it's
Speaker 2: all higher buyings. Maybe it's we'll call it something else.
Speaker 2: But like you look at these numbers, they're so successful.
Speaker 2: It's just like one who cares if there's two three,
Speaker 2: They still get good numbers. So like for now, yeah,
Speaker 2: we're going to have a one and a two one
Speaker 2: in March, one in the fall, and yeah, they could
Speaker 2: be the same schedules, but I think people like people
Speaker 2: like the schedule. They want to come out and play.
Speaker 2: They don't get these PLO series anywhere else in the
Speaker 2: world except for one series in Rasvedov. So yeah, I
Speaker 2: don't see us at all at all changing what we're
Speaker 2: doing right now.
Speaker 1: Any notable feedback from the players that you want to share,
Speaker 1: anything that sticks out.
Speaker 2: It's weird because I did have some complaints about this.
Speaker 2: You know, we do this twenty five K main event,
Speaker 2: they play twelve levels, they come back the next day
Speaker 2: with two tables, and even in the mix game series,
Speaker 2: we've scheduled something on the final day to give people
Speaker 2: that are traveling an option to play something. And we've
Speaker 2: done a few different things with PLO. We've done a
Speaker 2: two K five card, We've done a five K Dealer's Choice,
Speaker 2: We've done a five K five card. I believe and
Speaker 2: they haven't been great this one, you know, we made
Speaker 2: the decision to just put something kind of normal. We
Speaker 2: did a five K Bownie normal bounty, so two K
Speaker 2: per person knockout. And even though a lot of players
Speaker 2: like to argue with me yesterday, it was always this
Speaker 2: event and previous finale events have always been part of
Speaker 2: the Points Race. So what that meant was Jeremy Osmus,
Speaker 2: Jesse Lonis, Alex Foxon, Matthew Weman, we're all playing this event.
Speaker 2: One of those players I'm not going to say his name,
Speaker 2: fired a lot of bullets in an effort to win
Speaker 2: the Player of the Series. But I think it was
Speaker 2: a success. It had eighty four entrants. I would say
Speaker 2: that's pretty good for a one day bounty turbo five k.
Speaker 1: I need to correct you, Okay, it had sixty nine
Speaker 1: entrance and Daniel Lgrini sure because he fired fifteen bullets.
Speaker 2: Tim's day. I was going to say, he's already called
Speaker 2: me out, but yeah, I think it was. I think
Speaker 2: it was both a very successful event. You know, we
Speaker 2: had four hundred and twenty k in the prize school
Speaker 2: and made the Points Race still active because you know,
Speaker 2: Nigrano had to win and fade certain positions, certain finishes
Speaker 2: from Matt Wantman, while also at the final table we
Speaker 2: had both Bemba and Sammy needing to win to overtake Wantment.
Speaker 2: Plus it was Fox and had a sweat. You know,
Speaker 2: it made the points race like interesting, even though it
Speaker 2: was in two different rooms, two different events. But I
Speaker 2: get what the what the players are saying. It's like
Speaker 2: it makes more sense to end with the main event,
Speaker 2: but like it's hard to argue against these numbers, and
Speaker 2: like when we go to finalize the schedule, why would
Speaker 2: we want to kill an event that had you know,
Speaker 2: eighty four entrants in four hundred and twenty k in
Speaker 2: the prize pool.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean for me, it's it's I see both sides.
Speaker 1: I obviously saw the turnout. It was great. You know,
Speaker 1: there was obviously the names that you mentioned. Those players
Speaker 1: would normally skip that final event. You know, in past
Speaker 1: when that final event hasn't counted, they like the bigger
Speaker 1: name players just don't show up. I mean, yeah, Hans down.
