1 00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:13,199 Speaker 1: Hello, everyone, Welcome back to a new episode of the 2 00:00:13,279 --> 00:00:17,960 Poker Go Podcast. My name is Donnie Peters, and we 3 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:22,559 are back in the freaking Saddle. I am very sorry 4 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:26,519 for the missed days of the podcast. As you might 5 00:00:26,559 --> 00:00:28,079 be able to tell, as you might be able to hear, 6 00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:30,920 I was battling a bit of a sore throat. I'm 7 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:33,439 still battling a bit of a sore throat, a little 8 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:35,640 bit of a virus or something ripping through me here. 9 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:38,520 So I tried to take a few days off to 10 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:42,719 get some rest before this became worse. I'm going to 11 00:00:42,799 --> 00:00:44,560 power through this episode. 12 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:45,399 Speaker 2: You know. 13 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 1: As I've said before, there's nothing I love more than 14 00:00:49,359 --> 00:00:52,200 doing the podcast, So every time I don't get to 15 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,560 do it, it does really pain me quite a bit. 16 00:00:56,359 --> 00:01:00,439 You can also probably blame my good friend mister mo 17 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:04,519 Nuara aka the Moose, because so he made a deep 18 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,719 run in an eleven hundred dollars plo event at Aria 19 00:01:08,079 --> 00:01:11,120 and he's a good friend of mine. Always got to 20 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:15,079 sweat your friends. I got a piece, So after leaving 21 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,239 the WSOP, I go over there to sweat him. He's 22 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,480 heads up or sorry, he's three handed when I get there. 23 00:01:20,519 --> 00:01:23,200 Then he gets the heads up, he's doing well. Next thing, 24 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,760 you know, it's two fifteen in the morning, and I'm like, man, 25 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:27,680 I really just hate myself. Why am I doing this 26 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,640 to myself? Mo ends up finishing second for forty six 27 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:35,000 thousand dollars. Great score by him, awesome job, but it 28 00:01:35,079 --> 00:01:38,519 really messed up my sleep schedule. You know, I don't 29 00:01:38,519 --> 00:01:40,439 get a lot of sleep during the summer as is, 30 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,640 but then throw this on top of it, and it 31 00:01:44,719 --> 00:01:47,519 probably ultimately did me in because I probably could have 32 00:01:47,599 --> 00:01:49,719 used an extra hour or two of sleep if I 33 00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:51,599 was starting to starting to feel it and get a 34 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:55,480 little bit of a virus or something coming on. Always 35 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,000 go sweat your friends people, no matter what though, even 36 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,599 though if you have to battle through some sickness afterwards. 37 00:02:00,599 --> 00:02:02,959 It's one of the best things to do in poker. 38 00:02:03,239 --> 00:02:06,959 It sharing that success with your friends, you know, and 39 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,039 it should be reciprocal. You know, you go sweat them, 40 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,439 they go sweat you. That's just the absolute way to 41 00:02:11,439 --> 00:02:13,800 do it. It's the best thing to do. So I'm 42 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,560 happy that I did it. Congratulations to Moe for his score, 43 00:02:17,439 --> 00:02:21,960 But yeah, did have some sacrifices that had to be made, 44 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,240 and the pod was up there, so I'm sorry, but 45 00:02:25,319 --> 00:02:25,719 I'm back. 46 00:02:25,879 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 2: Okay. 47 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 1: Now, last time on this feed, we hit on our 48 00:02:30,439 --> 00:02:34,800 tomorrow Rosie winning his fourth bracelet. We had Braydon lou 49 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,080 Kid just out of college, driving across the USA, returning 50 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:41,479 from college, stops in Vegas rips off his first gold bracelet. 51 00:02:42,599 --> 00:02:44,560 So all that's in the past, it's said and done. 52 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:48,280 We've got some catching up to do. But the first 53 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,599 thing that we have to focus on today, I'm gonna 54 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,400 run through all the other winners that we've had, but 55 00:02:53,439 --> 00:03:00,680 we cannot not start with the goat mister Nick Schulman, who, 56 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,120 as of I don't know an hour or so ago, 57 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,840 won the fifteen hundred dollars horse here at the twenty 58 00:03:07,879 --> 00:03:11,360 twenty six World Series of Poker, taking home his eighth 59 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,680 WSP Goald bracelet one hundred and eighty three thousand dollars 60 00:03:16,159 --> 00:03:22,560 for Shulman. I mean, this guy is just absolutely freaking incredible. 