Speaker 1: So that's that's how it is. That said, you know,
Speaker 1: it's I do think you should end on the twenty
Speaker 1: five K, But you know, the business person in me says,
Speaker 1: I mean, you like that revenue, you like those numbers,
Speaker 1: like you like that sort of stuff. I also like
Speaker 1: the fact that it makes so like most of the
Speaker 1: time on the final day when the twenty five K
Speaker 1: Final Table or Final Day is happening, the studio is dead,
Speaker 1: like the atmosphere is dead because there's not all that
Speaker 1: stuff going on, Like you don't have all these extra
Speaker 1: you know, events happening in players and whatnot. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean maybe the solution, and this really only works
Speaker 1: for like this series, would be to run the ten
Speaker 1: K satellite for Super High Rollable on this day, right,
Speaker 1: so then the room is still like lively, you think
Speaker 1: a lot of those players would probably still fire it,
Speaker 1: like like maybe that's the option and then and then
Speaker 1: kick off the Super High Rollable the following day. But
Speaker 1: obviously that you know, it's a quick turnaround and stuff
Speaker 1: like that. So I will also say that, like, I mean,
Speaker 1: there was a chance that like we would have signed
Speaker 1: off from the twenty five K stream and not known
Speaker 1: who the winner was, which I think I think is
Speaker 1: a little bit awkward. So like, you know, I think
Speaker 1: like part of me says, like we should stream the
Speaker 1: final table of whatever that final event is. But then
Speaker 1: it's also kind of like a really big step down
Speaker 1: because you're going from twenty five k to then that.
Speaker 1: So it's it's interesting, I kind I mean, I don't
Speaker 1: hate how it turned out, you know, I just I
Speaker 1: don't know if there's something better or not. So it's just, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's tricky.
Speaker 2: I don't know if there's a correct answer here, because
Speaker 2: you can argue every side of this.
Speaker 1: Well yeah, exactly. I mean I maybe just have the
Speaker 1: satellite on that day.
Speaker 2: Well that yeah, that works for the October one, But
Speaker 2: what are you doing March? True? True?
Speaker 1: I mean could you have a Could you have like
Speaker 1: a twenty five k single day?
Speaker 2: You could, but that's a lot of points that does.
Speaker 1: But then you would plan to stream both of them.
Speaker 2: I mean yeah, I mean yeah, as possible. I just
Speaker 2: it's just a little weird having two twenty five ks
Speaker 2: and one being a main event, one being like a hypotobo.
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, in these twenty five k hyperturbles
Speaker 1: everywhere every who cares you.
Speaker 2: True, I would say that this points race was a
Speaker 2: lot closer than some previous ones, so it did make
Speaker 2: the final event much more of a sweat we've had
Speaker 2: other events. You think the first one, Latara won three events,
Speaker 2: just killed everybody. Sammy killed everybody in his one. Daniel
Speaker 2: Geng had to basically crush the main event to win.
Speaker 2: This one was a little different, where it was like
Speaker 2: five or six people that had a realistic shot on
Speaker 2: that final day and not needing insane results, you know.
Speaker 2: So it was very different this time, and I guess
Speaker 2: it's just a part of the variance of the leaderboard
Speaker 2: and and awarding.
Speaker 1: A player of the series. I loved the PLO series.
Speaker 1: I mean I I didn't I thought it would be
Speaker 1: a success originally, you know, I just thought that PLO
Speaker 1: had gotten to a point the community was kind of like,
Speaker 1: in a way, asking for this. There was a lot
Speaker 1: of talk out there that made us think that this
Speaker 1: would work. So I never thought that it would be unsuccessful.
Speaker 1: That said, I didn't think that I would like it
Speaker 1: as much as I do like And I think that,
Speaker 1: you know, Daniel Legrand, who put out a couple of
Speaker 1: tweets late last night that I, you know, I just
Speaker 1: kind of want to reference. I think I tweeted something
Speaker 1: out that like, I love the PLO series. It's just
Speaker 1: so much fun. With all these guys. But what Daniel
Speaker 1: said is the PLO Red crew is my favorite crew.
Speaker 1: I'm one of the few who hangs in the high stakes.
Speaker 1: Nolan At hold them Slash PLO and Mixed Turney Streets
Speaker 1: and the PLO bunch are the nuts. The camaraderie is real.
Speaker 1: The Finns and the other Euros who come are all
Speaker 1: class just really fun group of guys. Sick talents too.
Speaker 1: He then quoted that and added to it he said
Speaker 1: crew observations, and then he put a bunch of questions
Speaker 1: and gave his answers complains the most mixed, has the
Speaker 1: most gamble PLO, happiest crew PLO, smokes the most weed
Speaker 1: PLO has the most money toss up, but definitely not
Speaker 1: the Mixed crew, highest myths. Nolam At hold them slowest crew,
Speaker 1: nolim At hold them friendliest crew PLO by a wide margin.
Speaker 1: And then he said, if you are curious about the
Speaker 1: answer to the other questions about the various crews asked below,
Speaker 1: and I'll get to it. But yeah, I mean the
Speaker 1: pl crew PLO crew is is just it's like so
Speaker 1: much fun. Yeah, these guys just they have a blast.
Speaker 1: They're all kind of you know, just just gambling, having fun.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 1: I'm sure there's there's something to it where I mean,
Speaker 1: like a lot of these guys are cash grinders. There's
Speaker 1: just I don't I don't think at this point there's
Speaker 1: enough PLO tournaments to like just make yourself a PLO
Speaker 1: tournament pro. So you do have to have that that
Speaker 1: bread and butter be cash games. So then this is
Speaker 1: kind of like more of an event to get together
Speaker 1: of everyone that that you know, frequents the cash games,
Speaker 1: you know, So it's it's a little bit more of
Speaker 1: a celebration and less of a grind, you know, as
Speaker 1: part of it. I love the gamble aspect and I
Speaker 1: think that plays into the whole competition and enthusiasm that
Speaker 1: is involved here. I mean, I'll definitely agree with Daniel
Speaker 1: that like the slowest crew is Nolan hold them and
Speaker 1: the complaints the most is the mixed I think that's
Speaker 1: both those things are givens. The only thing I might
Speaker 1: challenge Daniel on is highest percentage of knits. I mean
Speaker 1: the mixed game crew might.
Speaker 2: Be mixed guys.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean all of the hold of them guys
Speaker 1: are definitely knits. I mean, you know for sure most
Speaker 1: of them, but but who knows. I mean, the the
Speaker 1: PLO guys are They're just out there just blasting, just
Speaker 1: having a freaking time. So yeah, anyway, I thought that
Speaker 1: was interesting coming from Daniel. But I I love this series.
Speaker 1: I think it's great, got a lot of fun in there.
Speaker 1: I'm one of the one of the untold stories I
Speaker 1: guess would be Nacho Barbaro playing PLO while sweating all
Speaker 1: the sports bets that he has. I mean, this guy
Speaker 1: bets on everything everything. Yeah, he was at final tables
Speaker 1: sweating whatever games he put on a little monitor next
Speaker 1: to the table harder than he was sweating the action
Speaker 1: at the table. I mean, it was Natcho was just
Speaker 1: He's in the action.
Speaker 2: It was.
Speaker 1: It was so much fun. It was absolutely so much fun.
Speaker 1: PGT leaderboard updates. Obviously, lots of points were won during
Speaker 1: the PGTP series. Jeremy Osmas remains up on top. He's
Speaker 1: now up to two thy seven hundred and eighty nine points,
Speaker 1: so he has a lead of more than seven hundred
Speaker 1: points with Daniel Negron new in second place. Ozmas has
Speaker 1: he now has one win he won at number seven
Speaker 1: at this PLO series. He has twenty five cases more
Speaker 1: than five point eight million dollars one on the PGT
Speaker 1: this year. As I mentioned, Negron new in second. He's
Speaker 1: got three wins, twenty one cashes just under two point
Speaker 1: four million dollars one. What are the notable movements? What
Speaker 1: do we got happening here? I know you have a
Speaker 1: lot of different colors on this leaderboard. That so how
Speaker 1: it's all shaken out?
Speaker 2: Now? Yeah? Big, you know Big, you already touched on.
Speaker 2: Ozma's kind of extending his lead, you know. Negronda moving
Speaker 2: into second is pretty big. Two kind of under the
Speaker 2: radar moves first of all, Joe Sarrock picking up. He's
Speaker 2: third cash, so he's not eligible for the PGT Million
Speaker 2: Dollar Championship for real. He's nineteenth place, so he's pretty
Speaker 2: much locked in. He's aware of the championship. He's good.
Speaker 2: Ben Toleraane, he jumped up into eighteenth place. Obviously, he
Speaker 2: won the twenty five K. Pokemons is twenty five k here,
Speaker 2: he is aware of the championship. That was the first
Speaker 2: question he had after winning the twenty five k. So he's,
Speaker 2: you know, ready for that one.