61 00:03:22,759 --> 00:03:25,639 He had a second place finish already this summer in 62 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:29,080 that fifteen hundred dollars Baduga event. He battled, battle, battled, 63 00:03:29,159 --> 00:03:34,159 ultimately lost out. He had a fifth place finish. I 64 00:03:34,199 --> 00:03:38,039 believe it was in another tournament he had a the 65 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,960 fifth place finish was in the ten K Dealer's Choice. 66 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,039 He had an eighteenth place finish in the twenty five 67 00:03:45,159 --> 00:03:47,960 k Nolan at hold him, you know, so some close 68 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:51,280 calls already, some very close calls with those second place 69 00:03:51,319 --> 00:03:53,680 in that fifth place finish, but Nick is able to 70 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:57,039 get the job done. In the fifteen hundred dollars horse there, 71 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:01,479 he topped seven hundred and eighty entry to get the win. 72 00:04:02,319 --> 00:04:04,599 He told Poker News afterwards that he feels like he's 73 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,919 just hitting his prime. And that's kind of a scary 74 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,000 thing to think about if you're somebody like a Phil Helmuth. 75 00:04:12,039 --> 00:04:14,599 You know, yeah, Phil Hellmuth has got a nice lead 76 00:04:14,639 --> 00:04:18,319 with seventeen goal bracelets. But I mean Nick doesn't look 77 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,279 like he's slowing down. And if he's going to be 78 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:23,160 making final tables at this rate, with how good he is, 79 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,040 with how well versed he is in all the different games, 80 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,959 i mean, watch out at the top of that bracelet leaderboard. 81 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:35,079 Absolutely watch out after Nick one. I've really never seen 82 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:40,959 him so elated and excited and being outgoing about the win. 83 00:04:41,399 --> 00:04:43,759 You know, I've seen several of his bracelet wins. I've 84 00:04:43,759 --> 00:04:46,600 seen plenty of other tournament wins of his especially those 85 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,040 inside the studio, but this one, I don't know. It 86 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,600 just seemed like it hit a little bit different for Nick. 87 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,639 I don't have an interview for you guys on this 88 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,879 episode of the podcast, but we did sit down with 89 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:03,399 Nick afterwards. It was myself and my videographer Antonio Abrego, 90 00:05:03,439 --> 00:05:05,360 and we got some really good stuff with Nick. So 91 00:05:05,399 --> 00:05:07,519 we're going to be releasing that at some point over 92 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:11,720 the weekend. I was very open, he was definitely very happy, 93 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,920 but he got into why he still does this and 94 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,560 what's kind of driving him. So stay tuned for that. 95 00:05:17,639 --> 00:05:20,279 You know, it'll get released on all the different social 96 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,639 media outlets for Poker go so that is coming.

Maybe he just 133 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,839 had a baby, but either way, baby run good help 134 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:44,839 propel Alsop here to his largest career live tournament score 135 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:47,959 now at the final table. If you guys watched it, 136 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,399 I know they did some checking. I'm not sure exactly 137 00:07:50,399 --> 00:07:53,759 how much they showed of it, but he cracked aces 138 00:07:53,879 --> 00:07:57,959 twice en route to victory, and both times he cracked 139 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:01,680 aces it was against sale to Carlo De Carlo ended 140 00:08:01,759 --> 00:08:05,040 up finishing in second place on the first one. The 141 00:08:05,079 --> 00:08:09,079 first time that Alceup cracked to Carlo's aces, it was 142 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,240 with five players left. Alsop was all from the button 143 00:08:12,279 --> 00:08:15,079 with King Queen of diamonds to Carlo had aces. In 144 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:16,959 the big blind it came king nine to five to 145 00:08:17,079 --> 00:08:20,920 eight king on the river, so trips there on the 146 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,040 river for alceup. The second time came a bit later 147 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,879 during heads up play. The money got all in on 148 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:32,360 eight six four two diamond flop. Alsop had seven six 149 00:08:32,399 --> 00:08:36,519 of spades, so middle pair and a straight draw to 150 00:08:36,639 --> 00:08:38,639 Carlo