Speaker 1: Jordan Griff let me let me hop in here. So
Speaker 1: PGT Championship. We've obviously talked about it many times. Million
Speaker 1: dollar free role at the end of the season. Five
Speaker 1: hundre k first place prize open to the top forty
Speaker 1: players on the PGT leaderboard. But you have to have
Speaker 1: at least three PGT cashes. Okay, we put that in there,
Speaker 1: so you know, you can't just like final table tows
Speaker 1: Man event and you're in. You know, you actually have
Speaker 1: to like put forth some effort. So Tim's pointing to
Speaker 1: those three cashes. There are a handful of people in
Speaker 1: the top forty that don't have three yet. There were
Speaker 1: some that got their third during the PLO series, so
Speaker 1: that's something to keep an eye on specifically as we
Speaker 1: are in this kind of home stretch now the PGT.
Speaker 1: You know these players that are out here saying like, Okay,
Speaker 1: I got to get this third cash. I got to
Speaker 1: get in there because I have enough points, I just
Speaker 1: need to find the next cash.
Speaker 2: Yeah. You know, Jordan griff he got his second cash,
Speaker 2: so he's very aware of the of the scenario. So
Speaker 2: obviously one more to go, plenty more chances for him.
Speaker 1: If you're chasing that like third cash, aren't you shouldn't
Speaker 1: you just Max lay rege and basically fold fold to cash.
Speaker 2: I think the best way to do it is, actually,
Speaker 2: you know, we're probably gonna talk about this a little later,
Speaker 2: but go to Texas and play the Texas Peeler roundup,
Speaker 2: play the main event, Max late the turbo, and for
Speaker 2: three K, which is significantly cheaper than five and ten
Speaker 2: whatever else we're doing in the studio, potentially min cash
Speaker 2: the main event there and then that's your third cash.
Speaker 2: That's the easiest way to do it.
Speaker 1: I think literally that still involves Max Late rege, like.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, but like Max lay Reggie, twenty five or
Speaker 2: ten or five can still be expensive and it still
Speaker 2: takes a while. I'm talking about a three K turbo
Speaker 2: that is a couple hours like of play versus you know, five, six,
Speaker 2: seven hours of play.
Speaker 1: Why don't you touch on? I mean, do you have
Speaker 1: any other one that?
Speaker 2: Yeah, A big couple you know is Sammy Sapilia, who's
Speaker 2: now twenty ninth on the leaderboard. We chatted a little bit.
Speaker 2: He understands like he may fall out. He's not going
Speaker 2: to be playing anything that gives him more points at
Speaker 2: this stage, so he's going to be watching the leaderboard
Speaker 2: same with his fellow finish Plostar Ls Persinian down in
Speaker 2: thirty six, more likely to fall out. But then you
Speaker 2: have people that jumped into the top forty. You know,
Speaker 2: we're talking about Alex fox and we have Sean Winter
Speaker 2: in there now, Jonathan Little moved up with his event
Speaker 2: one cash. So I think people now we're hitting the
Speaker 2: business and are very aware of the top forty. They
Speaker 2: understand the rules, they understand you know, what's they're asking
Speaker 2: us what's next, what's coming up? So we're you know,
Speaker 2: trying to get that out there maybe the next week
Speaker 2: to so that people can finalize their schedules and make
Speaker 2: a run at you know, qualifying for this million dollar
Speaker 2: free roll. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I know, Alex Foxon finally got into the top forty.
Speaker 1: I mean I feel like he's Alex obviously plays everything
Speaker 1: that the has other than the you know, the mixed games.
Speaker 1: I mean he even comes out for a couple of those,
Speaker 1: but it just hasn't really worked out for him in
Speaker 1: terms of getting results. But he is now within the
Speaker 1: top forty, currently sitting in thirty fifth place, So I
Speaker 1: think that that's that that's notable. Red Linn has kind
Speaker 1: of been bouncing around the PGT. You know, he's been in.
Speaker 1: He's been playing all of our stuff. Then he's been
Speaker 1: skipping stuff for some epts and Trenton's and whatnot, and
Speaker 1: he's played some of our stuff. So he's kind of
Speaker 1: been all over the place. Yeah, but he's sitting forty third.