had the aces. He also had the ace of 151 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,480 diamonds in hand, so back to a flustraw as well, 152 00:08:42,159 --> 00:08:46,840 turn jack river six for alsup, So once again trips 153 00:08:46,879 --> 00:08:49,960 on the river for alceup to crack the aces of 154 00:08:50,159 --> 00:08:53,399 Di Carlo. From there, you know, also battled his way 155 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,759 into the chip lead, but the lead did swing back 156 00:08:55,799 --> 00:08:58,200 and forth a few different times. On the final hand, 157 00:08:59,039 --> 00:09:01,519 it was luck on the side of alsup once again 158 00:09:01,799 --> 00:09:04,879 is a seven off beating to Carlo's He's king off 159 00:09:04,919 --> 00:09:08,200 as seven hit the flop and that was that. So 160 00:09:08,519 --> 00:09:11,759 hard not to feel for sale to Carlo here, you know, 161 00:09:11,799 --> 00:09:14,159 getting your aces cracked by the same player twice in 162 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,919 the fashion that he did, ultimately getting his money in 163 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:18,879 on the final hand with very much the best of 164 00:09:18,919 --> 00:09:21,679 it doesn't go his way. Yes, there is luck and poker. 165 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,960 We all know that, we all believe it's predominantly skilled 166 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,480 with a little bit of luck, but it is painful 167 00:09:27,759 --> 00:09:29,759 when it doesn't go your way like it didn't for 168 00:09:30,039 --> 00:09:33,159 Sail to Carlo. So Alsup takes home one million, three 169 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,399 hundred and two thousand dollars for the win to Carlo, 170 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,720 nine hundred k for second. Then you had John Ripnik, 171 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:43,840 Aaron Mazzy, Matthew Miller, Pierce McKellar, Kevin Eister, and Nicholas 172 00:09:43,879 --> 00:09:53,879 Angelou rounding out to the final table. Another player that 173 00:09:53,919 --> 00:09:57,399 I did want to mention from this event is Andrew Moreno. 174 00:09:57,840 --> 00:09:59,679 One of the things I think is important to do 175 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:03,320 in all poker coverage, especially at the World Series of Poker, 176 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:07,279 is to really try and showcase all different sides of 177 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,440 the game, not not just you know, the winner's photos, 178 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,519 the bracelet ceremonies, the feel good stories, all that sort 179 00:10:13,519 --> 00:10:16,080 of stuff, because there is the other side of the 180 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:20,519 grind that does you know, come up, especially during the 181 00:10:20,519 --> 00:10:22,879 World Series when the spotlight is so big on poker 182 00:10:22,919 --> 00:10:25,159 and when there was so much poker being played in 183 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:29,840 a relatively small window. Moreno this year got eleventh out 184 00:10:29,879 --> 00:10:32,519 of the almost twelve thousand entries for one hundred and 185 00:10:32,519 --> 00:10:36,399 twenty thousand dollars. He's had a ton of deep runs 186 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,679 in this specific tournament. So eleventh place this year for 187 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,080 one hundred and twenty k. Last year he got one 188 00:10:42,159 --> 00:10:45,679 hundred and twenty third out of nine hundred and twenty entries, 189 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,000 the year before that seven hundred and forty seventh out 190 00:10:49,039 --> 00:10:53,480 of eighty seven hundred entries. The first year post COVID 191 00:10:53,519 --> 00:10:56,320 SO twenty twenty one, Moreno got two hundred and eighty 192 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,200 seventh out of thirty five hundred and twenty entries in 193 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,600 two ninth team forty ninth place out of more than 194 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,080 six thousand entries, and then back in twenty sixteen he 195 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,000 had a final table run that ultimately ended in sixth 196 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:13,440 place out of six nine hundred and twenty seven players. 197 00:11:13,879 --> 00:11:16,559 So now you know the eleventh place finished out of 198 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:20,279 almost twelve thousand entries. That's that's a solid six figure score, 199 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:22,799 one hundred and twenty thousand dollars in the bank for 200 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:28,559 Andrew ma Reno. Incredible accomplishment, right, But when you're a professional, 201 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,360 and a seasoned, experienced professional like Moreno is and somebody 202 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,759 who's trying to win the whole thing. You get that close, 203 00:11:35,799 --> 00:11:37,799 you probably start to feel it. I'm sure that it 204 00:11:37,879 --> 00:11:42,120 can also be incredibly painful in a way. We were 205 00:11:42,159 --> 00:11:45,879 following Moreno, you know, throughout the later stages of this tournament, 206 00:11:46,399 --> 00:11:48,399 and he was kind enough to, you know, kind of 207 00:11:48,399 --> 00:11:50,279 close the book on it all. You know. He joined 208 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:54,399 us afterwards for a really thoughtful conversation about perspective. He 209 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,399 touched on his process, why he still loves the game, 210 00:11:57,799 --> 00:12:00,960 you know, despite having another mirror, and you're missed like this, 211 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,120 So let's hear from Andrew Marino. 