Speaker 1: So if things ended right now, he would be in
Speaker 1: due to the people, some people ahead of him, you know,
Speaker 1: not reading the qualification requirements. That said, you know, he
Speaker 1: still does need to earn a couple of points. Matthew
Speaker 1: Wantman is moving up very nicely after all the success
Speaker 1: that he just had at the PGT PLO series. So
Speaker 1: I kind of keep an eye on on all of
Speaker 1: that as as it goes forward. I know Brian Kim
Speaker 1: is sixteenth right now, he's got enough points, he still
Speaker 1: needs a third cash. I did talk with him recently.
Speaker 1: You know, he's going to be trying to to hit
Speaker 1: some stuff. He can't come out for the NPT stuff,
Speaker 1: but last chance, you know, he's kind of looking at
Speaker 1: that to come out for those events. Obviously, those are
Speaker 1: super popular. Right before the PGT Championship event, as the
Speaker 1: name suggests, it's the last chance to get in, so
Speaker 1: that will be happening, and yeah, you know, I think
Speaker 1: it's a it's a fun little race. I like it,
Speaker 1: you know, kind of a little bit further outside of
Speaker 1: the top forty. You got Eric's Sidell on sixtieth place,
Speaker 1: and you got Jeremy Beck who's been playing many more
Speaker 1: PGT events. He's in sixty first place. Who else? We
Speaker 1: got Dan Shack in seventy third. You have Sam Silverell
Speaker 1: in seventy six, David Peters in seventy seventh, So I mean,
Speaker 1: all these people could kind of make runs. They play
Speaker 1: the events, right, Andrew Lichtenberger eighty fourth, John Reard in
Speaker 1: eighty eighth, so you know, they play all the stuff,
Speaker 1: just haven't really had the results to get up into
Speaker 1: the top forty. So we'll see how that goes. We've
Speaker 1: been told by Jonathan Tomile that he's going to be
Speaker 1: playing in Texas. He needs a third cash. Uh you know,
Speaker 1: he's got a ton of points. He obviously won the
Speaker 1: ws BE main event. That was a boatload of points
Speaker 1: right there. He needs a third cash, so we'll see
Speaker 1: if he's able to get it. I hope Victor Blam
Speaker 1: knows about it. I hope Phil Ivey knows about it.
Speaker 2: Phil Ivey has no idea.
Speaker 1: Let's go, guys, come on, let's go.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So that's the PGT leaderboard. It's obviously dot com.
Speaker 1: Everything is up to date there, so you guys can
Speaker 1: check it out and see how this goes. We have
Speaker 1: the Super High Rollable kicking off tomorrow, Tim, Tim and
Speaker 1: I are going to hit on that on this episode.
Speaker 1: It'll be the last thing that we talk about, but
Speaker 1: that's coming up. We have there's two events as part
Speaker 1: of the NAPT and then obviously Last Chance and and whatnot,
Speaker 1: and then if anything else gets announced, you can find
Speaker 1: it on the various Poker Grow and Poker Grow Tour channels.
Speaker 1: The biggest news of the podcast, we have to update
Speaker 1: everyone on our little fantasy shenanigans between you and I.
Speaker 1: So we drafted seven players each for the PGT PLO series,
Speaker 1: Super High Rollerable PLO, the two n APT events, and
Speaker 1: then the Texas PLO A round up. We did say,
Speaker 1: or I did say that the one rule was if
Speaker 1: if you're if anyone on your team doesn't cash during
Speaker 1: the PLO series, then you can drop one of those
Speaker 1: players and add someone new. You, being the PGT commissioner
Speaker 1: and having talked to everyone and really knowing who's coming
Speaker 1: and who's not. Somehow drafted someone who didn't show up
Speaker 1: at all for the pilos.
Speaker 2: I didn't know he was having Greencot issues at the time.
Speaker 1: Okay, too bad. Jos Samoo did not show up and
Speaker 1: play a single event, so he didn't cash. So you
Speaker 1: have the option to drop him. Oh, he's getting dropped
Speaker 1: someone else.
Speaker 2: So my team.
Speaker 1: My team is Elis Parson and Daniel LeGrande, Bryce Jockey,
Speaker 1: Alex Sox and Sean Troja, Jesse Lonis and Nick Shulman.
Speaker 1: You have Jeremy Osmas, Josh Aria, Jim Collape, Dylan Wiseman,
Speaker 1: Ronald Kaiser, Jousamoo and Alan Lee. We have three categories,
Speaker 1: Most PGT points, most wins, and most cases. I'm up
Speaker 1: two to one in the categories points. I'm ahead twelve
Speaker 1: hundred and seventy five to nine to twenty six. Let's go.
Speaker 1: I'm also up in cash is twenty one to fifteen.
Speaker 1: You are up in wins two to one. You have
Speaker 1: who Ozmas and Wiseman really.
Speaker 2: Be three wins? Aria didn't choke.
Speaker 1: On Remember what are you gonna do? I mean, I
Speaker 1: had a couple of close callses. Well, yeah, Nivaron you
Speaker 1: had I mean Degn who got a win, but he
Speaker 1: also had several deep runs. Troja had a third, Showman
Speaker 1: had a third Fox and had a third and a
Speaker 1: second I believe, so so yeah, so you get to
Speaker 1: drop Jousamoo. Who are you picking up?
Speaker 2: Well, it depends what I'm trying to achieve here. Do
Speaker 2: I just try and extend my lead for the wins?
Speaker 2: Or am I trying to catch you in points? If
Speaker 2: I'm trying to catch you in points, I really should
Speaker 2: draft for Super High roller Ball plow only. So I
Speaker 2: was throw out some names like Ben Lamb Mode, damn
Speaker 2: any Finnish guy, that's who I should draft if I'm
Speaker 2: trying to Yeah, if I'm trying to catch you on points,
Speaker 2: But if I'm trying to win, all I gotta think
Speaker 2: about this. I got a Super High roller Ball, I
Speaker 2: got two n apts, and I got four events in Texas. Right,
Speaker 2: So I find someone that gives me the most chance
Speaker 2: to get the most results, and I'm not going to
Speaker 2: drop to no limit only guy like David Coleman or
Speaker 2: rom Zobian because I'm only getting two events out of him.
Speaker 1: Hey, Coleman played PLO, yeah.
Speaker 2: But I don't think he.
Speaker 1: Did.
Speaker 2: But I don't think he's going to go to Texas,
Speaker 2: right So, I think if.
Speaker 1: David Coleman, or if anyone out there is listening who's
Speaker 1: in a similar bucket as David Coleman, if you have
Speaker 1: an ounce of card sense, you should be in series.
Speaker 1: All I hear is how insane this these games are.
Speaker 1: The series is like, so you just have to go,
Speaker 1: even if even if you don't think the PLO is
Speaker 1: your best game, or if you think, okay, I might
Speaker 1: not have what it takes. I mean, if I didn't
Speaker 1: have a family, I would be in Texas put it out,
Speaker 1: playing PLO. I would be trying to figure it out, okay,
Speaker 1: I mean cramming the vision GGO trainer and getting my
Speaker 1: ass to Texas. That's what I would be doing.
Speaker 2: I think I've got to guarantee two cashes in Texas already,
Speaker 2: Collop and Kaijer they're going to play every flight of
Speaker 2: the main So I'm going to creep up to you
Speaker 2: on the cash is like, as he's told me, I
Speaker 2: am going to draft. I'm having a lot of issues
Speaker 2: with right now because he hasn't been playing in our studio,
Speaker 2: but these events are not in These events are not
Speaker 2: in our studio. And I know he already told me
Speaker 2: he's probably going to Texas. He also plays no limit
Speaker 2: hold him, he's not playing one hundred K. I'm drafting
Speaker 2: Adam Hendrix. Welcome to the team.
Speaker 1: Wow, Adam Hendricks. I thought you're going to say Sean Deep.
Speaker 2: No, had no chance. He's dead to me too, Adam.
Speaker 1: Where was Adam Hendrix? He played?
Speaker 2: He played a few of the events of his jam. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I think he's, you know, got big, and he wants
Speaker 2: to not play so big. So I think he'll play
Speaker 2: both n APT events. I think he'll if he you know,
Speaker 2: if unless he's lying, he goes to Texas, I think
Speaker 2: I can get a cash. Possibly he could win a
Speaker 2: hi rolla, get some points. So that's my that's Is there.
Speaker 1: Any chance the Finns in that group go to Texas.