212 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 3: Now, all right, Andrew, close call to the Monster Stack 213 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,840 final table. But again, I know poker has obviously it's 214 00:12:10,919 --> 00:12:13,240 ups and its down. Just talk to me about what 215 00:12:13,279 --> 00:12:14,519 you're feeling in this post. 216 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 4: I feel like I want to fly home right now 217 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,759 and see my family and my kids. So they're supposed 218 00:12:20,799 --> 00:12:24,279 to come and see me. I came for a few 219 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:27,279 weeks by myself, and I just missed them terribly. It's 220 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,240 it's the only thing I think that'll make me feel better. 221 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,799 So I'm gonna consider. I'm going to sleep on it, 222 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,039 and I might leave in the morning or I don't know. 223 00:12:35,159 --> 00:12:35,799 Speaker 2: I'm not sure. 224 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 3: When you bust aternament like that close to the final table. 225 00:12:39,639 --> 00:12:41,480 You know, you walk away with a six figure pay 226 00:12:41,519 --> 00:12:43,799 day on one hand, which is a really good score, 227 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,879 but also you know you're someone who I think prides 228 00:12:46,919 --> 00:12:48,879 yourself on winning, right, you know when you get to 229 00:12:48,919 --> 00:12:52,080 that stage, how does that mind shift shift and to 230 00:12:52,159 --> 00:12:55,440 be like, Okay, now is time. Now I have my shot, 231 00:12:55,759 --> 00:12:57,679 I'm ten spots away or whatever it is, can actually 232 00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:58,440 winning this whole thing? 233 00:12:59,240 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 2: Yeah? 234 00:12:59,519 --> 00:13:01,919 Speaker 4: I don't really think about how far away I am 235 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,799 when I'm in a tournament. I'm mostly just focus on 236 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:09,399 all the factors at the table. Who's in the stack distribution? 237 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,440 What should my strategy be based on the chip distribution? 238 00:13:15,639 --> 00:13:19,200 You know, there will be the thought of can I 239 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:24,720 or should I position myself to ladder or potentially get 240 00:13:24,759 --> 00:13:27,320 a big stack and try to become the chip leader, 241 00:13:27,759 --> 00:13:32,000 So I kind of think about It's weird, like I 242 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,000 didn't really think at all about the final table, not 243 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,080 I didn't think about the money or anything. 244 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:37,519 Speaker 2: I was mostly just trying to. 245 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,919 Speaker 4: Just like really lean into the moment and just kind 246 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:44,559 of feel what was happening at the table. 247 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:47,679 Speaker 3: You've had a sixth place finish in this Sponsor Stack 248 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:50,000 event before, and a few other deep runs as well. 249 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:54,360 This time around almost twelve thousand entries. When did it 250 00:13:54,399 --> 00:13:56,720 start to feel Okay, maybe I'm going to start making 251 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:57,840 a run, Maybe it's. 252 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,200 Speaker 2: Going to happen again. Yeah. 253 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 4: So, going on day three, I lost half my stack 254 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,799 on the first hand, and I realized that if I 255 00:14:05,879 --> 00:14:11,360 just kind of play solid and not get into some 256 00:14:11,399 --> 00:14:13,519 of these close spots that I had been getting into, 257 00:14:13,919 --> 00:14:17,240 people were giving me extra lives. Basically, they were so 258 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,360 many mistakes that were being made, and I was able 259 00:14:19,399 --> 00:14:22,519 to just kind of extend my tournament so many different 260 00:14:22,559 --> 00:14:26,960 times just from people making errors. And then I at 261 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:30,919 the end of the third night, I caught some great hands, 262 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:35,759 made a wild bluff, got caught, and realized my little 263 00:14:35,799 --> 00:14:38,039 bit of equity to win the pot. And at that 264 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:42,039 point I thought, okay, something might happen here. 265 00:14:42,879 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 3: Ten years ago is when you came at sixth past 266 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,440 board And now, how have you changed as a player. 267 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's weird. I think I feel so much more 268 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,519 in control now. I don't even think I'm a very 269 00:14:55,519 --> 00:15:01,799 aggressive or loose player. Most people think I am. I 270 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,759 probably am. I just feel so in control now, whereas 271 00:15:04,799 --> 00:15:07,639 before it was I was a lot more feel based 272 00:15:07,759 --> 00:15:10,039 it's like I don't think this guy has it, or 273 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:14,120 I feel like this guy's overdoing it, And now I'm 274 00:15:14,159 --> 00:15:17,080 a lot more rooted in theory and I feel more 275 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:18,080 calm in general. 276 00:15:19,759 --> 00:15:21,799 Speaker 3: Do you think that's because of how much you put 277 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:23,720 into study. I mean, I saw on social media the 278 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,879 other day he said, this is why I study so much, 279 00:15:25,879 --> 00:15:28,840 so that I'm constantly aware of like what the theory is, 280 00:15:28,879 --> 00:15:31,039 what ranges are playing against, what ranges. So has that 281 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,559 comfortability come from all that practice that you put in 282 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:35,639 off the film? 283 00:15:35,879 --> 00:15:38,799 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think putting in all the practice off the 284 00:15:38,799 --> 00:15:41,360 felt it's It's one of those things I always thought 285 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,919 when I look at I always thought of a guy 286 00:15:43,919 --> 00:15:46,320 like Kobe Bryant. I always wanted to be like that. 287 00:15:46,759 --> 00:15:48,639 I wanted to be the guy that was going to 288 00:15:48,679 --> 00:15:49,679 outwork everyone else. 289 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:50,159 Speaker 2: And just. 290 00:15:51,919 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 4: As long as I knew that I was in the 291 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:56,759 gym sweating my balls off, like working harder than everyone else, 292 00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:00,519 if I was losing in the game, I really care 293 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:01,960 because I knew that I was just going to go 294 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,320 do that over and over again, and I just did 295 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,679 it for me to have peace. That way, I could 296 00:16:07,279 --> 00:16:12,000 have bad variants, bad results and still feel okay, about. 297 00:16:11,799 --> 00:16:16,519 Speaker 3: It's going to grind. About studying poker over and over again, 298 00:16:16,639 --> 00:16:18,840 doing it for so many hours, Like how do you 299 00:16:18,879 --> 00:16:22,080 find the motivation to just keep doing. 300 00:16:21,879 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 2: I actually enjoy it now and I switch it up. 301 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,679 Speaker 4: I have a couple different ways that I study, and 302 00:16:26,759 --> 00:16:29,320 I think, you know, it's kind of like going to 303 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,720 the gym. Some people, you know, they like getting on 304 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,559 the peloton, some people like kickboxing classes, some people like 305 00:16:35,679 --> 00:16:38,519 hot yoga. I think you just have to find a 306 00:16:38,559 --> 00:16:42,519 way for you to study that feels enjoyable. I will 307 00:16:42,559 --> 00:16:45,720 say that I think there needs to be active studying. 308 00:16:46,159 --> 00:16:48,360 Enjoyable study can be you know, watching a Poker Go 309 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:52,120 final table for me and having a computer up and 310 00:16:52,159 --> 00:16:55,440 just kind of looking at things, but actually doing active 311 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,639 studying where I'm you know, looking at hand. 312 00:16:58,559 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 2: Ranges or even some solves. 313 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:02,559 Speaker 4: Because I think it's real easy to like watch a 314 00:17:02,559 --> 00:17:05,319 training video or listen to a podcast and all that 315 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:08,880 can help too. But I just think there's definitely there 316 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:12,319 needs to be an emphasis on really doing an active studying. 317 00:17:13,319 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 3: This tournament had a lot of I guess extracurricular things 318 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,039 going on. You guys are moved up onto the stage, 319 00:17:19,039 --> 00:17:20,920 you get moved to a stream table at one point. 