Speaker 2: No, I already told them about it. They're like, yeah,
Speaker 2: that we're good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I didn't. I didn't think that they would.
Speaker 1: But I still took a shot on drafting Elis Parson
Speaker 1: and yeah, just because I thought he would have some
Speaker 1: success during the.
Speaker 2: Series Role po you tweeted out about this draft, and
Speaker 2: a few people chimed dating, concluding Bryce, Yucky and Negranova,
Speaker 2: and they said, why didn't you draft Yoni? Well, he
Speaker 2: skipped the last series because he's like having a baby,
Speaker 2: so we couldn't, you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean my thought, little mask on I was
Speaker 1: going to draft one of the Finns with a pretty
Speaker 1: good idea that I was only going to get them
Speaker 1: for PLO series and Super High rollerble Plow and that
Speaker 1: was it. I didn't think that they would stick around
Speaker 1: to play the NPT stuff. They're going to go back.
Speaker 1: They're obviously not an olymic guys anyway, And I didn't
Speaker 1: think they were going to go to Texa just because
Speaker 1: that stuff isn't big enough. Yeah, so I just took
Speaker 1: a shot with one of them. I didn't want to
Speaker 1: allocate two roster spots to that. I mean, I have
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think Niroonie is going to Texas,
Speaker 1: so you know, I'm I'm kind of out there, but
Speaker 1: I'm I'm really banking on Sean Troja in Texas. That
Speaker 1: feels like his jam. Huh okay, I mean that feels
Speaker 1: like his jam. Yeah, I have no idea if Alex
Speaker 1: fox is gonna go to Texas either. But Alex Foxen
Speaker 1: might just win the the twenty five k at n
Speaker 1: apt if he plays that. Who knows. We'll say you
Speaker 1: have Adam Hendrix added to the team. I like your
Speaker 1: side more than I like my side going forward, but
Speaker 1: I'll just have to get first, second, and third and
Speaker 1: one hundred k and and this nonsense. So yeah, all right,

Speaker 1: Once's elite video plan SHARBPLO one hundred thousand dollars buy
Speaker 1: in is it flat one hundred or is one hundred
Speaker 1: and some.
Speaker 2: One hundred and one hundred thousand, five hundred.
Speaker 1: One hundred thousand, five hundred. October twenty four through twenty
Speaker 1: six three days of streaming. Last year had thirty eight entries.
Speaker 1: Jared Blesnik won it all for one million, two hundred
Speaker 1: and ninety two thousand dollars. I told Remco I think
Speaker 1: it was yesterday, maybe they day before on livestream commentary
Speaker 1: that it's going to get forty six entries. Wow, so
Speaker 1: what do you think.
Speaker 2: I think the schedule lines up, Yeah, it lines up
Speaker 2: better obviously, I just want to get more entries, So
Speaker 2: thirty nine I'm good with. I'm actually well, maybe a
Speaker 2: little more pessimistic, to be honest. You know, Dylan Lindy
Speaker 2: said he's not playing. That's one entry gone. Bleslig said,
Speaker 2: I'm not sure, which I think is a lie, but
Speaker 2: which I think is a lie. And he was out there,
Speaker 2: I know, I know, you know. We have a satellite
Speaker 2: going right now, so I've told people before I've always
Speaker 2: cheer for the people not likely to play. So we'll
Speaker 2: get results from that soon and hopefully we get some going.
Speaker 1: On that satellite. Two seats, oh sweet, last year give
Speaker 1: away two seats as well last year, or even lou Garza. Yeah,
Speaker 1: where's lou Garza?
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly where's lu Gaza. I'm wondering, you know, like
Speaker 2: I saw some of the people playing the satellite. I
Speaker 2: don't really want, you know, Ren lean or Jesse Lonis
Speaker 2: to win the satellite because they're probably going to play anyway.
Speaker 2: But Samuel Sternfield, he was in the satellite, Eric saidel
Speaker 2: one of my one of those guys winning, because I
Speaker 2: don't think that we're going to play the hundred on
Speaker 2: their own dime. So yeah, I would just I'm just
Speaker 2: hoping for thirty nine, to be honest. But you know,
Speaker 2: we made some rule changes. The sate is closed, no, no,
Speaker 2: it's yeah, registrations because yeah, it's I think there's final
Speaker 2: five left.