320 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,119 You know, a lot of shuffling like that. There's bright lights, 321 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:26,400 there's cameras. Now at this stage of your career, are 322 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,559 you kind of imputed to that sort of stuff and 323 00:17:28,759 --> 00:17:30,799 you just get in your comfort zone and lock in. 324 00:17:31,599 --> 00:17:34,039 Speaker 4: Yeah, I actually like it because I think it's a 325 00:17:34,039 --> 00:17:36,799 competitive advantage for me because I've played on so many 326 00:17:36,799 --> 00:17:41,319 stream tables, and I know what that can do to 327 00:17:41,319 --> 00:17:44,240 someone if they're not used to it. Not just you know, 328 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:48,160 the lights and you know the pressure, but just the 329 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,319 fear that comes along with making a mistake and having 330 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:51,240 other people see it. 331 00:17:52,519 --> 00:17:55,119 Speaker 2: So I think people are going to perform worse. 332 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,640 Speaker 4: And I like it because I write down pretty much 333 00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:00,960 all my hands anyway, So if I'm gonna stream, it's 334 00:18:01,039 --> 00:18:01,960 just less work for me. 335 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,039 Speaker 2: I can just you know, I don't have to write 336 00:18:04,079 --> 00:18:05,160 down anything, So it's good. 337 00:18:06,039 --> 00:18:08,359 Speaker 3: How do you balance a feeling after a run like 338 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:12,960 this between satisfaction because ultimately you did have a nice 339 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,599 financial sport, but also maybe that disappointment of coming up 340 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:17,519 when it was short. 341 00:18:17,279 --> 00:18:18,039 Speaker 5: Of the ultimate part. 342 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:22,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, disappointment in poker is you know something that I 343 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:26,039 think I would be really interested to hear other people 344 00:18:26,079 --> 00:18:27,119 talk about it because I. 345 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 2: It's such a hard thing. 346 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,839 Speaker 4: Anyone out there watching poker or watching this, they probably 347 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:38,559 enjoy poker. They've gone to the casino, lost a big pot, 348 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:44,240 and the emotion behind that and the feelings behind it, 349 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:49,240 it's hard to articulate. For me personally, I think I've 350 00:18:49,279 --> 00:18:51,920 done a really good job of learning how to be 351 00:18:52,079 --> 00:18:54,079 gentle with myself when I feel like I did make 352 00:18:54,079 --> 00:18:57,160 a mistake, and I have a lot of compassion and 353 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,799 empathy for myself because I work really hard. I think 354 00:18:59,839 --> 00:19:02,480 if if I didn't work hard, I would have a 355 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:07,200 lot less empathy for myself because I yeah, I think 356 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,400 that preparedness really allows me to be a lot kinder 357 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:10,960 to myself. 358 00:19:11,559 --> 00:19:14,400 Speaker 3: What keeps the fire alive to keep coming back, because 359 00:19:14,559 --> 00:19:17,400 you know, in poker terms, you can kind of get 360 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,119 your teeth kicked in a lot of it sometimes and 361 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,440 it's not always super fun, but other times it is 362 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,119 the lady right.

He told Poker News 552 00:29:21,359 --> 00:29:25,640 after before this year, I mostly played PLO. I tested 553 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:28,039 the waters last year in some of the fifteen hundred 554 00:29:28,039 --> 00:29:30,839 dollars mixed games. I studied a little bit, and it's 555 00:29:30,839 --> 00:29:34,200 fun to play them. So this one feels different. It 556 00:29:34,279 --> 00:29:37,640 feels and it feels fun. It's basically what he said. 557 00:29:38,279 --> 00:29:39,920 It's always great to see players, you know, kind of 558 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,079 branch out to other games, and you know, it seems 559 00:29:42,079 --> 00:29:44,720 like Weiss has a knack for things. I always say, 560 00:29:44,759 --> 00:29:47,079 you know, if you if you just are good at poker, 561 00:29:47,119 --> 00:29:49,599 even if it's just one variant, you just probably have 562 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:51,519 that type of mind that you can probably learn other 563 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,039 variants pretty well and pick them up at least to 564 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:57,519 a capacity where you're able to perform well in tournaments. 565 00:29:57,559 --> 00:29:59,160 And then maybe you know, you catch a hot streak. 566 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:01,319 Next thing you know, you know you're in the Winter circle. 567 00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:04,079 So why he's taking home one hundred and thirty three 568 00:30:04,079 --> 00:30:07,319 thousand dollars for his win. Omar Ma Mood took second 569 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,960 for eighty eight thousand. Ronnie barta good friend of mine, 570 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:13,319 fifty nine k for third place. There Pads.

He won the twenty 579 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,759 five hundred dollars six Max Limit Hold Him back in 580 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:39,839 twenty twelve. He has a few other Ubasity final tables 581 00:30:39,839 --> 00:30:43,200 in Limit Hold Them similar to Andrew Moreno before in 582 00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:45,720 the Monster Stack, we were following Ronnie Barda. We had 583 00:30:45,759 --> 00:30:48,640 him miked up, you know, so after we busted, we 584 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:50,440 put an interview out there on social media. You guys 585 00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:52,759 can check that out on the Coca Goro channels. But 586 00:30:52,839 --> 00:30:55,279 after he busted, you know, we talked with him a 587 00:30:55,319 --> 00:30:57,440 little bit and I wanted to just pull the clip 588 00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,799 on why he loves Limit Hold Him so much, because 589 00:31:00,079 --> 00:31:03,119 it to many it's dying game, but to Ronnie Barto, 590 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:05,920 it's very much alive, and he even wants more of it. 591 00:31:06,039 --> 00:31:09,319 So here's Ronnie Barta talking about why he loves Limit 592 00:31:09,359 --> 00:31:10,359 hold Them so much. 593 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 5: First of all, the people that play Limit Hold Them 594 00:31:13,039 --> 00:31:15,200 are just quite characters. I mean, obviously the whole poker 595 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,359 world are full of characters, but in a sense, mixed 596 00:31:17,359 --> 00:31:20,079 games and Limit hold Them bring a special crew. And 597 00:31:20,559 --> 00:31:24,359 you know, yeah, I've been playing this game since two 598 00:31:24,359 --> 00:31:28,359 thousand and three, you know, and going back and forth 599 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:29,960 from Limit hold Them and no Limit hold Them, Limit 600 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:33,440 hold Them, no Limit hold Them. I just love Limit 601 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:35,519 hold Him. I don't know I did that didn't really 602 00:31:35,519 --> 00:31:39,720 answer what your question. I would say it's a combination 603 00:31:39,799 --> 00:31:43,680 of like just getting thin value and making big folds. 604 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:48,359 And you know, they change his format to seven handed, 605 00:31:48,359 --> 00:31:49,160 which is pretty cool. 606 00:31:49,599 --> 00:31:49,799 Speaker 2: You know. 607 00:31:49,799 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 5: I told Jack Effel in my last interview. I didn't 608 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,440 tell him personally, but to you guys, I mean, getting 609 00:31:54,519 --> 00:31:57,000 rid of the six match broke my heart. I love 610 00:31:57,079 --> 00:32:00,359 Limit Hold Him because it's like it's just war like 611 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:04,559 check raising faces on the river, getting thin value, you know, 612 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,799 just outclassing your opponents, and it's a it's a game 613 00:32:07,839 --> 00:32:11,079 of intuition, and a lot of people underestimate Limit hold Them. 614 00:32:11,079 --> 00:32:13,119 They're like you can't bluff and Limit hold Them. But 615 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,400 there's so much bluffing going on and limit hold Them. 616 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:19,599 There's so much thin value and it really strengthens your 617 00:32:19,599 --> 00:32:21,759 hand reading abilities when it comes to playing no limit 618 00:32:22,079 --> 00:32:25,000 because you see so many hands go to showdown and 619 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,079 I know the bets are for men, but you get 620 00:32:28,079 --> 00:32:31,559 to feel how a player reacts when they actually make 621 00:32:31,599 --> 00:32:34,079 their hands and they're You're on the river a lot 622 00:32:34,119 --> 00:32:34,920 in limit hold Them. 623 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:35,839 Speaker 2: So fuck. 624 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:37,920 Speaker 5: I just love the game.