Speaker 1: I think okay, yeah, but last year was twenty entries,
Speaker 1: so we already got an uptick.
Speaker 2: Yeah, true, let's go. Look. We also made some changes
Speaker 2: to the structure. You know, we we'd have day two
Speaker 2: registration this year, so you know, if you're sitting over
Speaker 2: in the East Coast, you can fly in on day
Speaker 2: two in the morning register get in. We didn't do
Speaker 2: that last year, so that's one change that may actually
Speaker 2: help the optick. So hey, man, I just I just
Speaker 2: want more than last year. Just give me thirty nine
Speaker 2: and I'll be a happy camp on.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, come on, all of these guys from
Speaker 1: the Polo Series are going to play, right.
Speaker 2: You would hope, So we hope they will play. We
Speaker 2: hope they will put into the.
Speaker 1: Bullets playing Alex Fox and playing the Grand New Plane,
Speaker 1: simple of playing Haxton Lamb, Tolering Yona, Yuka Mine and
Speaker 1: all playing Nacho for sure, playing.
Speaker 2: Nacho put something on Instagram was like after he busted
Speaker 2: the last the twenty five guys next event is trying
Speaker 2: know something stop.
Speaker 1: Whatever calling him off to him and him and Blessnik
Speaker 1: who might be playing the Triton Invitational thingy together, which
Speaker 1: would just be an absolute great I mean, we're getting
Speaker 1: a couple of new guys. Gruff, Pugh Jones.
Speaker 2: I'm assuming why would.
Speaker 1: He come out here. I mean, I'm assuming he's playing.
Speaker 1: He's a big PLO guy, Martin dam playing. I would
Speaker 1: be curious about Sean Rafael. Did he play this twenty.
Speaker 2: Five g he did? I think yes, And.
Speaker 1: You're getting you're getting Parson, and you're getting Yoka Mine,
Speaker 1: and you're getting Duek, You're getting kron Witter, You're getting
Speaker 1: simple All. You're like that crew, right, you're getting Richard Greicho,
Speaker 1: assuming you're getting Yockey John reared In. I would think yes,
Speaker 1: I mean you get you're getting Maximov. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: I think it's a good, good crew and then I
Speaker 1: think last year we had a couple of guys that
Speaker 1: like didn't play like anything smaller, they only played that.
Speaker 1: Like I've heard Phil Galfond is playing this. Maybe you
Speaker 1: get Jason Kuhn comes out and plays it. Yea, So
Speaker 1: so yeah, I think it'll be a good uh a
Speaker 1: good turn. I'm sticking with forty six.
Speaker 2: Okay, I hope you hit that number.
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's go. And how many re entries can you have?
Speaker 2: One? One re entry? Didn't play it last year, right,
Speaker 2: he did not, and he is playing, so that just
Speaker 2: one one right there?
Speaker 1: So wait, have you given a number? You said you
Speaker 1: want thirty nine? But what is your number?
Speaker 2: Thirty nine?
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh? All right, well, is there any surprises
Speaker 1: of people who are here that might play, any notables
Speaker 1: missing that you know won't play.
Speaker 2: No, I mean, I think we'll kind of wrap with
Speaker 2: off some of the people that we expecting to play.
Speaker 2: Hopefully we get you know, we do get a field
Speaker 2: goalt fund and we do get a Jason Kuhne coming
Speaker 2: in to play this. So I don't know, maybe there's
Speaker 2: some other people that might fly in just for this
Speaker 2: one event, like a tallal who knows. Yeah, I guess

Speaker 1: the Bill Simmons podcast recently, and Bill Simmons is basically
Speaker 1: my idol. But he had kind of a parent corner
Speaker 1: that was a complaint about people who bring their dogs
Speaker 1: to youth sports tournaments. And I have the same complaint
Speaker 1: about people who bring dogs to poker tournaments.
Speaker 2: Yes, I will second that no dogs, no dogs poker.
Speaker 1: Sorry if you have a dog, and I have two dogs,
Speaker 1: as you guys here, okay, so, but I will not
Speaker 1: be bringing them anywhere near poker because I don't think
Speaker 1: that that's right. All right, that's gonna do it for