And 729 00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:21,079 that's just freaking incredible that Benny Glaser's got Damny Demn bracelets. 730 00:38:21,119 --> 00:38:23,400 I mean, this is another absolute freaking crusher out there. 731 00:38:24,519 --> 00:38:28,960 The fifteen hundred dollars pot limit Omaha is down to 732 00:38:30,119 --> 00:38:32,960 fifteen players from two thousand, five hundred and eighty one. 733 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:37,360 Jason zip Fell is up on top. Jason, I forget 734 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,320 what does he go by. He goes by another name. 735 00:38:40,519 --> 00:38:40,840 Speaker 2: Man. 736 00:38:41,639 --> 00:38:45,159 Speaker 1: I should know this because he played on cash Flow. 737 00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:48,280 He's played on Venetian Poker Live. I forget his name. 738 00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:49,960 He plays on the table one game all the time. 739 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:53,320 He's definitely a cash game player. Last year he needed 740 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:56,199 to finish in a certain place in a Venetian poker 741 00:38:56,199 --> 00:38:58,159 tournament to get unstuck for the summer, and he ended 742 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:01,199 up doing it, so pretty crazy. There didn't even know 743 00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:03,599 he really played plo. But here he is chip leading 744 00:39:03,639 --> 00:39:06,119 the final fifteen entering the final day of play. Here 745 00:39:06,159 --> 00:39:09,159 Will Givens is in second place. Pretty crazy story about 746 00:39:09,199 --> 00:39:12,920 Will Givens. So he joined my table in the seventeen 747 00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:15,960 hundred dollars US circuit event and he starts talking about 748 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,000 how it's his first time back at the WSB, his 749 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:19,960 first tournament back was that one that thereas to be 750 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:22,840 in four years and we're like, okay, why He says 751 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:25,559 he was banned from the World Series of Boker or 752 00:39:25,599 --> 00:39:29,599 from all series properties or something. Something happened in the pit. 753 00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:31,920 He got accused of something. He said that he didn't 754 00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,840 do it. It was a whole thing. He explained that 755 00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:38,480 he fought with Caesars. Or he tried tried to write letters, 756 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:40,159 which they always say, you just have to write a letter. 757 00:39:40,199 --> 00:39:41,360 Do you have to write a letter? He kept trying 758 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:43,960 to write letters, nothing ever happened. Finally he got a 759 00:39:44,039 --> 00:39:46,639 lawyer and I said, oh, you know, and he said, yeah, 760 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:47,840 you just have to get a lawyer. I said, so, 761 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:49,800 what was the time between when you got a lawyer 762 00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:53,440 and when you got you know, allowed to come back? 763 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,320 And he's like three weeks. I was like, oh damn. 764 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:57,719 So you basically sat out almost a full four years 765 00:39:57,960 --> 00:39:58,840 and all you had to do was. 766 00:39:58,800 --> 00:39:59,519 Speaker 2: Get a lawyer. 767 00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:03,760 Speaker 1: For whatever reason, the lawyer was able to work the 768 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:07,679 right channels, make the right case, whatever it was. But 769 00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:10,760 it worked out for Will Gibbons and he is now 770 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:12,480 back at the World Series of Poker and here he 771 00:40:12,599 --> 00:40:16,039 is two to fifteen in this fifteen hundred dollars plo 772 00:40:16,079 --> 00:40:18,599 of and Max Coleman is also in there. Nick Unie 773 00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:21,199 is in there as well. These guys are vying for 774 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:25,719 a four hundred and forty thousand dollars first place prize. 775 00:40:26,039 --> 00:40:29,639 The five thousand dollars Seniors high Roller kicked off today 776 00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:31,960 and won't get too much into that, still very early, 777 00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:35,079 and then the fifteen hundred dollars raz also kicked off, 778 00:40:35,199 --> 00:40:37,000 also not going to get too much into this one, 779 00:40:37,119 --> 00:40:40,000 because well, you know, it's early day one and it's 780 00:40:40,079 --> 00:40:43,800 ras and that's that. I think my umble voice made 781 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:46,440 it through. I'm not really sure. It feels like it's 782 00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:48,920 going in and out. Hopefully it sounded good for you guys, 783 00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:53,239 and hopefully we got this one done and I'll try 784 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:55,239 and get some more rest over these coming days, keep 785 00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:58,079 bringing you these guys, these pods.
